Jan 16, 2021 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.
Jan 16, 2021 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.
Jan 16, 2021 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.
Jan 17, 2021 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.
Jan 17, 2021 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.
Jan 17, 2021 Thanks for The Anthropological Lesson, Mr. Feenie. However, The King James Yancey didn't die for this sheeit, plehbwoay.
Jan 17, 2021 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.
Jan 17, 2021 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
Jan 17, 2021 Thought this was interesting in relation to Europeans and whiteness. https://www.theatlantic.com/magazine/archive/2016/05/how-islam-created-europe/476388/
