What is happening now…?

Megyn Kelly got in a sparring match with Colin Kaepernick and other A-listers over institutional racism as well as American foreign policy.

There is nothing new about American terrorist attacks against Black and Brown people for the expansion of American imperialism.

America has always sanctioned and besieged Black and Brown bodies both at home and abroad. America militarism is the weapon wielded by American imperialism, to enforce its policing and plundering of the non white world.

After Colin criticized Trump’s decision to assassinate Qassem Soleimani, Megyn couldn’t help herself but to chime in.

Because everything is racist. Everything. Even fighting back against terrorists who kill Americans. Nike, feeling proud? https://t.co/sfc1Yz3phY

Of course, Megyn’s response drew many Twitter users, including When They See Us and Selma filmmaker Ava DuVernay.

No, I will not be shamed over calling out bullshit claims of racism – which undermine the legitimate claims. Killing a terrorist is not about skin color; it’s about protecting our country from a guy who murdered hundreds of Americans, period.

Ava later muted Megyn on Twitter.

Oy vey! Well, Megyn clearly stepped in it… again. It’s not like she hasn’t stepped in it before y’all, but perhaps she went too far this time.
