Not to sound pessimistic. But it seems like you don't have much time left to do so. Especially if Hispanics are gonna be the new "IT" demographic as well as already being the largest minority in the US.

We either do it or we starve out, simple as that :hubie:

Not to mention, we can still push Congressional and Senatorial candidates to push for reparations, as we happen to live in sizable ADOS districts and it don't take that many votes to win those elections.

I don't know if any presidential candidate will adopt a reparations platform this year, but the Dems still need us. No candidate has won the nom without majority Black support since '88, plus we were a fifth of Dem voting in '16. If no candidate comes through for us, we focus on getting local candidates to have a Black agenda.

Yeah the DNC is caping for Hispanics, but alot of these Hispanics identity as white, plus some Hispanics like Cubans are Trump stand.

Agreed. But it's more effective if you have a cadre of new replacements for the CBC. They do be on some bullshyt at times.

I don't know how much longer that stats will hold true.

Most of the DNC is white. So, I don't know how Hispanics identifying white will help black people. :patrice:

:jbhmm:i think what @Captain_Crunch is get at is because more are Hispanics identifying themselves as white they are now much more likely than before to vote republican rather than democrat .

I think the trick there though. Is that they'll vote GOP after they've secured their residency/citizenship/voting rights from the Dems.

Then the issue may become hispanics identifying as white voting against reparations.

Yeah it's like that Cynthia twitter post from Dec... Dem's have already checked out on us.



So they may still "need" us right now, but for how long is the question. I can't see them needing us for another 30 or hell 20 years.....stagnant or declining black political capital/power.. vs increasing latino numbers/power/capital and a resurgent white nationalism from the right/left.

Not a good position to be in, in the future..

If we can just awaken 3% of our folk we will be in a better situation.

Baby boomers will make millennial millionaires even richer - Business Insider

I think this article is a good way to plant a seed on the boomers and folk in your family who have kids.

Simply say, white millennials are set to inherit 68+ trillion from their parents, what are you passing down to your offspring? :hubie:

How do you expect your children/grandchildren to compete, in an era where you can't thrive just off income alone?
