Black men split on Los Angeles mayor's race

[The God Poster]

Dems always panic when election gets close. Just make sure the base is fed while you are in office & there would be no need to panic

Fed? Negroes should just be happy Dems ain’t the Republicans & at least throw em scraps

It could always be worse

Fools getting greedy tryna get decent meals

Black men are tired of Black feminist and fakkits demonizing us. This shaming shyt is pushing less educated and politically astute black men into the arms of the Republicans. The problem is the Republican Party is built off of anti black maleness. We just had a Republican senate candidate blame Black men for mass shootings. Do you really think those cacs want to see black men thriving?

This whole thing sounds like the pre game to making the black man the scapegoat and fallguy(s) if she loses. The thing is, this article and argument reads as if LA has an Atlanta type demographic where the city is 50% black, 40% white, 4% Asian, and so forth. LA is like a 40% white, 40%, Latino, 9% black, 11% Asian type makeup.

The black male vote in LA is key but far from being the main factor in her getting elected mayor. Like I said in a previous post, she's got to get in good with the Whites, Mexicans, Jews, Koreans, etc. right along with securing the black vote. She's in a melting pot city not an old school city with only 2-3 main racial groups to garner support and votes from. And what about the black females in LA? Are they on board with Bass or are we looking at another Hillary Clinton situation where white women said they had her back but all ended up voting for Trump once the lights came on

If the Democratic numbers from black women drop there's a thousand think pieces about what's wrong with the Democratic party.
If the numbers drop from black men, then it's all about what's wrong with black men.

Secondly, we have to get over this "criminal justice reform" is black people's number one priority. It's a liberal, racist implication that the majority of us are criminals. We're not. We want good jobs, we want good schools, we want to not be the victim of violent crimes and robberies.
...and then way down on our list is we'd like our distant cousin or friend's friend not to have their life ruined because of some low level drug offense.

But Caruso is a Democrat as well. Ain’t he ? So I’m confused here

He's a former Republican who is ïndependent" because he knows that a Republican ain't winning in LA period. That's even if every single Black person votes Republican.

Kinda p*ssy if you ask me.

• In the article it said that only 13% are Black Not really sure if she meant america as a whole or LA but everyone knows that Black people are leaving LA in droves. In the article Bass didn't even bother to respond, Not even a mealy mouth statement about concern for all Angelenos and the Black community specifically.

She has pollsters and been in LA politics for a long time I'm sure she knew she was underwater with Black Men and she doesn't really care.

They have niche businesses that other black women support (hair, nails, cosmetics, etc).

Unless we all gonna open up barbershops and get haircuts from each other, it’s gonna take a little more effort on our part.

Well the Black haircare business is booming ask the Koreans. That's a start and should be owned by us just the way the Black Male haircare market is owned by Black Men.

Start with Barbershops, Liquor stores and cell phone shops then by hood strip malls.

Take back the fast food soul food market scale up from there.

 

[BaggerofTea]

It's probably fundamentally over for us as a people

Some Black people only followed Trump because of his 'celebrity' days on tv and the idea he was a billionaire..

The lack of education and desire to suck white dikk is killing us metaphorically and soon physically.

Are Koreans Keeping Blacks Out of the Hair Weave Industry?
The Ugly Side Of the Beauty Supply Market

In an article published on Cascade Patch, Devin Robinson, owner of Atlanta’s Beauty Supply Institute, attributes the lack of African-American business owners in the industry to cost mark-ups by Koreans.


According to the article, Korean-American entrepreneurs control all major components of the beauty supply business. There are four central distributors serving a large portion of the beauty supply stores in the country, all Korean-owned. These distributors only work with other Koreans in order to dominate the market.



“The Koreans strategically make it harder for us to get into the business. They have the supplies the customers want,†Robinson said. “They sell it to us at higher prices or they deliver the products late to the black-owned stores. Sometimes they don’t allow orders from us at all.â€


For almost 50 years, the Korean-American community has dominated the black beauty supply market by opening large stores, buying out smaller black-owned ones and using the faces of black celebrities on their products and black employees in their stores to grow their businesses in the black community.

Also there is a black organization that exist to help black people break in to the hair-care biz

B.O.B.S.A. | Black Owned Beauty Supply Association

Why B.O.B.S.A.? BOBSA is the premier national organization that provides African American’s the platform to demonstrate competitive leadership in the $9 billion dollar Black Hair Care & Cosmetic Industry nationwide and internationally. We recognize, value, and seek out those individuals and ...

B.O.B.S.A. has set up a program to help the black consumer to identify black manufacturers’ products by allowing these independent black manufacturers to use the BOBSA logo on the back of their packaging or bottles. We have created a special logo for this program This would be a black manufacturer’s membership program where we would allow B.O.B.S.A. ’s logo Lady in the Circle on their packaging.


This membership would cost from $500 to $1000 for two years and it would enable us to create a promotional program to drive the consumer to the black-owned manufactured products by using social media, print ads in magazines and radio. All of BOBSA’s network platforms and benefits will be added to this membership program.

All our current members that are manufacturers of wet goods and private label brand hair would be grandfathered into this program. We are an advocate for the black hair care industry through the networking business association that is available to cosmetologist, barbers and other businesses that are involved with the black hair care industry across this country.

They thought he was a harmless fun billionaire, not the retarded reincarnation of Hitler.

That's why you trust no cac in this world..

Thing that pisses me off about this is that Trump was ALWAYS the retarded Hitler. Him and his daddy made their fortunes by renting out whites-only apartments. It wasn't a secret, it was a federal fukking case and front page news. There were tons of other racist receipts on him too and none of those rich fools cared. They just kissed his ass cause he built up this image of a carefree wealthy playboy who threw money around and they wanted to be like him.

Same with this mayoral candidate. Rich-ass white Republican who is ON RECORD as running on a pro-police, tough-on-crime agenda, so you know exactly what kind of time he's on, yet some of the same men who are going off about "Jim Crow Joe" because of the crime bill 30 years ago are going to vote for someone doing the same shyt now....why? Because Snoop Dogg endorsed him?

 

[Bossino]

This ain't it. You LA c00ns better vote that black woman in. It's the governor, Senate, and presidential elections where need to apply this kinda pressure. Not push up on your local black politicians you should be supporting them you idiots.

fukk that I didn't vote in the CA elections a week ago because I was busy and I no longer care to hold down black women who don't have black spouses. fukk all that, bw are their own thing and what politicians are largely referring to when they say black people

 

[Bossino]

Once again

Everybody including black women want black men not to think for ourselves and we should follow them and their agenda

Black men are just tired and our demands are not being heard , so many are just either not voting or going the other way at this point until someone will actually take us serious

I'm trying to leave the country so in the interim I'm not voting

 

[Bossino]

Educated black men will always vote.

Dawg I'm that plan on leaving the country and am not pressed to do it anymore tbh
