Explain how this tired tactic works for the black community?
A Bad Check for Black America - Boston Review
Nixon’s embrace of “black capitalism” decimated the black community and turned the wealth gap into a wealth chasm.www.bostonreview.net
Yes and my point is even if it's approved it's not the answer for black people. Black capitalism has never helped the black community. So it's empty promises meant to gain the black vote as usual
Nothing...neither side will do anything for my nor your black ass. You good with the proposal and pandering for ya vote?And what's Don proposing on doing for yo Black ass?
I'd rather them pander to me and mention me rather than them saying fuck me to my face.
I get you confused with Ados because you keep talking about things specifically concerning black americans. What you posted as demands:
So as a black man those issues shouldn't concern me? These are issues that need to be addressed with policy. This should be the focus not weed and crypto
Lol but pandering is saying fuck you to your face. Proposing crypto and weed because that's what they think black men like is disrespectful

YOU said "the problem here is instead looking for a target or waiting for a target we should be developing the target."
What the fuck do you think ADOS is? And before replying actually GO READ the website!
Black Agenda » The ADOS Advocacy Foundation
Our Black agenda efforts reflect a concern for, and a commitment to, advocating for policies that will eliminate the divides faced by all Black Americans.
Reparations » The ADOS Advocacy Foundation
President Biden must direct Congress to propose and deliver a federally led Reparations package identifying a definite start date with no fixed end date.
now you said this and your buddies cosigned it....
production, distribution, and sale of America’s newest cash crop, cannabis. And while Black American inclusion in the cannabis industry is an aspect of reparative justice, the ADOS Advocacy Foundation rejects any language and legislation which frames that inclusion as reparations for slavery and Jim Crow, or as that which would constitute a meaningful solution to closing the wealth gap between white and Black Americans.
We require the following:
- Since 40% of prisoners convicted of drug crimes are Black,9 the government at all levels must mete out cannabis redress using the framework of “The 40% Rule.”
- 40% of all licenses for the cultivation, distribution, and sale of cannabis must be set aside for Black Americans, with special consideration given to those formerly incarcerated for drug crimes generally and marijuana specifically. State and local jurisdictions where cannabis is now legal must provide immediate redress in the form of a 40% set-aside for licensing, funding, training, and support of Black licensees that create a pathway to equitable ownership and sustainability in the cannabis industry. State and local jurisdictions where cannabis is not yet legal must institute The 40% Rule before one cannabis license is issued.
- The government must compel all licensees to adhere to The 40% Rule in hiring and take affirmative action to reach parity in the recruitment, hiring, promotion, and retention of Black Americans, with particular consideration for those who have been incarcerated for drug crimes.
- There must be a minimum of 60% ownership stake for Black licensees who wish to partner with non-Black investors. Non-Black investors cannot have more than a 40% interest in the company at any point in the life of the company.
- Marijuana-related taxes, fees, and costs of adherence to regulations should not be passed down to Black consumers through the Black owners. Black communities should not be burdened with the cost of repairing what America has broken with the drug war. As such, we require that a 50-year tax abatement from any marijuana-related taxes be given to all Black-owned cannabis dispensaries. Black licensees should only be subject to regular state and federal income taxes and local sales tax during this period.
- Transfer or sale of a cannabis license or business is subject to The 40% Rule.
- President Biden must issue a blanket pardon to all persons incarcerated in federal prisons for marijuana-related crimes as well as those on parole or probation. The President must also expunge their records and fully restore their voting rights. Everyone must come home. In addition, the Biden-Harris administration must direct the Offices in charge of social programs to ensure eligibility for programs such as TANF, Section 8, and Medicare to support returning citizens and ensure their reintegration into society and reunification with families. The Work Opportunity Tax Credit (WOTC) must also be increased for these returning citizens to incentivize the private sector to do its part to help returning citizens reenter the workforce.
Cannabis » The ADOS Advocacy Foundation
THE BLACK AGENDA Cannabis America must right a wrong In 2009, an undercover Louisiana police officer approached Fate Winslow, a Black homeless man. The police officer was soliciting marijuana, and Winslow went off to obtain $20 worth of the drug from a white dealer nearby. He returned and made...
and just so we're clear I'm not making shit up....this comes from links @VAiz4hustlaz provided himself...
NOW....can we get a clear consensus and agreement on what it is the black community needs???
the argument has been issues specific to the community...by specific its inferred that we want issues addressed exclusively for us...and whats usually held up as an example are gay bills and rights and asians hate crime law....stuff like that.
so whats trump proposed..since the black vote is so sought after??
Ok and what's your point? They cater to gay groups because alot of them are gay and closeted. The black people in these rooms seek validation and ascribe to be white so they don't relate to the poor in our community. That bullshit Kamala came up with today was aimed at the black middle class and the bourgeois. None of that shit helps poor black people
He doesn't need the black vote. He's upfront and honest about his disdain. The Dems cloak it in bullshit every election then show their true colors after they are elected
if he doesnt need the black vote and he's upfront about his disdain..why are blacks voting for him??? Why is there an uptick in black men specifically voting for a person who doesnt need their vote and shows disdain for them????
I don't know nor am I the spokesperson for all black people. I would assume it's because the Democrats and Kamala show the same disdain but cloak it in shit like crypto and more black capitalism.
ok and your point?
what you explained seems to come from a place of emotion rather than reason
No it comes from a place of history. There is no emotion on my end because I do not participate in the process nor expect anything from either side. I can look at it clearly because I am not tied to any party with hopes for change lol.
you said some black men are voting for trump because their insulted by kamala.. even tho trump shows the same level of disdain (your word) thats rooted in emotion
thats something you need to get on your state rep and congressperson about...you know down ballot voting and all.
Ok and? That's their issue...take that up with them
