      Forget the past for a moment. The GOP can prove they're the party of civil rights right now. The voting rights act reauthorization. Equal rights for LGBTQ. Stop the Confederate nostalgia Etc etc. They control the entire fed govt. Be the Civil Rights party!https://twitter.com/johnlegend/status/991054020176371712 …

      True! And then all the segregationists and their ideological descendants eventually became Republicans! The solid south of the Democratic party became the solid south of the Republicans. White southern vote is almost exclusively GOP. Facts bruh.

      Earn our votes, not by calling us slaves, but by actually passing laws that address our concerns

          1) why can't kanye do his own damn research? 2) why we trying to pull him to think straight by giving him historical facts when the parties of today are not what they used to be? Trump and all his supporters behavior is enough to show what's wrong with them!!

          Think straight? You assert "all" Trump supporters behave a certain way. What a ridiculous thing to say. Your identity politics is precisely why we have Trump.

          Every single trump supporter does not care what you have to say to them. You can throw them all the facts and evidence and they'll hit with insults. That's exactly what each one I have encountered has proven me.

          Amy I'm no Trump supporter (Cant stand him) but Republicans ended slavery, most pro-civil rights votes were Republican, a Republican gave us the 1st black sec of state and they have watched the black community vote democrat the last 60 years?

          Ask yourself, Amy, if you did all of that and then watched a voting demographic choose the party that passed Jim Crow laws for 60+ years. You're not going to think you can get there vote. Make Sense?

          Why because Democrats tell you that? In 91' Bush Sr. signed a new civil rights act. It was a Republican senator who fought to establish National Museum of African American History and Culture in 03'. It was a Republican who pushed to give Rosa Parks the congressional gold medal

          Maybe just maybe Amy the republicans of today do not want to "Earn" John vote cause they know he wont give it to them no matter what they do. I gave you facts just like you asked...

          John Legend. What laws do you want. Every time laws have been passed to "help #BlackPeople " they only hurt us. Just look at #welfare . Welfare leads to stagnation. According to the census 41.6% of us are on #welfare and it only went up during #Obama. #Trump #MAGApic.twitter.com/leHc7apsJH

          Replying to @RodriquezKhaliq @johnlegend @kato3000

          Welfare numbers only went up because Obama raised the income for those who could be eligible. Why? Because he wasn’t able to raise minimum wage and working families couldn’t afford the basics. Incomes have stagnated since Reagan.

          If this is true this is sad. So you're saying he wanted to put even more people on #welfare to keep them stagnated so they're stuck with gov assistance and low end #Jobs . #Trump #MAGA

          No. She’s saying he didn’t want children to starve. Why do you keep coming with these republican talking points? Welfare helps people survive until they can get back on their feet.

          Not everyone has the will to succeed. Some stay in bad situations their entire life, but why focus on them? Do you know how many ppl welfare has saved? As a kid we were on welfare and still starving. Now I’m a business owner and attend Harvard. Focus on ppl who the program helped

          Then come up with a plan to change things. Go work in those inner-cities, go mentor children, you know actually get involved. Trying to lecture people and tell them to vote republican is nonsense.

          John I am not old enough to understand slaves or plantations or picking cotton. I am part of the affirmation action generation - I think it worked. In colleges today the brightest, hardest working students are the black students. They are out getting great jobs, have u noticed?

          There’s also this little talked about fact that 80% of ppl Immigrated to this country after slavery was done away with. I am one of them. And NO one alive today unless they’re born before 1865 was a slave. Let’s put this one to bed already.
