Oooh, Angela Davis's mother emerged from this community of 'red-diapered' babies! (author's phrasing).

It is a class war after all, as Kelley details allll over this book how affluent Black people were not working in favor of working class Black people and tried to stop them from getting the right to vote 🙃 just like the bloody suffragettes only cared about their class and their 'race' getting the vote.

Whenever someone hates the left, I wanna be like: are you enjoying the weekend? Are you enjoying only having to work 8 hours per day? Are you enjoying whatever rights you have? Do you think they sprung fully formed from legislator skulls?? Or did people protest and rally and fight for them and paid with their lives?? That's what I wanna say.

Gotta 'love' white leftists fucking everyone over (including us, all over the world) by not organizing with Black people. This sucks.

Enjoying the book so far, hidden radical history of early 20th century civil rights struggle in the heartland of the midcentury civil rights movement AL
