It's crazy how racist these people are that are complaining about racism

First of all, not ALL Africans or "blacks" were slaves in this country, even upon its inception. Thousands of us were also slave owners.

"If you criticize me, that's the same as saying the N-word" Well that's convenient...

That first woman was DISGUSTINGLY ENTITLED. She thinks social media videos are FREE LABOUR? I NEVER asked her to make content! She can stop anytime

Victimhood at its finest

TikTok truly seems to attract the worst in society.

People don't say "excuse me" anymore, because people are just simply afraid of confrontation and people are becoming confrontational about it 😕

Many people who wait quietly rather than say "excuse me" have been screamed at for saying, "Excuse me."

If someone is lazy then they’re lazy. End of story.

As a Blsck man, I do not subscribe to the 1st lady. Blsck people I know and talk to regularly, do not subscribe to her ideology. It's almost as if these tiktok Blscks are paid agent provocateurs.

I would really love to see a video of Samyra Miller breaking down how she has personally been oppressed based on her race or body type. I went to high school with her and she comes from a very wealthy family with a lawyer as a mother, not to mention she was allowed to join the football team even though she never played because she managed to guilt my school into letting her be a player so she could put it on her resume to get into Harvard, which she did. It’s people like this who’ve deluded themselves into thinking they are truly an oppressed group that concern me, because she is legitimately one of the most privileged people I’ve ever interacted with in my life.

Yeah, "Diversity Hire" should be offensive. That's why we should outlaw hiring people on the basis of race. Why are they asking for us to disclose our race in job applications? What business is it to them?

The internet is a public space. Permission is not required. That’s All.

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: it’s because of the freedoms America gives you that allows you to speak your mind and say what you want to say. People complain about having no freedoms here but they’re allowed to say horrible things and not get arrested. More than I can say for some countries.

I love how they always complain about the "angry black woman" stereotype, yet they are catering to it non stop in these tiktoks.

This is just as wild as a KZfaq vid I saw earlier about these black people claiming Filipinos from the Philippines are black. Im half black&filipino and I’m done with this generation trying to “black wash” everything and always being a victim playing the race card and claiming everything was “stolen” from black people 😐

The only thing oppressing the last woman is gravity.

I saw an instagram video yesterday with someone burning a flag 🇺🇸 saying she wasn’t free here in the USA but she certainly felt she was free to post it.

The crazy thing is that they are picking fights with a race of people that are not fighting back.

"White people, why don't you say excuse me?" Because the lady before you said we need permission to speak.🤷‍♀️

The first girl..she made a tiktok a while back asking "why can't white people leave black people alone" (don't know if that vid is still up). In the TikTok, she was basically telling white people to leave her and other black people alone, to stop watching/commenting on her videos and mind their own business. Funny thing is, most if not all of her tiktoks are about or addressed to white people.

I love it when people act like academic snobs while also being ignorant in the age information and they lack critical thinking skills. Woke doesn't mean you are awake it means you are fast asleep while the world gets destroyed around you.

Yes, I am afraid of saying excuse me to black women. They scare me and I’ve gotten verbally assaulted for doing so. So now I just stand there until they realize they’re in the way. I’m not getting yelled at in a Target because they hate me for existing.

I love your content Amala, one thing I wanted to bring up that never is, is the fact that the Irish were treated way worse(with the exception of Jews) than any race in North America for centuries, but nobody brings that up because we are white and it doesn’t align with their narrative

I'm a white person. I've been taking care of the sick elderly and infermed of all races classes and creeds my whole life..for free..what's that worth in her paradigm?

How do you ask for permission to speak if you don't have permission to speak?

I think Amala is my favorite political channel of all time. Always so reasonable and gives great perspective on many topics :)

The TikTok lady who screamed about “being allowed to speak to me” might be the reason someone is actually AFRAID to say “excuse me” and just stand behind you quietly???

Even here in Africa we never admit we have bad leaders. We just blame everything on the West and colonialism. We literally can do anything except being accountable.

Old white lady here just love your common sense keep sharing ❤

The woman in the first clip called social media content “unpaid labor?!” That’s a new one

This is hilarious! I said "excuse me" to a black man who turned and called me racist for saying "excuse me." Damned if you do, damned if you don't.

The one person is mad that people don’t say excuse me. The person before was mad that people don’t ask permission to speak 🤔

I called myself lazy this morning because I slept late. Did I call myself the N word? I'm so confused! lol

I just wait quietly behind people because I don't mind waiting. When I can't, "excuse me" is easy to say and it's usually accepted graciously.

I agree with Morgan Freeman when asked, "How do we stop racism?" He simply replied, "Stop talking about it." Great man, even better actor. Hands down.

I was raised in the rural South. My parents were both openly racist. One Thanksgiving I got tired of my mom using the N word and asked her to stop. She reached over the table and open hand slapped me, and screamed that I should never tell her what she could or couldnt say. I got kicked out of the house for a week and had to beg a friend for a place to sleep. Now I work in a place with a lot of black folks, and hear the word tossed around casually (and in anger) a hundred Times a day. I've heard the social psychology behind black folks using the word. But I still dont get it. I also work with Asians, Pacific Islanders, Eastern Indians and Arabic folks. And not once have I ever heard them refer to their own people with a slang insult. Black folks are the only ones who seem to do this. It makes no sense to me. How can you have so little respect for your own people that you refer to them with a pejorative all the time? And how can you convince the world that this is the worst thing you can be called, when you call each other by this word? There are around 270,000 words in the English dictionary. 47,000 of them are considered obsolete, with hundreds disappearing from our language every year. The N word should have died by social attrition years ago. As long as you use this word in reference to your own race, you will always project a stigma of being "less than". You are not. So dont use it.

Fortunately the vast majority of people get along....the black people I know are kind, lovely, giving people...and I feel blessed to know them. I can't imagine being the type of person who lives their life full of hostility and distrust.

Trust me our children are growing up and learning to be racist because of the examples of the culture that they see

Ok, the lady that brings up wyt people not saying excuse me, but rather waiting for people to move...this type of shyt makes me know that there is a segment of blk people that really do play passive aggressive games with random wyt people. I'm from a blk city, and I always had BW intentionally try to stand in my way when they already saw me coming and other weird shyt 24/7...this confirms the game playing.

Paying taxes is my form of reparations. You’re welcome.

I’m Hispanic but I find it hard to say excuse me because of my crippling social anxiety. Most of the time I find myself freezing up before I can even open my mouth

I feeeel like even that woman knows that those words aren't the same thing because she actually censors herself by saying "the n-word" but just says the other words flat out.... as if they aren't as bad, maybe? 😂

I’m cryinggggg at the asking for permission

If someone is yelling at me, whoever they are, am I not supposed to think they’re angry and being aggressive? Do I just stay quiet and take the abuse?

So glad I am not on TikTok I cannot deal 🤦🏽‍♀️

The hate in the eyes of the woman at 7:45 is quite horrifying.

Being passive aggressive to people you perceive as racist isn't going to change their minds. What do these people think they're accomplishing making these videos

I am waiting and not saying "excuse me" because you're having a conversation with your friend and I don't want to interrupt. So "excuse me" for being polite.

I as a black person still have hard to believe that theese people still exist today.

My ancestors literally died fighting to end slavery in this country but they like ignore that

damn had no idea I believed white supremacist ideologies my whole life when I was a teen idolizing LeVar Burton, Uncle Phil, Duke Ellington, Nat King Cole, Rihanna, Berry Gordy, Fredrick Douglass, Oprah, Morgan Freeman, Chuck Berry, Obama. can't believe I thought I was superior to them this whole time and just didn't know it.

You speak the truth! Greetings from Germany

That one who was yelling about people need to ask permission to leave comments…I seriously hope she doesn’t have kids. Talk about scary. Can you imagine doing something wrong and she’s your mom?

"you need to ask me for my permissions before you speak" yes, massa.

I’m white and people don’t say “excuse me” very often.

Seriously this is why the Draft is so essential for these brats..😊

They will NEVER stop once you give them any leeway. That's why you put your foot DOWN to all of it.

What a sad life to always think that you are a victim for the rest of your life.

“You need to ask permission to speak” And you need to blink. Seriously, it’s scaring me

These women reinforce every stereotype my parents ever made reference to. 40 years later, they are vindicated.

15:18 “It shouldn’t be on us [black people] to teach you.” Yet, the last woke creator said: (paraphrased) “You need my permission to speak! Your time of speaking is up! It’s time to listen to us [black people] ! Learn and listen from us.” So which is it? lol Oh my lanta! Amala, even though skin color shouldn’t matter when it comes to being able to make an objective point, this culture says it does and therefore your skin color does. The culture has decided that your voice is so powerful and yet you are actually using that power (and privilege) to answer back and challenge all of this ideological nonsense because of it. That’s integrity. You are using your powers of melanin for good! Haha! Thank you so much for bringing sanity back to the insanity and for calling out, daily, the hypocrisy of this woke culture. 🙏🏼

Pretty sure the last woman paused so much because she was so angry her brain started buffering.

True story: I was raised to say "excuse me" and "pardon me" when moving around people. When I was in middle school, in the 90s, I would say "pardon me/excuse me" as I moved through crowds on my way to the next class. A teacher saw this and had me called in to speak with the counselor because they were concerned I was talking to myself. They barely even believed me when I told the truth and threatened to make me see a psychiatrist (at my parents' expense, of course - a threat they later followed through with).

After June 19, 1865 (Juneteenth) there were still some black slaves in the USA for another six months. And afterwards black soldiers were helping exterminate various native American peoples. How dare there be a celebration for the ending of slavery on Juneteenth, and when will Black America pay reparations for their crimes against the native population? /endcharicature

I remember when Barack Obama was running for president the first time and the media reported that terms like "peanut butter", "hard work", "apartment", "bootstraps" were racist dog whistles. New words/phrases keep getting added to the "racist" list. This is crazy and divisive

God bless you Amala! Kudos on the intersectionality scam. Augustus Tolton, Pierre Toussaint, Mary Elizabeth Lange, Henriette DeLille, along with Crispus Attucks and Harriet Tubman and Booker T. must be wondering what is going on in those people's souls...wow...and we do "hold these truths to be self evident....life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness" Thanks God! happy 4th of July Amala and family and pray for those unhappy tokkers.

7:45 every person's skin color is a version of brown. It just depends how much melanin you have. So, feel free to comment if your skin is brown

They think we “consume” their w0ke content 😂

Amala, everything you say in this video is PURE GOLD! You are amazing!

These videos absolutely inspire me to reconsider racism. They’re definitely making a strong case in favour of it.

If their house is burning down or if they are having a heart attack, do they have to be asked permission for a white fireman or white EMT 12:33 to come to their aid??

Using hate to make money is soooo 2014, these chicks are a decade late!

On the "excuse me" subject, I was actually taught that saying that indicated impatience and that it was more polite to quietly wait without making a fuss or drawing attention to yourself. I was taught that speaking up, even to say excuse me, was interrupting someone else in what they were doing and that that implied you thought of yourself as more important than them... Assuming the worst or that people are being intentionally rude is very unkind.

As a white person in the US, all I wonder is how it ever got this bad. Growing up in the 2000s, everyone treated eachother equally, more or less. I didn't notice everything getting so political/ethical/racially sensitive until like the late 2010s and now it feels like we haven't been this divided since the segregation era. Maybe that's the true power of social media, everyone just says what they think with no filter and then everyone feels like they're being attacked by random strangers

You're awesome Amala, keep speaking truth to power, much love from Mexico

She went from helping black businesses to bankruptcy ...talk about gaslighting😂

As time goes on, it's becoming more and more clear that there are two types of people: those who love the truth, love peace, and seek righteousness -- and those who don't. The color of your skin is irrelevant.

Good on you Ms.Ekpunobi, very good work indeed. Cheers from Texas.

Im not responsible for what my ancestors did so my view is she needs to grow up this is 2024 not the dark ages

My take - if you don't love our country, I'm sure we will all be happy to chip in and buy you a ticket to a place of your choosing. These people are really self-important to be so, um, not very smart.

Amala deserves a serious round of applause 👏🏼 for being real!

Your wording is always so ON! Some of these clips just blow my mind. Thanks for your daily work 💕

I thought I was pretty non-racist, till all these people started telling me how horrible I am for being White, they started changing my childhood animated cartoon to fit them and still telling me I am bad!!! You ma'am are the problem as you can't leave history in the past! These people just makes me so mad.😡 Okay that second lady makes me want to go comment on her page. 😁 I know how to say excuse me. Don't be lumping me in with others!🤷 Love your content! ❤️

“If you always make yourself the victim, you can justify being horrible.” Heidi from South Park

I just love ya, Amala! Please keep doing what you do. I would like to see a rational, calm in-person discussion between yourself and any of these ladies you just showed today. Maybe they can unlearn to learn.

These people are angry and unhappy in life. They should go find something that finds them joy.

I feel sorry for these people that have so much hate in their heart. It must be awful to live that way. Its not new and sadly it will never go away.

I do wish these silly people would get over themselves, it’s ridiculous how they keep on and on and on, it’s tiring we’re bored with it now

Thank you for continuing to shine a light on this racism and extremism

America in 1776 was 13 colonies.

When I am standing behind someone and waiting until my turn. I am in no hurry and don't want to rush people. It is not that I don't have the balls to say excuse me, just that I am calm and relax.

I would like more information on the “excuse me” video. Because depending on the situation someone may feel it is rude a do not want to interrupt and therefore are happy to wait . Also there are some black people that would take offense and feel that the person saying excuse is in fact being rude. This seems like a no win scenario here 🤷‍♀️?

No one is listening to people like this at this point. Everyone is annoyed and exhausted. Boy who cried wolf.

10:57 She already knows and doesn't wanna accept the real reason.

I've paid taxes for 51 years. I've never been on welfare, never had section 8 housing, never had my utilities paid except by me, my kids nor I ever received free lunch or any other welfare. Always paid my own way. I've never been wealthy, but always paid my own way and my student loans!

Love when they say we need to ‘unlearn the racism we’ve been taught’. Pretty sure I’ve never been taught any racist opinions or behaviors. I used to tutor a black classmate in middle school that was a football player. The fact that he was black barely registered to me. Not once did I ever think he wasn’t good at math because his skin was darker, I thought he wasn’t good at math because he was a football player. Obviously, not every football player struggles with mathematics. But still, that was my mind went to, not race. And that’s still what my mind would go to today if I was put in the same situation as an adult. Yet we’re also being called racist these days for not acknowledging that there’s a difference between me and that black classmate.

Bigger problem: where's your dad?

Thank you, Amala for going through the pains of watching TikTok vids, and the enjoyment of your videos and rational mind. *I'm actually one of those who don't have the app and don't want it.*

Why do white people not say excuse me. Interesting question. I live in Brooklyn, I am white. When I courteously say excuse to get around a person who is obliviously blocking a side WALK (I capitalize to emphasize that the purpose is to walk, not to stand still in a group and block everyone) the response I get is basically that I said it with a sarcastic tone and I’m an a-hole who should just walk into the street to get around them. Saying excuse me in nice way gets turned back on you, and you are now the rude person. So no, it isn’t worth saying excuse me. I now just walk straight through anyone who refuses to move out of the way.
