Let me think on that as Iโm sure j have a few.
I will say Little Rascals tv series. I lived that. Read and saw some of the hidden racist stuff once I got older.
Lyndon B Johnson:
#Quotes โIf you can convince the lowest white man heโs better than the best colored man, he wonโt notice youโre picking his pocket Hell give him somebody to look down on & heโll empty his pockets for you.โ LBJ grew up in the South & understood the politics of racism.
@portiamcgonagal.bsky.social Itโs hard not to imagine: if more white women voted the way Black women voted. ๐คthings I Believe would shift. I recall when stats emerged when H Clinton ran & the percentage of BW vs WW who voted for her ๐ณI wasnโt too shocked but I was like, wow.
07.12.2025 12:55 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0@cutes118.bsky.social someone replied back to my โbut white ppl vote in the majority GOPโ comment, with the โregardless of color narrative.โ ๐ Nope!
we got it call it what it is! Thatโs part of the problem. some white folks NOT wanting to do some soul searching!
LBJ
If you can convince
#quote
@jillyfromthehilly.bsky.social There is usually someone white, so ready to Tweet or skeet whatever itโs called on here, to push back when the mention is, how white folks majority GOP. ๐its as if they want to Ignore what is just stats.
LBJ a racist who got things done, his quote spoke volumes
๐๐๐ฝyes, I love it when white ppl like these two women, call out folks and their nonsense! Just My opinion & everyone has a perspective: more white people Need to Get busy & advocate! Black people have been fighting for justice Forever it seems. let the white folks get busy๐๐ผ๐๐ผ

LBJ Lyndon an Johnson quote: if you can convince the lowest white manโฆ
So theres that!
@ektashahmd.bsky.social ๐๐(wink)
I really enjoy listening to Charles Blow. I also read his book a few years ago and I highly recommend it.
I donโt watch CNN :-( or MSNBC
I will have to do my homework and check to see if C Blow has a podcast or something. I agree with you. He doesnโt allow ppl to lie.
she, H Berry I believe, has a product that she markets (menopause). thus, why she might be a huge advocate but I donโt know for sure.
Iโd like to think surely there have been women advocating before now!
@portiamcgonagal.bsky.social @drcaberry.bsky.social @deardean22.bsky.social Iโm all for celebrities speaking out when they are real advocates & H Berry is one it seems) . Iโm glad shes talking but Iโm wondering. menopause has been here for forever! were there No other celebs/ women ever speaking? ๐ค

05.12.2025 14:15 โ ๐ 0 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0๐this lies on the voters for the most part. Sure, the occupant of the WH is a nasty & racist person, But he didnโt hide who he was & some folks -many ppl mostly white - Still voted for him because of their dedication to the GOP. thatโs the elephant in the room. More white ppl need to Soul Search!๐คท๐พโโ๏ธ

you & I both residing in the state- well we know The types*

I hope theyโve learned a lesson, finally!
@intelligently4you.bsky.social Im going to do one Cucheturie (misspelled) board once Iโm back home. I work in a different state than where I reside so whew๐. hectic, but this assignment ends in 2 weeks so I can Relax back at home & prepare all the meals I want.
๐๐ฟ
@intelligently4you.bsky.social ๐
I donโt celebrate Thanksgiving given the #History just me: but I don understand the cooking & family time. that being said, I was so busy unpacking (we bought a cute Villa last month) I didnโt do my cuchuterie board (misspelled). Lol
why do we as Black ppl continue to support certain things? Partly I believe is out of convenience. Target for ex. Iโm on work assignment in Minneapolis for 2 more weeks. A small Target is Right down the street. So while I DO boycott the one in my residence stateโฆ

Sis, I completely understand. I only respond to posts by you and a few others on Twitter. The racists are taking over Twitter. Have a good weekend.
@paulineh11.bsky.social I feel like being on Twitter was giving too much support to Musk & not to mention, the N word use ๐ฃand all of the negativity. While it has been good & Iโve met good ppl - all Of the nasty least for me was not good for my spirit.
To each their own. I just know my limit
