I took a drive today through Loganville, GA and Monroe, GA. All I saw was Trump/Pence signs. It’s really hard for folks to understand that Metro ATL is not the same as the majority of GA.
People underestimate how overt racism is a show of power to a large percentage of White voters. It’s also important to remember that last election, almost all of the poles had Clinton winning. That’s because all of those polls act as if racism isn’t a factor
White America will always choose dominance over equality. Trump is the heartbeat of White America. He represents the “good ole” days. Dems are betting on “liberal” White and white Latino voters to help them win without addressing the insidious nature of Anti-Black racism.
They are wrong. The path to the Oval Office for Biden will require record Black turnout. I am not interested in trading conservative racism for liberal racism. My only concern is a Black Agenda with #Reparations as the heartbeat. @JoeBiden will have to earn my vote.
I encourage each and every Black American to take a stand. Tell #JimCrowJoe that you refuse to continue being ignored. Tell him that your vote is an exchange. Tell @JoeBiden that without #Reparations, it’s #Downballot. #ShowUpVoteDown

Where are these “Brown” bodies represented on your list? I see the names of Black citizens who represent a long history of extrajudicial killings by police and other “deputized” white citizens. STOP using Black Death to advocate for other groups.
The violence against us stands alone. It’s time that the CBC stood on the righteous truth of the ADOS justice claim. You should be fighting to make #ADOS a protected class. You should be fighting to withhold Fed money to counties and municipalities that refuse to provide...
Transparency in the amount of Black shootings and killings by police. The CBC should be demilitarizing the police and calling for nationwide investigations of anti-Black police conduct.

A thread—Black shields, White cover:

(1 of 6)After this election, there are a lot a Black celebrities and Black political pundits who should never be trusted again. If they are not fighting for #ADOS justice, they are part of the plan to continue our oppression.
(2 of 6)If they are endorsing a candidate while not advocating for a #blackagenda that includes #Reparations, then their role is to sell us down the river and/or provide cover for those who want us to remain a bottom caste.
(3 of 6) Think about this: Iowa is only 3.5 percent Black. Nonetheless, we’ve seen several Black surrogates in Iowa giving speeches. Ask yourself why?

A Thread: White folks stay trying to avoid taking credit for Trump’s presidency.

The Dems are having a hard time accepting that there aren’t enough “good White folks” to stop Trump. As a result, they are failing to address Black voters.
The Dems are also in denial about the anti-Black culture that permeates the Latino voting block. This miscalculation makes them blind to the fact that a large percentage of Latinos identify as white.
They’ve also underestimated how many Latinos will convert to an anti-illegal-immigration position in hopes of solidifying their acceptance into White culture.

When I see someone refer to ADOS as trash... a Thread:

In today’s world of social media, the game is about influence—not substance. Companies and political operatives are looking to see who can move the people towards their product or towards their objective...
Politics is an objective based field, with the primary objective being who can make money and how it is made. The second objective is how to divide the money generated.
Many of the so-called “influencers” are merely vying for the fruits that come with proving they can influence Black folks. For example, folks tweet about Trump all day to show the DNC that they can be counted on to carry the water...
