It’s called Gaslighting.

Crews replied, “I agree.
I’m not discussing white people here.
there are ‘gatekeepers of Blackness’ within our own community who decide who’s Black and who’s not.

Actor Orlando Jones commented, “Black supremacy?
We represent 13% of US population, hold no institutional power & gaslight our coworkers.
We got 99 problems and your math isn’t the only 1.”
