I am afraid the United States has become a failed democracy. The most crucial point is that now if Democrats propose legislation which would be tremendous benefit to Americans, the Republicans see that as a disastrous consequence for them, and so will do everything to kill such legislation. Case in point is the current infrastructure legislation proposed. In my estimation, this is the most beneficial legislation for Americans proposed since Social Security and Medicare. It is no surprise that Re

Advocacy in black race has not really gotten the best of concern, accolades and support. Basically, it is because, maybe, the understanding about it is low or because to most humans in that race, any and everything should be and addressed with the same gloves used in contemporary politics.

Some businesses are 100% Black-owned and operated, like this platform. These brands outright identify as having Black founders and CEOs. Brands I love like Capital City Mambo Sauce, Uncle Ray's Products, and clothes from Black Vibe Tribe or hair care products from Black Naps (Natural and Proud Sistas).
