Van Latham (paraphrase) "If you can't work with Blk conservatives who are trying to improve the lives of Blk men, you don't love Blk people"

So the context. He's interviewing this dude named King Randle. Not familiar with bro but after hearing this interview, I like what he's doing to mentor Black boys. But Van Latham surprised me with his statement. You can hear the actual quote 1:15 49 mark.

So my question is, do you agree with Van? If a conservative, who is doing things in the Black community to help Black people (ie open a school specifically for Black boys). Can you find common ground to support that person in that area? Does helping Black people coming before political affiliation. Or does that person being on the opposite side automatically cause you to oppose them. Even if they are doing good things. Sorta like the drug dealer who hands out turkeys on Thanksgiving. Is that how you view them? Or is Van right. If you can't find common groud, you don't truly love Black people?

So here is that Pastor Corey guy Van mentioned in the interview. He's builing a mult-million dollar community center in Chicago. Once again, how do you view this. Is this matter of Black first. Or is the conservative version of Nino Brown?

P.G.
I listened to the entire interview and it was borderline disgusting to hear him and Rachel be on that, “The goal is to get home alive” bullshyt which alllows police departments to just do whatever the fukk they want, when they want, our rights be damned.

However, I do like that he is teaching young men valuable skills that can help them gain steady employment without the burden of predatory loans.

Ultimately, we don’t have to agree on everything but if we can come together and help our community in some way, we should be all for it.

i just dont understand this partnership.

white conservatives want the complete subjugation of the black race, point blank.


I dont know what these negroes are thinking
Can't speak for all blk conservatives. But with King Randle guy. After hearing this interview and his interview with Roland. The appeal is the "do it yourself", don't depend on the government stance. Basically why some are drawn to NOI, Malcolm, Farrakhan, etc. Not saying that's accurate. Just saying I think that's the thinking behind it.

Ironically the police argument mirrors what dudes say to women about protecting themselves about rape. In a fair world you should be able to exercise your rights, but in the real world youll have to understand what may come towards you if you do.

Knowing that cops get away with murder the majority of the time, is it not better to just record the experience and just take it court instead of potentially getting yourself hemmed up.

Well that’s ignorant and counterproductive

I can work with and build with a black conservative that has ideas and potential solutions they believe benefits our people. I can't work with a black conservative that is trying to push Trump and telling me and the majority of our people are slaves on the plantation.

We don't have to agree on everything, but we absolutely MUST agree that whatever our political leaning, it is rooted in wanting the best for our people.
