Harris unveils agenda to help Black men 'get ahead' as polls show Trump gains
Proposal by Vice President Harris aims to provide Black males 'the tools' to 'get ahead' financially
 By Paul Steinhauser , Pat Ward Fox News

Vice President Harris is rolling out a new agenda that aims to boost financial and career prospects for Black men.

The release of the Harris campaign's "Opportunity Agenda for Black Men" on Monday comes just four days after former President Obama, in comments that went viral, admonished Black male voters for a lack of enthusiasm in support of Harris. Obama's comments came as polls indicate former President Trump is making gains with Black men, who are traditionally some of the Democratic Party's most reliable supporters.

The Harris campaign, with just over three weeks to go until Election Day, hopes to spotlight its agenda to help Black men achieve "the opportunity to get ahead, to thrive" by equipping them "with the tools to achieve financial freedom, lower costs to better provide for themselves and their families, and protect their rights."

The proposals include providing 1 million loans that are fully forgivable to Black entrepreneurs and others to start a business, championing education, training and mentorship programs that help Black men get good-paying jobs in high-demand industries and lead their communities, including pathways to become teachers.

Also highlighted by the campaign is a regulatory framework to protect Black men's investments in cryptocurrency and other digital assets, a health equity initiative focused on Black men that addresses sickle cell disease, diabetes, mental health, prostate cancer and other health challenges that disproportionately impact them, and the creation of opportunities for Black Americans in the recreational marijuana industry.

  • I was a "conspiracy theorist". Now I'm just right.
Right, guys. You believe this?

She's been up front for alphabet people, for wimmen, especially of color, but y'all have been right here in the back of her bus with the white folks, if they are even allowed to ride.

Now, suddenly, she has had some sort of epiphany and is going to fix all your problems?

Like she fixed the border, importing all those millions of military age men from all over to take your jobs.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

It's a form of charity. But she already gave at the office.  :whistle:
"The most terrifying force of death, comes from the hands of Men who wanted to be left Alone. They try, so very hard, to mind their own business and provide for themselves and those they love. They resist every impulse to fight back, knowing the forced and permanent change of life that will come from it. They know, that the moment they fight back, their lives as they have lived them, are over. -Alexander Solzhenitsyn

Well, there's a hierarchy. It's partly determined by how many different colors your hair is, how badly you dress for your body type, skin tone measured on the Munsell soil color chart, with the lightest at the bottom, unless bumped up by the spectrum of hair colors and amount of the alphabet used to describe things we really didn't want to know, anyway.

Basically, the 'straight'er and whiter and more into Jesus you are, the lower you are on the list. Straight. conservative, average income or below, black, and male? Fugeddaboutit, bro. Might as well pull up a stump and grab a cold one.

  • The problem with everything is they try and make it better without realizing the old way is fine.

Blow jobs for all.
You don’t become cooler with age but you do care progressively less about being cool, which is the only true way to actually be cool.
