Why aren't Blackfolk feeling Kamala Harris?
Many outside of the [Indigenous] Black American Community are befuddled by Our COLLECTIVE rejection of Kamala Harris. Afterall, she's a 'Black' Woman that (supposedly) shares Our Experience. Why don't We give Donald Trump the same heat? Are We 'Closet Trumpers'? What about Project 2025- Aren't We concerned?! In a Word, NO. New Black Media is on a Crusade against Kamala Harris for several reasons:
She's a Democratic Candidate & the DNC hasn't done ANYTHING for Us since 1968.
She's a Prosecutor who went after Blackfolk for 'Quality of Life' Offenses, but Campaigns that she targeted 'Predators' & Drug Cartels.
She ILLEGALLY kept Black Inmates past their Release Dates, 2 profit from Prison Leasing.
She publicly stated that she wouldn't do ANYTHING just for Blackfolk Only, but has been Very Specific in getting BILLIONS for the AAPI Community.
She is Directly Responsible for the Illegal Immigrant problem currently affecting Blackfolk more than any other Demographic.
We DEMAND Tangibles, but she continues to insult Us by rolling out Bootlick Celebrities pushing Identity Politics over Policy.
I KNOW that as Black Americans, we're supposed to be functional illiterates that can't think & chew gum at the same time; but Folks should take a Closer Look at American History. Most of America's inventions & innovations came from the Minds of Black Men & Women. MANY couldn't afford Patents & either sold their inventions, like Granville Woods, or were swindled out of them. To be clear, We're FAR from Stupid.
Donald Trump is NOT a threat to Black Americans. In spite of his outlandish Comments & Talking Points, he's No Worse than 'Jim Crow Joe'- who PROMISED to have Black America's 'Back', but reneged on EVERY PROMISE made to Us. Joe Biden behaves like his Dixiecrat Mentors. He is clearly about marginalizing Black America, & Kamala said her Platform doesn't differ much from Biden's.
Immigration is more important than Abortion.
Reparations is more important than decriminalizing Marijuana federally.
Prison Reform is more important than the threat of Project 2025.
Kamala's 'Plan for Black Men' was an INSULT! The DNC assumed Blackfolk don't read past the Title Page, & wouldn't see the language that says this Plan is for EVERYONE. We have been dealing w/ Democratic Doublespeak for over 50Yrs now; watching Our Neighborhoods being neglected, while Resources meant for Us were diverted to build up Newcomers.
Donald Trump doesn't represent a Political Party that We supported LOYALLY for the last 64Yrs. We don't expect anymore from Trump than We expected from Reagan or Bush (41 & 43). The Fact of the Matter is, a Harris- Walz Administration likely means a continuation of Neo Liberal Policy that PURPOSELY marginalizes Black Americans, while propping up Immigrants w/ resources originally meant for Us.
Donald Trump, is a Megalomaniac that has No Regard for ANYONE. Fred Trump may have been a Klansman, but Donald is an Equal Opportunity Manipulator. Judging from his 1st Term in Office, Donald Trump isn't particular about WHO he grifts. If Black America is screwed regardless, We'll see to it that EVERYONE feels the Bite.
