Seriously, where do blacks have it worst? In Democratic Party run cities and areas. Where are they kept downtrodden in crappy government housing, with poor schools, elevated crime, poor economic opportunities, urban blight, and pollution? In Democratic Party run areas. Also, it’s probably not helpful for average voters to see the message of a Marxist organization which wants money from people who were not even alive when slavery was legal, who want to defund the police, and have been rioting and looting, committing mayhem and assaulting people (along with their Progressive minded white Democrat voting Comrades)
Black Lives Matter movement to play elevated role at convention
The message of Black Lives Matter will be woven throughout the 2020 Democratic National Convention, starting with a focus on racial injustice during the first night of programming.
The plan by convention organizers to elevate the Black Lives Matter movement reflects the party’s growing embrace of its calls for action on racial inequality and police brutality over the past four years, particularly since the May 25 police killing of George Floyd.
The lineup of prime-time programming for the convention doesn’t list a time slot for Black Lives Matter activists as of Thursday, but the Democratic National Committee (DNC) indicated there would be a focus on the movement and racial injustice throughout the entirety of the convention.
“The Black Lives Matter movement has given voice to the deep-seated inequality that has plagued our nation since its inception,†DNC Chair Tom Perez said in a statement. “The Democratic Party shares in their commitment to justice and hears their demands for change. When we nominate Joe Biden to be our standard-bearer, we will not miss this moment to ensure those values are reflected in everything we do.â€
Racial injustice will be a key part of the “We the People†programming on Monday, according to the DNC and Biden campaign. Speakers that evening include Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.), House Majority Whip James Clyburn (D-S.C.) and former first lady Michelle Obama.
“[As] things become more mainstream, part of what happens is politicians take it on. I don’t think that we will be devoid of hearing statements about Black Lives Matter,†said Rashawn Ray, a governance studies fellow at The Brookings Institution.
“Rather than getting four or five minutes, or 15 minutes over the course three or four days, it becomes a part of the narrative,†he added.
It’s probably a good thing for the Democrats that there won’t be tens of thousands of people showing up for the convention, protesting and agitating and committing mayhem, spouting Marxist platforms and slogans, raising their fists in black power, making it hard for the Credentialed Media to hide. They want everyone (black) released from jail. That won’t play well. Reparations? Not going to play well. Defund the police? Won’t play well.
(NY Post) The president of Greater New York Black Lives Matter said that if the movement fails to achieve meaningful change during nationwide protests over George Floyd’s killing by Minneapolis police officers, it will “burn down this system.â€
“If this country doesn’t give us what we want, then we will burn down this system and replace it. All right? And I could be speaking figuratively. I could be speaking literally. It’s a matter of interpretation,†Hawk Newsome said during an interview Wednesday evening on “The Story†with Martha MacCallum.
Will that play well? We can all see what’s happening in Democratic Party run cities, with the Democratic Party governors of the states refusing to work to stop the violence. NYC, Minneapolis, Portland, Seattle, and many others are burning. The only one attempting to stop it is Chicago, where the black hyper-Progressive mayor doesn’t care much about blacks shooting blacks, but, will send the police in when the tax base is attacked.
There probably won’t be all that much time to pander to Hispanics, eh?
