The Breakfast Club - Bernie Sanders Interview: Talks Reparations, Prison Reform & His Black Agenda

[King Jae]

Actually the slave record were shockingly detail and are still around today, slaves were worth alot money which is why they kept good records

Believe what u want bruh...too many accounts of them destroying history and artifacts the world over for me to take their word

 

[TRY GOD]

And the end of the day the result is the same, white people are telling you to your face that they won’t give any money to redress the evils they have committed.

So what now?

for starters we will withhold our vote

:awdahell:what the hell do you not understand about Blacks having the second highest voter turnout? This is in a nation where people don't vote of ALL races. Thats a crippling factor in itself

 

[TRY GOD]

If y'all really thought the country that has done what they have to us would give us money in return for it then y'all really don't understand how racist this country really is.


Even if Bernie was for it you think that shyt is getting passed in Congress


His programs targeting incarceration, drug decriminalization, college tuition and health care reform are the best you'll get from white people at this point. The rest is going to be up to us.

:awdahell:its not about "what they will give us." It is ABOUT WHAT IS OWED.

33 Million+ ADOS. CAN YOU IMAGINE WHAT EVEN A 1MILLION ADOS REVOLT WOULD LOOK LIKE? A PEOPLE WHO BUILT AND ARE FULLY INTEGRATED INTO AMERICAN SOCIETY IN ALL ASPECTS AND LEVELS?:awdahell:

Like someone else said

Just canceled repayment of student loans and I’m good

Man cancelling student debt would skyrocket the economy overnight and is as good as money to a lot of folks. There are people out here 250k+ in school debt. They will never pay that shyt off when you factor in interest.

 

[The Up Right Man]

Cancel school debt as reparations? “And I’m good!”

Selfish, you shouldn’t speak on reparations ever if this is your thought.

 

[The Devil's Advocate]

The dem. party can't even afford a 2% drop off. In fact they need the Black turnout to be at B.O's level, or better to have a chance to win!

#Adosorbust

and yet knowing that... they still don't give a flying fukk to even LIE about it and say they'd give us one. What does that tell you?? The party that wants and needs us the most, won't even fake it or meet halfway on reparations, knowing it could cost them the election


Makes it real simple for me... They already don't give a fukk about our vote.. They'll take that energy and put it towards the newly nationalized hispanics, after they get a daca deal through

They already 10 steps again, ready to cut us out, and we acting like sitting out is gonna help.. Us sitting out IS their plan

 

[TripleAgent]

Glad he was brave enough to say it out right

Reparations don’t make sense. It just sounds lazy and not anything that will benefit generations

I think giving more balance and levelling the playing field in education, crime, health, jobs, etc. Will help the black community more than a cheque

Kinda reminds me of the Chapelle Show skit

It's the proper start to fixing the community. Economics are the only true way to "level the playing field". We would wield enough power to defend ourselves against the fukkery as a group And speak for yourself, smart people will do great things with it.

 

[Firefly]

Stop calling it reparations and make specific "programs" like everyone else who buys politicians.

That's literally all you have to do and all these people will back it. They would love nothing more than to get more of black folks money hand over fist


Money in the hands of people who don't know what to do with money doesn't help anyone but the people who been taking advantage the whole time.

Just my 2cent

 

[staticshock]

And he’s the one that would give it.

I’ve been following the reparations situation for over 15 years, I was obsessed in college - I firmly believe that if we don’t get them under trump, it ain’t happening.
