UNITED STATES SHOULDN'T DEFINE WHO A TERRORIST IS

Does the United States have the right to define who a terrorist is? In this video clip, podcaster Penuel, known as ‘The Black Pen,’ and Zimbabwe Anti-Sanctions Movement chairperson Rutendo Matinyarare discussed the hypocrisy.

In Hollywood blockbusters, bomb-dropping, gun-wielding villains are often portrayed as Arabs or Muslims, while criminals tend to be played by Africans. This racial profiling is also evident in the US system, as the white ruling elite has established rules of profiling under the pretence of protecting domestic security. In 2017, an FBI report referred to activists as part of a ‘Black Identity Extremist’ movement. Authorities have slapped domestic terrorism charges on activists participating in street protests.

@matinyarare (X) concluded by stating that a country that exterminated an Indigenous community to create a ‘white world’ is, in fact, a terrorist itself.
