Your tone is extremely condescending. I chose the emoji because it is rude.

You could read my works. My latest essay that addresses Drexciya and UR and 
Moodymann and revolution is getting some pretty good reviews. 

I already shared the book in an earlier email. I’m arrogant, but not arrogant 
enough to post the link again. 

Also, I don’t care about 1 or 10 or 50 white people who are bigots, you’re all 
the same to me. I’m not gonna waste my energy debating with you about who you 
are. And I have to look like you. It sux. 😢
