Who is this woman and why should anyone take her seriously? Just because you have a lot of twitter followers doesn't make you an authority on anything.

You don't like to listen to strong black women? Why should their voices be silenced just because you don't like what they're saying?

I think no one said she should be silenced. The consensus seems to be that the US is getting twisted when a black woman tells other blacks not to marry whites. I say, marry who you like but not green people—I hate green people.

Because she's an idiot.

Subjectivity is valuable because people's lived experiences are valuable - because people's spoken truths are, in and of themselves, truths.

Your blatant victim-blaming is absolutely disgusting. Survivors of racism have already lived through enough trauma.

I was robbed and beaten up by a black guy, ergo everyone should be afraid of and avoid black guys because they're robbers. Is this the subjective truth applied to the collective that you're speaking of?

No, that just means you're a racist. Big surprise.

No, if subjective truth is TRUTH then whatever I believe is true... is true. I need no evidence and need not prove anything to anyone.
