I have no way of proving this, but I'd be willing to wager many, perhaps most, people only see BLM as a protest/violence machine, and not much more. Sure, they may have a great website, with a bunch of cool bullet points on their agenda, but how and where is this all manifesting itself with the American public at large?? Are you hearing these solutions being discussed by the news media and/or our politicians? Really, all I'm seeing right now are BLM signs associated with mayhem. Which, makes me happy that folks like Ice Cube are inching to the forefront.
I absolutely think #2-#11 is doable. I'd have to think about #1 a bit more. At any rate, I think Ice Cube should take this contract to Washington and get some Congressional support for a sub-committee and begin working on ALL of these NOW. He's already maintained he has contacts/friends from both sides. Shoot, I'd love to see him hook up with Herschel Walker and Tim Scott! Love it if Daniel Cameron could get involved, as well. Power Team!!
Again, because I've showed you this, posted links, posted screen captures, and tried to invite you into a discussion multiple times. It's not just a pretty website with bullet points. If you clicked on those bullet points you would see that this national website has or is trying to create change on a local level. Each of their areas of concern open into detailed examples if you click on them. I again will provide one for example. https://www.joincampaignzero.org/#vision https://www.joincampaignzero.org/force
It's not the fact that it's there, Sly, so much as how is it actually resonating with the American public at large. You seein' it?
It's as if you haven't learned anything over the last few days regarding how your posts come off to other people.
Yes, and I'm trying with you to get it to resonate in a more productive and accurate manner. Maybe if many of us focus together on how to first listen and then work together on improving things we can help to lesson some of the black community's pain and anger. Many of your resonating complaints have been flat out wrong.
Considering this is coming from you, I don't really give a rip, julius. Go away or I'll simply place you on ignore. Probably should have already.
I'm simply telling you what I'm seeing "these days" and what I'm hearing from others. None of whom are on this website. LOL
Yes, that's very obvious. And I'm trying to remove those blinders from you so you can have a more informed and accurate discussion or at the very least a better build foundation for your complaints. Right now your vision and complaints are not based on facts. I'm just trying to help with that.
Go ahead and place me on ignore, it won't mean anything to me. It's a shame when someone refuses to read the room.
ABM. We cant all see it all though. Are you saying that you see everything? And if not, then would you say there may be things happening that you are not seeing? i had no clue ice cube was doing what he did until you posted that link this morning and he has been on this for a while. That alone tells me there must be more going on im also unaware of. You didnt see the bear shit in the woods this morning. Does that mean it didnt shit?
What are these so-called facts? I'm posting links from the very organizations and people you are complaining about. I'm trying to invite you to have a discussion based on these facts. You made statements that aren't true. I've shown you that. Invited you to have a more informed discussion. Then you instead want to talk about perceptions,opinions, and now resonations that support what has already been proven wrong. Come on, just because it "resonates" with some that the earth is flat doesn't that it's fact or even worth discussion. Just because it "resonates" with you that BLM doesn't have national or grassroots leadership or haven't accomplished anything besides protesting isn't fact either.
Sly, there's stuff all over. This is NOT one of those clearly-one-side-has-all-the-answers issues. https://www.theamericanconservative.com/articles/the-blm-platform-destroys-black-lives-that-matter/ I happen to believe that the BLM agenda has somehow clouded itself.....from the inside/out.
