Hispanics aren’t our allies, they never have or will be, we just don’t need them voting for republicans because it hurts us.
Or maybe we switch parties because we're not poor anymore and let the hispanics take our place :mjpls:

I see, you recognize that they are not actual allies but you want us to act in a fearful manner over the prospect of them voting Republican in this state.

They make up 5% of the Virginia Electorate, so why should we worry if a few more vote Republican? Our electorate outnumbers them by nearly 3 times their electorate percentage, plus consider the extenuating fact that the White electorate outnumbers us both combined by 3.5 times. So with those stats in hand, are you still of the opinion that Black people in Virginia should forgo our interests out of fear that some time in the future more Hispanics will vote Republican in this State?

What Interests have we given up:gucci: this was money that was only used to caused division by a Republican governor, there was and is enough money to to both easily, without this even making the news.

First, we have already established that there was never a together to cause a division.

Second, are you saying more funding for HBCUs is not an important interest for Black Americans?

Last, are you a Virginian? Your statement implies that you are actually a resident here to even exclaim "What Interest have we given up". If you are not a Black American Virginian, then your interest is not even important on this issue.

Edit: Also, don't think I did not notice you side-stepped my original question.

Hold up, so what are you saying here?

Are you saying the Virginia HBCUs should give back the money to stop some Hispanics from going to the right?

I just want you to answer that, because I don’t want to put words in your mouth. Should the HBCUs give back the money?

Of course not, I’m saying this was used as a Obvious political move by republicans as a way to use make moves that will will eventually hurt sane black people, by increasing votes for them. It’s not like it was either them or us for this money, can you admit this? It was engough money for both issues without creating drama where it wasn’t necessary.

That was admitted by me way back in the beginning of the thread. I acknowledged what he was doing; I also already said that I did not care.

I personally pointed out if it was reversed, Hispanics would not be suggesting what some of you are suggesting towards us. Also, that in fact there would probably be think pieces, by those like you, telling us why we should be fine with the move of funds from HBCUs to DACA.

So, what I am saying is you are bringing up a point that has already been argued and gone past.

I may be wrong, but the impression I get from you is that we Black people are suppose to never accept any sort of funding from a Republican politician in office, because we should be scared of their ulterior motives. Is that what you are trying to suggest?

Are you implying that Black people who do not agree with your stance on this issue are not sane?

Yes, I can admit it now and I’ve admitted it earlier. Most on here are aware that this is game play by the Republican.

I’m just happy we benefited from the move, as HBCUs are in need of funding. Those Virginia HBCUs need the funding.

You’re very wrong ,ll, we are tax paying citizens and deserve everything I can get. What I’m not is naive and myopic and understand the political ramifications of shyt like this and how it will affect my people. You said you don’t care , I do, so it is what it is and I’m going to continue to bring up the point because it’s the only thing that matters.
