The Court voted starkly down ideological lines. Today, there are only 3 progressives on the bench. The decades-long effort to shift the Court has succeeded—6 Conservatives vs 3 Progressives.
Now, how do we get the pendulum to swing back?
Noticed that my post about Clarence Thomas was subverted..
Obviously my description of Clarence Thomas was unacceptable..Apologies.
Anyway, the Supreme Court has basically killed off Affirmative Action. Anyone surprised?
I keep telling yall white folks will never truly like or accept or embrace Black interests..
It's always one step forward, three steps backwards..
Our ancestors like Dr Clarke, Dr Ben, Elijah Muhammad & the NOI, Malcolm, Min Farrakhan, Ivan Van Sertima, Booker T. Washington, Marcus Garvey etc., all told us to build for self, educate our own, self-determination is the key etc etc etc..
But we didn't and don't listen!
btw...today's decision on Affirmative Action does not negate the fact that it's white women who benefit the most from Affirmative Action and that advantage will continue.. Yet no surprise that the only white chick on the current court who also benefited from Affirmative Action ruled with the majority against it. Bitch (oops, sorry!)
Now here's the real important thing: Black Excellence will carry us forward. We need to practice a culture of excellence to defeat our white enemies, that's the only way forward.
