How did that work out for us?
First lady Michelle Obama considered wearing her hair in braids while living in the White House. But then she thought of the American people.
“Let me keep my hair straight,” Obama said of her mind-set at the time. “Let’s get health care passed.”https://t.co/uF1peWIj29

This is the colonial mindset of Black petit-bourgeoisie. She decided to capitulate to the sensitivities of whiteness while her husband smashed universal healthcare, expanded AFRICOM, attacked & destroyed Libya, started wars in Syria & Yemen - in other words - serve white power! https://t.co/RqG74Qseia

question everything
it didn't work Michelle
Has anyone told Michelle it didn't work. Or does she think 10% of America, at minimum, still without any healthcare whatsoever was success? More likely 50% or more can't afford to see a doctor. How is this some sort of 'we did it' moment? Pandering to the white folk did not get healthcare for Americans. I am shocked I tell you, shocked!
We cannot solve our problems with the same thinking we used when we created them.
