my man olufemi reads the social, intellectual, and economic elite for filth in this treatise on how identity politics (originally conceptualized as a means of bringing marginalized people together to organize and resist authoritarian hegemony) has been co-opted by said authoritarian hegemony to render marginalized people powerless and misdirect conversations we have about resistance to center "marginalized" elites as representatives resulting in a whole lot of talk and pretty much no action (as well as some historical alternatives)
should be required readings for undergrads, twitter posters, "dinner with jay-z" proponents, and pretty much anyone who has ever asked "what the fuck is going on and why"
