Today, my review of Ta-Nehisi Coates’ hateful screed, ‘The Message’ is up on Front Page Magazine.

A key part of it focuses on Coates selling out ‘blackness’ on which he built his brand for wokeness.

Coates got famous for being able to find racism everywhere, including when a white woman pushed past his son in a Manhattan movie theater elevator.

“I was only aware that someone had invoked their right over the body of my son,” Coates whined in Between the World and Me. “There was my own insecurity in my ability to protect your black body… I came home shook.”

Ta-Nehisi Coates took a break from writing bad comic books and took his incredibly fragile body to Israel where he discovered the racism of black Israeli soldiers.

“There were ‘Black’ soldiers everywhere lording their power over the Palestinians, many of whom would, in America, have been seen as ‘white’,” Coates fumed, discovering that “race is a species of power and nothing else”.

But in this moment, Coates officially makes the sacrifice of trading blackness for wokeness, race as a living reality for race as a subset of Marxist power analysis. It’s every bit as potent as feminists who have spent generations denouncing men suddenly deciding that men can be women as long as they give up their toxic masculinity, put on a pantsuit and identify as ‘women’.

Beyond the black soldiers, there were black people murdered by Hamas on Oct 7. Here are some of them.

What of the ‘black body’ of Joshua Loitu Mollel, a Tanzanian agricultural intern who was kidnapped and killed by Hamas, who only wanted to return home and become one of Tanzania’s most successful farmers? What of Clemence Mtenga, also of Tanzania, another potential hostage, who turned out to be dead?

After Oct. 7, Coates co-signed a letter which claimed that “on Saturday, after sixteen years of siege, Hamas militants broke out of Gaza.” When they ‘broke out’, they killed Joshua and Clemence, along with Adam Brema of Sudan, Wolderaphael Hagos Berhe and Goytum Jabrahiwat of Eritrea, and unknown numbers of other black men.

But their ‘black bodies’ don’t matter to Ta-Nehisi Coates whose first allegiance is not to black people or their bodies, but to the Left which stands behind their killers.
