  1. I am and always will be a never trump voter. I'm a 73 year old white woman . I plan to protest against Trump and his unconstitutional regime this Saturday . I understand why you won't . I personally don't feel like it would be safe, but know we are in this fight for all of us. Stay safe and fight back in your own way. Trump is a rasist with no empathy for any of us. I fight for my country, my children, my grandchildren, my fellow Americans. Stay strong and stay safe.

  2. Guy at 7:58 is a prime example of being a Trump supporter vs MAGA. That man is a Trump support. As Americans we are allowed to support whomever we choose. He wasnt rude and was open to hearing another's pov. There was nothing about his demeanor that screamed uneducated cultists.

  3. I have to say it. Black folks don't care about anybody else's rights. Hitler himself could rise from the dead and take over the country. If he didn't mention us specifically we'd be fine with that.

  4. Sit down , you didn't vote for this chucklehead so stay home, the majority of them voted for him , so I understand why you did what you did, I salute you and sit with you. Bro Rican.

  5. It’s like this like folk look around and say it’s a white problem but then deal with it. But some folks voted for Trump because they are comfortable of the “other”fill in the blank.

  6. In regards to NAACP AND URBAN LEAGUE, yes please show your work!💙💯🙏🏽 I’ve been a life member since the 90’s, never hear from them unless it’s for more money. When they had the big convention in Milwaukee, I found out about that through mainstream media. Not one single invite. Sad. I’m from Milwaukee.😢

  7. Black people aren’t at the protests because these aren’t organic protests. These are paid actors and black people aren’t on the payroll. We don’t get the same direct incentives.

  8. Answer: Protests are only symbolic. Also, many black people agree with a lot of things the current president is doing. The black highly educated, progressive class is totally out of touch with every day black people.

  9. Because we’re TIRED of being everybody else’s fuckin mule. Then stay gettin disrespected and discarded once the spoils are distributed on behalf of OUR sacrifices. Every..single…time.FOH. 👎🏽

    We’ve always done OUR part. Let these others do theirs. 😒

  10. Because it’s time for white people to take responsibility for all of the murderers racism and cruelty that this country has endured for hundreds of years Trump literally told them what his intentions were and now they claim that’s not what they voted for BS your just as sick as he is you Midas well wear
    M for murders on your forehead whether you knew or not you supported him non the less you’ll pay for it all in the long run!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  11. Ida B. Wells started naacp when she realized it wasn't supporting struggling hard working FBAs she left the organization and she was right. I see Karen is backed by whyte corporate sponsors and DNC. Which is pushing the same policies of the biden administration. Here you have a senator that went to another country trying to get the release of ms-13 gang member who has a record of domestic violence he enter this country illegally and y'all blk politicians say nothing about it. Not once did I hear say anything about reparations or anti- hate crime bill for FBAs. And y'all think we haven't notice that same shyt different day kick rocks karen and dmc.

  12. Im not a republican and i will never vote for demo-rats ever again but i like to ask this questions to my blk brothers and sisters what policies have trump pass that hurt or harm blk ppl.

  16. The polls has never returned the kind of results we received from protesting. When we protest we are talking about our problems, discrimination, we added it even if the protest was aimed at something else. We take the opportunity to add discrimination where ever we can add it. Be Sensible, we have never won anything by sitting quiet. We hit the streets, we let the government know why we are in the streets. You cannot follow everybody. Never follow anyone telling you not to protest. We have so much to protest for.

  17. I think they believe that protesting will help them like it helped us. But that was the 20th century . It's the 21st century now. New things need to be done. There's a new world out here, and we have to do things differently. This man is trying to send people the El Salvador prison, and he his going to pay the president of that country to take American people. We really need to dot our Is and cross our Ts.

  18. Live-streaming and the unfortunate few! Our nation abuses its consumers to a flaw! All of these online outlets prosper including this one? How did this start! HD! Then it marketed propaganda promising much and doing little! So big ads leads people astray and trap consumers! Do you care! Consensus and surveys imply No! You can’t! Somebody gotta be Peter, and someone else Paul! Hello, Peter! Pumpkin greeters! Not ta day! MAGA! 😂😂😂😂fluff and puff! Kleenex,

  19. I think by in large american Africans are not participating because collectively we are combination of tired and zombies. Going through the motions just to get to Friday at this point……….we've done all the marching hooting and hollering but yet here we are basically in the same spot we started

  20. Black 👏 people 👏 showed 👏 up.

    Nearly 9 in 10 Black voters backed Biden-Harris. They already protested—at the polls. And they’re always expected to save democracy alone.

    Why is it the Black community responsibility have to fix what they didn’t break?

    (Not Black—just a tired, queer Chinese American who listens, learns, and is deeply thankful. So many of the rights I have today exist because Black communities fought first.)

  21. I am beyond TIRED of black people telling me I need to protest! I respect what our ancestors endured for our freedom but the fact that people think protesting is the only effective way shows me they have the same mindset as the democrats we complain about! Nothing new the same ole thing! When did it become a crime to not want to put ourselves in the line of fire!!?!! How about going to some of these black churches who voted for this because some of them did! How about asking them why didn’t they care about the best interest of their congregation who are trying to make ends meet! We need another way!

  22. Absolutely, where are the NAACP, Urban League and other civil rights organizations? I'm sure they're seeing what we're seeing, so they know what's going, but seem absent in this fight
