Young Pharaoh been suckin the palemans cock lately smh My thoughts on this YouTube community
Ignorance made me turn off the video. Either you want equality or not. This is all black separatist propaganda.
I am an adult, grew up in Canada, and I had no clue that Juneteenth was real, what it was, and I had never heard of it. Disgusting that they didn’t teach me that in school but they taught us about native people. What about the black people?!
Disappointing!
27:48 We shouldn't want white liberals taking the struggle. It's not a black agenda if they take to lead.
This should be added in the History subject in every school.
No one cares.
Happy Juneteenth! I'm sorry for the self promo but on Etsy I have stickers to raise money for bail funds and the NAACP and I would be really happy if you buy it. I WILL provide receipts of the donations because I understand ppl want to know where their money is going. The Etsy is StickieNotesDesign.

We the people
Lift the country up dont tear it down
Native Indians helped the Africans escape from slavery, true story, God bless America
Is there anything for native Americans, like chawtaw or anything that could realize that your not the only ones ,because your black don't mean anything
🙂 👱♂️
Such truths needs to be address in schools
Slavery may be over but genocide still continues in Planned Parenthood.

So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.
28 And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth. KJV — Genesis 1:27 – KJV — Genesis 1:28
The title is misleading! I thought the conversation was about Juneteenth? For like 2 seconds it was lol but then it turned into this LGBT / trans discussion about how some black people identify! I don’t understand this agenda! If you are black then you are part of black history period! Why do I care about your sexuality or how you identify as a person! You are black! And what does it have to do with Juneteenth? I’m thinking it’s going to be this insightful conversation on Juneteenth and it’s history but it was really a discussion on the LGBT community! Next time label your video that! I’m sick of this conversation about trans and LGBT rights! It has nothing to do with black history and our struggles! I respect James Baldwin, Lorraine Hansberry and Audre lorde! Because they didn't make who they love about the collective black struggle! Our collective struggle as black people it has to do with living in a white supremist society! Stay on topic! That’s what were fighting! Nobody cares who you love! I don’t need to be educated on LGBT history because that history doesn’t exist! One of my favorite writers June Jordan identified as bisexual and did I care when I was reading her books no! I hated this conversation it was obvious that they had a LGBT agenda! It made no sense whatsoever! Those artist that you talk about everybody knew and guess what nobody cared because they created great art! They were never sidelined in the black community! Blah blah blah all these labels to and fancy words to describe yourselves is some bs! She, her, they, them, cis, etc… give me a break! This all seems like a inner acceptance that you have to come to terms with yourself stop projecting your lifestyle on others! I don’t care about what you eat or who you date Or love!!! This was such a baseless conversation that makes me feel like my history is being disrespected!
Celebrating is since I was a kid. Block party every Juneteenth here in South Texas filled with Bbq plates, sweet potato pie, and live DJ and basketball tournaments. It go dine!
Thank you for covering this. I was never taught about this holiday in grade school, high school and not even in college.
This black movement is NOT A GAY NOR TRANS MOVEMENT!!!!!
Slavery is an original sin. I'm really growing tired of correcting this. Genocide is the original sin.
But hey, my entire race clearly means nothing to y'all.
Why dosent this say anything about joe biden fighting to keep blacks out of white schools ????
I say make a move blm or shut the Fock up you want get nothing from me and about 15 million more people in a group y’all have no clue about! Now if y’all are smart y’all better chill! None of y’all have guts enough to come Fock with us and by all means do so!
Ngga got 5.7m an ain't got but 12k💀🤣 remember us NELK round here u know we got more
Juneteenth used to be biggest in Texas by far…
Black black black!? Vice news can we talk about all people equally, as people!? without putting a color to them.
The meaning of Juneteenth: an excuse for the natives to get restless, and scream and hoot and holler and carry-on

Hi from west coast usa
Those craigslist scammers? Modern slave owners lol
Im really thank ful for my education but tbh I sometimes wonder as an adult if I was set into an almost too mature state that I didn't want to do idgaf to admit I was way too immature to handle the good enough education I had. I didn't take advantage of fully being educated . "We need to look at ourselves" def my point
Pretty güd I'm deciding my opinions cool
Vice drastically overestimates the interest I have in juneteenth
It was Republicans who freed the slaves, Republicans also passed the 13-16th amendments.
Life would be better for everyone if you wall just left and tended to your pet creation Liberia.
I just came to see the like/dislike ratio.
