State Of Our People: Summer 2023
At the end of June I was able to travel to Atlanta to attend the National Black Radical Organizing Conference. One of the results from the conference is I have been able to hold conversations with other Afrikans around the united snakes to see: where are we, as a People, at right now. We should take a look at the state of our People from time to time and the conference gave me a chance to connect with Afrikans in different regions and get a pulse on our struggles.
On my way to the airport after the conference, I was asked to be a guest on Both Sides Of The Conversation’s Sunday Conversation talk show on the “economic state of Black amerikkka”. It seemed fitting as I was leaving the conference to speak on where Our People are at economically. As I spoke with other Afrikans not as deeply involved in the liberation struggle, I was able to get a fuller picture of where we as a People are at as a whole. as I examine where we are at, my analysis is this: The Black amerikkkans are doing great, but the masses of Afrikans inside this amerikkkan project are poor and suffering simply trying to survive kkkapitalism.
amerikkkan propaganda tells us we can be the next Black billionaire, but If you aren’t stuntin on IG every day in your new G-wagon, walking down the red carpet at the BET awards, going to the Roc Nation brunch or living your Black “freedom” dream; it’s probably…
