Gender Studies Professor – Black Women are Obese ‘cuz Trump

It's okay for Black Americans to support trump

Typically these sorts of cause and effect conversations begin with (insert name of anything) and end with ‘because of Global Warming.’ Sorry, Climate change. But it’s a new age. Donald Trump’s presidency is making black women obese.

Last month, Rutgers University gender studies professor Brittany Cooper appeared on an episode of the Oprah network’s show “Black Women OWN the Conversation.” … In case any of you missed it, she made the connection between President Trump’s policies and obesity rates among black women.

They can’t get good insurance or health care, and oh, by the way, “According to Cooper, “public health practitioners think that our stress responses in the body change our metabolism.”

“It’s literally that the racism you are experiencing and the struggle to make ends meet actually means the diet don’t work for you the same.”

First, Mr. Trump and his economy have resulted in record-low unemployment for minorities. Lower than any president in recent history. As in 50-60 years of recent history. If that’s not less stressful you’re doing it wrong.

Second, you are a gender studies professor. It is physically, culturally, and academically impossible for you to not be stressed out. If everything isn’t sexist, racist, or oppressive, you are out of a job.

That does not explain why black women are more prone to obesity, but neither does the presidency of Mr. Trump. Nor should anyone trust your ‘science’ given that your entire career is based on imagining that biology (a science) has no connection to gender. 

But if it makes you feel any better, obesity has been pegged as a potential cause – likely by the same expert minds – of climate change.
