TFW you include the exact chart that disproves your point.

Higher percentages (or that spike on the chart) is not a good thing in this case...........

The the high point of Black unemployment from 1990 to 2017 occurred in 2010 with a rate of 16%. The President?...not POTUS 41,42,43 or 45...yeah, the Fundamentally Transform America guy.

Isn't 2010 in the midst of the Great Recession??

Yeah race relations did worse cause ppl couldn't get past a black man being President, yeah that was his fault.

Because Republicans are always trying to Kill us?

How so?

From the Justice System to the Health System. We are in a constant battle with the Republican Party. If it helps the Minorities, they’re against it. If it helps the Middle and lower classes, they sabotage it like the “so called” Middle Class Tax Cut for the Rich. That’s How

I suspect you can't actually reconcile the corporate bonuses and reinvestment with Pelosi and Schumer's rhetoric about "Tax cut for the rich". This may come as a shock, but Government doesn't actually create jobs, they regulate & administer; that's it. Businesses creates jobs.

So I guess the Senators , Congressmen, Social Workers, Clerks, Governors , Local State Houses and Police and Sheriffs, Fire Fighters and the Whitehouse on and infinitum and the Retirement check I receive every month is coming from some well meaning Corporation.

Government worker fill positions that developed based on need. Let me be more specific, the engine that drives the U.S. Economy is the Private Sector. Government jobs aren’t what drives national and global economies, they don’t exist to Make Profit.

Agree 100%. Larry asks a simple Q below. There won't be answers except "they want to kill us" like Alethea proclaims. That's so far out there it reveals major work to bring people truth. If anyone wants to "kill you" it's Planned Parenthood.https://twitter.com/larryelder/status/990580282183970817?s=21 …

The people who call the Democratic Party a “plantation” are the same ones fighting to preserve Confederate memorials & boycotting the NFL for the protesters getting too “uppity”. Oh, and they REALLY hated Barack Obama.

And you’re gaslighting us all when you argue that the racism of Democrats 150 years ago outweighs the racism of Republicans 10 minutes ago.

Merely pointing out factual history and juxtaposing it with the emotional context of present being conveyed as facts.

No, you’re playing the very tired “Whataboutism” game, which is used to elevate the objectively worse side. Do better. BE better.

And the ignore the post-Reconstruction complicity of Republicans in oppressing black folks, at worst through participation and at best through neglect.

The only time Republicans were truly progressive on race, except maybe in federal hiring, was 1865-1877 and 1955-1965. And even then it was only northern Republicans.

I always cite my position with factual sources.
