The Tobacco Industry’s Sneaky Infiltration of Black Communities
Unfortunately the tobacco industry has done a great job in infiltrating black communities.
Big tobacco would advertise with Ebony/Jet and use ads of black images to portray a certain type of black culture that they wanted to sell to the public.

So rolling a blunt with dope has nothing to do with it
Everything is against our people using our own resources to kill us
The greatest trick the Devil ever played was showing that he didn't exist. Look at the communities black areas on the bulletin boards cigarettes liquor beer and are on people helped them do it 😢
Yes indeed. The tabacco industry needs to banned from black communities.
Y'all act like white people don't smoke tooo!!! Omg
If I see another iggah smoke a Newport soft pack after 3 blunts Lawd we losing … sigh
Like smoking was cool
Tobacco targets every race it doesn't matter what the color of your skin is they just want your money. Does everything really have to be about race?? Y'all need Jesus.
The same has happening today with Marijuana and Alcohol. They have normalized getting high and drunk.
Tcompany don’t do a shit to black people
Tobacco companies don’t do a shit to black people , black people must know to leave DRUGS alone
I beg to differ with you and did not take a lunch years ago, where you’re talking about black community did not participate in all the smoking, but if it wasn’t for the NAACP, which is owned by Joe’s urban league, which is another Jewish organization, Julian bond the black caucus early stage instead of looking out for their community participated willingly to get kickbacks for putting the cigarette ads in the community as they do today they get kickbacks they run interference for these fake storefront organizations and get paid quite a bit of money running interference for the white supremacy companies at that time it was cool‘s cigarette This is why nothing is done, and we have not moved forward because of these selfish greedy backstabbing organizations we can put Jesse Jackson in there along with Al Sharpton. They run interference instead of promoting your community and pushing for jobs and better life believe good for the community they negotiate for themselves to get paychecks they keep quiet
Stop lying around at that time stop your lying. That’s how you move to rule in Martin we had our own hospitals we had our arm which ran very successful.
We didn’t need poisonous cigarettes in our community. What do you say in rolling equal opportunity to poison the black community Know what you’re talking about. No other community would except cigarette commercials specially, poison ones these people have been out for themselves, including you. You get a kick back on how much people receive an ally and disrespect to get a paycheck from the Democratic Party. Do you not know when I have done nothing for the community, you were there too you run interference for the democratic party that offer nothing to the black community so don’t tell us about allowing poison to be in your community and that’s like an opportunity. If not, we don’t need it and didn’t need it so you need to go somewhere and sit your fat self down.
So who told the people to smoke? Y'all act like they put a gun to people's heads and said "Now Smoke this…". One day black people will stop blaming others for everything wrong in our community.
Most tobacco commercials I've seen were white cowboys
I will eat this lady❤
What is THE WOMAN'S NAME ?
So so glad I haven't and don't listen to the tobacco industry!
Spend a billion make 10 billion the amount of money exiting black communities is mind blowing 🤯
Nobody forces you to smoke or drink hell even eat that trash azz food 😂 Our people are habitual victims without any accounts. Bwoyyy only in Western states you can get away with blaming others for your free choice to consume cigarettes, liquor and extremely processed foods. But I'm a true believer of free will if you want to indulge in these things it's at your own free will and you suffer the consequences. Too many laws do not make you free ask those who lived under the Soviet Unions rule.
