Performative Allies and The Disingenuous Black Lives Matter Attention Seekers

Feminista Jones, an author, speaker, and longtime organizer recently said, “This performative ally stuff is not helping, and this really catered to the people who want to show that they care. They thought this little black box was going to be solidarity. I’m like, ‘This is not how movements work. This is not how we’re supposed to be using social media.’ And people fell for it because it takes minimal work and minimal effort.”Who are the black squares and cutesy illustrations really for?https://www.vox.com/the-goods/2020/6/3/21279336/blackout-tuesday-black-lives-matter-instagram-performative-allyshipSupport KOP by: Sending a PayPal donation by going to https://www.paypal.me/kingofpodcasts Visiting KOP’s special Amazon page at http://www.kingofamazon.com  Contact KOP for professional podcast production, imaging, and web design services at http://www.kingofpodcasts.comFollow KOP on Twitter or Facebook @kingofpodcasts Subscribe to KOP’s other programs: Wrestling is Real Podcast http://www.wrestlingisreal.com and the Broadcasters Podcast http://www.broadcasterspodcast.com--- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/king-of-podcasts/messageSupport this podcast: https://anchor.fm/king-of-podcasts/supportBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/depraved-and-debaucherous--5267208/support.Contact KOP for professional podcast production, imaging, and web design services at http://www.kingofpodcasts.comSupport KOP by subscribing to his YouTube channel and search for King Of PodcastsFollow KOP on X and TikTok @kingofpodcasts (F Meta!)Listen to KOP’s other programs, Podcasters Row… and the Wrestling is Real Wrestling Podcast and The Broadcasters Podcast.Buy KOP a Coffee https://buymeacoffee.com/kingofpodcastsDrop KOP a PayPal https://www.paypal.com/donate?hosted_button_id=3TAB983ZQPNVLDrop KOP a Venmo https://account.venmo.com/u/kingofpodcastsDrop KOP a CashApp https://cash.app/$kingofallpodcasts
