The race subject got her flustered. First time tonight I've seen her off her footing. #HarrisTrumpDebate2024

Trying to dismiss reparations calls as ‘Russian disinformation’ is false, disrespectful and frankly, desperate.
If you don’t have a counter argument. At least have some dignity.

I taught my children EARLY, 🙌🏾 and I didn’t suger coat shit, I gave them what life is REAL RAW and UNCUT 💯 that’s why they are working and driving and have their own homes at their young ages. A lot of folks are SCARED to speak up I’m just NOT one of them. BREAK them cycles and don’t wait till it’s too late to teach your OWN children don’t leave it up to these school systems……..

As a man you gotta be able to discern if a women is unhappy with you, your relationship or herself.
The first you can change.
The second you can (ideally) change together.
The third only SHE can change and you better decide FAST if you wanna risk your peace tryna be hers.

Amani says, "I wanted to highlight the historic businesses in WNY. Specifically The Colored Musicians Club and The Buffalo Criterion Newspaper. Both businesses are black-owned, the founders were pioneers and created safe places during a time when there were few."
