    So RATM teamed up with the collective Ummah Chrome to come with this short documentary on white supremacy and what they call "a fire escape from the fiction known as whiteness."

    It's pretty thought-provoking, to say the least, I got to say.

    lol I’m an SJW because I posted something about Rage? Get a grip.

    I don’t even 100 % agree with what is being said. There’s some leaps of logic imo but the broader points are true.

    No hate bro. I’m just saying the farthest I’ll go with SJW is Em on Revival. He approached it properly on that album.

    Why the f--- did they steal Dilla and Q-Tip's Production Collective Name? Lmfao. About to listen to "Find My Way" for this very reason. Thanks, Rage Against The Machine. Smh.

    Their name was The Ummah which comes from Arabic and translates to the word "community." No one has a trademark on the word community.

    This collective is called The Ummah Chroma which translates to community of color.

    Yeah, way to derp yourself yet again.

    Dilla was the only member of The Ummah who wasn’t Muslim at the time and therefore had no real connection to the name. Ali Shaheed Mohammad and Q-Tip (who had recently converted at the time of the creation of group) in particular was behind the name.

    A bunch of MAGA people were blasting Rage not understanding that their entire existence as a band goes against everything represented by Trump and his followers lol

    Thought this was interesting in relation to Europeans and whiteness.
