Black people are our own biggest problem. We need to stop electing incompetent people simply because they’re black and democrat. We need to focus on ourselves and our culture. Not the system, the white man and racism. It’s us.

RFK Jr Robert F. Kennedy Jr whitesplaining how to raise Black children to be “resilient”  It is the height of arrogance and privilege for Robert F. Kennedy Jr. to stand before a room full of Black people and lecture us on racism and how to raise our children to be “resilient.” Kennedy suggested that we could “never end racism” and advised that Black people should focus on making our youth resilient enough to “shake it off.” He went on to suggest that Black children need mentors and role models in barbershops, beauty shops, and restaurants, and that they need a good education to understand they are not the problem—that the racist person is. Let me be clear: Black people in America have endured 400 years of enslavement, rape, murder, brutalization, dehumanization, redlining, mass incarceration, systemic poverty, judicial killings by police, and more. We have proven to be the most resilient people on the planet. We don’t need lectures from a white man about resilience, especially not one who has benefited from the very systems that continue to oppress us. To add insult to injury, Kennedy then compared anti-Catholic sentiment surrounding his uncle, JFK, to the ongoing atrocities Black people have faced for centuries. The audacity of equating slurs and prejudice against Catholics in the 1960s with the multigenerational trauma inflicted on Black communities reveals a profound ignorance and a dismissal of our experiences. Privilege is standing in a place of safety and comfort, insulated from the realities of systemic racism, and telling the oppressed to simply “shake it off.” It is offensive, condescending, and utterly tone-deaf. Black parents have been teaching their children resilience for generations out of necessity. What we need are structural changes that dismantle racism—not lectures on how to cope with it. #CheckYourPrivilege #RacialJustice #BlackResilience #RFKJr
