Ta-Nehisi Coates, the new Malcolm or Stokely or Angela?

Posted by literary gm on 10/19/2024, 12:23 pm

TA-NEHISI COATES IS ONE OF THE BRAVEST INTELLECTUALS EVER.. AND THE BRAVEST BLACK INTELLECTUAL EVAR!

Sure, the Zionists are in a meltdown state over Ta-Nehisi's book criticizing & exposing Israel's apartheid system and its wickedness, but please NOTE THAT NOT ALL JEWS ARE ZIONISTS and even some Zionist Jews are now praising Coates for his critique of modern day Zionism.

For sure in some Jewish quarters he's been labeled an antisemite but that's expected for anyone who does not completely support Israel. What surprises me is that the Zionist forces in America have not been able to totally block, censor or banned Ta-Nehisi from the airwaves. And when he's allowed on, his treatment has been more or less fair, especially when the anchors bring up pro-Israel talking points which Coates is able to completely discredit. Ouch!

Now here's the thing i've been thinking lately: Is Ta-Nehisi Coates our new Malcolm X, or Stokely Carmichael/Kwame Ture, or Angela Davis or even Dr King during his last years when he began blasting America for Vietnam etc?
Not since Malcolm & Stokely & Angela has there been such a high-profiled Black intellectual or personality who has brazenly taken on Israel's policies and behavior against the Palestinian people. I swear!

I'd say he's the new "Huey Newton" on the Palestinian issue. I think by now the whole world knows that not all Jews are Zionists. Like there are many Muslims who disagree with extremist Muslim "SALAFISTS", coz they are the worse, Salafists are like the Zionists of the Muslims.

Anyway, it is not antisemitic to defend Palestinian human rights. And it's past time for more American Jews to say so to correct a media that's lost the thread.

You wrote: "And its time for more Jews to say so to correct a media that's lost the thread."

Actually Mr TheOne, the biggest & loudest voices condemning Israel's treatment of the Palestinian people have been Jewish intellectuals like Noam Chomsky, Naomi Klein, Norman Finkelstein, Amy Goodman who has the best & consistent coverage of the Palestinian cause etc etc.
But guess what? If you look for them on mainstream media you won't find them or see them. They been well censored & blocked.

As a matter of fact, there was a big protest & rally on Wall Street 3 days ago by the group 'Jewish Voices For Peace'. They shut down the Stock Exchange for a while. If you look at mainstream media for its coverage there was none!

And don't forget the huuuge rallies in Israel against Netanyahu etc etc.

btw, "Ta-Nehisi Coates Is Challenging the Cognitive Dissonance of Pro-Israel Liberalism."

yep, reading is good..
Great analysis on the meaning of Ta-Nehisi Coates' essay on Palestine in his book THE MESSAGE.

google: "Ta-Nehisi Coates Is Challenging the Cognitive Dissonance of Pro-Israel Liberalism" by Adam Johnson. (oct.18)

The title alone carries the gist of the analysis so you don't really have to read the article. But it's great reading.
FREE PALESTINE🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸

Indeed, I'm well aware of these great Jewish voices especially that of Noam Chomsky and Amy Goodman.

Ain't it a shame White American Jews fighting and speaking up for the Palestinians while Arab Muslims like Saudis, Egyptians, Jordanians and what have you are not saying shiit?? Hmm, probably they're just too busy castrating their Black African immigrants or their own native Afro-Arabs, so they don't have time to verbally defend their Palestinian brothers&sisters

. If not then they must be busy "stealing" the passports of their Sierra Leone and Ethiopian maids in Lebanon so that they remain stuck in between their hands. Bastards!!

You should google and read about the Lebanese HATE of Palestinians in their soil. Yes, reading is very, very good.

MSNBC Lawrence O'Donnel did a great job. Yes, Ta-Nehisi always go hard.
