☕ Morning fam,
The last 3 administrations showed us things aren’t always what they appear. Obama showed us having a black face didn’t mean being down for black people. Trump, through his 1st Step Act, funding for HCBUs, meeting with Ice Cube and putting a $50 billion offer on the table for black America showed that you don’t have to be BFFs with black people to do for black people. And Jim Crow Joe is showing that leopards don’t change their spots, once a diehard cantankerous racist ass, always a diehard cantankerous racist ass.
And black leaders showed us by not entertaining the $50 billion when it was at play and not pressuring now President Biden to make a counter offer by holding up his agenda like Manchin and Sinema, their loyalty continues to be to party, not black people.
