Bernie Sanders: America Has “Got To Apologize For Slavery”

[yardman]

bruh my parents are nigerian so they saw things in a different light but i understand where yall coming with this


hmmm pretty sure mlk was also against segregation

You know his stance changed on intergration before he died right?Read a lil bit more brethren.

First off this isn't the only instance of him doing things to help minorities. He's done plenty to help all races, but here are some examples of what he's done to help blacks.



You can read the rest of the article and stuff he's done at this link 20 Examples of Bernie Sanders' Powerful Record on Civil and Human Rights Since the 1950s . Is this to say that he is the messiah when it comes to help race relations. Probably not, but he has a long track record of helping all minorities and I believe he understands the real problems that face us. Will he come in and fix everything. Probably not, but of the candidates that are out there he's the only one with this type of track record. I'm all aboard with Bernie. The guy is running a ground roots campaign and is against the things most people on this board complain about. He hasn't accepted money from any super pacs. I might be wrong and all the stuff he's done over the past 50 years might be a political push for to become President in 2016 then he's just going to change all of a sudden. I can only give you what I've learned about him through articles, going to Bernie Sanders rallies, and trying to get myself educated on the candidates. On that note.

VOTE FOR BERNIE!!!

I've read that article and its a fluff peice. Not a single peice of legislation for black people breh. Just him casting a vote or giving lip service.

Bernie has been in congress since 2006 breh. Name a single legislation he's either authored or sponsored specifically for black people.

Y'all said the exact same thing when Obama was in office. They kept mentioning how he was a community organizer in Chicago to prove how he'd have our back. And he gets in and do what every Democratic president have always done, ignored black people and shytted on them in the long run.

Neither is the so called "black".

Once the truth is revealed.. We may owe the European an apology since we enslaved them first... (And each other)


But hey.. Most of you think we all came from Africa and haven't study any of the history before the Punic wars

Bernie out here trying to win some #blacklives votes

You know you oversimplifying the situation. We built em schools, turned em into Mason's and transferred knowledge to em. It ain't the same shyt. Don't downplay it, it ain't analogous.

I guess you didn't read the article then.

And there are groups dedicated solely to the cause of securing reparations for black people. As a matter of fact on Nov. 7 the black is back coalition will march on DC with a specific list of demands.

There was nothing in that article that stated how much each indiv and or household was getting and what the requirements would be. care to link that?

 

[DerrtySouthpaw]

I'll take that as confirmation that you can't

Likewise cause I see you won't answer my question first

 

[yardman]

We wouldn't owe them anything because all of us aren't Moors. The Moors were North Africans. The descendants of slaves in the diaspora came from mostly west and central Africa. That's like Jamaica suing Russia for reparations.

Nah, you had West African Moors.

Breh, you said you're gonna vote for him off GP. Y'all did the same thing when obama got elected

 

[DerrtySouthpaw]

Breh, you said you're gonna vote for him off GP. Y'all did the same thing when obama got elected

So are you gonna tell me not to vote or continue to not show me the lesser evil?
Dont answer my question with a question and demand explanations

 

[Kaypain]

fukk the apology, I want my reparations.

what you want? Some rice crispy treats?

you gonna share with the brothers?

 

[No Sleep]

Apology in the form of a CHECK...

Breh none of these politicians have our best interest in heart, that's my point. Voting for Sanders is like Voting for Clinton. Neither of them will do nothing for black people because neither of them have done anything for black people. They give you lip service (like the US needs to apologize for slavery) but haven't advocated a single piece of legislation in the decade he's been in office.

 

[DEAD7]

Oh let me guess, pandering from the left is to be taken seriously?

 

[Barnett114]

You all can ban me. I spoke nothing but the truth. We started and practiced slavery on each other and them! We also aren't "black"

Please Ban me. I'm far from a c00n but I would rather be banned from the coli for telling the truth than being forced by the spiral of persuasion to interface like an empowered victim waiting for some lip service from an old European about chatel slavery

 

[flo]

The USA gave an official apology for slavery in 2008.

 

[Xerces]

@ this pandering.
