Open Letter to Food Not Bombs

Take your gender binary and shove it. Fuck you."

    "queer, trans, autonomous, anti-authoritarian, anarchist, black, brown, and mad as hell."

    Yeah? Go tell that to the New Black Panthers if your so keen on fighting heterosexism and homophobia! Maybe they'll do the world a favour and pound your proud to be a victim ass to death! Fuck you too.

  3. With that kind of a mindset, you are never going to get any results you want. FNB just serves free food, they aren't some evil conspiracy out to get you and your "better" fellows. What I don't get with many antiracist and feminist movements is all of the alienation that goes on to the other side. I used to consider myself a part of both, but honestly I couldn't stand the pretentiousness and double standards that I saw. And when I go around not caring about my gender identity or not even knowing my racial background, what am I to do? We all are people, simple as that. How we look has really nothing to do with our nature, and that is something everyone, especially you, really need to grasp.

  4. "Fuck you is my response to white charity."

    So, when white people do bad things, you bitch at us, but when we do good things, you still bitch at us. I don't see your ungrateful ass out there helping the needy. I love how you say that white racists need to be called out (because apperantly they're everywhere) but you don't say a goddamn thing about the black panthers who do the same damn thing.

    "Food Not Bombs should die. Only in a world where white supremacy is sustained and maintained is there room for FNB."

    Food Not bombs is nothing but a charity. It's not "DA WHITE MAN TRYING TO GET YOU DOWN".

    "I DO have a problem with white people."

    Why? What did I as white girl ever do to you? If some white person hurt you or your family in the past, then I'm very sorry. But you need to move past it, because this hate will one day be the death of you.

  5. Hey,

    As a mixed-race kid I recognise a lot in your critique - but being involved in Food not Bombs did a lot to politicize me, even if I wouldn't do the same things now.

    Maybe there are other outposts of white supremacy that are a little more pressing to take on than FNB?

  6. "Maybe there are other outposts of white supremacy that are a little more pressing to take on than FNB?"

    Now that I agree with for sure. I don't think FNB is necessarily on kilwaii's top priority list though, just because they wrote a searing critique.

  7. you're pretty right on here. i'm sure these fucking people who are so in disagreement with you are those very same kids you are trying to call out and address for their shitty, entitled behavior. fuck all of you who commented on this thoughtful critique with your bullshit whining. one of you sounds like you stepped out of your klan meeting just to comment on this.
    love and rage!

  8. You fucking dick-face faggot motherfucker. I swear this is the reason I don't deal with a majority of black people... They're fucking paranoid! Can't you see past color for one minute, dumbass?! No wonder no one likes black people... You're destroying your own race, idiot!!! Hate will ultimately destroy the black race..
