White America Is worried and Confused with the silence of Black people

Hinzugefügt: 2026-05-30

[00:00:00]Black women mostly didn't show up to the protests, but they did so mostly for their own safety. And the thing that I have to say about that is first of all, I completely understand why they didn't physically show up to the protest.

[00:00:12]>> Black Women's Project 2025 is to rest.

[00:00:15]We've done all we can. We've done all we can. I said in my last video that community is the answer >> that I wasn't a part of. But I didn't know the black community turned against us.

[00:00:25]>> So, white people will never leave black people alone. And I'm going to tell you why. White society's obsession with [music] black people isn't new. It's centuries old. If you think about slavery, colonialism, [music] and exploitation from the start, white wealth in America was built off the backs of black bodies. Sugar, cotton, tobacco, rice. This wasn't just economics. It was a system where white people's very identity was shaped around controlling and owning [music] and watching black bodies. But here's the wild contradiction in all of this, right? while trying to dehumanize us.

[00:00:59]White culture has always been obsessed with us, right?

[00:01:02]>> So, I'm going to tell you what's going on in America right now, but most of y'all are not going to like this. We are literally in a let my people go moment.

[00:01:11]Moses versus Pharaoh. I'm talking about plagues and all because after 400 years of oppression and marginalization, the black community rose up in 2020 to demand justice from Pharaoh. It came with a plague called COVID that left over a million people dead. Still, we did not listen. Instead, we hardened our hearts. So, more plagues have followed.

[00:01:35]The second plague was the big lie, the loss of truth. The third plague was January 6th, the loss of the rule of law. The fourth plague, the plague of tariffs, the loss of economic stability.

[00:01:47]And the fifth plague, the plague of ICE raids, the loss of human dignity and decency. I don't want to hear anything about POC solidarity ever again when non-black people of color has shown black people over and over again that they will always show up for that white proximity in those polls. Antilackness is one hell of a drug and white people really have y'all non-black people of color hooked on it.

[00:02:13]>> Black Americans do have the right to say that we're minding our own business.

[00:02:17]Black Americans have done enough. Okay.

[00:02:21]Black Americans don't have to be the voice for every single group and every other person. And black Americans are allowed to be tired to be like, "You know what? Y'all figure it out. We kept we we told y'all what to do. You didn't want to listen. Whatever." Blah blah blah.

[00:02:36]>> They always say that silence means weakness. But right now, black people have gone incognito. They've gone silence. And white America is worried with that silence. You know, history has shown us that silence can also mean observation. Silence can also mean strategy. Silence can mean patience and preparation. Now, black people have gone silence and this is a threat to the system because now they cannot ignite the feelings of black people. They cannot monetize from the feelings of black people. That's how it is. Let's watch these clips and then I'm coming back with more.

[00:03:09]>> I just came across this video clip and I absolutely love it. This shows you how tired black women are from holding ourselves back. It's about a minute and a half long, but these black women were taking these white women clean out. Just watch this video clip.

[00:03:22]>> Right. So, the reality is whether you breathe or not, baby, we're the standard. And that's what it is. The beginning and the end starts with the black mother. So, regardless, whether you want to admit it or not, I think for the both of you, you stay on topic because what you just spoke about had nothing to do what we're talking about.

[00:03:38]>> Absolutely.

[00:03:40]Let me let me land. So the reality is for the both of you to sit on the side of me and talk about aggression. What is the difference in what you're doing and what we're doing right now having a conversation and yet we're the one you just literally called out both of these black women on the panel and you sit here with your attitude and you have a problem but you tell them that they're aggressive right so much. So as a black woman we're going to talk about history and we're going to talk about facts. So the moment that you realize that lower your voice of black women or uh black people in general just acting wild and out dressing like hoes ghetto ghetto ratchet behavior and people are calling it out, not just white people. When we're talking about different groups being vilified, if we're looking at the history of America and who has done the most violent crimes, it's your people. Um, in regards to the way black women are, >> I'm going to continue speaking, but I'm going to make sure that you're not intimidated right now, are you? I want to make sure you're comfortable because as a black woman, that's what we have to do in order to have a platform, right?

[00:04:42]In order to be able to speak uninterrupted, you have to make sure that you make somebody else feel comfortable. So, we continue to be the most educated group of people in this country. And if we're looking at this panel, that's also evident.

[00:04:54]>> All right, Carmen, let's hear from you.

[00:04:55]We'll talk to you about that. Hey, white people. Let's talk. Sometimes I forget that white people aren't as engaged with black creators on this app and in the world um as I am. So, there was something over the weekend that I thought everybody was very well aware of, but I'm understanding that that's not the case. I was talking to my mom today and she and my brother went to a protest on April 5th um to protest Trump and all of the things that have been happening um for the last couple of months. So, she was telling me about her experience and she said it was like a love fest. It was so nice to be with all of these people, thousands of people and everybody signs and all this stuff. And I said to her, "Did you notice that there weren't many black people there, if if any?" And she was like, "Yeah, actually, I did notice." And I was confused. And I was like, "I thought black people were really upset about him, too." And I didn't understand. This is my mom talking. So, I explained to her that 92% of black women and 80ome% of black men um did what we they were supposed to do back on uh November 5th and they are now resting and they are not participating in these here protests um and that they there was a concerted effort for um black folks to stay home yesterday on April 5th. And to be honest, I think she's still confused about the why.

[00:06:37]Um, but I'm working on that. But do yourself a favor and follow black content creators here on Tik Tok because you will learn so much and you will be able to use your um, new knowledge to help educate the people that you are in proximity with. Um but yeah, white folks, if you didn't know, um black folks said, "We're not we're not marching on April 5th. We're not doing doing it. We're going to stay home. We're going to let white people get us out of this mess, cuz white people got us into this mess." The more you know.

[00:07:17]>> So, white people will never leave black people alone. And I'm going to tell you why. White society's obsession with black people isn't new. It's centuries old. If you think about slavery, colonialism, and exploitation, [music] from the start, white wealth in America was built off the backs of black bodies.

[00:07:33]Sugar, cotton, [music] tobacco, rice.

[00:07:36]This wasn't just economics. It was a system where white people's very identity was shaped around controlling and owning [music] and watching black bodies. But here's the wild contradiction in all of this, [music] right? While trying to dehumanize us, white culture has always been obsessed with us, right? They copied our music, our style, our language, [music] our food, even our rhythm. All while denying us basic rights. Think about jazz and rock and [music] hip hop and fashion.

[00:08:05]All born out of black genius only to be taken, [music] watered down, and sold back to the world with a white face on it. So why can't they just stay away?

[00:08:15]Because in a system that is built both [music] on exploitation and envy, distance is impossible. White supremacy depends on keeping black people [music] in place. Close enough to use, control, or imitate, but [music] never free enough to threaten the hierarchy. It's a sick paradox. Fear and fascination at the same damn time. On a psychological level, it's [music] projection. White folks will project their guilt, their fear, and their insecurities onto blackness and then turn around and crave the very life culture and resilience they try to destroy. It's [music] it's like they want the sauce but not the struggle. Now, to be real, not every white person acts like this, but the system, the way whiteness has defined itself against blackness makes it so this obsession keeps resurfacing.

[00:09:07]Whether it's over policing or culture appropriation or trying to legislate our lives, it's it always comes back to the old need to dominate mixed with a quiet desire to be what they can't. So, I'm going to tell you what's going on in America right now, but most of y'all are not going to like this. We are literally in a let my people go moment. Moses versus Pharaoh. I'm talking about plagues and all. Because after 400 years of oppression and marginalization, the black community rose up in 2020 to demand justice from Pharaoh. It came with a plague called COVID that left over a million people dead. Still, we did not listen. Instead, we hardened our hearts. So, more plagues have followed.

[00:09:53]The second plague was the big lie, the loss of truth. The third plague was January 6th, the loss of the rule of law. The fourth plague, the plague of tariffs, the loss of economic stability.

[00:10:05]And the fifth plague, the plague of ICE raids, the loss of human dignity and decency. Our economy is shrinking. Our global standing in the world is diminishing. Our rights are being eroded every single day. And it's going to get worse and worse and worse until we listen to the voice of the black community calling for justice. Let my people go. And remember, those people didn't go away empty-handed. The Bible says they plundered the Egyptians asking for silver and gold. So don't forget the wealth transfer is part of the deal.

[00:10:43]When we speak up, we're aggressive. But when we stay quiet, we're intimidating.

[00:10:49]Make it make sense. Because it seems like no matter what we do, it feels like black women can't win in these workplaces.

[00:10:57]If we assert ourselves, we're too much.

[00:11:01]If we don't, we're not a team player.

[00:11:04]And the worst part, this double standard is negatively impacting us. It's keeping many of us stuck, exhausted, and constantly second-guessing ourselves.

[00:11:14]Listen closely. You and your voice are not the problem. Their discomfort is. I personally am done. I'm tired of trying to make other people feel comfortable.

[00:11:26]If my confidence and audacity makes you feel uncomfortable, that sounds like a you problem, not a me problem. Caring about your appearance and how you present yourself in the world should never be seen as a flaw. I go to work every single day with my hair and my makeup and I get comments daily about who am I trying to impress? Who am I trying to be seen by? Don't let me get my nails done because then it's oh, you got a hot date or something. No, I actually just give a damn about how I present at work. That's all. And the insane part is that people will really try to make it seem like something is wrong with you. And don't let you be like too quiet as well. Because that's another thing that really agitates people when you dress nice, you come to work, your hair is done, your makeup is done, and you don't speak to these people cuz you just want to clock in and clock out and get your money. They hate it because they feel like they should have access to you. And if they don't have access to you, you become some stuck up [ __ ] No, I like hair. I like makeup. I'm going to be doing this until I'm 75. And I just don't like to talk to people. It ain't personal. We just want to get in, do our jobs, and go home.

[00:12:43]It's not looked at as maybe we have social anxiety and we do better in more of a peaceful or solo setting. No, we can't be quiet in peace because it seems as though it sets us up for sabotage.

[00:12:57]Because we're quiet, it triggers people who feel rejected by us because we're not kissing up to them or we're not trying to be friendly with them or make friends with them. We keep it professional. We keep it fragile. But like I said, it's not good enough for someone who feels rejected.

[00:13:12]>> I I want to get this off my chest this morning with MAGA. Do you know why they're like this? Because they're ignorant. They live in rural America.

[00:13:23]I have family that live in Kansas and Indiana. And you know what? They're the most uneducated victimhood people that you've ever met in your life. They grow up in these bubbles of white America and they're told since they're born that you're the greatest. You're the best. Freedom, bald eagles, America flags. Pew, pew, pew, pew, pew. You are the best. You're the apex predator. Look at the founding fathers. Yeah, they own slaves. Yeah, that was a little bad. Yeah, only white men had rights. Yeah, black people were were three fifths of a person, but America's great. It was founded on Christian godly principles. Sure, black people couldn't vote until the 1960s.

[00:14:08]Sure, women didn't have rights until the 1900s, but it's great. You're the best.

[00:14:13]Out of all the planets in the universe, this piece of land was given to YOU BY GOD HIMSELF. Jesus Christ has blessed you with this.

[00:14:23]And what's happening is these people, it's part of their DNA. That's all they know. And when they're exposed to something like equality or gay people or trans people or anything that is not a straight white Christian America, it breaks their brains because they've been indoctrinated since they were little with this white nationalism.

[00:14:47]My dad was the same way. That's how he grew up. He used racial slurs all the time.

[00:14:54]But this is what we're dealing with. So when you confront them with facts, it literally you're you're trying to get through decades and decades of ignorance and indoctrination, right? Oh, the truth. They're the only people that know the truth. Them, they're the only ones.

[00:15:14]January 6th. Oh, that was peaceful. But king of Tesla, that makes you a domestic terrorist. pardoning the January 6th.

[00:15:22]They're patriots. But Colin Kaepernick taking a knee and disrespecting the flag that I've been told to worship like Jesus. He's a son of a [ __ ] Because America as it has progressed and when it had Barack Obama, they're threatened by their white supremacy, by their white patriarchy being taken away because they think that somehow their world view is just being obliterated and they just can't see outside of their own ignorance.

[00:15:56]And the moment they get a little bit of inconvenience, what do they do? They storm the capital and they beat police officers. They make threats to judges.

[00:16:05]They make racial slurs. They call people names.

[00:16:11]How do you think black people felt since the inception of this country? Be on held the slaves. But you But you you lost an election and you didn't know how to handle it. So you lost your [ __ ] and you drugg officers down the steps and you beat them with fire extinguishers and you praised them. Patriots. Patriots.

[00:16:32]Patriots. Freedom. FREEDOM. BALD EAGLES, AMERICAN FLAGS. WOOHOO.

[00:16:37]That's why we're here, America, because that's what you're dealing with. Decades and decades of indoctrination and ignorance.

[00:16:47]You're not going to fix everybody. You can't save everybody. But it's interesting, MAGA, that you have got a little bit of a taste of what it's like to be a black person in this country. And instead of taking 3 seconds with your what little brain cells you have and saying, you know what, I was wrong. I was ignorant.

[00:17:07]I never looked at it from that point of view. No, you doubled and tripled and quadrupled down. And you have to be the goddamn victim every time with your white victim card. Somehow the world revolves around you. And that's why we're here because the world doesn't revolve around you. But it has revolved around people that look like me since this country was started.

[00:17:33]And the reason we're here is because more people that look like me haven't made videos like this. That's why we're here.

[00:17:41]And in my last video, I'm going to say it again for Kla Harris. Leave her the hell alone. Get her name out your mouth.

[00:17:50]This country said, "No, we good. We gonna take the white supremacist. We gonna maintain the patriarchy. I hope she's having a goddamn margarita. I hope she's on vacation going on the accredit at Disneyland four times a day. She here you could have chosen to save this country, but you didn't. You chose to save the patriarchy. That's on you. You leave her the hell alone. She did what she had to do and you said, "No, we good."

[00:18:16]But that's why we're here, America, is because of this mentality. And I have people that that are in the Midwest.

[00:18:22]Trust me, you are never going to get through some of them.

[00:18:27]Decades and decades and decades of white indoctrination.

[00:18:32]They will never discuss the three epips clause. They will never discuss slavery.

[00:18:36]They will never discuss Black Wall Street. They will never discuss the the genocides of Native Americans. They don't even want to talk about Black History Month. Why? Because it takes the focus off of them.

[00:18:48]because this country has put the white person at the center of the universe since they were born in a lot of these red states.

[00:18:55]And then they vote for Republicans to own the libs so they can maintain their white patriarchy. And then they're on SNAP benefits. They're on food benefits.

[00:19:02]They're barely making it by. But they keep voting against their own best interest. And what happens? Those politicians say, "Nope, it's not my fault that you're here. It's not my fault that you voted for me. And we're last in education, lowest in wages."

[00:19:14]It's the libs. They're your enemy.

[00:19:17]That's why we're here. And finally, some of you are feeling a little bit of pain from that.

[00:19:25]But don't kid yourself. They will vote for Republican again.

[00:19:30]But that's why we're here, America.

[00:19:32]That's just a hard cold truth.

[00:19:36]And at some point, we have to decide. Do we want to keep fighting this white p white patriarchy? Do we want to keep fighting this political civil war?

[00:19:44]Do we want to have actual change? Or do we you want to just secede from the states and say, "You know what? Y'all want to own the lives? Then go do it. Go start the Confederacy again. Go bring Roberty Lee from the grave and put them up on a pedestal because that seems what some of you people want. You seem to just want to live in the Confederacy.

[00:20:01]Then have at it, but don't drag down the good people in your states with you because of your ignorance.

[00:20:08]Have a good day. I don't want to hear anything about POC solidarity ever again when non-black people of color has shown black people over and over again that they will always show up for that white proximity in those polls. Antilackness is one hell of a drug and white people really have y'all non-black people of color hooked on it. Black people continue to show up not only for ourselves but for other people of color and for even white people in general. We want to see progress and change for everybody in this country. Positive change. Yet, no one stands up for us.

[00:20:45]It's insane. And now, since black people are opting out, we're like, "No, we're staying home. Nah, we'll show up and vote." But y'all got that in the streets. Now y'all want to act like we don't contribute. Now y'all want to act like we don't care. Now y'all want to act like, "Oh, but ICE is also targeting you guys. We've been targeted since this country was [ __ ] conceived. I don't want to hear it. Black people have always been getting by law enforcement and now you guys only care because it's affecting other communities. Y'all didn't care when it was our children.

[00:21:18]You guys didn't care. And it's so sad to see because I used to advocate for POC solidarity because if we are all being discriminated against, why should we not stand up for each other? But y'all will show us time and time again that your antilackness is stronger than your want for change. Even if that change would benefit you guys, the black people, if y'all are watching this, continue to rest. Continue to protect your peace.

[00:21:41]But that doesn't mean that we're not going to vote anymore. We're just not going to be at the forefront of a fight that we didn't ask for.

[00:21:49]>> Love you guys.

[00:21:51]>> So, I just seen the video, right? It's a white guy, seemingly intelligent white guy [music] was talking about the response between different racial groups, specifically the white community and the black community. He is putting [music] emphasis on how historically in times like this, how [music] we have always reacted differently from the white community. He is noting which he is right that we as a people are very indifferent about the things that are going on right now.

[00:22:29][music] We have been fighting and we have been advocating against this machine for years decades. [music] I mean be before my existence. And now we're at a point to where things seemingly looks irreversible or we have washed our hands with this and there are whites that [music] are are fighting righteously. So there are whites that are fighting for the core values and principles that this nation was supposedly [music] founded on. There are people that still believe in America and and the foundations of that.

[00:23:09][music] us as a whole, we have never really seen many benefits from that. So [music] that's why we are indifferent.

[00:23:16]Spiritually, it's obvious that black folk are very spiritual folk as well, which is why we also [music] move differently collectively as well. We know that the foundings of this nation, it [music] was founded by an entity, and we're not talking about physically, [music] we're talking about spiritually.

[00:23:39]There was a certain mindset that was being [music] utilized when this foundation was created. That entity spiritually still exists. I need y'all to to understand [music] an entity that we have had to fight perpetually at least over the last 400 years. So, we see it differently because of [music] that. We know spiritually what we're up against. We know what that means for our existence. We know what y'all are finding out and experiencing for the first time. I know it's a shock to y'all. We have learned to not only survive but thrive [music] in this type of climate.

[00:24:21]>> Compartmentalizing and shrinking as a survival strategy. I think it's so harmful and unhealthy. My last role, a VP role, I was on the receiving end of a lot of hostility. I was in charge of leading inclusion initiatives and diversity initiatives. And I was often one of the few, if not only, non-white people in the room when I was having these conversations about why it was important for us to do a certain training to be mindful of our language, have consequences for people that were acting in problematic ways. And people would question that or push back on that or have me explain that. And a lot of the times it felt really dehumanizing to have to do that to explain why it's not okay to be racist or sexist. I couldn't just roll my eyes every time someone said something wild, right? I had to be professional. instead just like silence myself or compartmentalized when I wrote my play. The first time the actors read my play at a table read. So the first time I heard it brought to life, we took a break and I stepped out and I just cried so much because I thought that I was suddenly like really feeling a lot of the emotions that I kept bottled up inside. And I think that there are a lot of women in the workplace, black women, women of color especially, who the only way they can survive is to stay silent or to compartmentalize. But those feelings have to go somewhere. We can't just keep them bottled up inside.

[00:25:48]>> Now, welcome back. Um, human beings naturally try to predict the future. uh psychologists have studied that uh this for years that people want to know what is happening, what people are thinking, what's changing, what comes next. Now, black people in the back days, they were vocals, they were loud, they spoke, they went to the street, they they they they protested, and [snorts] they were easily studied. The system knew how to deal with black people. They knew what policies will they brought to trigger them. If they want to create commotions, they know what to do to trigger black people. They will just have one black man on the street. They a number of things they were doing because they knew how to trigger the emotions of black people. But right now, black people have gone silence. Right now, black people have gone boom. They have always misunderstood silence like it is fear.

[00:26:44]But black people do not fear. For example, many people confuse silence with weakness. Number one, history tell us something. Malcolm Martin Luther King Jr. understood strategy. Malcolm X understood strategy. Marcus Gabi understood strategy. And each had different approaches. Each had different beliefs. But all understood something.

[00:27:05]Attention is valuable. Energy is valuable. Time is valuable. And if people stand all the time reacting, they spend less time building. If you spend all the time on the streets, you'll have less time building your business, thinking about what next because you will be shouting today, shouting tomorrow, shouting the other day. You get that? And uh this is not true in politics only. It is true in business too, education, communities and everyday life. Just imagine spending every day arguing online.

[00:27:44]You don't you don't have every time to to do something that you do. Every day you are reacting. Every day you are responding. Eventually energy becomes exhausted. Now I just want you to imagine if you redirect that the same energy towards learning new skills, directed to towards creating businesses, supporting communities, building networks, creating opportunities, the outcome changes. So today we are living in a world that um um we have music, music crosses borders, technology crosses borders, culture crosses borders, people in for example Nairobi can influence people in New York and people in Lagos can influence people in London, people in Kingston, Jamaica can influence people in Johannesburg. So the world is increasingly connected and because of that communities everywhere are redefining identity, refining opportunity and redefining success and this creates discussion. Yes, this creates discussion. So we are no longer the street the street discussion but we are inside discussing our identity and knowing how we will build how we'll move next. You know there's a difference between building and reacting. One of the biggest question of of any community is where should energy go towards endless reaction or towards construction? And the only place where white folks were beating black people is where white people were building more than reacting. And black people were reacting. And they did a lot of things to us to continue reacting. They know the strategy. They planned for it. And they knew how to come along with it.

[00:29:13]Trigger black people, let them react.

[00:29:15]Let us build. Trigger Africans, let them react. Take the the resources. And that's why in each and every country that we are seeing wars, there is resources that are being extracted. they are being stolen. See Congo resources are there. When you see in Sudan, oil, Hamuz, Iran, oil this is called what these countries are Arabic countries. A lot of commotion every time and they are when you go in the West Africa, the countries like Bukina Paso, a lot of wars every time, but they are stealing everything they have from there. So trigger them, let them react. Let's come and steal. That's what they have been doing to black people. But black people have mastered this. Black people knows what to do now. Black people have get the answers. And right now we are going incognito. We are silent. And this silence of black people is threatening the white America with what is going on in America right now with the economic pressure with the policies pressure with this Trump era and black people can maintain silence. This is a trigger to them. They don't know what black people are thinking anymore. And that's why they have this fear of minorities, fear of becoming minorities, fear of losing power, fear of doing this because they don't know what these guys are planning.

[00:30:28]It's amazing to live a place where black people are strategizing, black people are building, black people are supporting each other. The people are watching these videos, they are black people. Most of them, you are supporting me and I appreciate that. Okay, you tell me more of the comment section. Until next episode, peace
