Democrats are on record saying they will have blacks vote democrat for 200 years
No one has ever given a single example of an explicitly racist pitch by Nixon during his long career.
Also it was the republicans that wanted slavery to be abolished
Voting generally is a waste of time but I get why other black people vote democratic
@ℕ𝕍 It’s pretty well-recorded
The first black gongressman was republican. First femal congressman was republican and so on.
As a thing they actively engaged in throughout the 70s-90s
Republicans actually take the initiative in history to do what is right for the society.
Blacks are still on the democrat plantation which is sad.
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Southern_strategy @ℕ𝕍 Like you can dig into the historical narrative and how it formed
LMAO
As if republicans are any better
LMFAO LETS GENERALIZE
Nixon had a great record on civil rights. He supported the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and the Voting Rights Act of 1965. He was an avid supporter of the desegregation of public schools.
When people like Malcolm X , Khalid Muhammad, and even Lois Farrakhan created those narratives around the idea of a liberal plantation it has never been to encourage voting republican
It’s been to encourage anti-electoralism and a rejection of bourgeois democratic processes in the American state
He also put into affect America's first affirmative action program.
Nixon barely even campaigned in the Deep South
He lost it to a Democrat segragationist
He also initiated the War on Drugs as a method of discretely targeting blacks and Chicanos in the US, and created the framework for our current legal system regarding enforcement of drug possession which disproportionately targets and punished black defendants @ℕ𝕍
Nixon was far from a pro-black candidate and he definitely wasn’t a pro-black president in terms of his policy
@!GoldenKingship! *Whoah! Abraham Lincoln, someone who openly disparaged African Americans and probably planned to have us all sent to Liberia following the civil war, Frederick Douglas, the man responsible for narratives of pulling ourselves by our bootstraps to combat racism, and Martin Luther King, a man who would have black people beaten to try to gain dignity all were Republicans!*
I better caucas for the GOP
I disagree with the War on Drugs, but Nixon didn't initiate it with the goal of negatively affecting black people.
He literally did.
He’s recorded talking about it
Can I have a source please?
We are not all equally the same, We are different and that is special about us.
Bruh
What are we talking about here
probably eugenics, it looks like
“We knew we couldn’t make it illegal to be either against the war or black, but by getting the public to associate the hippies with marijuana and blacks with heroin, and then criminalising both heavily, we could disrupt those communities.
“We could arrest their leaders, raid their homes… and vilify them night after night on the evening news. Did we know we were lying about the drugs? Of course we did.”
-John Ehrlichman, Advisor to Nixon and Assitant to the President of Domestic Affairs during the initial War on Drugs
@ℕ𝕍
It was part of the wider CoIntelPro conspiracy against black liberationist and black leftist principally
How does any of what you just said have any relevance today?
We aren’t talking about today, we’re talking about the fact that Nixon’s reasoning for initiating a war on drugs was in-part to suppress Black people
There is currently an Anti White bias being promoted in this world and blacks are just laughing it off because they get affirmative action.
Lmao
Affirmative Action corrects 200 years of slavery, and 400 years of second class citizenship
No it does not, what happens in the past stays in the past.
