Hey Non-White Americans
You Did This to Yourselves
Time To Learn A Lesson About Ridiculing Black People for Trying to Keep this Nation Safe
Because Trump holds the Senate, the House and the Supremacist Court in his hip pocket, we are now seeing the consequences of “the People” being lazy enough not to exercise their rights to squash white supremacy and to, instead, put the nation in jeopardy while Obama was President for the first term.
For eight years [two terms], Black America had a unique opportunity to uphold the blood-stained banner of its own ancestry and forefathers, its own kith and kindle, but were too busy dreaming of personal encounters with Obama for photo opps and what-have-you, and staring at Mrs. Obama’s hair and nails and shoes and asking where she shopped “at” with her daughters.
First, as I stated in my book “The United States of Georgia,” a book about the things I observed on the campaign and voting trail in Atlanta in 2007 and 2008, Black people down south wholesale did not believe the “superior white they” were going to let Obama win.
Let him? You gotta make CERTAIN he does win, I told them.
When they finally realized we were about to get our first Brother-Not-Undercover in high office because they actually got up and registered and showed up and VOTED, it was a glorious moment to actually see the equalizing element come to the table.
