The non-profit industrial complex is a nasty thing. It’s props up white “organizers” on the backs of Black & brown member based trauma stories. White organizers are then afforded legitimacy & opportunities to move on to higher paying jobs while the Black unpaid members 🤷🏾♀️

This feels similar to old dems: hey Black ppl who wanted to run, here’s a “seat at the table” & I’ll run your campaign & you will be able to help your community (maybe & sometimes). Once again taking away our agency & autonomy while putting our communities up as collateral.

It’s odd to now call them “Black socialists” when the agenda of DSA has no race analysis or agenda specific to Black ppl & the diaspora.
Chi Ossé's primary challenge of Hakeem Jeffries is the natural next step for DSA after Zohran's victory—and he can win. https://t.co/5cDaBTgqUz

Now that we’ve shifted the political reality, the eyes of the country—even the world—are on us. What will we do with that power? What must we do?

It is going to be interesting to see if Black younger people who aren’t DSA and running for office will have similar viability as a young DSA candidate…

After Nov. I’m looking forward to hearing the discussions about the downfall of Black political power (b4 gaining much material change for Black communities) & the indifference of the progressive left(arguably privileged) who uses the language of the oppressed.

One side of Dems need to accept that their strategies and getting to the table didn’t have the outcomes they hope it would & the other side of Dems need to realize that their actions/proposed actions/inactions have real consequences…

A 10% tariff on most imported goods has taken effect. TPC has estimated that a 10% tariff on goods imported from all countries and a 60% tariff on goods imported from China would reduce after-tax incomes by nearly 2%, or $1,820 for the average family. https://t.co/i2oMoIdH9g

I guess the lesson to learn is that institutions believed to be marginalizing ppl & causing more harm than good can actually be abolished(eliminated 🙃) and defunded (cutting the waste 🙃)…

lol funny seeing people buy TESLA to stick it to Dems and support a billionaire. But yall were insisting that the issue was the messaging didn’t work because it didn’t center the economic struggle of the working class.

The way the changes on the fed level will be passing the buck over to the state - I have 0 confidence in NYS (not just the gov) to be able to fight back & manage what’s to come. It’s not just about having a rep who can do pressers, petitions, letters or get on social media…

Intentions are great but w/o a clear policy & risk assessment this can lead to an influx of people moving into jobs that previously weren’t available to other NYers. NYS unemployment is about 4.4%; a plan to absorb fed workers need to be a specific number & over a period of time

If the goal is isolationism it should go both ways: as the US cuts aid and funds to other countries that should also include what the US “imports” from these countries.

On one had the feds are saying handle your own financing and revenue but in selective situations they’re like nah we will intervene and also provide no funding. Welp NYS legislators you gotta figure it out because this one is on you like many more things to come.
