Context #NewspaperUSBrdshtTheHillCheyanneDaniels "Rep. Ro Khanna (D-Calif.) said he was 'profoundly embarrassed' to see Republican presidential hopeful Vivek Ramaswamy lecture then-CNN host Don Lemon over Black history during a recent and heated segment on the cable news network. During an April 19 exchange on 'CNN This Morning,' Ramaswamy, 37, argued that Black Americans had received equal rights after the Civil War and with the help of the National Rifle Association. Khanna said he was 'profoundly embarrassed by Vivek lecturing a Black man about Black history.' 'The truth is that the Black civil rights movement paved the way for the 1965 immigration act so that Vivek's family or mine could come to America,' Khanna tweeted on Tuesday. 'We owe a huge debt.'" https://thehill.com/homenews/campaign/3970313-don-lemons-response-to-vivek-ramaswamy-was-right-says-ro-khanna/ #OrgClassifPPUSDemocraticPartyRohitKhanna [tweet]
Addendum the dead link above appears to pointing to the following: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-l5QqyN_How&t=65s i.e. where Ramaswamy attempts to « #BehaviourCondescendingWhitesplain » Lemon through attributing the emancipation of African-American people after the #NarrativeWarAmericanCivil on #AdvocacyUSNationalRifleAssociationNRA rather than the more accepted explanation of rights won due to the #CauseCivilRightsMovement. Lemon finds Ramaswamy's efforts #TheoryRevisionismHistorical.ist. The apparent 'problem' of two non-white people arguing about #OtheringDiscriminationRacism points to the idea of #TheorySociologyIntersectionality i.e. that our experience of discrimination is contingent upon our sociocultural #EpistemologySociallyConstructedKnowledgeSituatedness. [Wikipedia] In this case, Lemon's experience of discrimination/racism is from the perspective of being #IdentityAmericanBlackAndAfricanPOC [imdb] whereas for Ramaswamy, it's from the perspective being the child of an Indian immigrant (whose family had the resources to send him to #EDUUSUniversityOfHarvardHarvardCollege [Wikipedia] i.e. presumably, because they were #PhenomnImmigrationEconomicMigrant.s to the US).

Context response [tweet] to this article: #MagazineNewsweekDavidBenMoshe "Watching the Kyle Rittenhouse trial, I observed the same pattern: Everyone saw injustice, but the two conflicting narratives also lacked nuance. The Right saw a hero being dragged through an unjust court system, a victim of media demonization. The Left saw a white supremacist who drove 'across state lines' to kill peaceful protesters demanding dignity for Black Americans. The assumptions of both sides were proven false in the courtroom: Rittenhouse certainly made poor decisions, but that doesn't make him a criminal. Criminals are convicted in a court of law by a jury based on the available evidence. That is justice. Huge amounts of time, energy, and money have been spent on a dysfunctional conversation that is encouraging a violent reality, instead of what we need: a better future. We should be having serious discussions about gun laws, self-defense laws, and the ability of our system to keep law and order on the streets. Because in a reality where civilian teenagers can legally walk the streets with assault rifles while the rioters loot and burn cities, people will die. Our national conversation shouldn't be limited to high-profile cases such as Rittenhouse and Blake. There are vigilante murders happening every day in America, most occurring in Black communities, with innocents getting hit in the crossfire." https://www.newsweek.com/im-black-ex-felon-im-glad-kyle-rittenhouse-free-opinion-1652402 #IRLPrivateCitizenKyleRittenhouse #CharacterisationMonsterDemonisation #PoliticsNationalismWhiteSupremacy #PleaDefenceSelf #IRLPrivateCitizenJacobBlake #ToponymAmericaNorthUSWisconsinKenosha
