Summary

Nikole Hannah Jones is the scariest Black person in America right now because she makes white people aware of themselves and their history and the racism they’ve been a part of. Why is Nikole and 1619 and Critical Race Theory so frightening? Why is it that the right wants us to keep Dr. Seuss but cancel Nikole Hannah Jones? And how can you be racist without being mean? And what the hell is wrong with white people???

Welcome to Democracy-ish.

0:12.0

I'm Toray.

0:13.7

And I'm Danielle Moody.

I found it quite funny that they said her credentials were not enough even though she has a master's degree from UNC.

1:12.5

I also are we ignoring the fact that she's a Pulitzer Prize winning journalist.

1:19.5

And a MacArthur Genius grant recipient.

1:24.6

And then how old are they? Because I'm going to assume that they're probably largely over the age of 60.

1:52.3

I'm going to assume that they're white men largely. Not as if it would be better if it was a, you know, a bench of Karen's.

1:59.5

But like at the end of the day, what this definitively shows us is just how fearful white Americans are of the truth.
