The Black Power Mixtape 1967-1975 (2011) dir.Göran Olsson

“This whole, kind of, falling in love with black things for a short period of time is essentially racist. It still is hypothesized on a great sense of separateness and a sense of treating black activities as a kind of curiosity; either benign or threatening, one or the other. When it’s threatening, ‘Oh my god, they’re going to riot or something’. And if it’s benign, ‘Let’s let them paint or draw or sing or dance, whatever they want to do. Until we, the white community, get tired of it’ and that whole structure, is essentially racist.“

i wanna point this in the direction of all non-black people and ur racist progeny on various social/print media platforms who are capitalizing, fetishizing, accessorizing, de-centering, lifting and traipsing all over black cultural productions for the aesthetic “other”/perceived “edgy” value of it.
