Kehinde Andrews with Russell Brand on Under the Skin - I Couldn't Even Finish It

Early on Kehinde Andrews passingly states that “Trump is clearly racist” without expounding on that hideous accusation. He then rudely denigrates Candice Owens, stating that she “looks at a couple of things on YouTube videos and reads a bit of a book by Milton Friedman and wants to come up and say she has a philosophy”. He also resorts to that all too boring slur that what she says is “dangerous”.

As a self proclaimed Malcolm X supporter who denounces Martin Luther King’s identity politics of common humanity and apparently condones Malcolm’s accusation that King is an “Uncle Tom”.

It was shortly after Kehinde Andrew talked about Islam as a religion of peace and went on to state that the entire West is racist (cherrypicking and perverting certain events in history to feebly back up this outlandish statement) that I stopped listening. I endured 14 minutes of what played as a parody of everything against which I now rail, but could take no more.
