Another night of staying up at 5 am thinking about the way I will bring Universal Guaranteed Income (#UBI) to the people of this nation, but more specifically my city of #Atlanta. (A thread)

It’s time that we all engage within a social contract with one another as well as with our government. This contract states that we all can agree that not one person that lives within this nation should be regulated to less than humane living conditions of any kind.

This means that at the very least, the safety nets in place are supposed to be adept in providing an income which would be right above what would be considered poverty for one person. This figure is around $12,700 annually, so about $13,000/year•$1,100 monthly.

I’m writing this because I become bothered when racial issues are discussed by politicians. The narrative that’s always discussed is how will we end racism, racial inequities, discrimination, and racial inequalities, but the truth is never discussed...

That truth is: racism or better yet, the discrimination and disenfranchisement of Blacks is embedded within the framework of America and American society. The very thread that holds together the fabrics of American jurisprudence is racism itself.

It’s ironic that long ago, my ancestors died for the right to vote. Even today, that struggle continues, but year after year, election after election, no true change occurs for Blacks. It’s why a lot of Black men and women of my generation become disillusioned about politics.
