I am tired of hearing and reading suggestions from black U.S. citizens advising black people to "sit out", to do nothing, "let white people handle it" regarding the second Trump Administration. In my opinion, those touting this worthless strategy cannot be bothered, yet they enjoy the privileges of blacks who fought hard to gain rights so many black Americans have become accustomed to. The second camp of thought offers a more "legitimate" reason-- fear of martial law. Marital law is going to come anyway, because history is repeating itself before our very eyes with lightening speed. Nazi Germany is here, in America. The white nationalist agenda is being executed by the Trump Administration with great speed.
We are in trouble as a people, whether you know it or not. Black people, you cannot afford to sit in your homes, complacent and content to block everything out in the news.I am absolutely convinced, along with some others, that the white supremacist sitting in our presidential office and his hate crazed minions will do everything in their power to destroy us, including executing deportations. Yes, I do recognize these hate mongers are using fear tactics, but their tactics have manifested into real physical actions which are growing in momentum by the day. The white nationalist's goal is to replace our democracy with a new form of government, controlled by wealthy whites (as if wealthy whites were not already controlling our former democratic state) and to replace our democracy with a new authoritarian government with deliberate intention. Project 2025 demonstrates the shaping of this new form o government, save the complete disregard of the rule of law, yet was ignored and dismissed by millions of Americans.
The Trump Administration upon taking office in 2025 has operated like a weapon of mass destruction upon minorities, the economy; and it immediately set out to destroy international relationships: Canada, Mexico, Ukraine, and more. Reckless tariffs have been implemented against other countries, worldwide, save Russia. The economy is significantly worse.
This week we have seen the erosion of the Supreme Court on display as Trump rejects its ruling directing the retrieval an innocent man deported by ICE, who was sent to an El Salvadorian prison. Now, some white people, including lawyers, even a doctor, have been getting threatening email messages from the Department of Homeland Security demanding they leave the country immediately! These emails are not hoaxes--these are actually government emails. Black people too may eventually receive a such emails, demanding us to leave. Read on.
Note this past week, the Trump Administration has again directed its focus towards the contrived white supremacist issue of "birthright citizenship". A lot of blacks ignore this, thinking this concerns only immigrants. It is a "Pandora's box", as the Trump agenda will eventually seek to make this issue applicable to descendants of slaves. There are some white supremacists hissing black Americans are not really citizens, because their descendants were considered property own by white slave owners, therefore blacks in our country should not be classified as United States citizens. I do advise my people, to carry around a notarized copy of a birth certificate or passport, for the day is fast approaching we may likely need to produce it to ICE when they come to harass us. And sadly, it may not prove to be sufficient.
People are being deported without due process to an El Salvadorian prison by the Department of Homeland Security through ICE. A few months ago, I watched a video of a black man jogging down a street, when ICE suddenly approaches him asserting he was an illegal immigrant and attempted to take him into custody. There are people who have produced documents demonstrating citizenship, yet ICE dismissed their documentation and proceeded to arrest the person. Trump and his goon squad (Gestapo) are disregarding the rule of law in this country, and this is happening every day in the United States.
We must connect as a people, we must organize, and brace ourselves for what is coming. Bullsh*t like sitting at home and ignoring everything is not going to help you when the Trump squads come busting through your door in the middle of the night. This is happening now, and it is reminiscent of Nazi Germany. I am convinced one of the goals of the Trump Administration and his white nationalist oligarchs is to "purge" this country of the "undesirables", that is people of color and the frail--which they consider dispensable and a liability. It is the same contemptuous spirit which infested the Nazis.
If you remain complacent, if you remain ignorant of what is happening in this country, you are going to get blindsided. Whether you choose to resist now or not resist, will not keep Trump from misusing his executive powers or prevent his forces to come after us based on our race. Therefore, is not the logical course of action to resist? If we form a collective, if the masses unite, we will prevail. It is going to be a long battle ahead. This is truly an "all hands on deck" moment in black America. Prepare yourselves. Inform yourselves. Unite. Take action.
