The Quiet Storm of Mobilization in the Black Community

from 2 Men In Black and White: An Honest Conversation · host Mark Hayes and Brock Ganeles

Mark is feeling a dramatic shift in the Black community following the Supreme Court election rules and subsequent gerrymandering in the South. The Head of the NAACP is calling for young black athletes to boycott universities in Southern states. Voter registration efforts are already starting as a countermove to voter suppression by MAGA bureaucrats. But asking young kids to lead is a tough task, especially when established Black performers and athletes are not making similar sacrifices. We revisit the Kevin Hart Roast as an example and discuss Kevin's response, which attempts to downplay the Racism of the event. Mark goes on to talk about the suppression of Black anger, which Brock contrasts with the quickness with which White people move to anger as they feel much more comfortable and protected in society. Finally, the prospect of Trump attending a Knicks championship game at Madison Square Garden was seen as a potential disaster and bad karma for the home team.
