This is a little problematic for me.

Ruth Bader Ginsburg was not always a friend to the African-American community and then to conflate her with John Lewis is a little funky to me.

I take the point.

But know that that Meme is a little violent to African Americans in general and African-American women in particular.

And this particular strain of white feminism where you Co-op our gains without a concomitant commitment to our own struggles is Peak white supremacy.

As well, it’s the exact kind of selective solidarity that made for your numbers 55% Trump to less than 45% Biden .

Black women delivered the Democratic party this year .

And it’s with white women not doing their job at all , because that is where white women locate themselves in this meme.

They locate themselves with Ruth Bader Ginsburg , which means you also own her spotty record with black people and you also own second-wave feminism.

And a lot of that is not a good look. And that to me is what I see when I see that meme.

Discuss.
