For Juneteenth, CNN political historian Leah Wright Rigueur and senior political commentator Van Jones discuss the significance of supporting the Black community. #CNN #News
I prefer to not stand by ignorant ass black folk. If they can admit that it was Africans who was running the slave trade. I'm done with a people who constantly lie. The Irish were the first slaves in america. And the black community refuses to admit the black k slave owners. So no I have no respect. And that's hard cause I have African blood and it shames me to no end on that note
Does this moron realize the entire world even in Africa? Was a racist ball of crap against mini races. The United States is the country that changed the world on race issues. The United States is the country that fought a Civil War over race issues. Africa slaughters millions over tribal differences even in the modern day. Ignorant about history and itâs inexcusable.
Juneteenth should be a day of celebration of freedom. A day of positive thought. We donât celebrate the Fourth of July and talk about how bad the British were. A never-ending victim mentality. Itâs not a way forward. 600,000 Americans died in the Civil War. Juneteenth should also be a day to remember that.
I volunteered to serve in the US Army, Military Police Corps when I was 17. It was the early 1970s. I was supporting the direction our nation was moving in. Trump and MAGA are destroying everything that makes America great. Fake bone spurs Real convicted Felon
Why does everyone need to keep propping up the black community?
Why is the black community in such need of every other race support?
And when I say the âblack communityâ I mean the American black community?
You claim to have this deep culture but you NEED everyone else to do most things for you!
YOU are your own worse enemy. You glorify illegal activity, one or no parent homes, and that an education is for uncle toms.
And please donât think this Jones dude in anyway supports you. He, like the dem party, needs you to be victims so they can use you as a platform to line their pockets.
Everyone in America benefited from the black struggle, my mother was born in 1921 the granddaughter of people that were in bondage! She lived through Jim Crow, the Civil Rights Movement and she died during black lives matter! She said it's never ending it could be exhausting , but stay on course! My mother danced when Barack Obama walked in the White House! Stay the courseđ
America is still ugly. She has too many devious ways and actions. Here we are in 2025, and we have a racist who would like to move Blacks as far backwards as he could..
Is there anyone on the planet who doesn't know about slavery in america. Blacks can't shut up about it. Slavery existed all over the world and for a lot longer than in the US. If you are really concerned about slavery go to africa and the Middle East, where it still exists today and protest …
Good lord shut up. Every race can cry about things from their past but it wont accomplish anything. Shut up.
The fatigue is real.
Bwaahaahaaaaaa
Always living in the past, YAWN!
Van Jones is hardly the person to push this message lol although I do respect a lot of his work
NO WAY!!!!!
They VOTED FOR SOMEONE THAT HATED THEM AND NOW THEY KNOW HOW IT FEELS THINKING IT WOULD HURT BLACK AMERICANS SORRY đ

He's had a lot of privilege on his side and it subtly comes through.
So the dynsmic that makes us american is hypocrisy, and we should celebrate this hypocrisy. Thank you for thst insite mr. Jones. đ

VPVance refers to open borders Democratic Sen. Alex Padilla as âJosĂ©â while defending Trumpâs use of National Guard in LA? Jose? And not pendejo?
