After Trump's win, Black women are rethinking their role as America's reliable political organizers
AP via Yahoo ^ | 11/24/24 | Kenya Hunter

“America is going to have to save herself,” said LaTosha Brown, the co-founder of the national voting rights group Black Voters Matter.

She compared Black women’s presence in social justice movements as “core strategists and core organizers” to the North Star, known as the most consistent and dependable star in the galaxy because of its seemingly fixed position in the sky. People can rely on Black women to lead change, Brown said, but the next four years will look different.

“That’s not a herculean task that’s for us. We don’t want that title. … I have no goals to be a martyr for a nation that cares nothing about me,” she said.

Any race or ethnic or geographically defined human group that is closer to hunter gatherer or nomadic or mud hut stacked stone no wheel culture simply does not and has not performed in general as a group as well as those further down the pike of human achievement of commerce and government or what we call civilization

All you have to do is look around the world

We know who they are it’s in plain sight

How we elevated these loud not super bright people into positions of authority in media and politics reflects more on our weakness as the dominant group than it does their talent

I could not have said this here in 2000

But this mindset of relativism and diminishing western civilization to sate the shortcomings of minorities has about destroyed us

I saw good riddance to the ignorant hateful clarions of Whoopi and Sunny and Joy Reid and collaborators like Stelter and Behar and Maddie

Anyone is welcome to join us in restoring common sense but don’t blame me for the success of my ancestry over yours

They’re married to Uncle Sam.

Married? They're just Uncle Sam's baby mamas.

The black women political organizer cabal were happy to follow the Obozo into his sewer of racism and aggression of division. It’s time for crap to stop.

A bold change that needs to take place in the black community is a change to embracing the Bible and Christianity and to quit seeing church as a political and social group and their unChristian democratic party ministers as valid preachers for Christ.

LaTosha Brown, the co-founder of the national voting rights group Black Voters Matter.

Their group paid a lot of money for a big billboard on US101 in Phoenix-Scottsdale. The dang thing was so wordy you couldn't really read it well from the highway, and certainly not in time before the next LED sign replaced it.

However, it was something along the lines of "The Economy stinks, but Kamala has a plan for it". (paraphrase)

You can only have so much sh^t rained down on you before you punch up. The totalitarian communists ruling and tormenting the West have awakened a mighty beast and it will have its way - or there will be blood and it will still have its way.

They went too far and insisted too much. They were not happy with being equal, they wanted to be a superior class and enslave whites to do their bidding.

Racism in the USA is now primarily a black thang. There are a lot more blacks that would annihilate white people if they could, than the other way around.

I think that the Democratic party was founded by the families of Tory plantation owners who refused to leave when our Revolution ended because they didn’t want to give up their property.

Threatened to go back to Britain unless they got that 3/5th person thing. But that’s a piece of history that’s not mentioned anymore. The study of the writings and debates on the forming and passing of our Constitution should be taught in our public schools.

I am glad the likes of Stacy Abrams, Kamala Harris, Fani Willis, Leticia James, Donna Brazile - and Michelle Obama are not "leading change.

Those women are all entitled princesses who got that way by being promoted, employed, accepted into colleges, even married (in the case of Michelle) because of their race and not because of hard, smart work.

When you are given something you didn't earn, you conclude it must have been given to you because you are special...a little princess.

Imagine a national group called “White Voters Matter”.

It is impossible to even imagine such a group.

That is the double standard we live under every day.

Listen up girl (I PROMISE that there are ways to make ANY person listen, but can't post that here.), I, speaking for myself, will say that I have had ALL that can be tolerated by the foolish things that come out of your mouths and the evil actions that result from your black hearts.

I HONESTLY had a heartfelt LIKE for African Americans when I was young. Grew up in Asia and had NO beef with them. You had better listen to me now. After years of playing the race card, hating on whites for NO reason, leaving your women as single mothers, being involved in heinous crimes against whites AND your own kind, I have ZERO patience with ANY black activist. Just shoot me. Better dead than to listen to your filthy mouth. Get back to living a moral lide devoid of crime and we can be friebds and/or family.

However, you keep up with your problematic rhetoric and actions, renember you can not kill us all and someone is going to go Genghis Khan on you. You better listen.
