Kin Camell "So Ill Social Constructs"

 Between living in Oakland Ca, Marin County and Anchorage Ak I've observed that privilege akin to entitlement . Privileges are often inherited as opposed to being worked for therefore entitlement is a common symptom  possessed by socio-economic privilege societies.

Due to social constructs often evolving around image and consumerism the American Dream is an allusion frequently resulting in debt, depression and divorce. Mass media projects the allusion that The American Dream (American Idol,Who Wants To Be A Millionaire,  The Voice etc) is highly attainable if you can entertain.


Other popular mass syndicated mainstream shows such as ; The Big Bang Theory,  Seinfield and Friends reinforce hegemonic ideologies and generally emphasize happiness (The American Dream) is not available to the average working class person (only wealthy Caucasian men)

American Dream being a farce or unattainable like the horse with the carrot. History has clearly demonstrated that the U.S has a tendency to discriminate against melanated people and women .

I used to peacefully protest against police brutality until I felt it wasn't being effective so I began a one man revolution using my pen as a weapon. I often feel that mainstream media has concluded that critical race theory is a conspiracy as opposed to being an objective perspective supporting credible reliable sources. White Supremacy has been normalized and those brave enough to act out or speak out against it like Haiti, Paul Robeson, Assata Shskur, Dr Huey P Newton, Malcom X, Billie Holiday,  Abbey Lincoln, Peter Tosh, Dr Angela Davis and Nipsey Hussle you get neutralized .


White Supremacy includes ; colonialism, convict leasing system, the 13 amendment, The Tuskegee Experiment and the mass prison industrial complex. These organized institutions keep a few greedy blood suckers in power and the domestic terrorism i.e  The Capital Riot, The 8 Asian spa workers who were shot and killed yesterday, Dylan Roof killing church goers , The Shooting in Kenosha, George Floiyd, Oscar Grant, .Sean Bell, Sandra Bland, Mike Brown, Orlando Castille and Breanna Taylor.

Social constructs specifically in the workplace (wage gaps) are a byproduct of Capitalism which fuels narrow minded perceptions (ignorance) and neglects to acknowledge how unjust the labor sector is being treated. Unfortunately these factors lead to false stereotypes such as immigrants are taking jobs or spreading viruses.
