Tariq is going hard pushing this #DontVote campaign

[Rice'N Beckford]

You think that Trump is going to push the button on North Korea and Russia at the same dam time. But Tariq out here telling nikkas to not vote. The democrats been good to us they gave us our first black presidents Barack Swag Obama...Brought a tear to my eye to hear him sing Amazing Grace. I can't wait until Obama gets rid of my student loans. Plus, dems got us health care.

Sad sad sad post smh

He profits from black disenfranchisement, see, like how your dumb ass sits and wonders how democratically elected officials never have black interests at heart. How you click on video after video and buy bullshyt pairs of boots for the struggle, see. How telling your idiotic smart dumb hippity hop followers not to vote instead of having all of them actively participating in the process to have their issues and concerns addressed by chosen candidates, so they can be properly vetted by your voting base before a whiff of an a$$hole of a caucus, Democratic or Republican, see.

He'd rather have another generation of frustrated dumb ass nikkas to buy his Kool Aid than actually empower your ass with instruction in the political process so you can sit out an entire motherfukking election then quip some "b b b but white supremacy!" when shytty candidates get elected cause your dumb ass was streaming codeine anthems from illiterate closeted homosexuals instead of voting, see.

nikkas was lynched, burned alive, and got cracked upside the head with anything a cracker could get his hands on for the right to participate in a process this c00n shythead has used all his Super Saiyan smart dumb pimp powers to tell you NOT to utilize. Your father figure is a conman and probably a fukking agent, see.

You idiotic mouthbreathing dumb smart dumb fake ass hotep b*stard sonofabytch.

Funny but true.

I hope black people who sit out, can build group economics in a FEMA cam...or after a nuclear war.

Running away from America when a man like Trump threatens to blow up the world is just . How we gonna shine and gain power when WW3 breaks out?


But no one in this thread ever thought about Trump sending people to a massive war, which has a high probability of happening if he's in offoce. It's more than what he will/ won't do for blacks, it's about humanity's survival.

But they don't hear you though.

For real For real...

If I do vote in the Presidential elections it will be to see the tears of these rednecks that love republican and trump.

 

[MostReal]

And the Democrats won't

There's a shyt ton of plantations in the North. They found a grave of slaves in NYC. Slaves were the ones who built Wall Street.

Central Park was a town for black people

 

[MostReal]

Your vote NEVER mattered. All about the bloodlines.

If this is true, I have a strange suspicion that Trump about to test that theory.

We'll see a Trayvon Martin type of political assassination in order for Trump not to win the Republican nomination

Imagine Trump dropping bombs in other countries? or putting all black people in Africa as "savages"?

Not voting is silly

The same people who tell you to "get up off your ass and do something to change your situation" are telling you not to vote?

Telling you not to be involved with a local election
a state election
a NATIONAL election?



We should be as involved as possible. We should be flooding the boxes. We should be flooding the twitters of these candidates with questions. We should be calling in and demanding answers. We should NEVER sit back and say "well...neither candidate is going to help me so why vote?"

We spend money on Jordan's, movies, clothes, music, etc. We need to spend money on lobbyists. We need to support local governments or join them. Go to a school board meeting or a town hall meeting. Be as involved as possible. Instead of sitting around listening to podcasts of these clowns telling us what NOT to do.

We live in this country...we have a right to be heard and demand to be heard. Even if the candidates aren't the best. We need to put our money behind candidates we want to support. We need to empower each other to get involved so we can can inspire change. If you live in Chicago, voting may not change the immediate gang violence; but demanding of your school board, demanding of your town hall, demanding of your police chief may change things in a few years.

[thaKEAF]

Do you know how the electoral college works?

Can you explain. I've seen too many people passing memes on how the electoral college is who really picks the president which I'm sure is something they got from Umar lol

 

[No Sleep]

Did WEB Dubois and Malcolm X think like elementary children?

Were those guys smart dumb nikkas?

 

[Bawon Samedi]

Did WEB Dubois and Malcolm X think like elementary children?

@Poitier and @Nomad1 did this guy really have the nerve to compare Tariq to X and Dubois?????


Please tell me this guy is joking.

 

[No Sleep]

To let the Democratic party know that they will lose every election unless they address the needs of black America. We were the push behind Obama and Clinton getting into office. Without us they would not have won. This what Malcolm was talking about in the 60's



So again, what are you getting in exchange for your vote?

WEB Du Bois on voting:

W.E.B. Dubois, I Won't Vote

Since I was twenty-one in 1889, I have in theory followed the voting plan strongly advocated by Sidney Lens in The Nation of August 4, i.e., voting for a third party even when its chances were hopeless, if the main parties were unsatisfactory; or, in absence of a third choice, voting for the lesser of two evils. My action, however, had to be limited by the candidates' attitude toward Negroes. Of my adult life, I have spent twenty-three years living and teaching in the South, where my voting choice was not asked. I was disfranchised by law or administration. In the North I lived in all thirty-two years, covering eight Presidential elections. In 1912 I wanted to support Theodore Roosevelt, but his Bull Moose convention dodged the Negro problem and I tried to help elect Wilson as a liberal Southerner. Under Wilson came the worst attempt at Jim Crow legislation and discrimination in civil service that we had experienced since the Civil War. In 1916 I took Hughes as the lesser of two evils. He promised Negroes nothing and kept his word. In 1920, I supported Harding because of his promise to liberate Haiti. In 1924, I voted for La Follette, although I knew he could not be elected. In 1928, Negroes faced absolute dilemma. Neither Hoover nor Smith wanted the Negro vote and both publicly insulted us. I voted for Norman Thomas and the Socialists, although the Socialists had attempted to Jim Crow Negro members in the South. In 1932 I voted for Franklin Roosevelt, since Hoover was unthinkable and Roosevelt's attitude toward workers most realistic. I was again in the South from 1934 until 1944. Technically I could vote, but the election in which I could vote was a farce. The real election was the White Primary.

Retired "for age" in 1944, I returned to the North and found a party to my liking. In 1948, I voted the Progressive ticket for Henry Wallace and in 1952 for Vincent Hallinan.

In 1956, I shall not go to the polls. I have not registered. I believe that democracy has so far disappeared in the United States that no "two evils" exist. There is but one evil party with two names, and it will be elected despite all I can do or say. There is no third party. On the Presidential ballot in a few states (seventeen in 1952), a "Socialist" Party will appear. Few will hear its appeal because it will have almost no opportunity to take part in the campaign and explain its platform.

Negroes hope to muster 400,000 votes in 1956. Where will they cast them? What have the Republicans done to enforce the education decision of the Supreme Court? What they advertised as fair employment was exactly nothing, and Nixon was just the man to explain it. What has the Administration done to rescue Negro workers, the most impoverished group in the nation, half of whom receive less than half the median wage of the nation, while the nation sends billions abroad to protect oil investments and help employ slave labor in the Union of South Africa and the Rhodesias? Very well, and will the party of Talmadge, Eastland and Ellender do better than the Republicans if the Negroes return them to office?

I have no advice for others in this election. Are you voting Democratic? Well and good; all I ask is why? Are you voting for Eisenhower and his smooth team of bright ghost writers? Again, why? Will your helpless vote either way support or restore democracy to America?

Is the refusal to vote in this phony election a counsel of despair? No, it is dogged hope. It is hope that if twenty-five million voters refrain from voting in 1956 because of their own accord and not because of a sly wink from Khrushchev, this might make the American people ask how much longer this dumb farce can proceed without even a whimper of protest.

he really ethered the dissenting opinions extensively if we're being real but it'll get swept to the side for the hate train to keep rolling.

I don't rock with Tariq on some of his relationship advice but when he talks black political and economic empowerment he's in line with great people like Neely Fuller and Claude Anderson.
