You can't understand American fascism without talking about anti-Blackness SPECIFICALLY, "racism" is not cutting it as an analytical framework. Hundreds of articles about fascism, zero mentions of anti-Blackness. The discourse is suffering from a lack of depth, we need to elevate Black authors
I know this is close to link spam, but this is probably my favorite piece I’ve ever written about this https://www.damemagazine.com/2022/02/01/white-people-know-what-race-is/

Listen I’d love to write on this because it’s a specialty of mine but I’m a slave to my hyperfixations due to capitalism and right now I’m writing an album chronicling trans genocide using work songs/cadences
The way we skip over anti Blackness as if it’s not the foundation on which this country is built is something else
