Voting Matters

While scanning Facebook recently, I ran across a post by one of my friends in which he was talking about withholding the #BlackVote until we get our own party.  **Check out the All Matters Black Podcast above.

While I do believe we need our own political party, and with our buying power I know that it is completely doable, I don't feel that withholding our vote will accomplish anything.

In fact, I believe it could set us back even further. Think back to the last presidential (2016) election when many of us did not vote.👀😡 We got an idiot in the White House because many of us withheld or just split the vote, and for the last 4 years he and his posse have tried to undo everything that President Obama and his administration accomplished. Hell I'm guilty, too! I voted for an independent. BIG MISTAKE.  Never again...

The presidential election will be held on November 3, 2020.  Everyone needs to be registered 30 days prior to the election. 

IT IS IMPERATIVE THIS YEAR THAT EVERYONE REGISTERS AND ACTUALLY VOTES.  

We can NOT take another 4 years of the idiocy in the White House.  #VoteOrDie 

Let's Talk About It.

#ACCOUNTABILITY
I believe that we all can agree that EVERYONE that is of sound mind and healthy body should be held accountable for their own actions. So with that being said...

 When will we hold ourselves and each other accountable?

Speaking specifically to MY PEOPLE. The people that I identify with, and the people in which I spend most time and share most cultural traditions and aspects with.  

I am talking about BLACK AMERICAN people. 

So, please do not be offended if you read something you don't like or don't necessarily agree with.  Please don't be in your feelings about any of my opinions either...

I welcome your opinion as well.  Differences in opinion makes for great dialogue and y'all know I like to talk!  Check out the podcast at https://anchor.fm/all-matters-black

Where does the change begin? 

We are all sick of griping and complaining.

ARE WE MAD YET? 

When will we begin to unite and start solving some of these issues.  Most immediately, #PoliceBrutality. 

At the time of this original post, we were fresh off the murder of yet two other black people, Breonna Taylor and George Floyd.  Since then, there has been the murder of Rayshard Brooks-- a black man found sleeping in his car in a drive-thru, and several hangings in which some have tried to say they were suicides.  NOW WE KNOW DAMN WELL NO BLACK PERSON HAS CLIMBED A TREE AND HANGED THEMSELVES.  Lets be very clear about this!

Please be careful and aware. When possible, travel in groups.  I urge each and everyone of US to train ourselves and families to properly maintain, use and legally purchase a firearm. It is our constitutional right to possess weapons to protect ourselves, our families, and our property.  Other's do it.  Why NOT us? 

ARE WE LISTENING? 

Let's talk about our ECONOMIC POWER.  I think that I will do a podcast on this topic really soon.  We need to discuss things like BUILDING, REPAIRING, and MAINTAINING CREDIT.  We need to talk about collaboration and building generational wealth and a whole bunch of other stuff. 

If you would like to participate in the podcast or know someone that would be a great panelist, please drop an email to ALLMattersBlack@gmail.com.
