Angela rye claims obama gave tangibles to black people

[Jaylen Tatum]

Why do they always insult the average black voter and make it personal?

Look at Bidens campaign worker... Kamala is running for President. Is Unc not allowed to have an opiinion?

Wow this is crazy disrespectful. She wants bm vote but not our opinion. Basically shut up and vote

Also for others posting lawsuits and settlements, that's not something Obama "gives". The government has been sued. That's like saying that guy who fell in the nyc sidewalk full of rats is going to be "given" a check. No he's going to hire a lawyer to go demand a bag for him.

Not sure what semantics games you're trying to play here, but the Pickford Settlement was closed in 1999 with $1 billion from the Clinton Administration. In 2008 Senator Obama (before he became president) was the lead sponsor of the measure to re-open the Pickford Settlement and add additional funding. With his help Congress finally passed the measure in 2010 and he signed it as president. Otherwise it would never have happened. The Trump Administration has refused to even meet with John Boyd Jr.

Obama really did get that check cut when legally the obligation was done.

In the legal world the case was closed. It was Obama's work, first as senator and then as president, that re-opened the case and added an additional $1.25 billion to the original settlement. Of course, others like John Boyd Jr. did MUCH more work, but so far as politicians go Obama was the #1 man responsible for making it happen.

did black people not benefit from healthcare, record unemployment, HBCU funding, lowest federal incarceration etc ?

Or did you bozos just want handouts?

that's good info and leads into my second lesson of the day in the thread. it's short and simple (quite remedial actually)
the congress holds the power of the purse strings.
all this "trump funded hbcu" blah blah is not accurate. he signed off on a bill that he would not be able to veto otherwise lol

as far as the indian settlement. that was basically a contract dispute. indians own lands under treaty that the government "holds" in trust. they lease it out, for timber, oil, etc. part of the lease money is supposed to be paid out back to the indians. they didn't pay it all out to the indians so the indians sued. the end
it wasnt "given" as a "reparation"

Obama gave tangibles to Black people it was called the Blue Alert Law, which helps out police:

Obama signs 'Blue Alert' law to protect police

President Obama signs the Rafael Ramos and Wenjian Liu National Blue Alert Act of 2015 in the Oval Office of the White House Tuesday. The act, named after two police officers who were killed in New York, will assist the National Blue Alert system to apprehend violent criminals who have injured or killed police officers or who have made an imminent or credible threat to cause serious injury or death of a law enforcement officer.

Obama help give tangibles to Black people, when he gave $492 Million to the Native Americans

U.S. to pay 17 Indian tribes $492 million to settle long-standing disputes

The Obama administration has settled lawsuits with 17 Native American tribes that accused the federal government of long mismanaging their funds and natural resources.

With these settlements, the administration will have resolved the majority of outstanding claims, some dating back a century, with more than 100 tribes and totaling more than $3.3 billion, according to the Justice and Interior departments.

Obama help give tangibles to Black people, when he sung Amazing Grace at the funeral of the Black people who were killed by the White Supremacist Dylann Roof:




I hate when you ungrateful nikkas talk about Obama and how he did not do anything for Black people.

I did have insurance through the Affordable Care act at one time. I forgot exactly what I was paying at the time something like $90 dollars every payment, but they wanted to jack that up to over $200 dollars and I had to drop them. I don't get where folks are saying it helps everybody, because it doesn't if we're going to be real about it. They forced everybody to get insurance and then the price went up.

She can take that nonsense back to Grenada. Her own cast mates on Insecure don’t fukk with her.

Guess you think all Black women look alike eh?

"And she opposed federal supervision of California’s prisons after a U.S. Supreme Court ruling declared the overcrowded facilities inflicted cruel and unusual punishment on inmates".

Is this fcking true?

there's a whole macro level economic explanation for the burden that disease and bad health places on whole societies. its a whole bigger picture which is what federal governments are supposed to consider.

unfortunately, you may be out some hundred dollars but the theory is your better off.

That was started under Bush, Obama just signed off on it kind of like Trump signing off on the HBCU funding. Also that $12million was actually $92 dollars and some hearing aids since there was 100k survivors still living.

 

[Secure Da Bag]

What about the 99.9% of us that are not farmers

That doesn't answer his question. Which is simply, "yes that's a tangible".

Now to your point, "where's the rest"?

Most presidents do HBCU funding, and trump lead the way on reform....but that's far from being enough.

Being on your parents insurance until 25 was allowed when bush was president, Obama didn't enact that

At that time, you had to be going to school to be on your parents' insurance. Otherwise, you were on your own.
