I think Tariq and so called smart black leaders are misleading a lot of you. The idea that because this primarily effects Hispanics means we shouldn't care is bullshyt. Because that's short sighted thinking. The longer term thinking and bigger picture is this white supremacist administration and how it continues to show they don't give a fukk about anybody that isn't white.
Trump's Department of Justice has been looking for "evidence" of crimes in order to remove Haitians from that Obama program that shielded them from deportation in an effort to deport them. They are basically hunting them.
Trump's Department of Justice has literally reversed direction all of the Criminal Justice reform that has been made in the previous years. The current racist AG wants to charge people with the harshest, longest possible sentences for shyt that doesn't warrant it. This current Department of Justice will not be suing police departments who violate civil rights and not be forcing them into court ordered reform like the previous administration. Instead they said they will be letting it slide which is why most police forces were Pro-Trump before the election. Because letting it slide also means letting racial profiling slide. Also, Trump himself went on national TV and essentially encouraged police brutality which will further embolden the police to carry it out. Remember, the FBI released that report on white supremacists entering the police force.
All of that has a direct effect on black people proportionally.
I'm not saying you should go and march with these Hispanics at protests. I'm not saying you should be sympathetic toward them. I'm saying you should study this administration to get more familiar with how they move. Study their decisions and the behavior of each top official to get politically knowledgeable and educated because people like them might rise through the ranks in ya'll local towns, cities and states and try the same white power approach through the court system, criminal justice system, the legislative branch (like city council or state congress) or the mayor/county executive or governor role. Remember, Trump embolden a lot of white supremacists but he also emboldened a lot of hard right Conservatives who are basically bigot trash. Some of you might live in more liberal cities so you don't have to worry so much, but it's still good to be armed with wisdom.

Nothing white supremacist about wanting to ensure me and my family's economic opportunity in the country that we helped build.
"Trump's Department of Justice has been looking for "evidence" of crimes in order to remove Haitians from that Obama program that shielded them from deportation in an effort to deport them. They are basically hunting them."
Yes, that's the point. They're here illegally. I want them gone. Trump happens to as well. That's why I voted for him: deport illegals, reduce legal immigration as much as humanly possible, and rework trade agreements to be more favorable to American workers. Haitian, Dominican, Nigerian, Chinese, Korean, Mexican, whatever. I don't care what color they are or what God they worship - if they're here illegally, I want them gone, ASAP.
Get this CAC out of here. Clearly not black. That was created to PROTECT BLACK people
black people maybe we should sit this one out
Yet this character @panopticon is named after a type of jailing methodology...
So you are insulting my baby cousin, who was born here because my auntie wants to make sure that it would be easier to immigrate here in a few years. Taking away birthright citizenship so my little brother and sister will have to go through the same hoops like me just to get a fukking drivers license. fukk you, you are despicable.No, I'm black. I've posted extensively on immigration before. It isn't in me or my family's interests, so I'm against it.
Birthright citizenship is a major incentive for folks to attempt to immigrate to this country illegally and/or engage in birth tourism ("anchor babies"). I want to reduce the flow as much as possible, and get deportations > inflows ASAP.
I support a new law stipulating that if one of your parents is an American citizen or legal permanent resident, then you're American as well. But no longer does a wealthy Chinese woman get to hop on a plane 8 months pregnant, plop out a baby on US soil and grab him a birth certificate in the state of CA (thereby guaranteeing the child in-state tuition at CA universities), and then jet back home with a ready-made conduit for wealth acquired via corruption to be secured (bank accounts opened in the name of the now "American" child, real estate purchased in his name, etc.) Nope, not playing that game anymore.
400 years we know everything we need to know and if you don't know you're shyt out of luck. Not the first time something like this has happened.I think Tariq and so called smart black leaders are misleading a lot of you.

What makes me, you, and any other non-American different that we just want a good life for our families.
Yeah, that's the whole point. I don't want it to be easier for your auntie (or anyone else's auntie, or anyone at all) to immigrate.
You're literally making my case for me.
No, I'm black. I've posted extensively on immigration before. It isn't in me or my family's interests, so I'm against it.
