Claims of anti-Black racism in revolutionary countries should be treated with great skepticism. This trope is used as a tool to target countries for regime change plots and other attacks. While in this country, Black people's right to speak is proscribed and can even be prosecuted.

This has actually been something weighing on my mind for a long time now. You talk about leaving, trying to get to Cuba, or Venezuela, or Colombia, or insert a nation you'd roll bones on being better than Amerika; and here comes a paternalistic cracker on their redwinged blackbird dive-bombing shit "you know they're racist as shit, yeah? you know they don't like Blacks over there, yeah? you know you're better off right here
where we can keep our thumb on youyeah?"Next time the mayonnaisians hit you with that, just ask one simple question: "How are you any better? How is your nation any better?" Because it really ain't.
If you can afford to cut a check right now, there's proper Black socialists staring down the barrel of carceral slavery; hit their legal fund. Or if not theirs, hit the ATL Solidarity Fund.
