"If a white man wants to be your ally, what does he think of John Brown? You know what John Brown did? He went to war. He was a white man who went to war against white people to help free slaves. He wasn’t nonviolent. White people call John Brown a nut. Go read the history, go read what all of them say about John Brown. They’re trying to make it look like he was a nut, a fanatic. They made a movie on it, I saw a movie on the screen one night. Why, I would be afraid to get near John Brown if I go by what other white folks say about him.



But they depict him in this image because he was willing to shed blood to free the slaves. And any white man who is ready and willing to shed blood for your freedom—in the sight of other whites, he’s nuts. As long as he wants to come up with some nonviolent action, they go for that, if he’s liberal, a nonviolent liberal, a love-everybody liberal. But when it comes time for making the same kind of contribution for your and my freedom that was necessary for them to make for their own freedom, they back out of the situation. So, when you want to know good white folks in history where black people are concerned, go read the history of John Brown. That was what I call a white liberal. But those other kind, they are questionable."

Don't tell black people how to fight back. If you're not black, you won't have to deal with the consequences that black people face on the daily.The reactions to this video in general show why White America deserves Donald Trump. People scream about how Trump is an existential threat and how important it is to vote (the most passive form of political participation) against him. But when people are willing to attack clan rallies, or riot, or beat up a Trump supporter, then things have gone too far.Y'all need to unpack what you're really saying here. Donald Trump wants to tear people's families apart. He wants refugees to die at sea. Rape survivors have to deal with PTSD every time. Just last night, 8 trans youth committed suicide because they saw what their country thought about people like them.For marginalized communities, this isn't a game. It's not a sporting event where you root for your team or a reality show where you text your vote to beat the contestant you don't like. Our lives are literally on the line. If you don't think that's worth throwing a few punches over, then don't talk to me. Miss me with that civility shit. Because your decorum is not more important than my life.Y'all are questionable as fuck.
