Will Black Americans MANA

No there is no typo in the title of this piece. It is set out this way for a reason. Wait and you’ll see.

The Culture shift is gaining steam as I write. The only surprise is the speed with which it is taking place. Who could have foreseen such a thing in 2020? This time it is different; one can almost taste it.

Now is the time to pursue new alliances as I see it.

The acronym in the title of this piece stands for Make Americans Nationalist Again. (MANA)

While the question is; will black Americans make America Nationalist again?

What got me thinking was a video posted to the X platform. In the clip an angry African American woman gave a speech in which she gave the Dem Party hell. This was at a local emergency meeting in one town.

Saying that Malcom X was right about white liberals she berated Dems for using black people for gain; only to betray them down the line when it suited them.

Her address drew a chorus of approval from other blacks and even from one or two whites. The others meanwhile sat there gobsmacked.

She pointed to one guy there as Mr Tampon tee he. He looked flushed. She said Kamala Harris could not make her mind up about what race she is. More sniggers.

I will say this; she was fiery AND coherent as she laid it out.

She ended off by saying these libs should follow the lead of RFK Jnr and Tulsa Gabbard; and get out of the Democratic Party.

This would leave blacks free to take it over. I do not know why she is bothered to be honest. It would be easier just to leave it to its ruinous heap and find another.

On second thoughts she may have meant it as a metaphor. Maybe she tried to make the point that the Dem party is NOT Democratic. This in the sense that it is open and represents all.

My take is that there appears to be a gap; can black and white Americans Nationals and others stand in it?

They have more in common than they think but most of all a common foe; and you know who they’d be. Another plus is each side seem to know where the other is coming from.

You could say this is a call to strategize on a way forward. To try and make every attempt to find common ground when and where it exists.

The times we in are unprecedented and demand this much. The US owes it to itself and to its people.

There is a need to keep up the present momentum and turn the focus on a new, broad kind of patriot front. Will it be MAGA and MANA both?

I say come on now. Bring it.
