To me with all the weird moves Trump is making I think his whole play is just to cry foul on election night and try to destroy the democracy again. -

Geezus f-ing kryst!! Saying you are black doesn't mean you have to denounce the other part. What we are trying to tell you is that Kamala Harris clearly acknowledged being black and you can tell that by her rushing the blackest sorority in America and going to the most prestigious black college in these here United States. No one is confused about her also being Indian. In fact, people on this thread don't even fucking care, and we find it extremely WEIRD that you do.

It's like no one remembers all the rags talking about the coming inflation in 2020 long before we knew who the pres was going to be. And who was the guy at the helm in 2020 Donald? -
Imagine how exhausting it is when the world hates you for your skin color and you are just trying to be the best human you can be. Then imagine you fall ill and the governor of your own state and posters on Surly come out with hateful statements. Now imagine some dude on Surly being all up in arms because you aren't the warmest towards people after the way that you have been treated through the years. A simple lack of compassion from you. She was 16 when this happened. Years of this shit but you expect her to be all smiles and hugs?
-
Well Surly, she made it! The kid was offered and she accepted. We now have a D1 volleyball commit. It was a lot of hard work and frustration getting here but the look on her face when the coach offered her over the phone was worth every bit of it. 16 years old and making big life decisions.

Big Dawg, awhile back my daughter had some struggles and we checked her into one of those facilities. The conditions were awful and they treated her like a convict. Needless to say we checked her out after a few days, we wouldn't let her go the full week. After that we got her some help and she is still seeing a therapist today. From what I've seen on the outside looking in get yourself a therapist and stay diligent with sessions.

Attended Howard University. The MOST prestigious Black College in America. Rushed AKA, the oldest and most prestigious Black Sorority in America. Sounds like she has always identified as Black to me. Look, you guys running with this weird narrative are missing wildly. Here is why. Black people, and anyone who understands how racism works in North America know this. Being Black isn't about what YOU think it is. Being Black is a lifelong experience. Tiger Woods ethnic mix only became a topic once he got famous. No one cared that he wasn't allowed in certain clubhouses as a kid. He was just living the same experience that any other Black kid was living at that time period. Kamala Harris has lived the Black Experience. You don't get to take that away from her now. All the racism she has faced. All the obstacles she has had to overcome. The weird racial comments and misogynistic views are only serving to galvanize her base and push independents further away. By all means lets keep the narrative going......

My daughter is Chinese, Black, and White. What should she identify as? Is there a form she needs to fill out? Does she have to participate in this?

Self loathing Blacks. Gotta love em. When I was growing up I remember looking around and the community was so broken. I remember being so angry that we didn't pick ourselves up by the boot straps. Then I did the required reading and starting seeing how there were obstacles intentionally placed at every turn and it all started to make sense to me. I read about the run on black owned anything as soon as the Union soldiers cleared out during reconstruction. I read about Debt Peonage. Jim Crowe. Racial Covenants in property deeds. Redlining. Nixon's War on Drugs. Reagan's War on Drugs. Mass Incarceration. Now when I drive through poor areas I see the highways cutting through. I see the lack of corporate investing. I see how even though they are in the same county, the tax dollars find a way to clean the trash on the side of the road in some neighborhoods over others. What I don't understand is any educated black person who did the required reading, shrugged, and went on to grifting for a check. How can you hop in front of a camera and embarrass your entire family and heritage like that? Even if you actually believed the things you said, you know damn well why you are being propped up. It's okay to believe but don't let people use you against your own people to say the things they can't say about your community. It doesn't bother them to log onto twitter and see a snippet of you saying something posted by some hillbilly saying, " see...he is one of the good ones". -
The fuck are you going on about? I was agreeing with you jackass. I was saying that what you went through cannot be explained unless you've experienced it, and yes, there are people out there that get this treatment on the regular. That is not to say that anything to lessen your experience, it's just pointing out hard fact. You went full Derka for no damn reason at all and everyone knows you never go full Derka. Also, you throw a full 3 year old tantrum on a message board on someone you don't know and you have the nerve to call ME emotionally stunted? Fuck outta here.

Hard to argue with this take.

This right here is the problem. No one believes how brutal cops are until they turn on you. I was the recipient of the boot many times when I was younger and it quite frankly makes you the kind of anger that tears are streaming out of your eyes. Being violated like that. Until you experience it you just can't put it in words. You felt it one time. Imagine this being the reg in your youth.

" Excuse me would you come with me. President Trump wants you to sit closer to the stage". Those facial expressions are of people who realized they've just been used. Look at how none of them are happy or smiling. They can't wait to get out of there. It's like the time I got sent to the Black Executives of America conference in DC. Lol. I felt the same way. Dirty. -

Yeah...........This isn't having the effect they think it is. They are pissing off the wrong demographic considering who he is running against. DEI hire? Ditch the hoodrat act? Isn't Black? the GOP is really really out of touch with the Black community. When it was those two old white guys the apathy ran rampant in the Black community. After all the repubs are always bad for us and the other dude wrote the 94 crime bill. We have been promised a lot by one side only for them to sit on their hands once they are in office. The other side has been taking a sledgehammer to the Black community since the 60's. Black people have lost faith in the system all together. However, now you are talking about a chance to put the first Black Woman in as POTUS? All the GOP is doing is pouring gasoline on the fire. -

They found the 20 Black people across the country willing to vote for that clown. Brothahorn is on the right. -
Trump and MAGA saying Harris is not Black. Black people are like........ She went to one of the Blackest schools in the US and is an AKA, the oldest Black sorority in the country. https://wjla.com/news/local/members-of-alpha-kappa-alpha-celebrate-as-senator-kamala-harris-makes-history

I've been seeing these "If you think Kamala Harris is African American you must be stupid" posts. I have something to say to those people. That meme will never work. You can't take away someone's black experience by regurgitating where her parents are from. One thing black people understand is where her parents are from never stopped her from getting called black racial slurs growing up. Nor did it stop them from calling her a DEI hire, or questioning her intellect. As long as she has had to go through the same experiences all the other black people in this country went through we are going to see her as one of our own. All memes like that serve to do is show how much middle aged white men are disconnected with the black community and what it means to be black. My daughter is Chinese, White, and Black. Her eyes are more Asian, and her features are more White. However at her school she gets called the N word all the time and has had to deal with all the same racism I did. If she ever ran for office those same Trumpers would say she isn't black.

I forgot about Fields. We played against Cugino. In my opinion she is alright, but she plays for Mintonette so you know how that goes. The problem is defensive players all look the same. So you really have to sit down and watch them play. From the inside what we've realized is that these recruiters are lazy and disorganized. For example, my daughter is being recruited by a school on the West Coast. The assistant in charge of recruiting calls and sets up a zoom call. Then the coach calls to set up a call not knowing the assistant already set up the zoom call. At that point my daughter is looking at them sideways. Liberos and DS are usually the last to get recruited. So Texas grabbing a libero in the 26 cycle a month after June 15th seems like old Elliott when he was lazy with his defensive recruits. I don't remember anything special when we played them. We lost(they are a good team) but my kid was putting balls down like she normally does. Now we've been playing Anderson for years, and you remember when you play against her. Skilled kid for her size for sure.
