Anyone with a brain knew this, your great grand kids will have a semblance of a chance and that percentage gets greater from them on. A lot of people in your age group are evil and the only way to progress is for them is to die and that means you will have to go with them :manny:

Funny thing about this movement is they'll tell you not to vote or participate in any civil service unless either party agrees to their demands. All while sitting on the sidelines as the court gets redder and more racist lol. It's not a serious movement, it's internet trolling. Reparations will never happen but if I was on that wave I'd at least want to ensure the Supreme Court had enough liberals on it to ensure hypothetical legislation doesn't get thrown out by activist judges.


Tariq tells people that.


No other reparationist tells anyone that.

Where's african american in my sentence?
you keep mentioning how people know distinctions, when thats not the case. In your post you mentioned to terms that have no real ethic distinctions, that are predicated on people acting in good faith, "to know who we talking about". Im saying thats not good enough

Again Ados and FBA focus on lineage and ethnicity, a concept lost on most of us. I agree with the sentiment and how it could change the way we think and move. As i've said before the acronyms themselves have their shortcomings. Ados suffers the same pit falls as african-american

FBA sounds like a black owned life insurance company. They're not perfect but there getting people hip on something that was obviously missing
You're repeating yourself breh. I repeated myself too, but on very specific (cause I know that's what's important) indicators, and the only thing I can gather is "they made an acronym for us"


Culturally: See everything I already said

Politically: ADOS and FBA have no acts, no bills, nothing to account for.

I wanted to give you a chance but I gotta be real and say what you already know: They don't offer anything extra and politically they're hurting us. They just happen to resonate with you for whatever reason.

I've said plenty of times

Getting people focused on the idea of ethnicity and lineage, which would change how we move as a group and many facets of our culture. Now we are black and we are American, an open ended culture with no boundaries. Everyone ,mostly outside observers, and add white AMERICAN supramacist, knows this about us. I dont know why this is hard

It's hard because we literally had shyt like own National Anthem/Independence Day and you're still talking about "focusing on the idea of ethnicity"


Is there some Nigerian and Jamaican American anthems/american indepence days, etc that I don't know about? What exactly is ADOS/FBA providing beyond and acronym?

lets break it down

Having cultural institutions by way of presence here for centuries is going to happen
Amongst the population themselves the idea of ethnicity and lineage is not as focused as it should be, or like other groups. THEE OTHER GROUPS KNOW THIS ABOUT US
We currently act as a boundless all encompassing group because there is no actual ethnic defined cultural core
Among the living embodiment, there's no cultural core mentality in how we think and how we move. Again other groups recognize this about us and simply take advantage of it
For most we know that we are regular black and american. The semblance of ethnic identity is weak among us. Theres no way something like "african-american" would get off the ground, if it wasnt

lift every voice and sing is not getting the job done breh . Fba and ados is not perfect, but the lineage based sentiment is the right direction. Your blind if you do not see that "distinction" is paramount

We are really only getting by because we are the majority presence of blackness in the country. If not we would be in trouble

But I though the key was to not vote and allow Republicans to take office and they’d pass legislation and nominate Supreme Court Justices that would support reparations…???
