Good, then stop attacking them and stop the BS about parading Trump around as a better option.
Do some research and stop putting a crown on PIMP Tariq and Agent Yvette.
You wasting your time replying bruh
you mean shytting on the party that hasn't done a thing for black folks in 50 years? why yes, yes I am...
the question is why are you always kissing their ass...almost like you WORK for them..or are you c00ning and begging for free?
Illegal immigration and LGBT are their top priorities, they have said this repeatedly, yet you still carry their water like the bytch nikka you are
oh my bad...agent goldberg...i trust the bagels were fresh this morning at the agency?

Did you actually watch the hearing or are you just bytching because Yvette and Tone told you to? Don’t even answer that I already know the answer.
The only celeb that was there was Glover, the footballer you speak of was invited by republicans. There were like 5-6 other people invited on behalf of the democrats to make the case for reparations, who spoke way more than Glover that were absolutely qualified to speak and did a good job. Glover himself didn’t do so bad of a job.
I get you have a hard on for Tone and Yvette as they are probably the only ones YOU’VE been exposed to speak on reparations, but they don’t speak for all black folk and there are plenty of others who can and have been speaking on this issue without any of the divisiveness or ignorance that is spread by them 2.
The overwhelming response to the hearing is that it exceeded people’s expectations. The only people bytching are Yvette and Tone cause they are clout chasing and their egos are hurt that in the movements bigest moment they were not included. fukk that self serving nonsense.

I agree. To be honest to TheColi, I am very ambivalent, bordering on negative regarding reparations. Not because I don't think we aren't owed or weren't devastated by the past but I really don't trust the US Gov't to give us a firm foundation for economic survival or excellence. That has never been the plan and some congressional bill won't change it. If reparations ever gets through I sadly view it as a set up. There will be some catch, some poison pill, to screw it all up and it will be used as an excuse for the US to wash its hands of us even though the program was a planned failure. Or it will go primarily to "others"--remember how affirmative action all became about White Women but we got the grief? Then they will use it as a dog whistle to Whites and "other people of Color" to go even harder on us, as if they aren't now.
The problem is though, most of the anti-reparations people and their arguments are so
either not relevant or completely insulting. Reparations advocates have shown in numbers how slavery and segregation affected us wealth and disparity wise. Juelzing around that as if the evidence doesn't exist is BS. If you don't agree, present an alternative but don't preach some fairy tale. In that vein I support Coates and Malveaux 10X more than anything Owens or Hughes is spitting.

I don't support Tariq -- never have, never will. And "Agent Yvette" -- whether you like her or not -- or agree with her views -- is not -- nor has ever told anyone Trump is a better option.
Where did you get that from?
And yeah, I don't need to do research
I don't put a crown on anyone -- and nor does 99% of ADOS.Thanks
Nobody said trumps a better option, you fukking clown

I'm sorry -- I disagree with them.
They are concentrating on non-factors. No one took those witnesses (republican ) seriously.
why are you here?

I don't need no reparations. I worked hard and made it into the NFL and became very successful. If we just stopped being lazy and went to school, we wouldn't have to worry about getting no reparations. I don't need no handouts. I am a self made man and I'm proud to say that.
Dude just comes outta nowhere spewing nonsense.Nobody said trumps a better option, you fukking clown
Where did I mention any political party in my post you goofy??
