@etanthomas36 You are uninformed. There's no "ADOS/FBA crowd." ADOS is not affiliated or linked with FBA. ADOS does not use derogatory slang to describe Caribbeans. Educate yourself. Go to the ADOS Foundation website. Then, read the recently-published ADOS Reparations Framework.

How many times have Black Americans been demonized and attacked for speaking critically about any member of the democrat party? I think Andrew Gillum is raising very valid concerns here.

My god, you are slow. This is embarrassing. Did you even read this agenda you claim is so unworkable and unconstitutional? Just admit it. Somebody in the movement hurt your pride at some point. Mad that your infinite wisdom is not being taken seriously by the dummies at ADOSAF 😂
@AmericaOwesADOS Adding to it.

Please understand how overtly racist the it is for the state of #Louisiana to continue to deny & argue their extensive record of racial #gerrymandering against American Descendants of Slavery. Gerrymandering has been practiced against ADOS since we were considered 3/5ths of a
The U.S. 5th Circuit upheld a lower court ruling that found the boundaries in the maps drawn for seats in the #Louisiana Legislature discriminated against Black voters, violating the federal Voting Rights Act. There’s a stay on redrawing the maps until the Supreme Court rules in

Chinese ppl in the Delta were dues paying members to White Supremacists organizations, disowned their mixed family, and argued in front of the Supreme Court that they deserve to be free from Black contamination and ppl still act like they were steadfast allies and we're Feds 🤦🏾♂️
Trying to use the behavior of Asians in California as justification to not being solidarity with Chinese people in Mississippi is peak fed behavior. Fuck you were not taking your bait.

Peter Kirsanow: “Illegal immigration has a decidedly negative impact on Black wage levels and employment levels...Illegal immigrants displace Black workers in areas that had traditionally been populated by Black workers...This was not a small displacement” #BlackJobs
“Does illegal immigration exert downward pressure on the wages and employment opportunities of low-skilled workers, particularly black workers” “Our briefing revealed that there is general consensus among economists that it does”

On this day in 1933, a white mob of at least 2,000 in Princess Anne, MD, burned George Armwood to death. Four white men were ultimately tried for the lynching and acquitted by all-white juries. https://t.co/BRcThVxKzG

Enslaving other human beings is considered a Christian tenet the 🇺🇸 right is prepared to defend. Not turning the other cheek, helping the poor, or loving your neighbor as yourself. It’s not surprising considering the largest 🇺🇸Evangelical sect was founded to defend slavery.
Christian nationalist podcaster Joshua Haymes says Christians must be willing to defend the institution of slavery because the Bible makes it clear that "it is not inherently evil to own another human being." https://t.co/XBMQW7HSen

Geographers are documenting slave-built infrastructure, from railroads to ports, in use today. Such work could influence the reparations debate by showing how slavery still props up the US economy.

@RepRashida The voting rights act was created by BLACK Americans. "Brown" people supported Jim Crow. Mexicans served on white citizens councils helping enforce Jim Crow laws

When it comes to Reparations, It's vital to remember those directly harmed by American chattel slavery and their descendants while also addressing systemic racism affecting all Black people. #reparations #ADOS #VanLathan #AB7 #IsaacBryan #GavinNewsome
