Seeing anybody in the year 2020 glamorizing the Kennedy Klan is giving my brain a yeast infection. This murderous mobster family was the epoch of white privilege, anti-blackness and profiteering/campaigning off white guilt & Black pain. Lorraine Hansberry is cackling right now. https://twitter.com/chelleisrad/status/1282908545529180160
You know RFK & JFK ordered the FBI to spy on and terrorized James Baldwin and other civil rights activists because they refused to publicly praise the Kennedys for doing the bare minimum. They called Thee Lorraine Hansberry, (Raisin in the Sun) ungrateful & had her followed
This especially stemmed from the infamous disastrous meeting on May 24 1963 where both Kennedys invited prominent civil rights leaders to his home where both Kennedys admit they did NO homework for but wanted Black adulation regardless : https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.vox.com/platform/amp/identities/2018/6/8/17417758/trump-race-america-rfk-james-baldwin-michael-eric-dyson
And of course their silence on the Chappaquidick incident where Ted Kennedy murdered a 28 year old woman (negligent homicide) who was RFKs campaign secretary. https://amp.usatoday.com/amp/1742106001
I could literally make this thread a mile long but my kettle just rang out & I need to start my day. This family was a whole menace and are the pantheon of White Privelege. Just say you like how they’re faces & go. They were all just attractive Satans.
