Killer Mike and Stephen Colbert tackle race

[pointproven214]

My only critique; I'm tired of white people being the center of the solution of racism. Yea, they benefit, but; the gov't has to get our foot off our necks.

to me it is all about economics not racisim if the system gets changed then that is when shyt will actually start to changed.

I don't trust people like Killer Mike or anyone that participates in the political system. If you don't get it by now then there is no need to even deal with you. Hell, even Diddy recently woke up and now he realizes that all this is bs. That's saying alot too. Bernie is this years version of Ron Paul. Before him you had people like Ross Perot. If you want to live in the television and think some guy is just going to walk in and make everything right you out yo damn mind. They murdered JFK in broad daylight and no one went to jail because he thought he could do what he wanted to do.

The political process dictates every part of your life, but you'd rather not participate?

Be a smart dumb nikka brehs

You can't have a successful grassroots movement without getting involved in local politics. You can make a case that voting on a federal level may be in vain, but for your local and state government, its imperative that we get out there and make our voices heard politically.....

The local grassroots movement is politics, it just isn't the same political system that the system gives you. Basically what you are telling me is that we the people can't get anything done without going through the system. I simply don't believe that 'if you can't beat them, join them' attitude.

Let me ask you this... How many presidential campaigns did you contribute to?

Yeah get quiet.

None. None of us really have they are all pre-selected. Really if you think about it, one man gets in but he brings a million different people with him who we don't know and never decided on whether or not they should be there. For the past roughly fifty years it's been nothing but a game of musical chairs with a good amount of the same people staying in Washington just rotating job titles every couple of years. That's because there is a power structure in place. The face of the corporation may change but it's pretty much the same people behind the scenes. Hillary has been around since the early nineties and it doesn't look like she's going anywhere. No matter what happens she will always have a spot available for her in the federal government. Donald Rumsfeld was around since the seventies up until 2006. dikk Cheney was around since the sixties. The list goes on and on.

Read through this thread, I have a few post that are related to this subject.

This was like two years ago so some of my views my have changed slightly. One that has changed is my view of Umar Johnson, I don't co-sign him at all.

killer mike like the most respected dumb smart negro out here. i mean, he borderline sounds smart and wise, until you realise he is on that “its all about class” bullshyt which has been proven to be a triojan horse. nah brah, its is and will always be about race, one thing i get frutrsted with some dudes in the black intellectaul industrial complex is that they are on that whole "these poor white people need to side with blackpeople and we all need to be brothers and take down capitalsim and white supremacy" etc. what they dont realise is that deal was already presented to poor cacs centuries ago, and they rejected it in favor of the "i may be poor and white but at least i aint a ******" deal. now you got killer mike and black freedom struggle movements pushing theat black white brotherhood fallacy.


facts is, for black people to get what we deserve, we might have to subjugate these cacs. thats the harsh realisties we need to accept.

Be mad @ the 1% of the game that actually stands for anything brehs.

If Killer acted like an ignorant goon then no one would put any expectations on him. But because he is active and woke he has to take pot shots from arm chair critics for giving a fukk where others give none... Bizarre how rap fans work

Dudes like Killer Mike, Nas, Mos Def are always accused of being smart dumb for speaking on issues others won't touch so the ones that dare to care are vilified while the ones that don't catch no flack...

What it is is that people get mad because Killer Mike is offering a perspective that's different from theirs. It's like people lack the skill to respectfully disagree with someone. It's like you have to be some (insert expletive or insult) because I don't like what you said.

Killer mike out here caping for white liberals smh. He out here blocking for Bernie Sanders on reparations. Smh. I never trusted this dudes political s from day one. He came off as a hipster reactionary type when he did that Regan track and mentioned Obama. What a clown.

Killer Mike just instigated a new wave of white saviour complexity.

Beat me to it.

*sigh*
I mean...his counsel sounds like it comes from a good motive...
but it doesn't seem...realistic.

Black folks love nothing more than a white person coming around promising them shyt.
Pathetic.
