Van Jones is so obtuse, he doesn’t realize how much is part of that constructing and maintaining that narrative.

Protecting and maintaining Black dysfunction is the foundation of Democrat Power.

Van better be careful.

The last prominent African-American who acknowledged the black-on-black violence across the US was Bill Cosby.

Look what happened to him. 🤨

Didn’t realize that the Rev-Runts JJ and Al were part of the Media...

Ditto for BLM.

FYI Van, constant race baiting doesn’t solve the problem but yet you and nearly every black leader in the country do only that.

Thats true. And especially if it happens in an election year.

Clue for you, Mr. Jones:
The media doesn’t care about black kids getting killed at all. Not one bit.
All they care about is fomenting hatred among groups, which is in the Marxist playbook.
They couldn’t care less about a black kid dying.

I would love to know how many Blacks are killed by White Suprema Supremacist? How many Blacks are killed by Whites in self defense?

... it’s untrue that “the black community only cares about a black kid getting killed if a white cop does it or a white supremacist does it,” it is true that “The media only cares” about black children being killed if a white police officer or a racist white person is the killer. Jones responded, “It happens every Sunday in every black church. It happens every Saturday in every basketball program. … [W]hen you have people like pastor Carl Day…and others, they leave the church and they go out there and they get no credit, they get no support. I agree with you, the amount of self-inflicted harm, there’s a suicide crisis among young white kids and a homicide crisis among young black kids, and we’re not doing enough about either one and we should be doing a lot more.”

WHOA - totally weird agreeing with Van Jones on anything...but he's right. And you're right the 'press' see the truth as a dog bites man story and chooses not to cover it.

“how many blacks in the USA have been murdered by genuine “White Supremacists” in the last twenty years. How many blacks murdered by other blacks?”

And how many whites have been murdered by blacks, versus how many blacks have been murdered by whites (“white supremacists” or otherwise)? Adjust those numbers for percentage of the population, and see what you get.

When he says, “we’re not doing enough about it” the thing he needs to do something about is the entire black culture. It’s a violent, tribal, self-destructive culture. The suicide crisis among whites is due to society telling them being male is toxic, being white is racist and all sorts of other bad images. There isn’t one solution. It’s a thousand tiny things. Among blacks it’s shaming girls who get pregnant, so it stops happening. Oh, shaming bad! Can’t do that. It’s also the government has to stop paying for unmarried women to have children. I sat in a food court watching an overdressed black woman in what looked like a barber’s chair getting her skin oiled and rubbed with what looked like a dental floss. Outside numerous screaming stairstep children waited for her. It’s hard to imagine a married woman with six children spending even a dollar for such a treatment. Things like that only happen when someone else is paying for it.

Van Jones should look in the mirror.
He has a background that can get the attention of the media.
Van Jones did 0bambi’s bidding to weaponize numerous Federal agencies.
An oil tanker can’t be turned or stopped easily.
The glorification of the hood life is just a cultural thing?
I expect Van Jones will continue to blame Whitey and Trump for everything.

You're right on this Gen.Blather - it's "culture/marriage/family" death by a 'thousand cuts'.

That said, most of the toxic incentives were put in place by LBJ and if the amount of cash offered had been higher his destruction of the black marriage/family culture would have extended and included the destruction of the white marriage/family culture.
