Do they not understand that slavery was not an internship.

What bullshit is this? 500 fucking years, if that was the case, and slaves did learn these skills, then why did it take 500 years for them to get out of that situation? This is how they have always treated our history, they dilute, spin, and change the context. Until the lion learns to read and write, his story will forever be told from the hunter's perspective. Well, now the vast majority of us black folks are educated. fuck off @JesseBWatters

They could have learned those skills as free human beings without going through the awful experience of slavery.

I wonder if he would make the same argument about the Jews in concentration camps?

Where is his mother when we need her? She needs to be on speed dial and this hate stoking and whitewashing for ratings prick needs some soap in his mouth.

🚨 An LGBTQ youth nonprofit says “youth protection” is why sex work isn’t decriminalized, then outlines how to “up” youth sex-trade skills like branding and digital security. Today at a Sex Work Policy Briefing hosted by Brooklyn College professor Alex Vitale, Nadia Swanson (Ali Forney Center) argued: “youth are often used as the reason why we can't, you know, decriminalize sex work… when In reality, like, the sex workers do not need our saving.” She then extended that framing to minors: “We are not their saviors, and that means youth too, right?” Swanson also said that even when young people are in “risky situations or unsafe situations,” “it is not our job or our part of our code of ethics to stop someone from doing what they're doing.” She added: “Our ability to let them have autonomy in any of those stages is what is going to help young people.” She described “the skills that they gain by being in the sex trades” as “income generating skills,” arguing they can be “transferable,” and added: “we can up those skills in digital security, in financial literacy, and safety planning, in branding.” “We can up those skills in digital security, in financial literacy, and safety planning, in branding.” Finally, she framed the aim as ensuring “autonomy and choice in the sex trades if that's their choice.” This language is especially jarring given the Ali Forney Center’s stated mission to “protect LGBTQ youth from the harm of homelessness and to support them in becoming safe and independent as they move from adolescence to adulthood.”
