Liberals hate it when Black people don’t play along with their attempts to keep them “in a perpetual state of grievance in order to keep them as a one-party people in a two-party system,” according to Walter E. Williams.
Online activist Tariq Nasheed was canceled by Kickstarter because, among other things, he bashed the Harriet Tubman film, starring British actress Cynthia Erivo, before the movie could earn back its production costs at the box office.
Liberals love their slavery movies – and that sticks in the craw of anti-racists like Nasheed, who railed against the movie for twisting the historical facts and for making the film’s villain a Black man named “Bigger Long”.
Tariq and his 266K followers on Twitter.com campaigned against the film, and they celebrated when the movie earned only $12 million on opening weekend – a flop by any other standards.
“Can anyone point to any other time in modern history where Hollywood & the mainstream media praised a movie and called it a ‘success’ for making just $12 million dollars on opening weekend?” Nasheed asked his followers on Twitter.

Nasheed blamed his Tubman movie critique as part of the reason for losing his Kickstarter crowdfunding to raise $200,000 for his Foundational Black American Conference 2020 in Atlanta.
Nasheed took to YouTube to lash out at Kickstarter for not giving him a clear reason why the crowdfunding was canceled.

Nasheed has since moved his crowdfunding efforts over to Indiegogo.com where he quickly raised $11,190 of his $200,000 goal.
