Washington Post opinion columnist Karen Attiah raised eyebrows on social media Tuesday when she argued that “many will not survive” unless there is a shift in cultural and political systems in the country.
In a lengthy thread on X, Attiah said the last few months have been “clarifying” after referencing the ongoing war in Gaza. She went on to warn “marginalized communities” and minorities to “divest” from institutions and systems in the U.S. and enter into a “self-preservation” mode, arguing that it’s clear they “will not save us.”
Attiah pointed to the decision by the University of Southern California (USC) to cancel a Muslim valedictorian’s speech at the school’s graduation ceremony after a series of anti-Israel social media posts she allegedly made were discovered.
Attiah was born in Texas to a Nigerian-Ghanaian mother and Ghanaian father, and has repeatedly posted on social media against Israel, and in support of Palestinians.
Below is Attiah’s entire social media rant she posted Tuesday:
For decades, we were told “Never Again” to genocide and mass atrocities. The Holocaust. Rwanda. Bosnia. Darfur.
We were taught to spot the warning signs–dehumanizing rhetoric, violence, forced depopulation, and the destruction of culture. We were told to speak out and act.
Watching the silence, censorship, racism, and hypocrisies on to the assault, starvation, and depopulation of Palestinians in Gaza is revealing.
Too many consume history as stimulating entertainment, neatly packaged for movies, classes, and museums. Not as something to act on.

What is happening @USC shows that the credibility/legitimacy of many liberal institutions died in Gaza.
Western journalistic objectivity died in Gaza. True academic freedom died in Gaza. Do we see how much violence it takes to uphold an imperial status quo?
Those of us who are minorities or come from marginalized communities— I hope the last few months have been clarifying.
Our governments will not save us. Our institutions will not save us. People of color in high places will not save us. Only we can save us. Adjust accordingly.

Many Black and other PoC are going to withdraw/ divest from these systems and go into self + community preservation mode.
Storms are gathering. We keep trying to educate white folks especially on how to build new shelters, but they keep holding on to old, broken tools.
Some of us are using new tools, and will try to build new shelters. Many will not survive what is ahead of us if our cultural and political systems don’t change course.

Doubling down, she bizarrely suggested “slave rebellions.”
Kindly look up slave rebellions

In November 2023, Attiah slammed the United States and Israel in another social media rampage:
What Israel and the US are doing in real time to Palestinians activate very recent, unhealed trauma around Western violence against Africans, Black Americans, Native Americans, Muslims, and pretty much the entire Global South. But they don’t want us to talk about that.
And Western brutality includes victimizing Jews! But it is easier to paint Arab and Black people as the face of anti-Semitism because it’s easier and safer than challenging White, European Christian supremacy and it’s driven so much violence against all of us.

Instead we are supposed to watch the carnage silently. Grateful that to be comfortable in the west and not the ones being bloodied. And we let the adults in the room handle the “Palestinian problem.” Even though many of us were once a “problem” or a “question” to be solved.
And that’s what people are mad at. To center the suffering that Palestinians are going through, and have been going through long before Oct 7. They want you to believe that seeing them as humans means erasing Israelis. When it’s their government that’s failing both groups.

Islam is NOT compatible with Western Culture. The only alternative is to change ‘your’ culture.
