The reason Ohio generally welcomed them in the first place (btw no idea where the 40,000 number comes from maybe next week it will be 4 million) is because the town was dying. Having people move there instead of NYC or SF and actually work rejuvenated their economy.

This guy thought he was gonna roll up in Gwinnett County public schools this summer and give a seminar about how whiteness is racism. Well just heard he is now cancelled. And the thing is the school system was going to let him, but we’re gonna continue to put pressure on Gwinnett County Georgia public schools until they get their shit together. Thanks to all the people who helped expose his craziness!  I wasn’t the only one that posted but I’m glad it’s being done. BlackHat dad on you tube is great!

Chicago became home to one of America’s most prosperous Black communities. Black Chicagoans built businesses, banks, newspapers, churches, theaters, and institutions that made the city a center of Black economic and cultural life.
Bronzeville (The Black Metropolis): During the early 20th century, Bronzeville became one of the wealthiest and most influential communities in the nation. It was home to Black-owned banks, insurance companies, restaurants, newspapers, doctors, lawyers, and entertainers—earning the nickname “The Black Metropolis.”
State Street & South Side Business Districts: Long before “Black Wall Street” became nationally associated with Tulsa, Chicago’s South Side had thriving Black commercial corridors where wealth circulated within the community and Black entrepreneurship flourished.
The Red Line: The neighborhoods served by today’s CTA Red Line overlap with many of the historic Black communities that grew during the Great Migration. Later, discriminatory redlining policies restricted mortgages and investment in these same neighborhoods, while urban renewal and expressway construction displaced thousands of Black families and businesses. The Red Line didn’t create segregation, but it runs through communities whose history was profoundly shaped by it.

“When African Nations kidnapped and sold Africans” — I stopped reading there
“African sold Africans” is ANOTHER WS narrative used as a KKK recruitment tool.
If Africans sold us, name one African slave ship🤔 What did they sell us for that wasn’t able to be produced IN AFRICA?
One has to ask themselves why are they so desperate for the descendants of slaves in the diaspora to consider themselves as displaced lost Africans?
If we really unpack these conversations about identity we will see the underlying white supremacy, anti-Blackness and tribalism.
When African Nations kidnapped and sold Africans to Europeans and they shipped those Africans to the Americas and the Caribbean they were forced to combine cultures, traditions and customs. They were innovative enough to create a new identity through ethnogenesis after the Europeans and African slave traders disconnected them from the roots.
Let’s call it what it is. This is ethnocide and an attempt to humble the descendants of the enslaved in the diaspora.
The descendants of slaves in the Americas and Caribbean were innovative enough to create and forge vibrant cultures despite the oppression. The descendants of the enslaved in the Caribbean and Americas created the most influential cultures through ethnogenesis. Anyone trying to erase that history is an agent of white supremacy.
I have African ancestry but I am not African.
Sorry I will not let you erase my history to soothe your identity crisis and low racial self-esteem.

What the Supreme Court just did to Haitian families on Temporary Protected Status is disgusting, dangerous, and wrong. This decision opens the door for hardworking people — mothers, fathers, children, church members, business owners, taxpayers, and neighbors right here in Congressional District 20 — to live in fear of being ripped away from the communities they helped build.
And let’s be clear: the people running against me who have already held power should have done something about this a long time ago. We have two sitting members of Congress in this race and a former mayor who is Jamaican, and for years they have watched our Haitian brothers and sisters live on “temporary” status with no real pathway to citizenship. They had the titles. They had the seats. They had the power. But they did not deliver.
Temporary Protected Status was never supposed to be a political football. These families should not have been left in limbo for decades. Congress should have created a real pathway for good, hardworking people to earn citizenship, come out of the shadows, and live without fear.
I am not here to defend criminals, scammers, or gang members. I am here to fight for the good people — the families, workers, seniors, students, and children who make up the heart of this district. When I get to Congress, I will fight to protect our immigrant families, protect Haitian TPS holders, and push for a real pathway to citizenship.
Career politicians had their chance. They failed. That is why I’m running.
