This PFIR guilt-by-association slander is something that cannot stand.
Whatever you, Mr. Greene, or any other observer thinks about PFIR...someone please provide evidence of any position paper, article, blog entry, etc. that espouses harm to immigrants to this country.

PFIR has been flagged as connected to nativists by the same organization that called the Nation of Islam and The New Black Panther Party hate groups, who happens to be allies with N'COBRA in their #reparations push.
So how much weight should we give about what they say?

Next...Yvette Carnell isn't a right-winger...but let's do a thought experiment and say that she was.
The reality remains that while #ADOS is 13-14% of the American population, they only hold 2.6% of America's total wealth.
The reality remains that while #ADOS is 13-14% of the American population, they only hold 2.6% of America's total wealth.
On top of THAT, with that 2.6% total, 75.4% of that is held by the top 10% of Black households, and the next 10% hold 15.4% of the total.
That means the top 20% of Black American households (about 4 million households) HOLD 90.8% of the meager wealth we have.
That means the top 20% of Black American households (about 4 million households) HOLD 90.8% of the meager wealth we have.
So EVEN IF it was true that Yvette was some right-wing operative (and SHE IS NOT), the fact that the bottom 80 percent of #ADOS have nearly NO WEALTH, and the bottom 50% of Black households have NO WEALTH, THEY HAVE DEBT.
The data exposing the racial wealth gap demands the redress of #reparations, full stop.
So then, calling a group of working poor Black folk who do not define themselves or identify with, "MAGA," doesn't make any sense.

And worse, slandering a people who have been betrayed by the end of Reconstruction, victims of terrorist violence, stolen land and wealth, convict leasing, Jim Crow, redlining and mass incarceration by calling us "trash"...it's setting our people up for harm. Unacceptable.
