You absolutely can change anybody’s mind on political view. I’ve done it, and so have politicians, talk show hosts, newscasters, and anybody with enough reach. What you’re doing is avoiding responsibility and setting the black community back 40 years, while blaming and pushing away any ally that won’t kiss your feet. Grow up. L
Literally freedom of anything, like you never have to worry about being pulled over because you are black, you never have to be followed around a store because you are black, you never have been denied in certain restaurant in other countries because you are black you would never understand the struggle it is to be black
Literally look at any sociological study, my degree is in sociology and we learn so much about how policing worked and how black people are more likely to be incarcerated and falsely put in jail, black people are more likely to be passed up on job opportunities, black people are more likely to be pulled over during the day
I’m aware of the statistics. The height of the “war on drugs” was in the 80s, I’m sure you’re aware. There was a much higher percentage of black people in prison for non-violent crimes. They didn’t have the privilege of saying they don’t have enough funding, or they’re getting pulled over for speeding. It’s amazing how much privilege you have.
Sure living now is better than it was in the 60s, 70s, and 80s and even early 90s but you have to see that times have changed maybe look at what’s happening in 2025? I don’t see target getting rid of white brands? Most of targets black brands have been removed and taken away and ironically it all happened once they said no more DEI
That’s not what you said before. Complaining about not getting sponsorships is NOT the same as complaining about being put in prison for a tame crime. Black people have not only EQUAL opportunity as a white person, but a GREATER opportunity now. What else could you ask for? More money? You and me both, get a job.
I was listing out things that were happening I wasn’t changing my statement my statement still stands but if you think black people still have equal opportunity after everything I’ve listed then I don’t know what to tell you, like I said again many scholarships for black kids were through DEI scholarships many of those have been taken away so those don’t exist for us, many black businesses that were in target were taken out and they stopped their contracts with black businesses
