But TBA was wrong about black islanders not being descendants of slaves (he differentiated (sp) between them and “descendants of slaves” as if they didn’t come from slavery.) They are descendants of slaves albeit not American ones.
You're an agent fukk off cacOkay. Then just don't vote if that's your one issue.
Some people are one issue voters like that, they vote for Republicans because they're pro-life even though it goes against their economic success. That's their one issue.
If that's TBA's angle, so be it.
yeah confirmed anti-black bytchHe's for universality. He wants to help everyone.
Bernie needs to be regularly saying that he supports reparations for fba/ados because they've been disproportionately locked out of wealth and resources since they've been here and it's what MLK wanted. This is what I want to hear
If you have 3 cookies and I have 4 cookies, do we have the same amount of cookies if we each get rewarded one extra cookie? Of course we don't, that's Bernie's policies right there, we had specific things done to us and therefore need remedies specifically for us.
Every Presidential candidate says that they want to help everyone. Who cares?
What is Bernie going to do specifically for Black Americans, and FOUNDATIONAL Black Americans in particular?
The answer is NOTHING. Bernie himself has said that numerous times, and he quickly follows up by saying that he marched with Dr. King over 40 years ago. However, Bernie completely disregards and disrespects Dr. King's demand for reparations.
Actions speak loudly. Bernie's actions say that if elected, FBA/ADOS specifically will not benefit under his Presidency.
NO fukkING shyt, YA BIG GOOFY... and Bernie Sanders policies only target a small segment of black society why the fukk you keep saying the majority of us?!? not all of us makes 60k!!!! what part of that do YOU not understand?!?
Here's where your math doesn't work: you keep focusing on the 80% of Black people under a certain income instead of focusing on reparations for 100% of the Black people who are descendants of American slavery.He doesn't need to say that if it's not what he believes. If that's the one issue that you want to vote on, sit it out and don't complain about politics.
Bernie's policies would help 80% of black households. He's specifically focused on 62K and under.
I doubt that 80% of black people would even be able to pass whatever litmus test there'd be to qualify for reparations.
The qualification is whether or not you are a Black descendant of American slavery.
Look above. If you can't get with that, I dunno what to tell you, breh.
Look above. His polices target 80% of black society.
It's ppl making 60K and under. Do you understand that's most of us? That's more us than anyone else.

Bernie has repeatedly told those of us in that group to piss off.
TBA is taking calls again? I'm gonna have to listen to this one.
The Jews and Japanese were given reparations, and they weren't held to some foolish income requirement.Do you understand that 100% of black ppl that are descendants of slaves won't be able to prove that?
The Jews and Japanese were given reparations, and they weren't held to some foolish income requirement.
Proving lineage isn't that difficult. The government owes FBA/ADOS reparations, and if any of the Presidential candidates don't agree with that, then they don't deserve our votes.

I didn’t even know the name of my father’s father prior to a few weeks ago, but I was able to trace side of the family to a plantation w/ a few hours researching on Archive.
That dude is full of shyt
If that's your one issue, you might have to sit this one out (foolishly, imo).
But I disagree with you about the bolded.
Less than half of Americans even know 1 great grandparent.
It's going to end up helping less black ppl than focusing on income.
Exactly. It's easier than ever to research one's history.I didn’t even know the name of my father’s father prior to a few weeks ago, but I was able to trace side of the family to a plantation w/ a few hours researching on Archive.
