Damn, That Bitch is Black, Black

Usually “black” just means “darkish brown.”

But this bitch is black, black.

She’s also a victim, which is not surprising.

Sophia Danner-Okotie’s has ambitious plans for her Nigerian-inspired clothing line but a sense of dread has punctured her optimism as she watches a legal battle being waged against a small venture capital firm that has provided funding instrumental to her boutique brand’s growth.

The case against the Fearless Fund alleges that one of its grant programs discriminates against non-Black women and asks the courts to imagine a similar program designed only for white applicants. It is among a growing list of lawsuits against corporate diversity and inclusion programs that are making their way through the courts this year.

Most have been filed by conservative activists encouraged by the Supreme Court’s June ruling ending affirmative action in college admissions and are now seeking to set a similar precedent in the working world.

The battle has been a roller coaster of setbacks and victories for both sides, but some companies are already retooling their diversity programs in the face of legal challenges, and the growing expectation that the conservative-dominated Supreme Court will eventually take up the issue.

The case against the Fearless Fund, which provides early-stage funding to businesses led by women of color, exemplifies the unpredictable legal landscape.

In late September, a federal judge in Atlanta refused to block a Fearless Fund grant contest for Black women business owners, saying they are donations protected by the First Amendment and the lawsuit was likely to fail. But days later, a three-judge federal appeals panel suspended the contest, calling it “racially exclusionary” and saying the suit was likely to succeed.

“Am I going to be able to apply to grants like these? Are they even going to exist?” said Danner-Okotie, who received $10,000 from a separate Fearless Fund grant. “With this last ruling, it seems like no.”

The poor dear.

It’s been illegal for a long time to racially discriminate.

I don’t think it should be illegal, and I’m actually against the stupid conservative arguments about “true equality.” These conservative are talking about “fulfilling the dreams of Martin Luther King,” while I’m over here talking about fulfilling the dreams of James Earl Ray.

But the claim by Jews that whites can’t discriminate against anyone but everyone can discriminate against whites is just vile on its face. So I guess stopping these programs that explicitly ban whites is good? I don’t know. I don’t really feel strongly about it. In general, I’m just so sick of hearing conservatives talk about how “this is real racism” when whites are discriminated against.

I don’t care about racism. Telling blacks they can’t discriminate just reenforces the anti-racist narrative.

The logical and good thing would be to allow for both blacks and whites to run their own exclusive organizations, so the response to these black only groups should be “well, whites should obviously be allowed to do the same thing.”

But in order to make that argument, you would have to repeal the Civil Rights Act. It’s unconstitutional in the extreme, and should be repealed, but that’s unlikely to happen at the current time.
