#death from above

this post makes me cry every single damn time

This is one of those legendary posts that’s been around since I first made a Tumblr. When I didn’t have access to my Tumblr for a few years I would sometimes reference this post. Iconic lol

While Kevin Samuels didn’t create misogynoir, he revealed how it’s still a defining characteristic of the Black community. He mobilized millions of people (mostly Black men) to openly demonstrate their hatred for Black women.

He believed that Black women needed to be submissive to Black men and “get on their program.” He castigated well educated Black women, fat Black women, single Black women (especially moms), poor Black women (especially moms), well-off career-focused Black women. It sounds contradictory, but it’s not–he made his money and fame from giving Black men what they want which is a channel to denigrate and humiliate all Black women.

To his followers, he was a cult leader. They know and repeat all his verbiage–“big shirley,” “fit, feminine, friendly, submissive,” “accountability is kryptonite,” “modern women” etc etc. They felt emboldened to trash women on YT and other social media sites while following their leader. How do we think they treat Black women off the internet?

Moreover–and this is crucially important–he held explicitly dangerous views on abuse which he euphemistically referred to as “domestic discipline” and advocated mothers not believing their children if they say they’re being sexually violated by their boyfriend/ male family member.

His rise to fame reveals that we have a terribly long way to go when it comes to respecting and supporting Black women. I don’t celebrate deaths, but nothing has been lost by this one but perhaps there’s something to be gained since the irrefutable leader of the virulently sexist Black manosphere will no longer be creating poisonous content.

Or perhaps another content creator will merely take his place. As long as we have an anti-Black woman culture there will always be another KS since it’s an easy formula to follow and profit from. 🤷🏿‍♀️
