For brehs that see this as a great thing, I ask you: what gives you confidence we’ll move from studies and research to actual implementation?

Again, BIDEN IS STRUGGLING TO ADVANCE HIS OWN AGENDA THAT WOULD BENEFIT MOST AMERICANS. So how is he going to make shyt happen for Black people? Executive order? He won’t even take mass action against student loan debt via executive order.

Via influence in his own party and legislative action? He can’t get two chickenshyt Democratic senators to bush the filibuster and preserve voting rights…when those voting rights are needed to protect the entire party from getting washed. Again, what makes you so confident?

Since the 60s, there’s not been a single black-focused policy that Democrats have gone to the mat for to make sure it gets implemented. We’re supposed to let Biden dangle this carrot in front of us? He’s got us after we vote in 2022 and 2024? Bullshyt - make a credible, black-focused action NOW so we know it’s real. We already turned out in 2020 - it’s time for him and his party to do it’s fukking job.

Also, the fact that we’re acting like a 21 person panel is needed to study these issues for months is bullshyt. These aren’t new, emerging issues. I’m sure any academic who’s seriously studied these issues has a shortlist of things Biden could do via executive order.

Until ACTIONS say otherwise, this is nothing more than a desperate attempt to sure up plummeting black support. It’s damn near insulting. Black people cant continue to save this dumbass party or country from themselves without something in return.

I haven’t read this in full yet, but like with anything being proposed, we’ll see if it worked by looking at the metrics in a couple years. We should see our education metrics go up across the board, just like we should see our home ownership and economic metrics go up.

If that doesn’t happen, then this was a failure and a discussion needs to be had.

Big facts

I have to sit down and really get into the meat of this

Edit: he actually included this language:

“persistent racial and systemic injustices''

That’s fukkin huge for a sitting US President to finally admit that and put it in writing so that it can be used in our justice claims from here on out.
Bro, the last sitting president was retweeting videos with people saying “white power” and sat back as the most rabid in his base tried to make a coup happen. That Biden statement is nothing, even in symbolic terms.

I don’t always agree with him, but no metrics is a red flag. Even if it were highlighting gaps or discrepancies instead of providing targets, that’d be encouraging. They didn’t even include metrics to frame the problem and specific outcomes they’d look to impact.

You're not going to get any of that in one of these imo. The major problem with this for me is that it's an EO and not a bill pushed through congress. Many of these EO's can be rolled back with ease by Republicans once they regain power or through the courts which they've rigged. Even if they did include metrics you and I know that shyt would disappear once Trump gets back in. It's as empty as that dumb stop asian hate bill which the Coli loves to bring up.

With that said I just get annoyed at people like him constantly whining (They never do anything for black people!!!!!!!!) and moving the goalposts. Nothing short of full reparations (which will probably not happen in our lifetimes due to white people) will make him happy. If that's your only goal you're doomed to just constantly bytch and never actually have any solutions to issues. Why even follow politics at that point other than to bytch
