The shocking thing about Ciccorioello-Maher’s tweet “All I Want for Christmas is White Genocide.” is that based on his ideology and his choice of influences, Professor Ciccorioello-Maher appears to mean it.

Many ex-slaves said they were treated worse by their new leaders (being forced into defacto slavery for, among other things, involuntary labor building a large palace for Henri Christophe). Two of the first "black" leaders were assassinated while the third (Christphe) committed suicide to avoid it.
