In this episode of the "Black Lives Don't Matter" podcast, we examine the struggles of the Democratic Party and question whether Black Americans should continue their long-standing support for it. With 83% of Black voters historically aligning with the Democrats, how did this loyalty form? How did it ultimately fail us?
Trace our political journey from being Republicans during Lincoln's era to shifting towards the Democratic Party during the New Deal and the civil rights movement. Despite our unwavering support, we highlight the lack of tangible benefits we've received over the years, including economic stagnation, mass incarceration, and gentrification.
Emphasize that Black lives don't truly matter in the eyes of those in power, as evidenced by systemic racism, police violence, and the ongoing struggle for basic rights and recognition. Let's call for reevaluating our political alliances and stress the need for real change, action, and empowerment within our communities. Ultimately, if Black lives truly mattered, we wouldn't need to protest for recognition of our worth, we wouldn't need a movement.

Black Americans have given Donald Trump their unprecedented support in this election. Black Americans played a crucial role in Trump's victory over Kamala Harris. WHY? Why would you vote against your interest? If Black Lives Don't Matter to Black People How can they ever matter to anyone?

In this powerful and urgent episode, we explore the imperative of Black voter participation in America. From the blood-soaked streets of Selma to the modern-day challenges at polling stations, Black Americans have faced systematic barriers to exercising their fundamental right to vote.
The journey from disenfranchisement to democracy has been long and arduous. After Reconstruction, Southern states implemented restrictive laws specifically designed to prevent African Americans from voting. Despite these obstacles, brave civil rights leaders fought and sometimes died to secure this essential right.
The 2024 election stands at a crucial crossroads, with Black voters positioned to play a pivotal role in determining America's future. This isn't just another election – it's a moment that demands the same courage and conviction that powered the civil rights movement.
This week, we're not just discussing history – we're making it. The ballot remains our most powerful tool for nonviolent change in a democratic society. Despite ongoing attempts to restrict access and marginalize Black voices, we have the power to shape our destiny through civic engagement.
Join us for an unflinching conversation about responsibility, legacy, and the undeniable power of the Black vote. It's not just about exercising a right – it's about honoring those who fought for it and securing it for those who will come after us.
This isn't just another episode. This isn't just another election. This is our moment.
This week, we vote.

Texas Governor Greg Abbott's decision to pardon Daniel Perry, who was convicted of murdering Black Lives Matter protester Garrett Foster in 2020, has sparked widespread outrage.
The pardon has drawn sharp criticism from Foster's family and the Travis County District Attorney. Foster's common-law wife, Whitney Mitchell, condemned Abbott's decision, stating that it "desecrated the life of a murdered Texan and U.S. Air Force veteran" and sent a message that those with differing political views can be killed with impunity. Travis County District Attorney José Garza accused Abbott and the parole board of "putting their politics over justice and making a mockery of our legal system."
Headlines read "Horrible" and "Beyond F'd Up." The decision has reignited debates over the state's controversial "stand your ground" law and the politicization of the criminal justice system.
