This is the most open support for black people I have ever seen in my life

[Scustin Bieburr]

Dude stop it. The thread ain't about change. It's about the open support black people been getting globally.

I can appreciate people at least acknowledging the existence of systematic racism, but this feels like

"Brehs, I saw a woman with her baby. She ain't hold it the wrong way and snap its neck " like calling out racism and understanding it is a basic piece of what it means to be a cognitively in tact human being. I'm hoping OP isnt on some "wow, shout out to white people for recognizing our humanity " unironically

The support is great, but frankly I'm surprised that anyone is shocked at cynicism being displayed in this thread when the bar was so low.

Where was these people when that officer shot Sean Bell car 51 times a day before his wedding?
Nah I don’t buy their support either

There are "black lives matter" billboards all over England now

I've never seen that in my life before

That’s because it’s an election year whites stood with blacks in the past. Here’s how it works a tragedy happens and then come nonblacks to use the struggle to get new legislation and laws passed that will benefit them. Then when its done theyll move on. Don’t you find it strange these people was upset when Collin took a knee basicallly blackballing him for the same thing their looting and protesting for. They using this tragedy to get the government to negotiate laws and legislation will be passed to benefit them meanwhile the same police brutality in our communities will continue.

You can end this post & this thread with that opening line. I refuse to believe any of this would be happening if it wasn't an election year.

Dude its ONLY ABOUT THE OPEN SUPPORT AND NOTHING ELSE. Damn y'all making it way deeper than it is. OP is right. This is the most open support for black people that's ever been seen. That's it. Nobody is talking about whether it's real or not because we don't know. All we know is people are globablly openly supporting black people and speaking on the behalf of the black community WE"LL TAKE IT

The open support already done happened. Ain't nothing else to see or wait for. Everybody already done showed their open support. And we go celebrate our win on the front end now and celebrate our win on the back end when it comes.



Dude the entire world is openly supporting black people right now. It's people in other countries having protests and riots for black people. What is there not to believe? Do you need me to post the videos of all the open support?

I've been black for way longer than I've seen open support

I need to see if they keep that same energy

I've seen and dealt with racism all my life and now I'm supposed to believe it magically disappears overnight

yeah ok lmao, keep that same fukkin energy and then we'll see

for now it's trendy, its good for IG and Facebook

1. A law where a federal investigation is automatically triggered if an unarmed individual is killed on American soil by a peace officer(security, police etc.).

2. An independent panel to study the effects of slavery and develop and implement a comprehensive reparations plan

3. A complete overhaul of the prison system.

4. A federal diversity panel that investigates the pay, treatment, and advancement of black people in every non government organization.

5. Collective overhaul of education system to include information contrary to white supremacy. Black kids need to grow up knowing about slavery and racism, but also black peoples accomplishments globally and the causes and components that maintain white supremacy.

6. A health justice act which includes cash stimulus to HCBU medical programs and subsidized health interventions for black seniors including free home care and long term care housing

7. The expansion of , and increased funding to black scholarship programs.

8. Expanded funding to public schools in districts affected by redlining in addition to federal funding for asbestos removal in inner cities

The problem we run into over and over again is that people are too scared to propose things that will benefit black people specifically. Those are just 8 things off the top of my head that will dramatically improve the quality of life for black people in america

If you aren't sending this to your local politicians you just juelzing for daps.

That said, good list.

I find it interesting that the perception of Donald Trump and Colin Kapernick completely flip flopping among White people.

I don't ever recall White people being so scared. They are not scared of Black people or any protest. They have palpable fear of what that Orange fool in the White House might end up doing. He literally called out American troops on White people that had the nerve to protest against him.

 

[Rocket Scientist]

When Travon happen alot of whites jumped on bandwagon. This is a trend for them. Blacks have always been leaders and whites followers. When these pigs are sentenced and Trump is voted out that's when I will be convinced of change.

 

[Michael's Black Son]

White people still aint shyt. Aint nothing got me feeling otherwise

exactly.

people are bored and broke during the shutdown and this shyt conveniently came along and is a big enough wave for everyone to ride.

not falling for empty gestures and boredom-driven white guilt. Motherfukkas wanna be a part of something because it looks good on an IG feed but will they keep this energy? And more importantly, are they ready to get WS refunds considering they’ve been eating so well off of it for centuries?

Damn that's dope. I know i've been getting alot of emails in support of the black community. I've also being seeing alot of channels supporting the black community at the end of their shows. This is dope to see all the love black people is getting from all over the world from the cooperations to the celebrities to different countries to top tv channels to restaurants. Target was the first store burned down and they even came in support of the black community and issued a statement saying they don't care about their stores being looted and burned because black lives are more important.

Official George Floyd Memorial Fund organized by Philonise Floyd

I know with many non-blacks' ulterior motives don't always align with outward actions but, surface level wise, it's strange to see the outpour of support black people have been receiving this past week. From individuals on social media to large corporations. I think it's a good idea for black people to take advantage of this and express our goals for the movement.

Facts

nah this is much different, this is some generational shyt like the 60s. this year will go down in history, shyt youll be telling your grandkids, and will be embedded into U.S history books forever.

covid pandemic to a 2 month quarantine, right into a nationwide riot. things arent going back to normal, we are going to see a new era. btw. theres going to be a second wave of covid....this aint over. 20's is going to be some dark times.

yeah that's the vibes I get
let's hope it's not fool's gold
