A quick thought about The Democratic Party

The Democratic Party's blatant lack of regard for Black Americans & BLACK SPECIFIC ISSUES is reaching new heights. 100,000 Michigan Voters voted Uncommitted in the Primary. It's estimated that 9,000 came from Dearborn, but Governor Gretchen Wihitmer, Congresswoman Debbie Dingell, & Michael Moore ALL went out of their way to avoid talking about Detroit, Flint, & Lansing. How many of those 91,000 votes came from there? Mainstream Media is trying to shift the voter apathy narrative to Gaza, but Arab Americans IN TOTAL only make up 1% of the population. Young Adults don't traditionally vote in Primaries (in large #s), so WHO is responsible for this phenomenon?

Following the Primary, Kamala Harris visited Selma, AL & walked across the Edmond Pettus Bridge. This was supposed to be a TRIBUTE to the Blackfolk that were beaten bloody 59Yrs ago (Bloody Sunday), but Kamala Harris spent her time talking (emphatically) about Gaza- It's Mother Emmanuel Church all over again. The Black Church enjoys a 501c3 Tax Exempt status, in return for NOT getting involved in Politics. In Reality, Black Churches are being used for a Democratic Agenda that addresses EVERYONE but their Black parishioners... When are We supposed to say that We're insulted by the callous disrespect on Both Sides?

Joe Biden 'Powered Up' to give what could be his last State Of The Union Address. In it, he made several overtures to Women. He makes his Case for Ukraine, Immigration Reform, & Aid to Gaza; he even tells the LGBTQ... Community that he's 'got their back' (where did We hear THAT before?). Then he glosses over the 59th Anniversary of the March on Selma's Edmond Pettus Bridge, stressing the need for Voting Rights(?!). Joe Biden is 'Old enough' to know that Selma was about Equality & The Right Of Expression. 59Yrs later, Selma, AL remains poverty stricken. The bridge in question, is still named after a KKK Leader. THIS has been the Democratic Party's Legacy w/ Black America- broken promises & blatant disrespect. I am constantly reminded of an editorial that I read in a 1898 Wilmington, NC Newspaper that stated:

"The Democratic Party never has & never will stand for the Uplift of Black People"... Action speaks louder than Words.

The DNC & their Proxies can ignore Black America's Issues if they want, but We have reached CRITICAL MASS Family! Black Political Awareness is nearly back to 1968 levels, which scares these people to death. The Streets are talking about The Black Agenda & the need for Lineage Based Reparations for American Descendants Of Chattel Slavery. Press on Young Fam! We were distracted by The Cosby Show (Scholastic Achievement) & Gangsta Rap (Ghetto Fabulousness), but y'all AREN'T falling for the Oakey Doke. I am personally proud of Our Young Lions & Lionesses speaking Truth to Power unapologetically & learning how to Do for Self.

-The Real Ones got Ur backs!

Putting Byron Donalds' comments in perspective

I have listened to Rep. Byron Donalds' comments regarding 'Jim Crow' & I don't get all the furor surrounding them. I heard the Man speak about MARRIAGE RATES being higher during the Jim Crow Era than it is Today. He also said that the rise in Black Marriages in recent Years, is a good thing for Our Children & the prospect of building Generational Wealth. I'm not a Republican, but I acknowledge that Black American Culture has traditionally been Socially Liberal & Morally Conservative. Black Americans were predominantly Republican during The Jim Crow Era, but I don't know if it means that Blackfolk were 'Conservative'. If We're being honest, Most of Our Family weren't allowed to Vote. I assume Rep Donalds means 'Family Values' were more conservative, & he would B correct. Black Households w/ both parents tend to B more conservative than Single Parent Households.

I find House Minority Leader, Hakeem Jeffries & Democratic National Committee (DNC) Chair, Jaime Harrison disingenuous w/ their comments implying Rep. Donalds' said that Black America was BETTER OFF under Jim Crow. I didn't hear him say that in his comments. I understand the politics behind their statements; Rep. Donalds is among Donald Trump's considerations for Vice President. His comments can legitimately B seen as an effort to gain favor w/ Trump, in regard to attracting Black Voters. That said, Hakeem Jeffries should spend more time on his Brooklyn Constituents & less time on political muckraking. For The Record, i'm NOT a Fan of Byron Donalds. I disagree w/ him more than I agree. That said, I can understand what he was trying to say. If Democrats were saying: Rep. Donalds is implying that as the Black Marriage Rate rises, We can expect more of them to turn to the GOP- They would have a legitimate argument.

As bad as Hakeem Jeffries & Jaime Harrison were in twisting The Narrative, Joy Reid & Abby Phillips took it further. Both acknowledged that Rep. Donalds didn't say Blackfolk were 'better off' during Jim Crow, but both used their platform to create nonsensical scenarios. Joy Reid accused Byron Donalds of implying that Jim Crow was a 'Golden Era' for Black Americans, & she questioned Black Men of the Jim Crow Era's ability to protect their Families. She cited a 1943 Florida Case (Willie Howard) where a lynch mob forced a Man to watch his son drown at gun point. I found her scenario Off Topic, Callous, & COMPLETELY in Bad Taste; especially coming from someone who doesn't have a Family History of experiencing Jim Crow. Abby Phillips implied Rep. Donalds was referring to a Nostalgic Period when Black America voted Conservatively. I could go along w/ Abby's narrative more, if she allowed Rep Donalds to fully explain his position. Both she & Joy Reid spoke over him & didn't really give him a chance to make his argument.

What bothers me the most about this Whole Thing, is how simple minded Democrats & their Shills think the Black American Collective are. They purposely twisted Byron Donalds' comments w/ the intent of gaslighting Us into rejecting a 'Black Republican' & his obvious Agenda. Rep. Donalds has made some pretty outlandish & Simp Worthy comments, so he doesn't really need their help. On top of that, Black Americans posess Reading Comprehension; We know how to draw Our own conclusions & don't require spoon feeding by Democrats & their Shills. The ongoing effort by Dems to tell Blackfolk How to Think Politically is beyond insulting. Black America is NOT a Monolith; among Us are Democrats, Republicans, Independents, Libertarians, Progressives, Conservatives, Socialists, & Non Party Affiliates. We have multiple ideologies, but We can ALL 'Agree to Disagree', & coalesce around Core Issues that are important to Us as a Collective.

The 'All Lives Matter' conversation about American Marriage Rates & Family Structure over the decades is very true, but Rep. Donalds was speaking to Blackfolk in Philly about the Black American Dynamic. Abby Phillips & Joy Reid's insertion of Everyone Else comes across like a diversion away from yet another Black Specific Issue. The focus on the horrors of Jim Crow only, & not on the fact that Black Marriage Rates actually were higher before 1968, is pure politics. The effect of LBJ's 'Great Society' on Black Families can B debated, but NO ONE can deny that Democratic Policies over the last 50Yrs have done more harm to Us than good. Once thriving Black Communities are being gentrified on a Nationwide scale. Black Home Ownership is back down to 1968 levels. Blackfolk are politically mature enough to listen to All Sides of an Argument & draw Our Own conclusion.

We don't have to agree w/ Byron Donalds' Politics to acknowledge the fact that the Black Marriage Rate fell dramatically after 1968. His fatal error, was obviously referring to the Jim Crow Era BY NAME; as a Timeline for comparison of Black Marriage Percentages. In retrospect, I think that he would just give the Years in question.

Yvette Carnell makes a good point. Arab Americans R holding The Biden Administration's feet 2 The Fire, & getting a proper response. If they can effect THIS kind of action representing roughly 1% of The Population, WHAT should We put into effect w/ 13.6%(+) of The Population? It's long overdue 4 Us 2 penalize Every Politician that fails 2 effect Our Agenda in Our Districts... It's Time 2 Clean House!

The CBC doesn't represent Us; they represent the various Lobbies that fund their Campaigns. This is why people like Rep. James Clyburn can shout curses @ Us, when We ask about 'his' Black Agenda (other than 10/20/30 Plan), or Lineage based Reparations. No One is advocating 4 Indigenous Black Americans, & the influx of MILLIONS of Illegal Immigrants over the last 36 Months has forced Our Hand- Political Traitors 2 Our Community must B removed from Office!

The Arab American Community is giving Us a valuable lesson. They R showing Us that it doesn't take All of Us 2 effect Real Change, just enough of Us willing 2 Stand On Our Square... Young Family already showed they can persevere. Yvette was correct when she said: 'Our Ancestors died 4 The Right 2 Vote, NOT The Right 2 Vote Democrat'. Remember Fam, Voting IS a quid pro quo- They gotta GIVE 2 GET.

Kudos 2 Family in Chicago & the Community of Austin 4 standing up 2 the bullyism of Mayor Brandon Johnson. His unnecessary 60 Day closure of Amundsen Park was an obvious retaliation 2 Ur rejection of converting Ur Park into an Illegal Immigrant Encampment. We KNOW that Family in Chicago is about 2 Set It Off! Decades of disrespect have taught ALL of Us that We can't trust Our Political Representatives; They have 2 Show & Prove!

Brandon Johnson's disregard 4 his Own Neighborhood has likely doomed him & the Illinois Democratic Party.

-Sucks 2 B them.

Reality Check:

Straight out a background

frowned upon by The Mainstream

& made 2 think 'Success' is just a Dream

Cuz Reality speaks

when I walk thru The Streets

& see the Brothers,

The Others had a chance 2 reach

Check it- 33% of Strong Black Males

don't get a chance 2 prevail

cuz They were Felons in Jail

Some were Prisoners Of War

that fought 4 The Cause

2 empower The People

but The People chose 2 pause

As Laws were broke & necks got choked

Bourgeois Leaders still spoke

some shit about 'Hope'

Shifting the Fight, from 'Civil' 2 Human Rights

giving Other Groups light

2 benefit from Our plight

& Overnight They seemed 2 GROW

as We remained The Same

Now 2day, U see Them playing

'The Oppression Game'

& still Our leaders wanna talk about 'Integrate'

Killing Our Culture, while making Others 'Great'

Self Determination, no deviation

is the Solution

Some call it Revolution

SOMEDAY

Dreaming of a Time when I see Prosperity

watching My Community

rising Economically

Aware of the schemes used

2 keep Us Oppressed

Set Our Eyes on The Prize

then proceed 2 Progress

Black Pride in Our stride

when confronting The 'Other Man'

w/ Heads pointed high-

Proof We don't give a damn!

About The Views that 'He' has concerning Us

We're no longer listening

He'll no longer B turning Us

Into Our enemies

while He pretends that He's

in No Way responsible

4 Our animosity

Towards one another

while He's The Instigator

Full of hate of Ourselves

so animosity's greater

Quick 2 pull a Brother down

than pat him on the back

If We wish 2 persist

We need 2 stop The Attack!

It's Time 2 feed The Mind

we're KNOWN 4 Intellect

But 2 keep Us Oppressed-

it's best 2 make Us 4get

About The Glory of Our Motherland

think that Another Man

A Greek or Roman

did the Work of Atlanteans...

Divided & Conquered

The Process was clever

The Situation's grim y'all-

We GOTTA get 2gether!
