[An American sent me this, along with his own comments. I find it hard to believe that Queen Elizabeth was a symbol of White supremacy. I've never seen anything coming from the Royal Family in the UK that indicates that. In fact, look at Meghan who is a non-White who married into the family. If the Queen was really against it, I'm sure she could have stopped it. These Blacks in America are just very spoilt and they see "racism" and "supremacy" where there is none. If the Queen was a racists and supremacist, I would have been a big supporter of her. But I saw NOTHING that indicated to me that she was anything of the sort. None of the worthless Royal Family in modern times are racial to the detriment of Britain. Jan]

MSNBC guest claims Queen Elizabeth symbolized ‘white supremacy’: ‘Not sure why I should be sad today’

‘Royalists and the monarchy represented the racism that my generation faced,’ Kehinde Andrews claimed

By Gabriel Hays | Fox News

Birmingham City University professor Kehinde Andrews told MSNBC anchor Ali Velshi that he wasn’t sad about the passing of Queen Elizabeth II because she represented "white supremacy" and "colonialism."

(Andrews is of British African-Caribbean heritage. He earned a PhD. in Sociology and Cultural Studies from the University of Birmingham in 2011. His thesis was entitled "Back to Black: Black Radicalism and the Supplementary School Movement")

The professor made his comments during Velshi’s Saturday MSNBC special, titled "Remembering Queen Elizabeth II." Velshi, who seemed quite keen on discussing the British monarchy’s history of "colonialism" during the memorial, prompted Andrews by asking, "How do you express colonialism? What’s the short form of the effect of colonialism today? Was it bad?"

After Velshi quickly added, "I draw the conclusion that yes, it was bad," Professor Andrews responded, saying, "Of course colonialism’s bad. It was terrible. And if you just look at a map of the world by GDP per capita, the poorest countries today are in so-called sub-Saharan Africa where the black people live, and the richest countries are the west where the white people live."
British professor Kehinde Andrews told MSNBC anchor Ali Velshi he has no affection for Queen Elizabeth II because she represented "white supremacy."

British professor Kehinde Andrews told MSNBC anchor Ali Velshi he has no affection for Queen Elizabeth II because she represented "white supremacy."

"We literally have a world which is in the image of white supremacy," he declared.

He then blamed the British monarchy for this, saying this white supremacist world "came from the colonial era, and the Royal Family unfortunately, and the Queen in particular, symbolize that system." He continued, "That’s one of the reasons she’s so popular, is cause she is a throwback to those colonial times when Britain was great and when Britain dominated the world."

"And you cannot separate that history from the poverty that we see around the world today."

Later on in the segment, Velshi asked Andrews to comment on whether you can hold "these two thoughts," that "You can like the Queen, you can honor the fact that someone has passed," and that "she didn’t forsake the institution that was responsible for colonialism."

Andrews revealed he didn’t have to reconcile the two thoughts because he’s not fond of the Queen. "I don’t have any affection for the Queen, and that’s nothing personal against her. I don’t know her, none of us know her, right? And it’s sad that someone’s passed away but that affection doesn’t exist for many of us," he admitted.

MSNBC anchor Ali Velshi teed Andrews up to slam British colonialism during his Saturday segment on the death of Queen Elizabeth II.

(Velshi was born in Nairobi, Kenya, and raised in Toronto, Ontario, after moving there in 1971. He is an Ismaili Muslim of Gujarati Indian descent.)

He explained that his grandmother "grew up in colonial Jamaica" and was "taught to revere the Queen. She had a picture of the Queen on her wall until she died," he mentioned, before explaining how his generation doesn’t share that reverence at all.

"But we grew up very different. We understood what the Queen was," he claimed, adding, "Royalists and the monarchy represented the racism that my generation faced."

Re-addressing Velshi’s question, Andrews explained, "There is no conflict. We don’t – we never have seen the Queen as someone who represents us, as someone who should represent us. And she has died and it’s sad, but there is literally no conflict."

Andrews noted, "This is somebody who represented white supremacy and colonialism, and as you said, didn’t give reparations, didn’t give up her wealth, didn’t give up her power. She reveled in it."

"And I’m not sure why I should be sad today, and millions of us in this country have exactly the same feeling as me, I would say," the professor concluded.
