(ThyBlackMan.com) Black men we need you to stand Black women this election season. There needs to be no gender division within the Black community regarding who we’re voting against. I am not one of those Black women that see Black men as my natural enemy. Brothers are in no way an enemy nor threat to me in that white America is and has been. With that being said, there are some of our brothers out here that are pro Trump not realizing that they are voting against themselves. The problem with this is they are looking at Kamala Harris as an unsuitable option for them because they feel she has imprisoned black men. My question to them is, are you reading and researching for yourself or are you taking bits and pieces and sound bites given to you by the Republican Party?

Black Men, Stand with Black Women: Vote Against Donald Trump for Our Community's Future.

Black men, are you feeling that you must vote in the best interest of your own self-preservation, or are you going to stand with black women to vote in the best interests of our community as a whole? Voting for Trump is dangerous to national security, any positively progressive domestic agenda, and it is dangerous to our foreign position. How can you not see this? Do you realize that voting for Trump is dangerous for your children, your mothers, your sisters, your wives, your sons? It is dangerous for you. Have you taken the time to research Trump’s response to the death of George Floyd, and other Black men that made national news? Have you taken the time to research Trump’s position when black people in this country were targeted? Do you realize how many black men and women were targeted more so by the police under the Trump administration? Donald Trump is not for Black people. Donald Trump really isn’t for anyone but himself.

Black men let me ask you this, do you know the history of the incarceration of Black men in this country, right? If you’ve done that research, or you are honest with yourself about your past or the past of one of your fellow family members, how can you vote for a convicted felon? What does that have to do with Kamala Harris? Kamala Harris is not a convicted felon. Why is this so important? Let me explain. It is important because so many of our black men have lost their right to vote due to being convicted of felony crimes. We all know the justice department is not fair with Black men in terms of charges and sentences. There are Black men convicted of felonies that probably should have had a lesser sentence. There have been Black men convicted of felonies that they were innocent, and they must go through plenty of fighting and red tape just to get their rights to vote restored. How do you reconcile then, voting for a convicted felon knowing that so many of your Black brothers are unable to vote because they’re felons? How does that hypocrisy register with you?

If you are a Black man who says, well, it’s all about the economics for me; I vote Republican because of their economic position. Brother there are Republicans that are not endorsing Donald Trump because this is bigger than the economic position. Do you realize that the economic position could very well collapse by the movements and decisions of this man as President of the United States. Furthermore, if your life is at risk the economics won’t matter. Having money has never stopped a Black man from being systemically harmed…or harmed physically due to being Black in America. Again, he is not safe nationally, nor is he safe from a foreign position. Black man, how are you reconciling this vote knowing that he doesn’t care about women’s rights and women’s health, but there are women in your family? How do you justify that? You may be saying to yourself, well, Republicans are against certain policies that I stand by morally, and that makes me feel comfortable voting for them; you may feel they never took your vote for granted.

Black man both parties have taken your vote, our vote, for granted. Neither party has prioritized us. But again, this is not about Republicans, this is about Donald Trump. This is a time where we must lay our party position down and take a stance against a convicted felon. He could care less about the things that you hold dear morally or economically. He’s just dangerous. Black men, we as Black women are asking you to stand with us. I won’t judge you either way, because that’s not my place. But for every movement this nation has ever had, Black women have stood by you. When Black men were beaten and hung, Black women were there with you. When Black men go to prison, it is black women that are there with you. When Black men and Black boys are gunned down and murdered in the streets, it is Black women that protest with you… Black women that organize with you. This is because we are the mothers, the wives, the sisters, the girlfriends, the grandmothers. We are, in part, keepers of this community along with you. At every turn, black women have never let you down as a community standing with you. We have never betrayed you, Black man when it comes to the movement for our people. With that being said, we need your vote come November.

We need you to stand with us to vote against Donald Trump. We are asking you to vote in the best interest of your community. We are asking you to vote in the best interest of your children, of your family members, of the women in your family. We are asking you to prioritize the survival and the safety of Black people in America, and that includes you. This isn’t about how you feel about Black women at the end of the day, because I know some will make that argument. This isn’t about if you feel that we are angry or emotional. The bottom line, Black man, is we’ve never left you. We’re asking you not to leave us. If you have issue with Kamala Harris and she’s not the perfect candidate for you, understand that we get it. There are many Black women who do not agree with the politics of Kamala Harris, and many of us not voting for her.

The bottom line is we are voting against Trump. So, whoever the Democratic Party selected, we would have backed that candidate. It just so happens that this candidate is a Black woman. How you feel about her blackness is something else that is causing a divide. She is just as Black as former president Barak Obama. You don’t have to like it, but it is the truth. More importantly, the bottom line is we need you to vote in the best interest of our people. We won’t beg you, but we hope come November, you won’t let us down. We hope we won’t see a significant difference between our voting numbers and yours, only to have that thrown in our face that Black men are our enemies. I don’t believe that to be the case. And I’m asking you to prove me right. We need your vote.

The Republican, Donald Trump, and his follower’s overall anti- respect for the U.S. Constitution, and anti-respect for the law demonstrates Trump’s clear leadership of those whites who want to break away from the American brands of white supremacy, and white privilege because these antiquated western world colonial doctrines of control are ending. Black women, and black men now find themselves in the beginnings of black existentialism creating Willie Lynch arguments with each other about which of them was the better white man whore, and white woman whore? It is best that we do this now so that we can continue to bring into existence the real America that is knocking at the door. The real America honestly addresses the needs of all American citizens regardless of race, creed, or color. It is beginning to look like the Founding Fathers of America, through the creation of a U.S. Constitution, and its Amendments stumbled upon America’s truly liberating roots. Freedoms which were once just for white people are now freedoms for all. No more slaves, only free citizens with rights subject only to the impositions of duly legislated laws. One citizen, one vote. Vote the Democratic Ticket, and remain free.

Good Article but wrong message to acquire a vote of a true black men. When black women vote, they are actually voting on emotions and manipulations by white democrats who make promises but do not provide anything that specific and tangible to the empowerment, growth, financial stability of the entire African American community. Black women voted for Biden because he told you that “if you do not vote for him then you are not black”, So our black sisters proceeded to vote for this white men and once taken up office in the white house, He proceeded to pass laws and make bills that only protected and benefited the Asian community, the Hispanic community, the Jewish community, the Afghan refuge community, The Ukranian community and their own white community. Yet, completely forgetting about the black community that put him and Karmala in the office and spitting in our face once more just like the Clintons and the Obama’s did to black America while giving every other race and community what ever they asked for and what every they did not asked for.

Ms. Star, You mentioned that black men should stand with black women and vote democrats! But I asked you when have black women stand with black men and fought alongside black men to stop the wrath and onslaught of racism, discrimination, double standards and the school to prison pipeline that is killing our young black democratic boys and men. A black women is quick to leave and abandoned a black men the minute she becomes successful and meets new white friends, a black women will denied her African heritage the minute she start dating a white men or the minute she moves into a white men’s neighborhood; a black women will forget about the black men the minutes she gets promoted to a hire promotion at her job and the minute her entrepreneur business reaches its highest potential. So, now you want the black men to stand with you and vote for a half breed women who is married to a white men that will not hesitate to tell you to stop dating or talking to a black men.

Let’s me start off by saying that i am a proud black men and a proud republican brother with a job, a college degree, with No criminal records, No drugs, No alcohol consumption, No kids out of wedlock, No gang or drug affiliation whatsoever; but I love my black community and for the last 20 years i have observed the Democratic party under Obama and Clinton Lie to our community and make promises that were never fulfill; while the gave everything that they promised to other communities that do not have the best interest of the black men in America.

Remember, that black republican men are honest, hard working, respectful, reliable, law abiding, gun owners, college educated, military veterans, good fathers, good husbands and good black role models which is something that is present in the republican party and those who are republicans.

On the other hand, Black men or African American Men who are Democrats and supporters of the democratic party are usually, criminals, gang bangers, weed smokers, alcoholics, , who wear saggy pants exposing their buttocks and wearing very feminine underwear. More so, Democratic black men have criminal records, kids out of wedlock’s with 5 to 7 different democratic women, they are also dead beat dads who do not provide for their bastard kids; Additional, all black men who are democrats are known to forceful attempt to have sex with their own cousins either female or male, they are very disrespectful towards women, they cheat, they abuse and beat their democratic black women, they smoke a lot of weed and drink and drive, they are very emotionally unstable and violent and ready to fight another black me nfor no reason.

Likewise, must black rappers and entertainers come from single mother black homes who are democrats, these bastards kids who either become rappers or athletes are known to be cheaters, to lie, to attacked other races for not reason, to spread STD and have multiple kids with multiple democratic black women.. Yes, the majority of your so called black democratic men are a disgrace to America and to our black community. A black democratic men will tell a black women that she is fine and good to fuck; but he will never tell her that shie is fine and good to be a wife and a mother of his kids.

Indeed, the majority of black democratic men will not put a ring on the finger of a black democratic women but they will put their penis n her and ejaculate in her giving her an STD and a bastard kid that he will denied and abandoned. Must democratic black men are dead beat fathers and have criminal records and not loyalty to the betterment of the black community.

You do not have to believe me but you know for a fact that many of your owned black democratic men of your family and friends are either walking down the streets with saggy pants, smoking weed, doing drugs, Seeling drugs to our children, they have no jobs, they have lots of Sexually transmitted diseases, they have lots of children with ghetto black democratic women, they have criminal records, either on parole or probation etc.. Lets not forget black democratic men such as rappers and the average black men are always trying to have sex with their cousins, friends, neighbors etc.. More so, may democratic black men are constantly harassing black women sexually and many of you democratic beautiful black women know that this is true because you yourself have been victim to a black democratic men, either a family member, friend, or neighbor trying to touch you inappropriately and even to rape you agsinst your will.
