Black people are always in to forefront championing causes for every other "people of color"..But can anyone name a time when other so-called "poc" ever got in the forefront in large numbers to get laws passed in favor of Black people? This is a very serious question

what laws did she get passed for Black people?
What laws have you gotten passed for Black people? Serious question. Provide links. Your question was can we name someone who stood out front to get laws passed for Black people. She’s done that. And she was absolutely essential in getting Raise The Age passed in New York.

Black people fought in large numbers in the Civil Rights movement & got their heads bashed in to get laws passed for ALL "minority" groups. All these other "poc" benefitted greatly for Blacks getting beat up. When has this been reciprocal? And "Raise The Age" wasn't race specific
-
Have you been to organizing meetings among activists in New York, Los Angeles, or Seattle? The most diverse stuff I've ever seen. Also, Raise the Age was used almost exclusively against African American children. A lot more going on that you just haven't seen man.

The Raise The Age is another one of those "lift every boat and it will help Black people too" programs. And this proves my point. None of these other groups have done NOTHING in LARGE NUMBERS to SPECIFICALLY help Black people .

I have not gotten one single solitary law passed. And thats why I'm questioning all these other "poc".Because when I look for their help to join me and others to get LAWS PASSED for Black people, they get quiet. But Black people help get laws passed for specific "minority" groups

Boarding a plane. I assure you it's happening way more than you know on the local level all over this country. I've seen it, strategized with folk.

If it existed Shaun, you could simple point to a specific policy. For example, I can point to specific policies that Black peoples like Obama passed SPECIFICALLY for Hispanic, Native America, etc. But there has never been a comparative effort by other poc SPECIFICALLY for Blacks

Shaun King since you claim to be black I would hope it offend's you that using the term people of color is detrimental to our race, doesn't it? If you do research on Black America as it pertains to other groups they are surprising us.

You didn’t answer Tyriq question you don’t answer a question with a question. And you gave an individual when asked about a group.
