If you’ve never heard of Najma Sharif, well, you’ve been missing out. So have we, apparently, because we missed this thread of hers last week. It seems that the writer and founder of the Black Muslim Collective has a problem with white people. Or, rather, with white people who love black people (and vice-versa):
how do Black ppl fall in love with white people, like what has to go wrong

We told you she was special.
Look at that blue check just shining brightly….. https://t.co/8xCEAt5EAi

It means we should pay extra attention to the important things she has to say. Like this:
it’s like three white people that have sex appeal and here y’all are having kids with them. I tried to not be judgmental about it but I don’t understand.
— Najma (@overdramatique) May 8, 2019
what do y’all be talking about?
— Najma (@overdramatique) May 8, 2019
What does she be talking about?
If you flip all this around, comes across as racist AF. Why we out here dragging anybody for who they choose to love?
— Zay (@RIOzay) May 8, 2019
Yeah … you don’t have to flip it around for it to be racist AF.
Is it just me, or is this racist? https://t.co/GvcqjEnA5R

Sometimes it's best to remain silent than speak up and say something foolish. This was a time to be silent. pic.twitter.com/maQlbrASZi

Human beings tend to fall in love regardless of colour. Are you ok?
— Riko Dan (@TheRikoDan) May 11, 2019
We have no doubt she thinks she’s perfectly OK. Which is what makes it all especially awful.
Delete this tweet. This is just racist

We’re all human, this energy is gross

This is blatant racism, the ancestors of both white, black and Hispanic people who couldn’t be with each other because of racism would roll in their graves seeing a young person from a free generation promoting the idea people from different races shouldn’t love each other. Sad.

It’s genuinely bizarre watching how it’s now apparently Woke to adopt segregation-era beliefs like this.
— Corie Whalen (@CorieWhalen) May 14, 2019
You'd like to imagine that someone would hear themselves saying this out loud and take a moment to think, "Wait, that can't be right."
— prop op (@ProperOpinion) May 14, 2019
If you’ve downed enough of the intersectional kool-aid to believe that all white people are inherently colonialist oppressors, I suppose you could draw this conclusion. But it’s a very sad way to live life.
