Donald Trump is not welcome in Philly!! Donald Trump no es bienvenido en Filadelfia!! En Español abajo... Donald Trump is a bigot that has no place in the Black or Latino community, especially our sacred religious spaces. His candidacy is an egregious farce that panders to racists, homophobes, Islamaphobes and anti-immigrants. Niether Donald Trump nor Hilliary Clinton represent the aspirations of poor/ working class people, they are mainly focused on collecting Black and Latino votes to increase their political influence. We must take every opportunity to publicily denounce Trump, his racism and those who believe in his oppressive political ideals. Just yesterday Trump spoke for over on hour on national television and criminalized Latinos and immigrant in an attempt to use fear of the "other" to win votes; Fear mongering is the basis for facism, not policy. We must also address the Black mis-leadership class who hosts these demogogue. They are hurting our communities and consistently thwarting our efforts towards liberation. They preach "the lesser of two evils" ideology while dismissing any analysis that calls for a rejection of the two party system. We will not allow Trump to enter our city without voicing our dissent. Let's show up and make our voices heard. The Hate Stops Here! _____ Donald Trump es un intolerante que no tiene lugar en la comunidad Negro o Latino, especialmente en nuestros espacios sagrados. Su candidatura es una farsa monumental que complace a los racistas, homófobos, Islamafobos y los anti-inmigrantes. Donald Trump ni Hilliary Clinton representan las aspiraciones de los pobres, de nuestra comunidad, solo se centran principalmente en la recogida de votos Latinos y Negro para aumentar su influencia política. Debemos de aprovechar de todas las oportunidades para denunciar publicamente a Trump, su racismo y a los que creen en sus ideales políticos opresivos. Ayer mismo Trump habló durante más de hora en la televisión nacional y criminalizo a los Latinos y los inmigrantes en un intento de utilizar el miedo al "otro" para ganar votos; esa creacion de miedo es la base para el facismo, no la política. También debemos abordar la clase de mal liderazgo que alberga estos demogogue. Ellos están haciendo daño a nuestras comunidades y frustrando constantemente nuestros esfuerzos en la liberación. Ellos predican la ideologia de "el menor de dos malos" y ignoran a cualquier análisis que requiere un rechazo del sistema de dos partidos. No vamos a permitir a Trump que entre en nuestra ciudad sin expresar nuestra discrepancia. Vamos a hacerle oír nuestra voz. El Odio Para Aqui!
