A woman intentionally crashed her car into what she thought was a Jewish school because she was angry about the Israel-Hamas war, Indianapolis police said.
However, the building Almaghtheh crashed into is not, in fact, a Jewish school. The Anti-Defamation League says the Israelite School of Universal and Practical Knowledge is in fact an extremist organization that is anti-Israel and antisemitic.
I don’t know who Jada is, but that sort of thing I usually see more associated with Nation of Islam, which is a different movement but has a similar general trajectory.
The simpler answer, though, is that I think people want to view Cleopatra as an empowering figure because she was rather subversive for her time. Cleopatra was the ruler of Egypt, Egypt is part of Africa, and she is therefore the most prominent African queen. There were plenty of black people in Egypt even in the ancient days, too, so I think some people love to imagine the possibility that Cleopatra was black.
But it just conveniently ignores the truth that not only was the Ptolemaic dynasty Greek, but they were legendarily incestuous. Not much “outside influence” in those genes, I’d reckon.
For those unaware, this organization promotes the ideology that Kanye West has been espousing for the past few years.
Which batshit theory was that?
This one
Is this what Jada is and why she made that documentary about Cleopatra being black, despite all proof to the contrary?

Everything he says
But like, specifically in this case.
That’s hilarious.
Regret that she didn’t do more damage.
