@SpitzleyLuke @CoreyRYung so. a very small minority of black americans experienced a highly provisional and restrictive form of “citizenship” — essentially enough to *maybe* ensure they could not be kidnapped into slavery — and this therefore proves that “black citizenship was an open question” is false? — PolitiTweet.org

b-boy bouiebaisse @jbouie

@SpitzleyLuke @CoreyRYung So, when northern states began to systematically strip voting rights from free blacks in the 1820s, and forbid them from serving on juries, were they doing so despite black citizenship? — PolitiTweet.org

@SpitzleyLuke if one thing is considered the case in some states, and not considered the case in others, and that thing is a national category, then that thing is by definition “unsettled” or “an open question” — PolitiTweet.org

b-boy bouiebaisse @jbouie

@SpitzleyLuke @CoreyRYung So your view is that from 1788 to 1865, it was generally understood that free black people were citizens entitled to the rights of citizenship therein? — PolitiTweet.org

b-boy bouiebaisse @jbouie

@SpitzleyLuke yes, that’s what “unsettled” means — PolitiTweet.org

honestly i don’t think this is an assessment of my work (since that is very obviously false) as much as i am serving as a stand-in for “left-leaning black writer of some prominence” and then being dismissed on that basis — PolitiTweet.org
