Funny, countless celebrities and athletes have done all this on a far higher level than Tariq yet been clowned. And yet the same people who would dap this tepid ass list are the same people who would dismiss a bill that cut the black un-insured rate by 50% because it didn't have the word "black" in the title or apply only to black people. I thought yall only cared about tangibles. Is it oochie wallie or one mic...
These are bills he sponsored in 2017 alone, many of which will help African American families. He co-sponsored reparations bills for years as well. Brah was actually in the government tryna enact actual change and not just twitting shyt. But nah, they'll give Tariq more love because he says what they wanna hear. Even though he doesn't try to enact any change, just talks shyt and riles people up. Brah will complain about protesters being too peaceful, but his ass ain't been ain't nah nother protest himself. Twitter fingers.
