Ice Cube struggling to explain what's good in Trump's Platinum Plan for black people

Cued

Basically saying our lives ain't shyt

Cause its true. Blacks made 60% of what whites made in the 60's and we still make 60% of what whites make now. Black unemployment was double whites back then and still is now. More black folks are actually locked up now than in the 60s. So what world are you living in? The status quo for America has always been black folks at the bottom of the economic ladder.

Today's racial wealth gap is wider than in the 1960s

Thank you.... how the fukk is this even being denied?

Man fukk hip hop. A lot of these rappers that so heavily influenced us are straight clowns. Dione Warwick and reverend butts were right

OK, so now we will dismiss stats that confirm progress. Let me point out something about making comparisons. There's a man whose name has popped up a few times here, possibly first mentioned by @boy.

Multi millionaire, chairman of his own investment group.
Successful by any measure.

Out of his own mouth, he will say that his small firm(13 billion in transactions completed) is small potatoes compared to larger white funds.

Is he a second class citizen ? Is he not a success in his own right?

Are you purposely playing stupid?

This is an example of the dumbing down of america that I always talk about. The foolish and I mean foolish population expects entertainers to speak on behalf of them for every issue. Take up a cause and figure out a resolution.

In the past the population only expected entertainers to stand in solidarity and financially contribute with the cause.

No one expected Ali to go down to the white house and work with nixon on how to pull troops out of Vietnam. No one expected dikk gregory to lead the civil rights movement. No one said hey Pam Grier should be the leader of the women rights movement.

shyt is mind numbing how stupid the American population is. Thats why I say america truly deserves trump. He is everything the american population is...arrogant, lying, disrespectful, talks on matters they don't know about, doesn't believe in science, talks over people, spoiled, rotten, ungrateful, loud mouth, fascinated with material shyt, looks out for self.

He is like every american stereotype rolled all together in one person. He is like if you took all of the american population put them into a lab and made the perfect american. All the way down to him having the fake hair, fake tan and lying about his weight and appearance to the world.

Quoting this so it is easy for me to find . Beautiful.

Damn this is a VERY bad look

I like how we're all ignoring the fact that Steve Harvey met with trump in 2016 with a plan for black people too and Trump didn't do shyt for the next 4 years.

But they (being politicians and policy makers) know that entertainers are least likely to do their research even if they have the opportunity to do so as you mentioned in your post. Why is the outreach to the Black community in America always about reaching out to figures of entertainment (Cardi B Ice Cube etc...) and this is not to insult the entertainers but they are entertainers first and I do not blame them for not have thorough knowledge on the issues even though they are capable of doing so. As a result of lacking in knowledge, the politicians are comfortable and do not get asked the tough questions

You NEED to have people (which we do but just not visible enough as a result of this entertainment culture) who wake up eat, breathe and have dedicated their professional lives to the different issues/policies affecting the community whether it be access to quality healthcare, quality education, affirmative action in higher education, substantial representation in the corporate world and corporate management, access to business start-up capital/entrepreneurship, fair banking/financial services practices etc... I do not expect celebrities to have deep insight into these issues hence I am not disappointed when in fact they don't because that is not what they do.

However there are professionals who have dedicated their whole professional lives either studying/researching these issues or are even professionals in the fields in which these issues present themselves. Those are the ones who are supposed to be face to face with these politicians and policy makers.

They SUSPECT that there’s a low likelihood but I wouldn’t say they KNOW the entertainer won’t.

You don’t get where Ice Cube has got and NOT read...

I suspect they’re banking on the fact that supporters of the entertainers WONT read and research. You get one entertainer, you potentially reach millions of others...

either way, Ice Cube fukked HIMSELF over. I can’t see how he couldn’t seperate the difference between program infrastructure money vs. actual money distributed to Blacks.

I feel like that’s one of the biggest scams of programs designed to help minorities, blacks, etc. they just load the department with mfers who aren’t experiencing ANY of the problem. Now, these individuals are getting jobs, paid, etc while we be asking for basic infrastructure support.

we gotta stop letting these clowns figure out our solutions. They’re literally taking your tax dollars and giving other mfers jobs and support and pretend it’s because you lack something?

more like YOU STOLE our money then used racist idealogy to maintain the illusion...
