I knew this one was a coming. First thing first. I'm not hear to fat sham, and some fat people do go on to live normal and healthy lives with weight. But complications from obesity such as Cancer, Diabetes, high blood pressure, breathing problems like asthma, and high cholesterol shortens life spans of those who have weight trouble.
At a Orpah segment for black women. An activist who is an gender studies expert explains why she is obese, and how she puts the blame on white racism and white supremacy for why black women in America are fat and over weight. I watched the video segment and it was super cringey. The woman puts blame on white supremacy and how she explains when black women experiences racism, that the matbolism changes and thus weight gain happens. I'm no fan of Trump either, but she also envokes and puts blame on the Trump era for black women on being obese or overweight aswell.
I can say that the AA community mainly those in poverty do not have the same access of healthy food, gyms, and healthcare compared to those who are average at best or those in the upper class strata. However simple health changes like 30 minutes of exercise, portion control and practicing a form of diet can improve vitality of ones own health.
I know racism is a big issue in America, and those that be want to solve race issue, however obesity affects all people. Simple healthy changes starts with the individual, and not because of Trump and White Supremacy forcing you to eat unhealthy foods.
Well, it’s probably true that if white people didn’t bring her slave ancestors to America, she would probably be starving to death in Africa, so....
I tend to concur with this woman, OP. Fat, blubber, obesity, cholesterol, health problems, and unhealthy foods are in fact racist and white supremacist. Reparations are in immediate order.

I knew this was one coming down the barrel. I knew that someone was going to blame white supremacy for why black people are fat. If so why is obesity a problem in other communities such as the white community, native American community for example suffers from high rates of diabetes. I wonder if Nabisco, Mon Santo, Del Monte and others will pay reparations for obesity in Black America?
If anything the man who she envokes and dislikes loves Fast Food as much as she does.
