Dr Shola on "Racial Gatekeeper" Kemi Badenoch + Black Employment Month Special S2 EP16
In this week's Black Political Rant, Kehinde Andrews (@KehindeAndrews) debunks the psychosis of Whiteness in the spirit of Black Employment Month. The arguments and myths are based on Kehinde's book The New Age of Empire: How Racism and Colonialism Rule the World: including Arab slavery in Afrika, why Britain really abolished the Atlantic Slave Trade (nothing to do with morals), not everything that's anti-capitalist and anti-imperialist is Marxist + more.
