It’s official as of today. They’re getting that “nigga wake up call.” No matter how “productive” and “upstanding” they may be. Now they see how easily their lives can be compromised with the stroke of a pen and an overtly hostile white supremacist government in power. We’ve weathered if for 400 years. Welcome to being black in America.
I remember I took a Black British history class and it taught me a lot about how African migrants vs Caribbean migrants thought about politics in the UK. While many of the Caribbean peoples supported the Labor Party a lot of Africans supported the Conservative party. Think Labor Party (Democrat’s) and Conservative obviously (GOP)
The reasoning behind the decisions was African migrants typically were primarily focused on business so that influenced their decisions to vote Conservative party despite conservatives being against African immigration, while Caribbean’s migrants primarily vote with Labor Party who are more socialist with their politics.
It’s the same shit here in the states. Seeing how successful some African migrants are here and abroad in western countries, how do you reconcile it?
