The Bridge Is Over

from The Sound of Black and Brown · host Black and Brown United in Action

From an almost government shut down, to Trump even being considered for speaker of the house while white saviorism gets applauded and Black and Brown movements get whitewashed all due to ‘wokeness’, what is really going on? We called this episode "The Bridge is Over'' for a reason. Right here in Connecticut the most gentrified towns are being represented by white mayors. We cared about taking down the Columbus statues for a few minutes and even knelt, but it’s all still happening and for whatever reason Black and Brown people have lost the zest to recognize or demand true representation. Why are we so quick to sell off our own? How has bipartisanship benefited Black and Brown people, if ever? "Our ten point program is in the midst of being changed right now, because we used the word 'white' when we should have used the word 'capitalist.'"- Fred Hampton, Chicago Black Panthers.   #PoorPeopleFedUp #AmeriKKKa #AntiFacism #AntiConservatism #CivilRights #WhitePrivilege #VoterRights #Civics #CivilRights #BlackVotesMatter #BrownVotesMatter #Reconstruction   Please continue to like and share and check us out here https://linktr.ee/blackbrownunitedinaction your solidarity is greatly appreciated 🫵🏽✊🏽✊🏾✊🏿!   Conservative Politicians, Commentators Recirculate Old Falsehood on Aid for Immigrants https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics/conservative-politicians-commentators-recirculate-old-falsehood-on-aid-for-immigrants/ar-AA1hHUIb?ocid=msedgntp&cvid=ab03a7ebef014f568b7e022ed54d7ca8&ei=10  Letitia James' New Warning to Donald Trump https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics/letitia-james-new-warning-to-donald-trump/ar-AA1hHW8n?ocid=msedgntp&cvid=ab03a7ebef014f568b7e022ed54d7ca8&ei=8
