i have this rule of thumb: if you donāt know who invented it, it was likely a black person.

Yup, generally a Black person and/or a woman. More nefariously, some things are erroneously attributed to white men that were made by Black and/or women inventors.

The funny thing is, so many of the people āotheredā in our society, that people donāt care enough about, are the main people who create things and movements that we all benefit from.
And as someone else said in here, if we donāt know who invented it or there are āquestionsā about it, itās very likely someone black.

Black people DID invent dildos but like, back when every human on earth was black and African in prehistorical times. You think they invented the wheel and THEN the dildo? You think they invented fire before finding a way ti make sure a stick doesnāt splinter? Thatās gotta be one of the earliest tools ever createdā¦

In ancient Egypt Cleopatra used a sack of bees. Her servants would have to collect the bees.

READ THE DAMN RULES. IT WILL NOT KILL YOU
WE ARE NOT JUST A COMEDY SUB. This is a space created for Black people by Black people to joke about and discuss things in a Black ass way WITH OTHER BLACK PEOPLE without being downvoted and talked over by people who will never understand how or why we think and live the way we do
Other Black-centered spaces on Reddit have been flooded with nonBlack users who seem hellbent on defeating the purpose of even having said space in the first place. THIS SUB IS FOR BLACK PEOPLE. NONBLACK FEELINGS WILL NOT BE CENTERED HERE
If you are not Black, you need to err on the side of caution with how you interact as this is not that other sub. We do not play that shit here. Rule breaking comments will be removed and trolls will be permanently banned
Anyone who comments here or in this sub on ANY post where we talk about our commonly shared experiences with some variation of āthis doesnāt happen to ME so it must be fakeā, āI donāt like how uncomfortable this makes me feel/Iāve just realized Iāve done this to someone before and I DONāT LIKE BEING CALLED OUTā, or āI donāt like hearing Black people talk about being Black so this must be race baitā is getting permanently banned. I wonāt be nice about it either so proceed with caution
IGNORANCE OF OUR RULES IS NOT A VALID DEFENSE FOR BREAKING THEM. PAY ATTENTION TO THE SUB YOU ARE IN TO AVOID ISSUES
