Despite Donald Trump’s 2024 campaign promises to improve the economy for Black Americans, key indicators have worsened since his return to office: Black unemployment has risen from 6.2% to 7.5% (the highest since 2021), and Black homeownership and median household income have both dropped. The racial wealth gap is widening, with median Black household income now $36,000 less than that of white households. Experts warn this trend poses both political risk for Trump and signals broader economic trouble ahead, as job losses among Black Americans often precede wider layoffs. What could turn this around?

"The poet or the revolutionary is there to articulate the necessity, but until the people themselves apprehend it, nothing can happen... Perhaps it can't be done without the poet, but it certainly can't be done without the people. The poet and the people get on generally very badly, and yet they need each other. The poet knows it sooner than the people do. The people usually know it after the poet is dead: but that's all right. The point is to get your work done, and your work is to
change the world."

Good luck on those recruitment quotas…

Black officers will be targeted 1st.

You can certainly ask for (not demand) #BlackAmericans to support your causes. But let me be clear: Given American #history, we OWE you nothing. We're NOT in debt to u. We're NOT your sword and shield. We're not your battering ram. We're not your horses, mules or oxen. We're also NOT obligated to support the mass importation of illegal labor for the ruling class.🤷🏿‍♀️ #immigration #migrants #LosAngeles #protest

“Service provided a twofold bargain for the country & the individual.

“But #military service is a profound sacrifice. And when that sacrifice is met with hostility, erasure or contempt from political leaders at the highest levels, we must pause & reassess.

“Is it still worth it?
 “Right now, as I watch what is happening, my answer is, sadly, no.”

#BlackAmericans #Trump #Hegseth #USpol #hate #discrimination #bigotry #racism #WhiteSupremacy

“Service to your country for many #BlackAmericans is also seen as an entrée into #Middleclass. Whether you only served one enlistment or made it a career, having #military service on one’s résumé or job application was seen as a plus for African Americans whose work ethic & experience were always seemingly in question. The military also provided training & job experience that—especially in the 1950s, ’60s & ’70s—Black Americans were not able to easily obtain in the civilian world.
#Trump #racism

“Why should they risk their lives for a nation unwilling to defend them against #racism—or even acknowledge their service in its own historical record?

“My experience is that #BlackAmericans who serve are built different. We don’t scare easily. We lead from the front. We serve because we believe in something larger than ourselves. Many of us would — & have — give our lives for this country.

#Trump #military #USpol #hate #bigotry #discrimination #WhiteSupremacy

“#DEI initiatives were designed to complement—not replace—meritocracy. They aim to ensure that all #ServiceMembers are evaluated fairly & have equal access to opportunities, thereby strengthening the #military as a whole.
 “So I ask again: Why should young #BlackAmericans serve under a govt & military leadership that doesn’t respect their presence, their contributions or their history?

#Trump #military #USpol #hate #discrimination #bigotry #racism #WhiteSupremacy

“The #Pentagon has erased countless #photos, #videos & articles about these units from its websites — although quickly restoring some, like the #TuskegeeAirmen, in response to an outcry.

“This isn’t a side issue — it’s a direct assault on #truth & #legacy. It’s a denial of the sacrifices of generations of #BlackAmericans who fought & died for a country that did not always return the favor.

#Trump #military #USpol #hate #discrimination #bigotry #racism #WhiteSupremacy

“But as I look at today’s political environment — at President Donald #Trump, his allies & #Defense Secy #PeteHegseth — I’m forced to ask a question I never thought I’d have to pose: Should young #BlackAmericans serve in a #military led by people who seem openly hostile to them & the legacy of those who came before them?”

Surrender, White People! by D. L. Hughley, 2020

The legendary activist/comedian and author of the "hilarious yet soul-shaking" (Black Enterprise) bestseller How Not to Get Shot returns to address a nation on the edge of civil war.
After centuries of oppressing others, white people are in for a surprise: You're about to be a minority yourself. Yes, the face of America is getting a lot browner—and a reckoning is coming. Black and brown folk are not going to take a back seat anymore. It's time to surrender your unjust privileges and sue for peace while the getting's still good. Lucky for America, D.L. Hughley has a plan.

#RESIST! #NAACP Sues #DepartmentOfEducation Over #DEI Rollbacks: Here's What To Know

The nation's oldest #CivilRights group says the Trump administration’s rollback of diversity and inclusion programs is unconstitutional and disproportionately harms #BlackStudents.

April 19, 2025

"The NAACP is suing the U.S. Department of Education over recent efforts to eliminate diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) programs in schools. In a federal complaint filed in Washington, D.C., the organization alleges that the Department of Education’s recent directives are unconstitutional and discriminatory—particularly for Black students.

"The complaint faults the administration for targeting programs that offer '#truthful, #inclusive curricula,' as well as policies that expand access to selective educational opportunities for #BlackAmericans and foster belonging while addressing #racism in schools.

"The NAACP argues that the Department’s recent actions 'advance a misinterpretation' of federal civil rights laws and Supreme Court precedent—actions that, according to the group, violate its members’ rights to equal protection and to be free from viewpoint discrimination under the #USConstitution.

"NAACP President Derrick Johnson criticized the move, stating that the administration is 'effectively sanctioning' the very discrimination that U.S. civil rights laws were designed to prevent

" 'The Department of Education, tasked with a responsibility to protect the civil rights of all children, has instead claimed #SystemicRacism doesn’t exist — effectively sanctioning the very discrimination that our civil rights laws were designed to prevent while children of color consistently attend #segregated, chronically underfunded schools where they receive less educational opportunities and more discipline,' said Johnson."
