Democrats continue to ignore BM. Zohran doesn't mention them in his speech even though they voted for him in bigger #s than BW who he mentioned.

Out of curiosity for this election I did some rough math from the exit polls I saw and it was:

BM total 72,524 - votes for Mamdani 44,965 - for Cuomo 22,482 - other 5077

BW total 103605 - votes for Mamdani 55,947 - for Cuomo 43,514 - other 4144

So @Problematic Pat is wrong

The age breakdown will tell the real story

The vote total is higher for BW who voted in higher numbers. But the percent of BM and BW voters who voted Mamdani is 62% and 54% respectively. So Black men voted for him at a significantly higher percentage.

I bet if we were lower we'd be getting dragged right now about it but crickets since we were higher.

No respect for you nikkaz but you'll be back carrying the water next election cycle.:mjpls:



Not sure if a dedicated thread has been made, but this is even more problematic.

"New York will remain a city of immigrants: a city built by immigrants, powered by immigrants and, as of tonight, led by an immigrant."


These immigrant groups are not at the foundation. Kamala did the same years ago with Arabs are at the foundation, which is a lie. And she probably swapped Black Africans Muslims for Arab, because 25% of enslaved Africans were Muslim. We had Vivek on CNN making false claims about the 2nd amendment and NRA, in a debate with Don Lemon about the Civil War and the history of Black Americans.

These East Indians have not realign to American history and have the nerve to alter it at their will, they think. They've tried the same in the Caribbean, by calming they were the enslaved population who suffered for hundreds of years. These folks are liars.









I agree with The Mirika C Blueprint...

Ethnic Black Americans Didn’t STOP WORKING & DISAPPEAR When Immigrants Were Welcomed In



Mamdani Got it WRONG - He Dismissed Ethnic Black Americans and Indigenous in Speech




I also prompted ChatGTP, What was the contribution by Black Americans in NY? Excellent question — and one that’s too often overlooked.

Black Americans have been foundational to building New York City — physically, economically, and culturally — from its earliest days to the modern skyline.

Here’s a breakdown by historical period:


⚓ 1. Enslaved African Labor (1620s – 1827)


Black people literally built the first New York.

Physical Construction

  • Fort Amsterdam (1625–1627): Built largely by enslaved Africans for the Dutch West India Company — this was the city’s military and administrative hub.
  • Wall Street’s namesake wall (1653): Constructed by enslaved Black men to protect New Amsterdam.
  • Roads & Infrastructure: Early roads such as Broadway and Bowery were cleared and paved by enslaved labor.
  • Docks & Shipyards: Enslaved Africans built and maintained wharves essential to trade and shipping.

Manumission & Free Black Community

  • By the mid-1600s, some Africans were granted “half-freedom,” allowing them small land plots north of the Dutch settlement — this became part of modern-day Greenwich Village.
  • After the English takeover, slavery continued and expanded. By the 1700s, 1 in 5 New Yorkers was enslaved.
  • The African Burial Ground, rediscovered in 1991 near City Hall, holds over 15,000 remains — the largest known colonial African cemetery in North America.

️ 2. Abolition, Activism & Entrepreneurship (1827 – 1865)

  • New York abolished slavery in 1827. Many formerly enslaved people built new lives in the city.
  • Black artisans (carpenters, blacksmiths, dockworkers) helped expand Manhattan northward.
  • Black churches such as Abyssinian Baptist Church (founded 1808) became community and political centers.
  • Entrepreneurs like Thomas Downing (oyster cellar owner) and William Brown (theater owner) created early Black businesses that attracted interracial audiences.
  • New York’s Black residents fought for abolition — figures like David Ruggles, Frederick Douglass, and Henry Highland Garnet organized from Manhattan and Brooklyn.

️ 3. Labor and the Industrial City (1865 – 1910s)


After emancipation:
  • Black dockworkers, carpenters, and laborers helped expand New York’s harbors and rail systems.
  • The Pullman porters, many Black men, were central to rail commerce in and out of New York.
  • Harlem began developing into a major Black neighborhood due to migration from the South and the Caribbean.

4. The Harlem Renaissance (1920s – 1940s)

This era transformed New York into the center of Black American culture and global Black creativity.

Key contributions:
  • Music: Jazz innovators like Duke Ellington, Louis Armstrong, Fletcher Henderson, and Billie Holiday defined the Harlem sound.
  • Literature: Writers like Langston Hughes, Zora Neale Hurston, and Claude McKay redefined American literature.
  • Business: Black-owned clubs, newspapers, and publishing houses flourished.
  • Politics: The NAACP and Marcus Garvey’s UNIA had major New York headquarters.

️ 5. Civil Rights, Labor, and Urban Development (1950s – 1970s)

  • A. Philip Randolph (Harlem) organized the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters, the first Black labor union recognized by a major corporation.
  • Shirley Chisholm (Brooklyn) became the first Black woman in Congress.
  • Architectural and construction workers: Black laborers were part of major city projects (housing, subways, schools).
  • Cultural powerhouses like the Apollo Theater and Black radio shaped American entertainment.

6. Modern Influence (1980s – Today)

  • Hip-hop, born in the Bronx, became New York’s — and the world’s — most influential cultural export, pioneered by DJ Kool Herc, Afrika Bambaataa, and Grandmaster Flash.
  • Black New Yorkers have shaped fashion (Dapper Dan), film (Spike Lee), activism (Al Sharpton, Tamika Mallory), and business (Robert F. Smith, Ursula Burns).
  • Black engineers, architects, and union workers continue to shape new developments — from the Freedom Tower to Brooklyn’s Barclays Center.

In summary:


Black Americans built New York’s foundations, fueled its economy, fought for its justice, and created its cultural identity.
From the walls of New Amsterdam to the beats of the Bronx — the city’s story cannot be told without them.

He can literally acknowledge every ethnic group in NY except BM and dumb nikkas are saying “as long as he give me a few crumbs I’ll be alright!” And “politicians acknowledging my existence as a demographic is for women!”

These dudes have no once of masculinity and below room temperature IQs
