Abdullah makes a practice of tweeting in favor of racial separatism despite the fact much of her family is white. In a July 6, 2019 tweet, Abdullah complained that she was “compelled to step off the sidewalk three times during my 30-minute walk so that White folks and their dogs could pass.” She continued: “Got me feeling like #gentrification is #JimCrow revisited.”
In a June 18, 2021 tweet, Abdullah wrote that “White folks don’t get
to come to the #Juneteenth barbecue,” which she clarified in a later
tweet was a “CELEBRATION DAY for Black people” and “PAY REPARATIONS DAY
for white folks…”
During the 2020 Democratic presidential
debates, Abdullah declared, “Nobody White should ever refer to the
nation of Niger. Periodt. (sic)”
