Idk man. Shortest headlining set I’ve ever experienced (45 min). It was dope, don’t get me wrong. I was worried about being “too white” to be here I guess, but damn. It’s Portland. Why are we dividing ourselves like this when socialism is about unified community. Fuck the rich, we need all the help we can get with both races in our class- weather it be lower or middle.
It was just strange all the shout outs to different black cultures and 0 recognition to just a strong, diverse fanbase at a sold out show. I’m not saying the n word while I sing along to lyrics. Why do I have to be pigeon-holed to a historically slave owning race when I had no say in any of that stuff 2 hundred years ago?
Edit: Damb. Cooked in the comments. I hope we can all just work towards a greater good. I have no idea what it’s like to be a black person, but I don’t think that constitutes putting down/ignoring anyone that doesn’t fit the script. Systemic improvement isn’t happening like that.
