Blacks Should not March for White people on the streets| Prof.Shahid Sends a Crucial WARNING to blks

Añadido: 2026-05-30

[00:00:00]I received an email uh from an African-American woman living in the US, a Democrat, uh and she said, uh, "Brother Bolson, my mother or sorry, my grandmother marched in Selma in Selma, Alabama during the civil rights movement so that I could have the right to vote." She said, "I'm raising two kids on a hospital tax paycheck." She said, "I don't vote blue because I love the Democrats. I vote blue because the Republicans are coming for my son's Medicaid. She said, "I'm I vote blue because they're coming for my daughter's education, her library books, and so forth." She said, "Uh, you say that both parties are part of the same system."

[00:00:41]Maybe so, but what are you actually offering me? She said, "What are you offering somebody like me uh in November or in an election year? not some uh Islamic civilization 100 years from now, but this week, right now, here and now in America when I'm about to cast my ballot. Okay, first of all, I'm not running for office. I know you got used to selling your uh your vote in exchange for promises in exchange for IUS.

[00:01:07]Meanwhile, your politicians, by the way, are selling their policy decisions for cold hard cash. They're selling their policy positions for uh board positions and corporate uh shares and so forth.

[00:01:17]But you got used to being appeased and you got used to being catered to with pretty sounding words. And now you want me to use those same pretty sounding words. Uh as if I want something from you. There's no transaction here. I don't want anything. Okay. Now, first of all, let's be clear about something.

[00:01:33]Your mother, your grandmother, sorry, your grandmother did not march in Selma, Alabama for the right to vote. No. I know that's what you've been told. I know that's what the textbooks say.

[00:01:42]That's what the uh the legends all are.

[00:01:44]That's what the speeches and the documentaries and whatnot about the civil rights movement tell you. Uh but obviously no one nobody uh is going to take a billy club to the side of the head just for the right to put a piece of paper in a box. No one is going to bleed on the u the Edund Pettis Bridge in exchange for the privilege of pulling a lever in a booth. That's not what she was doing out there. That can't be what she was doing out there. Not at all. No, she was marching for what voting was advertised to her to be. You understand? For what they told her voting was. They told her that it was a process by which her voice could be heard, by which her presence in that country would be acknowledged, would be recognized, a process by which she would count in America. She marched for representation. She marched for dignity.

[00:02:34]She marched for respect. She marched for citizenship in the full sense of that word. She marched to be a person whose existence in that country could actually shape the way the country operated. You understand? So then ask yourself, did voting deliver that? Did voting deliver any of that? No. What she marched for, you still don't have? That's the truth.

[00:02:56]So now all you did was inherit a ritual, a voting ritual, an election ritual, and you call that her legacy. So now you go out every 2 years, every four years, and you perform that ritual. I mean, that's like if your grandmother, if your grandmother fought for the right to chop wood uh so that she would have lumber to build a house, right? She cho she fought for the right to chop wood. And now 60 years later, you're still going out uh uh chopping wood, stacking it up, but the the the the permit to build the house never came and it never is coming.

[00:03:27]But you keep chopping anyway because you think that's what your grandma fought for. No, that's not what she fought for.

[00:03:32]She didn't fight for the right to chop the wood. She fought for the right to have a house, to build a house. The chopping of the wood is a means to an end. And you keep confusing the means with the end. And the people who are running the system are very happy that you're getting those two things confused. Voting is not what she fought for. Not it's not what any of them fought for. Representation is what she fought for. Dignity is what she fought for. Respect, participation, that's what she stood for and that's what you should be standing for today.

[00:04:00]And I'm here to tell you that uh uh uh what she stood for has almost nothing whatsoever to do with what happens on uh uh the first Tuesday of November in an election year. That's not an opinion.

[00:04:12]That's not an opinion. That's the truth.

[00:04:14]There's a study by a law professor at the University of Chicago, uh Nicholas, uh Stephanopoulos. He looked at federal legislation and he asked a very simple question.

[00:04:26]uh when black Americans when African-Americans support a policy, does it become more likely that that policy will come into being? You would think yes. Obviously, you would think yes, because that's what representation means. But what he found was the exact opposite. As white support for a policy goes from 0 to 100%. Then the chances of it passing rises from about 10% to about 60%. Okay, that's representation. That's what representation looks like in the data. But as black support, as African-American support goes from 0 to 100% uh in favor of this or that policy, the chances of it passing falls about 40 to 30%. Did you hear me? Black support for a policy makes it less likely to become a law in the United States of America.

[00:05:15]That's not under representation. That's negative representation. means your endorsement of a policy is detrimental for legislation in that country. It's detrimental to the policy if you're for it. Then there's a broader study that was done by the uh by Princeton Princeton and Northwestern. They did a study where they looked at 2,000 federal policy decisions over the course of 20 years of the course of a 20-year period.

[00:05:40]And they found that the preference of average Americans, average Americans of all races, by the way, all races, their preference has a near zero uh statistically insignificant effect on what the government does. Almost no effect whatsoever. Meanwhile, the wealthy and organized business interests have a substantial effect. They decide everything at the end of the day. So, the average white voter has no real representation either. But black voters sit inside that already rigged system and they just get a little additional racist penalty stacked on top when they support a policy. You understand? Okay.

[00:06:16]Your grandmother marched at Selma. 60 years after Selma, 60 years after having the voting franchise, according to the Federal Reserve's own data in 2025, uh African-Americans are nearly 14% of the population in the United States of America, but they only hold 3.4% 4% of the wealth of the United States of America. White Americans are 57% of the population and they hold 83% of the wealth. Median black family net worth is $44,000.

[00:06:47]Median white family net worth is $282,000.

[00:06:52]That's 15 cents on the dollar. The Federal Reserve Bank of Minneapolis went back and reconstructed uh this wealth gap. Uh >> Hello, brothers and sisters. Welcome back to the channel. I'm hopic that you are doing great from wherever you're watching this video from. As you know, I'm your host and preent stories. Now, Shade Bolson um reflects on something that I think it's really really important to uh the black community and this is a message that shed Bolson shares and I think that it's really really important for people to note how sometimes we are all being played because um they want to keep us on the loop. They want to keep us on the loop that we what we are doing the when we get out there we are getting we are fighting for freedom. We are fighting uh for us to get the the rights to vote. But the real truth is that black people when they get out there they get with an aim of having equal representation. So that's what's really happening. So shade Boston shares light uh shares light in something that I believe that it's really really important. But a couple of things that I just want to highlight up front is that uh the myth of vote as a tool for empowerment. Remember that shade Bolson argues that while historians historical figures fought for representation, dignity and citizenship, the act of voting has been reduced to a ritual that does not actually confer power. Right?

[00:08:23]So when you go out there you think that you have the rights to vote but it's a loop that they are trying to put you in and the main cause for uh you to understand this is this the same thing that your ancestors was trying to do. It is the same thing that they really really try to do. So I understand that trade Bolson digs deeper to what is really really important and he confers to the sense that he wants black people to really understand the cause of them protesting the cause of them getting out there and um trying to protest in regards to all these things that are happening. I really don't know what you'll think but um I I'm a believer that when we get out there it is for a cause but you understand that it t I mean it has been a ritual it has been a ritual performing a ritual as shade balls and asserts but one thing that I like and black people are getting recognized is that not everything that is happening in America definitely wants their voices and they are deciding to keep silent. they are cutting down um what we call the ritual that the the previous ancestors were doing. Not that we are not proud of what they are doing but now black people in America want to take a different turn because they now see and understand how things really happen or how things go. So brothers and sisters please let me know what you think about this. Um as you know I'm your host and pre is next stories and for those watching me for the first time you know I'm asking you to please subscribe to the channel join um join the membership and really get to see what I can offer you until then uh let's watch the video I'll be back with my thoughts and commentaries in regards to this. So let's watch the video. I'll be back >> back to 1860 and they found that this gap has been essentially flat for the last 40 years. It's been stagnant. It's been frozen. You understand? 60 years of African-Americans voting Democratic at 90% margin, meaning voting blue 90% of the time, just like this sister who wrote to me, that didn't help change the wealth gap. And home ownership in 1960, before the Civil Rights Act, before the the Fair Housing Act, before most of uh your grandmother's generation could vote, the uh black tow home ownership ratio or the gap the gap was 26 points.

[00:10:42]There was a gap of 26 points between black and white home ownership. In 2020, 60 years after the voting was allowed, it's now 30 points. You understand? It got worse. The instrument that she fought for did not narrow the gap in any way whatsoever. It widened the gap. Not to mention unemployment. Black unemployment runs roughly twice the white rate.

[00:11:03]Always under Reagan, under Clinton, under Bush, under Obama, under Trump, under Biden, and under Trump. Again, the ratio doesn't move. The ratio does not respond to whoever is in office. And the same with mass incarceration. The Bureau of Justice statistics from just last September found that black adults are imprisoned at 5.3 times the rate of white adults in America.

[00:11:24]Talking about 1 in 54 black men is in prison right now today while I'm talking. The prison population in the United States of America went from 500,000 500,000 half a million in 1980 to 2.2 million in 2015. a 700% increase.

[00:11:42]And the architects of that machine were the people that you voted for. Joe Biden wrote the uh 1994 crime bill. Bill Clinton signed it. The 1986 uh anti-drug abuse act, which is the the crack cocaine versus powder cocaine disparity that destroyed a whole generation of black people of African-Americans. That was supported with bipartisan support.

[00:12:04]Welfare reform that gutted the safety net for poor black people. Uh, Bill Clinton in 1996 passed that. Obama deported more people than any president before Trump. These are the people that you voted for, not the people that you voted against. These are the works of the people that you yourselves delivered into office with your with the African-American voting block. I'm asking, is that what your grandmother fought for at Selma? Is that what she fought for during the civil rights movement? Or police killings? 2024 was the deadliest year on record under a Democratic administration, Joe Biden.

[00:12:37]Black Americans are 12% of the population of the United States of America, but 26% of those who get murdered by the police. And that ratio is stable. It's completely stable for the entire decade uh for which we have data. You understand? It doesn't move when the White House changes hands. And in 99% of the cases, no officer is charged. It doesn't matter who you voted for. Now, tell me, with all of that, with all of that, what exactly did the vote deliver for African-Americans?

[00:13:08]Now, you might say it delivered Medicare, delivered Medicaid, expansion of Medicaid, the Affordable Care Act, and so forth. But be honest, what are those policies? What are those programs?

[00:13:16]None of those programs, not a single one of those programs was designed for African-Americans. They were universalist policies that happened to pick up uh black Americans, African-Americans.

[00:13:27]Incidentally, because black Americans also happen to be disproportionately poor and disproportionately lacking in healthcare, you know as well as I do that they would have excluded black people from those policies if they could have. In fact, yes, look at uh which states, which of the American states refused to expand Medicaid? You're talking about Texas, Florida, Mississippi, uh Alabama, Georgia, South Carolina, the so-called black belt.

[00:13:53]You understand? the states that have the highest black populations.

[00:13:57]So even the spillover got geographically gated away from the people who would have benefited from it the most. In other words, they did they did in fact exclude you as best they could. They found any kind of a which way to exclude you from it. And the things that black people actually did get from the government that was actually directly for them, the things that they actually did get that was specifically for them, like the Civil Rights Act, the Voting Rights Act, and so forth, they did not get that by voting. Black Southerners couldn't vote in 1964. That's not how they got those concessions. They got those policies from what they did in Birmingham, what they did, what your grandmother did in Selma, what they did in Montgomery, and so forth. From mass disruption that made those places ungovernable until the law changed. Look at that. They responded more uh uh to African-Americans without the vote than with the vote. You understand? That's the actual lesson in my opinion. That's the actual lesson of your grandmother's life and of that whole generation. It's the opposite of the lesson that you've been taught. No, the franchise was won by people uh who didn't have the franchise.

[00:15:04]And once that franchise was won, all of the gains stopped. the leverage that won the vote in the first place got demobilized by the act of using the vote. You understand? So when you stand there on a Tuesday in November on election day and you tell me that you are honoring your grandmother, madam, I'm telling you with all due respect, you are not. You're performing a ritual.

[00:15:28]You're performing a ritual that was designed to absorb your grandmother's movement and neutralize it.

[00:15:36]You understand? They gave her the vote instead of giving her power. They gave her the vote instead of giving her representation. They gave her the vote instead of giving her influence, instead of giving her a voice, and instead of giving her dignity. I said the chopping is not the house. The voting is not the representation. And the day that you understand that is the day that you start being dangerous to power again, the way that your grandmother was dangerous to power. Stay with me because the deeper truth, this is what you need to know. And I keep telling you the people that you elect, both parties, Republican and Democrat, all of them, are not running that country. They are middle management at best. They're just tenants in a building that they do not own. You understand me? Three companies, just three companies, Black Rockck, Vanguard, and State Street. Okay?

[00:16:24]Together, those three companies, they manage somewhere over $30 trillion in assets. That's trillion with a T. They are the single largest shareholder in 88% of the companies on the S&P 500.

[00:16:40]88%.

[00:16:42]You understand me? They cast roughly a quarter of all uh shareholder votes in corporate America. the food you buy, the medicine that you take, the bank that your that that your paycheck uh moves through on its way to go pay your bills, the company that owns the hospital that that uh sister works for, uh the landlord that owns the building where you rent, go if you go up the ownership chain of any of those, you go up the ownership chain, you're going to find you're going to you're going to hit those same three names.

[00:17:13]That's the private oligarchy with just three faces. One private oligarchy, three faces. That's the private sector trinity that you live under. And every politician that you ever voted for, whether it's a Republican or a Democrat, is operating according to what those asset managers want. It's very simple to understand. If they step outside of what those asset managers want, their career ends. That's the real power structure in America. So, if that's the real power structure in America, what is the African-American share of that power of that power? Not the not not the the polling booth. You understand? at the actual table where the decisions are actually being made in real life. Well, of the 500 largest companies in that country in the United States, companies that that that move something like 2/3 of all US economic output, nine maybe 10 of them, maybe 10, are run by black CEOs in 2026. That's not 9%, that's nine companies. In other words, 1.8%.

[00:18:07]In the 70 years that the uh Fortune 500 list has existed, only 28 black people have ever held a CEO position at any one of those companies ever. Black Americans are about 13% of the total labor force, regular labor force. When you go up to the manager level, that drops to 7%. If you go up to the vice president or the senior vice president levels, it drops to 4% or maybe 5%. So the pyramid narrows very fast. It narrows so fast that you can watch it exclude uh u most of the population, the the African-American population in real time as you climb. You understand? And the few black executives who do reach the top floor, uh they're not running funds that own corporate America. They're running individual companies who who themselves are owned by BlackRock. Their largest shareholder is Black Rockck or State Street State Street or Vanguard.

[00:18:59]And obviously you don't get to climb that ladder at all if you're not going to go through uh the same internal process of exclusion. Do you know what I mean? In other words, you climb that ladder uh by becoming more of what they want you to be and less of who you are and less of where you came from. You understand? You're not pulling anyone up when you climb that ladder. That's not how it works.

[00:19:23]You're you're you're leaving yourself behind. You're leaving who you are and who you were behind and you're leaving everyone else around you behind when you climb that ladder. That's the condition.

[00:19:32]That's the condition for getting to being allowed to climb that ladder. Now, I'm not telling you all this so that I can try and sell you on this the the idea of so-called black capitalism.

[00:19:40]That's a different ideology altogether and it comes with its own unique set of problems. I'm telling you this just so that you can see the structure of the country that you live in, the society that you live in. And the structure is that you have a tiny private oligarchy at the top who owns the system and the political class uh manages that system on behalf of the oligarchy. Okay. Black Americans have minimal representation at that middle uh middle management political layer and they effectively have zero representation at the ownership layer.

[00:20:12]This is the facts. So when people argue about whether to vote Democrat or whether to vote uh Republican, uh what they're actually arguing about is just about which uh uh which faction is going to be assigned the uh privilege of serving the oligarchy this time around. The owners don't change. The owners never change. And the owners are never on the ballot. You don't get a vote on the owners. No. Your grandmother, in my opinion, most likely understood power. She understood power better than the people who tell her story today. She marched for recognition as a full human being whose existence mattered. The vote was the symbol of that recognition. It was not the substance of that recognition. We've spent 60 years confusing the symbol with the substance. You understand? So now you have the symbol. Yes, you have the symbol. You've got the lever. You've got the ballot. You can put your piece of paper in the box. But you have less and less of the actual substance every year.

[00:21:09]The wealth gap is what it is. Mass incarceration rate is what it is. The neighborhoods are what they are. And the people who decide uh what your neighborhoods are going to look like in the next 5 years or 5 years down the line, those people are not the people that you vote for. You don't even know those people's names. They're the people who own the buildings. They're the people who write the loans. They're the people who set the insurance rates and so forth. Most likely, your grandmother would probably have understood that immediately. I don't think that she was naive about power. She just happened to live at a time uh when that particular paradigm, that particular understanding of the power structure and that that particular understanding of the system had not yet been completely exposed as false to most people. And of course, the real power dynamics in 2026 anyway are not what they were in 1965.

[00:21:59]The empire that she was living in in 1965 is contracting in 2026.

[00:22:05]I'm telling you that your grandmother did what she did. She fought for what she fought for uh most likely after making an evaluation of the real circumstances and the real conditions in her era in her time. And you cannot act like the evaluation that she made 60 years ago is accurate today. It's not.

[00:22:23]You have to reassess.

[00:22:25]The G7, which is the United States and its closest European allies, Western allies, they held 65% of the world economy in 2002. By 2024 in purchasing power terms that share is down to roughly 30% and falling. Do you understand?

[00:22:43]The bricks block China, India, Russia, Brazil, South Africa, uh, plus Iran, plus Egypt, plus Ethiopia and the UAE and Indonesia, they passed the G7 in economic weight all the way back in 2018.

[00:22:56]Now they're around 35 to 40% and rising of the global economies, their share in the global economy. The center of of gravity of the global economy has already moved. That's already happened.

[00:23:06]The dollar's monopoly on oil is going to be dismantled. It's being dismantled right now. Countries are signing their own trade deals, bilateral trade deals in their own currencies. That's not an opinion. That's what's happening. You understand? Globally, people of European descent, what Americans call white, uh, are roughly 10 to 15% of total humanity, depending upon what sort of a definition you use for white or European. Inside the United States, non-Hispanic whites, so-cal are projected to fall below 50% of the domestic population by around 2045, probably sooner. The white population of Europe, Kalasi, they're in absolute decline. Their deaths exceed their births in most of their countries.

[00:23:51]The white share of the world, I'm saying, is shrinking by the year, by the month, every single day. Now, I'm not saying this and feeling any kind of way about it. I'm saying it as a structural fact, as a data point for you to consider about your in your evaluation of the real situation that you're in.

[00:24:07]White Americans are a demographically contracting minority globally and they are attached to an economically contracting empire which is the building that you're in. That's the building that you are in. That's the project that you are being asked to attach yourself and your children and your grandchildren's future to. And I'm asking you or I'm asking you to ask yourself, what does American citizenship actually mean in 2026 structurally? Okay. If you're African-American, I've said this before, if you're African-American, American citizenship means accepting marginalized status inside a country that is itself becoming marginalized, becoming a marginalized fragment of humanity. Do you understand me? It's a minority position two times over, twice over.

[00:24:54]You're a minority within a population that is itself becoming a minority of a contracting empire. That's the deal that's being offered to you wi with with Americanism by both parties that their deal is stay loyal to this declining project, accept your subordinate position inside this declining project, perform a a civic ritual every two years, every four years, and in exchange for that, we will give you some level of cultural recognition and maybe occasionally some symbolic concession that you can celebrate about. That's the deal that we that's on the table. That's what it is.

[00:25:27]Well, your grandmother didn't march for that deal. Nobody marches for a deal like that. That's the kind of a deal that you march against. You understand me? No, you need to reframe. You need to reframe what her principles look like in 2026. Dignity, representation, uh, citizenship, participation, right? So, what do those words mean now, today, when you take them seriously and you apply them to the world as it actually is in this day and age today?

[00:25:56]Dignity, for example, in my opinion, dignity should mean refusing to let yourself be defined by your relationship or your connection to a contracting empire that never planned to make you a full participant in the first place. It means seeing yourself in your actual scale. In other words, as part of a global black and brown majority of humanity, not as a domestic minority pleading for inclusion in a shrinking minority's house. And representation, in my opinion, should mean, real representation should mean having a presence at those layers of power that actually decide things, that actually decide things. Not the political layer.

[00:26:39]The political layer that pretends to be making uh decisions that are actually being dictated to them by the private sector. No, the ownership layer. I'm talking about the ownership layer, the institution building layer, the capital formation layer. You understand? Subhan Allah. Black America has produced extraordinary cultural and intellectual capital for over a hundred years. and they have watched endlessly other people accumulate the financial returns from that capital that cultural creative capital. So the question is whether or not you're going to spend the next hundred years, your children, your grandchildren, your great-grandchildren are going to spend the next 100 years uh trying to demand inclusion in someone else's structures rather than building your own structures with international partners. international partners who are not contracting like the American Empire is, but who are expanding.

[00:27:32]Citizenship should mean full standing in a project that's worth being a citizen of. You understand me? The question isn't whether or not you are a good American or you can be a good American or be accepted as a good American. The question is whether America itself is even a good project to belong to in the first place. whether it's a project whose current trajectory even deserves your moral or political loyalty. You understand? These are questions you are allowed to ask. By the way, you're allowed to ask that. Your grandmother asked much more difficult questions than that.

[00:28:04]Participation means action that actually moves the world, that actually has consequences in the real world. And voting in a system where black support actually decreases the chance of legislation passing. That's not participation. That's pacification. It's pacification. Real participation is organizing material power, real power, building institutions, forming relationships across the global south, across the world, where black Americans have natural civilizational kin. In Africa, the African continent, subhan Allah, the African continent is roughly 1.4 billion people, and they're projected to be one in four of every human being on the face of the earth by the year 2050. And then you add to that the black diaspora globally, that's hundreds of millions more people. No, African-Americans, you are not a a domestic American minority. Your people are a global supermajority of the world's future. And the framing that has trapped you inside a perpetual harm reduction calculation.

[00:29:06]This, in my opinion, is the greatest scam that was ever committed against you that you fell for. So when you stand at that ballot box and you tell yourself that you are honoring your grandmother by casting your vote, no, I'm sorry.

[00:29:20]What you're doing actually in that voting booth is accepting a role. You're accepting a role. And your role is to stay small, stay domestic, stay inside the framework. You understand? Stay loyal to this uh uh dissolving empire that has never ever one time repaid your loyalty. Not once. Your grandmother didn't march for that role. She marched against a role like that. In my opinion, the question for you is whether you have the imagination, the political imagination in 2026 to march against that again, to march against that role again. Not by your voting, but by recognizing that the building that you have been trying to gain full citizenship in, full recognition inside of, that building is falling apart in chunks. And the people who actually own that building are not even on the ballot to begin with. And the people who own that building are in fact themselves the ones who are demolishing that building while you're stuck inside of it. Please understand me. Meanwhile, they the owners of that building, they are the ones who are building relationships with the global south. They're jumping ship.

[00:30:22]I'm telling you, they ran that ship.

[00:30:24]America, they ran that ship into an iceberg. And now they're asking you to vote on what the band should play while you sink. That's all your voting is. And one more thing. I want to say one more thing because she said something. She said something that needs to be addressed. She said, "Uh, don't tell me about some Islamic uh some Islamic civilization 100 years from now." As if Islamic civilization is a fantasy I'm talking about. It's like it's a future project that I'm asking her to wait for while her son needs medication, while her daughter needs education, needs books, and whatnot.

[00:30:58]Again, you've been lied to about that.

[00:31:01]You've been lied to about that. Islamic civilization isn't approaching.

[00:31:06]Islamic civilization isn't uh pending.

[00:31:09]Islamic civilization is not a dream that I'm talking about like Dr. King's dream about America.

[00:31:15]Okay. First of all, let me just say with regards to that I have a dream speech when Martin Luther King called racial uh equality, racial equality uh and the abandonment of white supremacy. When he said that was a dream in America, I think a lot of people missed what he was saying. You think it's a very beautiful statement that he said, but that was the most prosecutorial statement that he ever made. That was an indictment. That was a scathing indictment. He was literally saying that everything America claims about itself has never been anything but a hallucination. Nothing but a mirage. But Islamic civilization, alhamdulillah, Islamic civilization is not a dream. It's not a mirage. Islamic civilization is 1,400 years old. And it's here right now. It's here right now in 2026. And it hasn't stopped existing for one single day since the prophet sallallah.aii wasallam walked out of the cave of ha. It's been here uninterrupted ever since. Understand me because this reveals something. This reveals something that the empire has done to all of us. Mis miseducated all of us, Muslim and non-Muslim. The empire has trained you to believe that civilization equals state. You understand that civilization is a country. Uh it's an empire. It's a capital city. It's a treasury. it's an army or what have you.

[00:32:30]So if uh constant uh Constantinople is gone, if Baghdad has fallen, if the Khilafa was abolished in 1924, then the civilization must be gone too. That's not what civilization is.

[00:32:43]>> Hello brothers and sisters, welcome back to the channel. I'm hoping that you are doing great from wherever you're watching this video from. Now you understand that we need to break the chain. Black people need to break to break the chain and the chain is performing the ritual when we know very well that whatever people are doing it's not for the real cause like the real really real really real really real really real really real really real really real really real really real really real really real real cause because they keep you on a loop but they continue doing what they're doing because let's ask um one of the biggest question that I think we should ask ourselves is when you talk about the age gap not the age gap but the wealth gap in the United States between white people and black people and I usually say There are two different realities when we when it comes to the United States or when it comes to the lived um realities of America. The first one is wealth gap between white people and black people. There is enamus huge wealth gap between black Americans and white Americans. And if you think that um the the wealth gap's going to narrow down, it's not going to narrow down because they keep black people in a loop, but they continue uh the oligarchs, uh the vanguards, all these people that own the 90% of the Americas, they keep on benefiting while black people go on the streets, do everything that doesn't really benefit them. So um according to Shahid Bolson the wealth gap for the black community in the United States has not changed for the better as the result of political participation.

[00:34:14]He cites federal reserve data from 2025 showing that this gap has remained essential, stagnant or frozen for the last 40 years and points out that the home ownership gap between black and white Americans actually widened from 26 point in 1960 to 30 points in 2020.

[00:34:36]Balsson also argues that the voting process has not narrowed these gaps and that the current system structures continue to produce the same disparities regardless um of which political parties hold office. You get to understand whether Republican or whether Democrat all these folks serve the same person irregardless of the political class that you decide to go in. All these people serve the same same type of agenda.

[00:35:11]Um you know at times rich is when people just want to get to know uh the reality of the thing right because shade bolson says that voting participation it's like a ritual people are just participating in the ritual uh shade bolson argues that voting has became a ritual uh pacification rather than a mechanism for power. Um because one he talks about the myth of representation. Uh Bolson contends that black Americans were promised that voting will provide a voice and dignity. But he argues this fallacy because historical gains such as the civil rights and voting acts were achieved through mass disruption and direct action. Uh for example, Selma and the Biringham by people who did not yet have the franchise.

[00:36:08]not through the act of voting itself. Um also another thing that he talks about uh the ritual of pacification is that we have something to talk about the negative representation.

[00:36:18]uh referencing studies by Nicholas uh Stephano Polas, the speaker claims that in the US political system, high levels of support for policy from black voters actually correlates with a decreased likelihood of a policy being passed, suggesting that black endorsement can be detrimental to legislative outcomes.

[00:36:43]Right. Talk about the oligarchy structure. Um yeah there is a sense of oligarchi structure because we have people that owns and controls important things in America and they appoint politicians whether from the democratic whether from the republicans to help with this.

[00:37:08]So they do what we call middle management. They manage, but the real the big dogs, the vanguards, um um um um the Black Rockck, the Wall Street, all these people own and control and they decide the policies and how things are going to go and how things are going to work.

[00:37:29]Um the ritual of pacification has led to what we call the stagnant outcomes. Uh Bolson points to persistent disparities that have not improved despite high uh despite of high voter turnout in the black community, including a stagnant wealth gap, widening ownership gaps, and high rates of mass incarnation. All this facilitated by policies from major political parties.

[00:37:57]So all these things focuses on domestic marginalization.

[00:38:01]Bolson argues that by trapping the black community in a cycle of arm reduction calculation within the declining American empire, the voting process keeps people focused on domestic minority status rather than building global institution or forming relationships with the expanding global south.

[00:38:22]So brothers and sisters, please let me know what you all think about this. As you know, I'm your host and preent stories. But until then, I'm hoping to see you on my next video. Until then, peace, love, and harmony.

[00:38:38]Salute.
