I'll say this: This just my opinion,
A lot of black folks hold on to the notion that the democratic party or the republican party is going to save us or that we have to vote is because "this is my opinion" a lot of black folks don't know the history of this country and the ends and outs of what has transpire.
Most know level 1, the shit that was taught in school to us. Most don't know anything about the Freemans Burea Bank, most black folks don't know the history behind that, most don't know the history on how every other race was paid out by the gov't for the things that the US gov't did to them.
Most black folks don't know their own history, most haven't heard Malcolm's X speech in its entirety, the Ballot speech he made
Most black folks don't know why MLK was even killed, or know anything about the sanitation strike that was held in Memphis, TN what caused the strike to even take place and why MLK was even there
It's in my opinion once black folks as a whole understand 25% of our history and this country's history, then the "fear" will not be there any more
To me, the average black person knows about 4-5% of the history of this country and maybe 2-3% of the history of our black race.
I believe knowing your history and the U.S. history outside of what the public school taught us will allow black folks get over this "fear" of just voting and allow us to stop believing in Santa Clause
Some have awakened, and starting to really peep game, they are calling out the plays from both sides and holding these folks accountable. Making them "earn" their vote, but it's still a lot of us that are not equipped yet.
We justify, we make excuses, we ramble, we are not direct, and in my honest opinion you asked these folks about their own history and the history of the U.S. they couldn't pass the test.
Once you truly understand how this country has treated black folks since it's been existing, truly understand what this country done, about 30% of the information, then the mind will shift, and the fear will start to dissipate.
Like dayum both parties turn a blind eye while yall let this shit go on to my people, but now yall need me and still won't give me shit that I need to have to survive in this world? from the rules you've set? Come on now, let me make you fuckers earn my vote and let me get what the fuck I need, since everybody else gets what they need and they don't' even vote in high numbers like my ppl who you have abused for 400 plus year does.
It's like you seeing/reading how your sister or brother has been beaten by a spouse or s/o and now that spouse wants to play all in your face, looking for your support, etc like nah man, you foul. You raped, beat, hung my sister and brother and your homies and even your enemies stood by and watched.
You go need to meet every demand on my list for me even to consider helping you and the fact that you been beating my sis or brother for 400 years? Nah fal
You go need to produce something that's gonna benefit me and her or him
