Are you sure? I don't they strike down legislation against native americans?
The Native American stuff was done at a time when we weren't dealing with a Republican Party that has become defiantly racist with their main targets being black people. I think the last major Native focused legislation was the Indian Self-Determination and Education Assistance Act of 1975. And even the legislation that they have gotten isn't close to what they asked for. They are still fighting for their land to be returned to them and to stop having their land stolen/corrupted by corporations.
But I can see the Republicans moving on to fukking over Native Americans once they are done fukking over black folks.

Taking away affirmative action needs to stop.

The reason we are where we are now is because they changed affirmative action in the early 2000's.


This needs to be stopped.
Affirmative action is the only thing we have of aid in america as black people.

That would still hit a wall of lawsuits by conservative activist groups and as long as the Supreme Court is majority conservative it is almost guaranteed that any legislation, executive order or policy that is targeted to benefit just black people or even just black people who are descendants of chattel slaves in the US will be struck down.

If it's lineage-based it has a much better chance at surviving a conservative court than a race-based claim does. Plus, you're specifically addressing a group that has been wronged through this country's own legislation. Much easier to argue if not prove in court.

So there was no point for the Civil Rights Act right?
The point was to end systematic discrimination and unequal segregation but did any of that really end? Aren’t we still talking about voting rights in 2022?

Look man, threads like this only exist for one reason and one reason only, for #BlueMAGA to try to bully all of us into voting for the people who sent our jobs overseas, mass incarcerated us, and helped banks steal our homes, and made it harder to declare bankruptcy.:francis:

"See what happens when y'all try to demand something for y'all vote just like Latinos/Asians/Jews everybody else?:damn:"

"See what happens when you don't just shut up and vote for who we want you to?:damn:"

Show me another racial group that voted 80% for one party other than us?:stopitslime:

We don't owe anybody shyt. If they can't win our votes, then fukk 'em:yeshrug:

Let 'em win with 75% of the Black vote:ehh:

Blaming Black folks who are 12% of the population for Amerikkka's White Supremacy is akin to blaming a woman who got raped for wearing a short skirt.

White people, including White folks like Joe "I don't want my kids growing up in a racial jungle" Biden never wanted ADOS to have Affirmative Action, that's why they've gone out of their way to make sure that women, gays, and immigrants are the majority of people who actually benefit from it. Stop acting like if a small percentage of Black people voted differently, our lives would all just be magically different than it's been every other time.:stopitslime:

99.9999% of us will never go to Harvard, Yale, Princeton, or Columbia.

Most of us will have to go to the workforce, an HBCU, or PWI.

That's the way that it's been.

That's the way it's going to continue to be.

Nah ima give TLR niccas their props. They ain't complaining. They are happy to see conservative daddy setting shyt straight with all these damn minorities, immigrants and liberals.

shyt is sad.
I didn’t even come in this thread because I knew infiltrators would be on some bullshyt.

I feel like TPTB have been ramping up their efforts lately. Probably in preparation for election time. But I feel a huge shift on this website frfr.

We had plenty opportunity to purge this place of these obvious trolls and shyt flingers but everyone decided we need to impress Trump supporters and white nationalists by proving we're not a "monolith" or a "liberal echo chamber." So in all our insecure attempts to prove that we don't suck up to Democrat we went right around and embraced alt-right nonsense and made this forum a welcoming place for insensitive hate speech...mostly against other black people no less, flame wars, whacked out conspiracy theories that would make a st0rmfr0nt account pause, MAGA agendas against (only black and latino) immigration, some fantasy of America being a better place for African Americans if it were back to being 90% white and free of other minorities and liberals. I remember back when someone coming up on a black forum trying to stoke up resentment against liberals and other minorities (as opposed to conservatives), and spreading a bunch of obvious right wing propaganda while claiming to be "independent" was a ban on sight. No questions asked. We use to be serious about keeping these places productive spaces for genuine discussion. It's really damn sad to see the slow regression of black internet spaces since Donald Trump.

BTW anyone know if Tariq Nasheed, Yvette Carnell, or Tone Talks "went in" on these Donald Trump conservative judges going after race based equality laws with even half the energy they have for random immigrants doing nothing? Where are our stalwart ADOS, FBA, or whatever to fight this threat to the lives of ADOS. I thought we hate those damn liberals trying to fool us, and prefer our racism out in the open because it wakes us up and call us to action. Well here it is. Right out in the open. So now what? Any word? I'm ready to take action.

Taking AWAY rights ain't gonna help black folks do any better. Those regular PWIs will get even more non-black, even as the white population decreases in America.

So actually, it's HBCUs, community colleges, (some) trades, and a shytty workforce, will be the new norm.

Yeah, this was going to happen eventually anyways:yeshrug:

White women & immigrants basically got all the benefit of Affirmative Action, while ADOS got the blame and the shame of it

Whatever happens to uplift the Black community is not going to come from elitist ass White institutions.
Time to invest in our own schools:francis:

I know guys still want to buy that logic that in order to be successful, you have to be some high powered doctor, lawyer, or in the STEM fields from an Ivy League, but there's plenty of successful Black folks who didn't go to Harvard, Yale, or Princeton.

I mean, just look at this list of names.

Kamala Harris - Howard

Lonnie Johnson (inventor) - Tuskegee

Thurgood Marshall - Howard

John W. Thompson (Microsoft Chairman after Bill Gates) - Florida A&M

Sylvia Adams (Surgeon General) - Hampton

David Satcher (Director of CDC) - Morehouse

Katherine Johnson (Hidden Figures) - West Virginia State
Most of those are black ivy’s tho

I’ll let my Asian comrades handle this.

Timestamped (listen until at least 1:20:00)


Funny how the Asian can clearly understand this. :dwillhuh:

Asian dude on the right is very intelligent.
But lady of the left is right, it should be reformed, not abolished
