Black National Convention Ratifies Platform Seeking Black Liberation– ‘America Does Not Value Black Lives’
Breitbart ^ | 8/29/2020

Posted on 08/29/2020 1:00:05 PM PDT by Altura Ct.

On Friday night, radical Black Lives Matter (BLM) activists held a Black National Convention, which aimed to “reach and engage four million Black voters across the US, build infrastructure of Black political engagement that transcends the 2020 election season, and create and ratify a policy platform for the first 100 days of the next administration.”

Tens of thousands participated Friday in the virtual 2020 Black National Convention (BNC) hosted by the Movement for Black Lives (M4BL), a coalition that includes dozens of radical organizations including Black Lives Matter (BLM).

The live stream was the first national political convention for black Americans in nearly 50 years and was intended to create “a vision for Black Lives before the biggest election of our time, and long after,” according to M4BL’s website.

Friday’s broadcast included policy proposals on issues such as voter suppression, reproductive rights, housing insecurity, public education inequality, and inter-communal violence, according to its agenda which was shared exclusively with the Associated Press.

Organized by the radical defund-the-police-promoting Electoral Justice Project (EJP), a project of M4BL that focuses on electoral strategy, the 2020 BNC focused on organizing black political power through the political process in order to ensure community demands are met.

“The uprising in the wake of George Floyd’s murder and countless other murders from police and vigilante violence along with the alarming Black death rate due to COVID-19 has exposed what we can no longer hide—America does not value Black lives,” said M4BL organizer and political strategist Jessica Byrd, who leads the Electoral Justice Project (EJP). “But we also know that rising up and taking action is how Black communities have secured our rights and dignity throughout this nation’s divided history.”

Many urban blacks don’t value any life. To many of them there seems to be some desire to kill and maim other people.

Wait. I’ve think I’ve seen this movie. Freed blacks go to a country set up just for them. Liberia. How’s that working out?

That is a big lie. No nation is less racist than the United States of America.

They won't. That would take some degree of effort. Besides, they wouldn't get all the free sh*t they get here. Far easier to grip, bitch, whine, loot, burn, riot, and gang up on elderly or very young people.

Thing about pendulums, though, is that they WILL swing. and after they've swung one direction and reached their apex, they WILL swing back the other way. God help them when that happens. In fact, it's beginning to happen now.

If course, if there was a “white national convention” people would be attacked as the worst racists on the planet.

But this is allowed because, you know, they’re special. They’re victims.

So much for that “color blind society” thing, huh?

If you’re a decent human being and not threatening or injuring or murdering anyone, I care immensely about you. However, if your a DemoNaziCommie / Burn, Loot, and Murder street gangster then no, I really can’t say that your well- being is very high on my priority list.

How many of those non-racist European countries have non-Caucasian presidents and prime ministers again?

Organized by the radical defund-the-police-promoting ‘Electoral Justice Project’....says it’s just another political group deceptively misleading the black population.

Frankly I’m glad I can easily turn off their protests and demands....and they’re right I no longer ‘care’ what they want.
