A Facebook post supporting Black films and artists, and calling out the racism embedded into the Academy Award nomination process, was removed by the social network for violating “community standards.” Anti-Intellect, a DC based social media educator and activist, is not shy about calling out White supremacy whenever and wherever it manifests, and the bastion of White privilege known as the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences is no exception. Son of Baldwin stated Facebook feels some type of way about anti-racist conversations. Meanwhile, search “RIP Trayboon Martin” on Facebook. That racist page has been reported thousands of times and it’s still up. So you can be racist on Facebook, but you can’t be critical of racism. Got it.
