In a previous piece, I posted my livestream addressing the history between the Republican Party and the black community. I discussed the historical events and decisions that led African Americans to overwhelmingly support the Democratic Party.
As the initial video was three hours long, I decided to break it up into smaller chunks to make it easier to consume. In this first section, I discuss the Lily-White movement that arose in the GOP shortly after the end of Reconstruction and how it spread to southern states.
In the presentation, I detail how the movement eventually took power in various state’s Republican Parties and systematically began ousting black leaders in a bid to appeal to southern white voters. The movement led to the GOP’s alienating black voters to the extent that they began seriously considering the Democratic Party despite the fact that it was also full of southern whites who weren’t too keen on the notion that blacks should be a focal point.
In the next section, I will discuss how the movement pushed African Americans towards the New Deal policies of President Franklin Delano Roosevelt.
Biden’s and Abram’s lies about the Georgia voter integrity law (which resulted in the move of the MLB All-star Game from 51% Black Atlanta to 9% Black Denver) might drive the nail in the coffin. This is really bad when you consider that Colorado has a shorter early-voting period than Georgia and also requires voter ID.
