Black Politics Today

In America, we are afforded what is known as a Bill of Rights. We the People of the United States, in order to form a more perfect union, establish justice, insure domestic tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general welfare, and secure the blessings of liberty to ourselves and our posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America. But in 2021, Black Americans don’t seem to have any rights. No Bill of Rights, no Judicial Rights, and certainly no Voting Rights. So, where does that leave us? We'll ask Dr. Wilmer Leon, III host of SiriusXM ..read more

Flashback - Reconstruction and Jim Crow
Black Politics Today
by Kelly Mikel Williams
1y ago
Reconstruction was a time for African-Americans to integrate and participate in the fabric of America. Instead, Jim Crow limited that integration & our access to the ballot box. Today, 28 states have introduced 106 Jim Crow Laws that restrict access to voting, hurting people of color. Pennsylvania headlines our discussion with Rep. Christopher Rabb (D-PA, 200th) who shares his views on the 21st Century Reconstruction, a time when Black America is still fighting for equal rights, civil rights, jobs, housing, education, and voting rights.

Their own homes, businesses, banks, hotels, movie theaters, grocery stores… you name it we claimed it. We didn’t ask anyone for it, we took it, we built ..read more

On Wednesday, January 6, 2021, Donald J. Trump invited and incited a movement to overthrow our federal and state governments as a result of the 2020 Presidential election being certified and accepted by Congress.  His volatile language and lies lead uneducated and ignorant Americans to believe that an insurrection lead by Donald Trump would result in him being re-elected or in this case, mandated as President of the United States. Fortunately, that is not the case and would not happen just because these lowlife insurrectionist thugs wanted it to. However, their attempt to overthrow our fe ..read more
