When are you going to run?

Nez, I’m in agreement; I believe you mentioned at your place that while Obama is trying to mend rifts between the races (and not necessarily in the best way, but he’s trying and that’s meritorious in itself), Clinton is openly exploiting those rifts. And the pundits, the activists, the bigots, and the sensationalists are picking up on them. Perhaps the most positive outcome of all this is the American people are facing up to some ugly truths about letting these effects fester in society for so long. It’s a conversation that will extend beyond November.

Malik, the outgrowth of that “conservatism” in electoral politics is what frustrates me, largely because of its extended effects. I am well aware of that. I’m really sick of pretending, however, that the electoral process is something more than a personalities game when important issues are carefully parsed into vague and dismissive catch phrases. I’ve tried to invest myself into understanding it but it’s a cycle of frustration for me. I’d rather work on the issues directly and focus my energies in something more than gotcha games.

Kudos to SheCodes over at Black Women Vote for posting that!

Those persons who want to put some concrete action behind their outbursts of anger can do so.

There is also power in the pen.

We can sit at our keyboards and rant on various blogs or we can actually move ahead as a collective and leverage our collective outrage in ways that WILL make an impact!

Let’s stand up as a unified front and ADDRESS the behaviors and practices we so despise! Being outraged is NOT ENOUGH!

Peace, blessings and DUNAMIS!
Lisa

ps
M, the fact that she said it before only puts the lie to the fact that it just popped up in her mind due to Kennedy. that’s all. it’s something she floated, she didnt get called out the first time, and this time she did.

she’s a lying, evil person. i tried to be nicer before, and i still am fair. but i’ve had to adjust my view on this since this went down. the fact that she is dancing in puerto rico today, with no acknowledgement of the IMPACT of what she said, forget intent, i know she’ll never admit intent. but i have no doubt. and the fact that she is so carefree and happy and adamant about not acknowledging the context she lives in….well. i hope i said what i needed to here.
