If you've ever driven in the rural sections of this country, AM radio is the only thing you can listen to. And the 3 stations you can listen to are 1) Christian radio 2) Spanish-language/Tejano music (in Texas), and 3) Country music. That's all, that's it! It's surprisingly scary how few diverse opinions there are for people to listen to. But, then, it all makes sense when you realize that's the situation that many in Rural America are in. It's ignorance by design.
If you watch a bunch of government officials fear for their lives and you reflexively identify with the state, you are the definition of an authoritarian and a fascist.
Amen!! I’m so sick of democrats being in their feelings about Biden. It reminds me of the religious people choosing the criminal Barabas over Jesus! I’m very modest in how I carry myself, being a Christian since I was 8 years old, and we are supposed to bear fruit. I see that in Biden. Vote 💙
Thank you Professor Karen! You always bring us excellent discussions, information, and a call to act! Thank you for introducing this Brotha to your listeners! VOTE BLUE America! We love you my Sista!!❤❤
In NYC, as I was growing up, back in the 60’s, my parents watched ABC news with anchors Bill Beutel and Roger Grimsby. And to this day I am still an ABC news watcher. Y’all remember BB and RG, I’m sure!
It's not Biden's AGE that should be disqualifying, but his AGING. Rep. Maxine Waters is older than Biden, but she's aging far more slowly than he is. The question we're not facing is: Why is Biden seemingly the best we can do? That he's the presumptive nominee at this point, in spite of all his negatives, is simply nuts. As the saying goes: We got the politicians we deserve.
I don't think I could ever stand in a room and listen to Trump speak for 2 hours. Listening to him would be like being in a room full of strong vinegar. My eyes would be watering after a while, and I'd have to get out.
Back then, if a News Anchor was going to sit up there and tell you what 'they think' their was a banner on the screen that read: EDITORIAL. Then along came a Foxx. (Another cult-like leader has a history of talking the audience past exhaustion.) The movie, "Django" has a scene about the hooded men that still has me crying laughing when I watch it. Whew!
Make sure everyone you know is registered to vote, has their identification updated and ready, and understands who’s who on Election Day. Don’t forget to take snacks and water with you. Be prepared for any foolishness thrown your way. #VoteBlueItMattersWho
communication for us (people of color) is much more difficult today. We do not have the same experiences as a people. At one time our voice was much more coordinated as a majority of our living conditions were a shared experience. recent prosperity for a good number of us has caused us to move on from previous conversations. I am in no way making excuses. A majority of the people who have achieved success have pretty much moved on. It is a sad commentary on us as a people but in my estimation this is where we are. Look at the number of people of color who are now voices for the right wing. All of them are ignorant to history and only concerned about their own best interests. From the Supreme court to the Barber shops and hair salons our voices and conversations have been co-opted and infiltrated by disciples of mis information and self hate not to mention that a good number of us have pulled that ladder of success up behind themselves.
I’ve started reading Project 2025 and right away the Heritage Foundation who is responsible for this work, discussed how all of their policies were implemented by the Reagan administration. We are still suffering under the ramifications of those policies today. I wish people were more educated on this stuff. I acknowledge it’s a lot.
What I see happening is the folks who wants to push the country back to the 50s and 60s are ORGANIZED and are WORKING TOGETHER as a TEAM. But the folks who want to progress and bring the country forward are working in SILOS(The verb definition)and are FRAGMENTED and are in their little corners working by THEMSELVES. They are not ORGANIZED and working as a TEAM. A wise, wise man said that INDIVIDUALS DON'T BEAT INSTITUTIONS.. So if the people for hate is ORGANIZED then the people for love MUST MUST BE ORGANIZED.
Trump is a demagogue. Prof Hunter, since you are a fan of anime, on Foolishness Fridays you should point out the similarities between Trump and the Dragonball Z character Mr. Satan. It's crazy how similar Trump is to Mr. Satan, even down to how they speak.
Thank you! Stop wetting the bed and shut down the circular firing squad. Biden had an off night. Get over it. Would you rather have a president who had a bad night or one that has a major personality disorder?!? The ONLY thing I can admire about the Republican Party is they don’t wash the skid mark underwear in public! Stop throwing Biden under the bus! Riding with Biden!
