More often than not, the Black men who positioned themselves at the forefront of Black liberation movements or discourse have failed to recognize the ways in which their rhetoric completely ignores entirely or degrades Black women. Instead of acknowledging these weaknesses in leadership, many of these men have chosen to attack feminism, the idea that promotes equality among the sexes.

For some reason these men have interpreted the quest for equality among the sexes to somehow threaten not only their positions but the Black community at large.

We saw something like this when writer Torraine Walker fired off this tweet.

Rapper and activist Killer Mike agreed, posting this.

In response, several people took the rapper to task for suggesting that Black women were being manipulated by White women in the quest for their own rights. See what they had to say about him and men like him on the following pages.
