      They are routinely attacked on social media if they do. However, a few I know will be reading this and they can decide if they want to step up. Everyone should be free to voice their opinions and preferences (in my opinion).

          It’s an ostecization mechanism Sharyl. It’s a way of saying we’re not really black because we support our president. You know, like when the #msm pretty much dwindled #US down to zero percent 🤦🏾‍♂️

          I actually agree w/U there. Both hv failed #America in general. YET I will say this, Dems are worth less of a damn. For over half a century they’ve ridden the backs of blacks w/bs & unfulfilled promises, Trump steps in, doing better, yet they mad. TF for? Insanity = repetition.

          Yes...MUCH better than Obama ever did my dude 😎👊🏿 His approval rating is reflecting it too unlike the approval we as a people have shamelessly kept sacrificially offering Dems to what? Repeatedly fail us. Again, we can’t keep doing same thing expecting diff results 😎🇺🇸👊🏿

          That's quite the racist comment! Do you really think the #WalkAway movement is only for Blacks? Obviously you haven't visited the Facebook page nor have you been paying attention to this movement on Twitter. Perhaps you should do some homework before spouting untruths!

          You said you were “pretty much raised black” & preceded to say from the hood, teen mom, poverty. None of those equate to being “raised black” I am black - I wasn’t raised like that at all. Maybe you should try to stop using stereotypes to prove a point. It’s also “you’re”

          I’m a proud Mexican-American and speak fluent Spanish and practice my culture. However, I can definitely relate to the black community. I taught at an urban school for nearly 15yrs and remained living in the hood. My students were also my neighbors.
