Bro Ice Cube Speaking On DNC Convention asks "What's In It For Us?"

[Tony D'Amato]

Donald trump does not need the black vote. Donald trump does not expect the black vote

Common sense should tell you that you bring your demands to the people who are asking for something from you

Well good luck with that. Cuz Donald Trump and his ppl are trying to take away the blk vote anyway, then giving lifetime appointments to ppl to enact the same racist laws yall complain about. So how exactly is it advantageous to just sit back and continue to let republicans fukk up the country?

I know Cube will be fine regardless tho

 

[Neo. The Only. The One.]

Changing your mind, who said I was doing that lol and I do not care who wins the election, I do not belong to any political party

I do not vote for presidential elections, the only time I voted for a presidential election was Obamas 2nd term and I'm not voting in November. If Biden wins If Trump wins

The only thing I know is that, it does not matter who is the President, Black people will still be at the bottom.

"Yes, it doesn't matter who's president. The person that's supposed to create and manage a federal response to emergencies (such as pandemics) isn't important at all.

In fact, folks die from pandemics all the time.

177,000 ppl? That's completely normal. It's all good.

Oh, a third of them are black?

who cares? Are you sure all of them were ADOS? "






y'all folks are clowns

 

[El Bombi]

If a plan benefits Every race then it's not "for blacks", it's for everyone

What programs do they have for ados and ados alone level the playing field from this 400 year head start

It has to be something that only way have access to, otherwise it's not "for blacks"

This is a very simple concept

This.

It does nothing to close the wealth gap of ADOS/FBA.

Here it is again: LIFT EVERY VOICE: THE BIDEN PLAN FOR BLACK AMERICA – Joe Biden for President: Official Campaign Website


and here's just SOME of it:

The Biden Plan for Black America will:

• Advance the economic mobility of African Americans and close the racial wealth and income gaps.
• Expand access to high-quality education and tackle racial inequity in our education system.
• Make far-reaching investments in ending health disparities by race.
• Strengthen America’s commitment to justice.
• Make the right to vote and the right to equal protection real for African Americans.
• Address environmental justice.

Invest in African American Businesses and Entrepreneurs

Approximately 4% of small business owners are African American, even though African Americans make up approximately 13% of the population. To build wealth in African American communities, we must invest in the success of African American businesses and entrepreneurs.

Ensuring equal access to credit and capital. African American businesses often lack the capital they need to succeed. African American businesses are rejected at a rate nearly 20% higher than the white-owned firms. Even worse, African American businesses that do get funding receive only 40% of the funds requested as compared to 70% for white businesses.


Increase opportunities for African American-owned businesses to obtain or participate in federal contracts.


Increase funding for the Minority Business Development Agency budget.



Protect small and disadvantaged businesses from federal and state contract bundling which often locks out African American-owned smaller firms from effectively bidding on procurement contracts.



Expand African American Homeownership and Access to Affordable, Safe Housing


Help families buy their first homes and build wealth by creating a new refundable, advanceable tax credit of up to $15,000.



Tackle racial bias that leads to homes in communities of color being assessed by appraisers below their fair value.

 

[I Really Mean It]

Man do your googles on the issue. You just saying anti-democrat shyt. You know anything democrats do won't be enough for you if it isn't reparations. fukk the black community and kids who benefit from Democratic policies. Same nikkas will say "well we know Republicans won't give us reparations or nothing at all". Well guess what, Democrats can't do the shyt alone. Congress doesn't work by one party passing the laws they want despite the other party. You know this though, you're just a black elitist who don't give a fukk about the plight of our community. It's what can they do for ME! fukk the black community.

You sound desperate, breh. Desperation breeds sloppiness. Seems like you’re so desperate to “help” black people, you’ll sell us down the river.

 

[Neo. The Only. The One.]

This.

It does nothing to close the wealth gap of ADOS/FBA.

How does it do nothing to close the gap when Biden literally addresses this in the plan?

ADVANCE THE ECONOMIC MOBILITY OF AFRICAN AMERICANS AND CLOSE THE RACIAL WEALTH AND INCOME GAPS

It ain't a person on here that can tell me life for black folk would be better if Trump gets another 4 years. I can point to at least 10 ways life for black folk will be better if Biden wins....case closed.

breh, all we have to do is quote Biden's black plan.

See, the problem with stupid idiots like @Houston911 is that he spends most of his time getting info from other idiots like Yvette Carnell and Tariq.

So they've been going on and on for months "where's Biden's black plan"

and Biden released a black plan back in April

And this is Houston and the rest of these fool's first time hearing about it, so now they have a dilemma... Do they turn against their daddy Tariq and lesbian mama Yvette and accept facts?

Or do they just keep going with the ADOS FBA false talking points?

and well, we see the choice they're deciding to make.

 

[CHICAGO]

where's the proof, cause I'm on his site right now reading the plan and so far, I dont see anything that says this benefits all races

ABSOLUTELY NONE OF THIS shyt
IS EXCLUSIVELY FOR BLACKS
YOU fukkING IDIOT.
ITS ALL "SMALL BUSINESS"
AND "MINORITY" TALK
(A WHITE WOMAN IS A MINORITY
A GAY WHITE MAN IS A MINORITY
ANYONE WHO ISNT A STRAIGHT WHITE MALE IS A MINORITY)

ITS A SHAME YOU nikkaS
REALLY ARE AS STUPID AS THE DEMS
THINK YOU ARE.

ALL THEY DO IS PUT
AFRICAN AMERICAN/BLACK
IN THE BULLET POINT TITLE
AND NONE OF YOU CLOWNS EVEN READ
THE FINE PRINT.

Ensuring equal access to credit and capital. African American businesses often lack the capital they need to succeed. African American businesses are rejected at a rate nearly 20% higher than the white-owned firms. Even worse, African American businesses that do get funding receive only 40% of the funds requested as compared to 70% for white businesses. To increase investment and access to capital, Biden will:

​

• 
  
  
  • Double funding for the State Small Business Credit Initiative. The Obama-Biden Administration created the State Small Business Credit Initiative (SSBCI) to support small businesses, driving $10 billion in new lending for each $1 billion in SSBCI funds. Biden will extend the program through 2025 and double its federal funding to $3 billion, driving close to $30 billion of private sector investments to small businesses all told, especially those owned by women and people of color.
  • Expand the New Markets Tax Credit, make the program permanent, and double Community Development Financial Institutions (CDFI) funding. The New Markets Tax Credit has helped draw tens of billions of dollars in new capital to low-income communities, providing tax credits to investors in community development organizations that support everything from supermarkets to real estate projects to manufacturing plants. As part of his plan to reinvest in communities across the country, including in rural areas, Biden will also double funding for the Community Development Financial Institutions (CDFI) Fund, which supports local, mission-driven financial institutions in low-income areas around the U.S. This builds on Biden’s proposal to support entrepreneurs in small towns and rural areas by expanding both the Rural Microentrepreneur Assistance Program and the number of Rural Business Investment Companies, to help rural businesses attract capital.
  • Improve and expand the Small Business Administration programs that most effectively support African American-owned businesses. The Small Business Administration’s (SBA) programs have been and remain one of the most effective ways of accessing capital for African American-owned businesses. Biden will strengthen these existing programs by:
    • Ensuring the SBA has the funding it needs to support African American-owned business and others in the current crisis and beyond. Trump has once again proposed a massive cut of 25% in the SBA budget for FY2021, including a 35% cut in funding to Small Business Development Centers, a 20% cut to the SBA Microloan Program, and significantly increased fees for the 7(a) loan program, which is SBA’s main loan program for small businesses.
    • Making permanent the successful Community Advantage loan program, originally created during the Obama-Biden Administration. The program, which provides capital for startups and growing small businesses located in particularly underserved communities through CDFIs and other mission-driven lenders, has been run as a pilot program since 2011. Biden will make this program permanent and reverse rules enacted by the Trump Administration that are making it more difficult for lenders to participate in the program and lend to African American-owned businesses and other businesses located in underserved communities.

Increase opportunities for African American-owned businesses to obtain or participate in federal contracts. In the aftermath of the 2008-2009 financial crisis, well over $100 billion of federal prime contracting dollars were awarded to minority-owned small businesses. And, between 2013 and 2016, the Obama-Biden Administration increased federal prime contract dollars going to Small Disadvantaged Businesses by nearly 30%, from $30.6 billion to $39.1 billion. The Obama-Biden Administration also created an Interagency Task Force on Federal Contracting Opportunities for Small Businesses, which included a focus on contracting opportunities for minority-owned businesses. The Obama-Biden Administration implemented its vision of more equitable access to federal contracts through a variety of channels, including by launching the Federal Procurement Center (FPC) as part of the Commerce Department’s Minority Business Development Agency (MBDA). The FPC, a first-of-its-kind program, helps minority-owned firms apply for and win federal government contracts. As President, Biden will build on these efforts to support the expansion of opportunities for minority-owned small businesses.

Increase funding for the Minority Business Development Agency budget. MBDA plays a critical role in supporting the development and growth of minority-owned businesses around the country, as well as providing needed assistance to federal and state agencies so that they award minority-owned businesses procurement contracts. The Trump Administration has pushed for a 75% cut in MBDA’s budget. Biden would protect and call for increased funding for it.

Protect small and disadvantaged businesses from federal and state contract bundling which often locks out African American-owned smaller firms from effectively bidding on procurement contracts. Biden will build on the anti-bundling provisions of the Small Business Jobs Act of 2010, by having the Office of Management and Budget, SBA, and MBDA conduct a government-wide review of existing contract bundling to determine whether agencies are following existing rules and whether agencies have the ability to further ensure small business participation in federal and state procurement opportunities.

Make sure economic relief because of COVID-19 reaches the African American businesses that need it most. The first installment of the Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) largely left out minority-owned businesses. The Center for Responsible Lending estimates that more than 90% of small businesses owned by people of color will not receive loans. The program is not taking into account the specific challenges that African American businesses face in accessing funding and complying with the program’s requirements. The financial institutions best positioned to help African American small businesses don’t have the systems to quickly deploy the funding in a first-come first-served approach. The second phase set aside $60 billion for community banks and CDFIs, as well as mid-sized banks, which can better serve smaller businesses and minority-owned firms. This is a good start, but more needs to be done:

​

• 
  
  
  • Provide AfricanAmerican entrepreneurs and other small business owners technical assistance to help them apply for funding, as well as legal and accounting support to ensure their documentation (such as their financial records, tax filings, and other legal documents) is all in correct order. The Trump Administration and Congress should provide an additional infusion of operating capital to these CDFIs and community-focused lenders to ensure all African American entrepreneurs have access to the technical assistance and support they need.
  • Reserve half of all the new PPP funds for small businesses with 50 employees or less, so the bigger and more well-connected aren’t able to win in a first-come, first-served race. While this will help the vast majority of small businesses, it should also help target more funding to minority-owned businesses, given 98% of all minority-and women-owned businesses have fewer than 50 employees.
  • Produce a weekly dashboard to show which small businesses are accessing loans. Such a dashboard would help drive better data collection on the beneficiaries of small business support related to the COVID-19 epidemic, including in particular collecting data by gender and race, in order to ensure that the program isn’t leaving out communities, minority- and women-owned businesses, or the smallest businesses.

I will say this, I better not hear about a deficit if Biden gets in. Cuz Trump is spending like a madman. And is probably going to get another Trillion dollar stimulus.

 

[Neo. The Only. The One.]

Kamala Harris is classified as an "African American" in bidens plan

where in that plan does it say "And yes, under this plan, Kamala Harris is an african american"



Dude, you ain't up to this debate. I'm starting to think you in your 20s cause can't no 30 plus yr old be this stupid

 

[Houston911]

It ain't a person on here that can tell me life for black folk would be better if Trump gets another 4 years. I can point to at least 10 ways life for black folk will be better if Biden wins....case closed.

Short term youre absolutely right...but blacks will be at the bottom regardless

But would life be SIGNIFICANTLY better for blacks LONG TERM if Democrats realized they had to bring us REAL TANGIBLES in exchange for our vote?

 

[I Really Mean It]

I believe this.. But 2020 has shown that anything is possible.. Latinos are in those swing states heavy.. One day the democratic pandering to latinos will pay off..

why not now?

Many Latinos are illegal and can’t vote, for one. Second, as we saw in 2016, a good number of them support Trump. And, I don’t know that Latinos are heavy in Michigan and Wisconsin, though you’re correct that they have a sizable presence in states like Texas and Arizona.
