This video incisively positions the Black experience as the true moral anchor of a nation struggling to reconcile its ideals with its history. It is a sharp, necessary reminder that American progress has always relied on the resilience of those it most consistently marginalized.

White people are TIRED pretending| They finally CONFESS Blacks are the Moral Voice of American hist.Added:
black Americans, my gorgeous black men and women in America, I just want to say you guys are so [ __ ] resilient.
It's so shameful how dishonest our history books are about what happened in this country, what happened to black Americans, how we treated people, and how this country came to be. It is so shameful. I finally am reading the 1619 project. I've had it on my bookshelf for like a couple years and I read a ton and finally I got into it and it just the fact that when we wrote our constitution, when white men wrote our constitution and had the audacity to say that men are created equal, all men are created equal. While those same people writing those lines owned human beings, enslaved human beings.
The hypocrisy is just [ __ ] astounding. The way that these people are framed as heroes despite the grotesque abuses that they committed. I'm just It is so It is like insane and disgusting.
And the fact that black Americans, even though they were not they were treated like I don't there's no word. There's no word. It's not they weren't treated like animals. They were treated they were just absolutely [ __ ] tortured for so long. And the fact that they believed they believed in the ideals that were written in that constitution despite how they were treated for so long and that they fought for this country to live up to those ideals. This country would not be anything. This country wouldn't be [ __ ] [ __ ] without black Americans fighting nonstop for centuries, for generations for equality. And we're not there. We're not even We're not even close. We're not there. Black Americans actually believe in democracy. They actually believe in equality. They actually believe in freedom. I just have to say it's remarkable.
And black Americans are so strong. It's incredible. It is incredible how strong you guys are. I'm sorry I'm crying. Just thinking about it all is just insane to me. What what generations of black Americans have been through and what they continue to go through and the gaslighting is just crazy.
At the beginning of the 1619 project, the author wrote that if we would only be honest about the history of this country, then we might have the opportunity to live up to the ideals that we claim are the foundation of our society. And we'll never live up to those ideals until we are honest about our history. And I just agree with that so much. I just agree with that so much.
I don't understand what everybody's so afraid of. Why are people so afraid to tell the truth about our history, about white supremacy, about whiteness?
If this country ever wants to live up to the ideals that it claims it stands by, then we've got to tell the truth. I love my black Americans and I totally understand totally understand the anger and the helplessness and the frustration and just anything and everything y'all feel like I totally understand. I don't understand from personal experience obviously, but I understand just thinking about it, conceptualizing it, considering what you guys have been through for so long and how that would make me feel.
Anyways, if anybody has any more book recommendations written by black Americans talking about the real honest history of America, talking about racism, talking about feminism, just honestly fantasy books, fiction novels, anything written by black Americans, I want to consume as much as possible. Of course, I'm going to go look stuff up on my own. And I have lots of books on my bookshelf already. But, um, just if anything's ever, you know, really landed with anybody watching this that they would consider like mandatory reading, please let me know cuz I will jump on it immediately.
My first grade teacher, Mrs. Curran, came into the classroom and told us that John F. Kennedy, our president, that everyone was so proud of, had been killed.
We couldn't believe our teacher was crying, but everybody cried that week.
I was part of the first generation to have all of the news fed TV in our living rooms. So, we saw the marches under threat from police. We saw the fire hoses slamming the bodies against the walls.
But there were very few black people in our town. So, I didn't see these white on black atrocities firsthand. I was an impressionable child of about 11 when Martin Luther King was murdered.
I was raised to believe that white people were the good guys, so none of this added up. Why were white people doing such bad stuff? I saw them sick attack dogs on black people in the streets, throw them in jail, hang them from trees for God's sake. Although mom tried to protect us from that, but it was there. It was in the world. It was around us. People marched through a gauntlet of policemen with clubs.
Weren't the police supposed to be there to protect people?
Many years later, I became friends with Reverend Dwight Brown. He was a white Unitarian Universalist minister who marched with Dr. King at Selma. He told me about walking beside a woman whose arm had been broken the day before by the police.
This brave woman insisted on marching at Selma. Anyway, and I'm sorry that I don't remember her name.
He and another man flanked her the whole way to protect her from the police that were standing there with clubs. So, there were a few good white men, but why so few? I had been fed all the right moral messages, red and yellow, black and white, Jesus. You know, it wasn't until my family moved to New Orleans at age 13 that the contradictions in what people said and what people did became really clear. I had been fed all the right moral verbal messages, but I hadn't seen the wrongs up close. So, I believed what I was told until these questions turned into gigantic red flags. Here's the message white people were told.
Rich and powerful people are the real good guys. They do the heavy lifting in our culture. Now, nobody said that outright to us. They just showed us you're supposed to think the rich and powerful are cool and to fawn over them.
Ordinary white people are part of the powerful team. But we don't have to do anything. We can leave that up to the rich people. All we have to do is be comfortable.
And the thing that makes us most uncomfortable is how all these black people and immigrants and indigenous people keep messing things up for us in our close personal rich people who care so much about us. We would be so much better off, we were told, so much more comfortable if not for them. So, white people vote for the interests of the rich and powerful without noticing how their real interests are actually being trashed by the rich and powerful.
The civil rights movement made legal changes possible, but it also triggered deep resentment. Every step forward for black Americans was treated as a loss by white Americans. And that resentment never went away. It always went back to the same thing. Powerful people convincing the white masses that they're on the same team and then pointing the finger of blame at black people, at indigenous people, at women, at gay people, anyone who also had no power and could be scapegoed. That is the history and the foundation of America.
Nixon used law and order to signal which side he was on. Black people were just lawb breakakers. Reagan targeted black mothers with that welfare queen myth while at the same time convincing white folks that trickle down economics would help them. It never did. It can't. It cannot work. Bush flooded black communities with those crack era drug crackdown policies.
and each generation of reframing reality added to the myth of white superiority in the minds of white people. So what I'm saying here is that white people are the ones that have been snowed through all of this. Turn said all that out loud and millions of white people in the United States were ready to hear him. They cheered as our country crumbled under the weight of centuries of smoke and mirrors.
White people deserve to be comfortable.
People of color cause all our problems.
And none of that is true. One share shows you care about setting the record straight. Next time, get curious. We'll talk about the Equal Rights Amendment, the Vietnam War, and how protesting itself became the enemy in the eyes of those who wanted more control.
Have a good one.
>> Well, god damn it. You know what I'm already sick of? It's people saying finally some action because those protests didn't do [ __ ] If 8 million people showing up to protest didn't mean anything, then why did all the major news organizations make sure that you didn't see it? Cuz here's the thing, people, your opponent is never going to tell you that your strategy is working.
But they don't have to because they will tell you with what they do because the major news networks aren't suppressing the footage of the protests for no reason because they don't want you to know that what you're doing is effective.
They need to promote the narrative that protesting doesn't do anything. When in reality, every person who has set a warehouse fire or thrown a brick understands that they have at least 8 million marchers on their side.
Don't tell me that's meaningless.
It's not.
It's just in their best interest that you think it's meaningless.
>> Boy, I started smiling so big when I saw this woke Asian female spit nothing but heat. I just want to say thank you. She hit the nail right on the head.
>> For all the racist [ __ ] that keep saying they have black fatigue, I think it's time we set the record straight.
You don't have black fatigue, you have history fatigue. You're tired of being reminded that black people didn't just participate in the world. They were a huge part in shaping it. Every race and every culture has benefited from the sacrifices that black people have made.
The civil rights movement didn't just open doors for black Americans. It expanded freedoms for everyone. And the shameful part is black people hardly if ever get the credit for it. Black people aren't just in music and sports. You guys need to get out more. Okay? Black people are doctors, lawyers, pilots, judges, engineers, educators, innovators, and the list goes on. They hold up systems that people rely on daily while pretending that contribution doesn't exist. And no, this isn't pandering. This is lived experience. I grew up in an all-white neighborhood with very few black people and no other Asians. And at that time, the only culture that accepted me without question was the black culture. So when people talk about a world without black people, they expose how very little they understand about the world they already live in. Without black people, you don't get a world with less noise. You get a world with less creativity, less freedom, less culture, and less progress. If that truth exhausts you, it's not fatigue. It's discomfort with knowing how much you benefit from this world without acknowledging the source.
>> Happy Black History Month.
>> But the No King's Protest is just performative. it's not actually going to do anything. No, no, that's not entirely true. And I'll give you that. Yes, it is performative, but the reason to do performative things is to get attention.
The way that dictators rise into power is they need the general public to believe that they have no power and that they shouldn't bother organizing because it's useless and they don't have any power to make change. They want us to believe we're all alone in our little bubbles. we have no community and that we can't organize. But that's not true.
This protest is shaping up to be one of the largest nationwide protests in American history. And that is powerful.
That shows everyone, even if you're in a little blue dot in a hugely red state, might not be as red as you think. When you get to your downtown and it's full of people that feel the same way that you do, or even if they don't feel exactly the same way you do, you found common ground. That's powerful. We are here to show the government that we aren't just going to comply simply because you're telling us that we should and that our voice deserves to be heard and everybody that's in Congress works for us. So don't let the naysayers get into your head. This is going to be a powerful weekend. Is there going to be more work to be done? Sure. But this is the snowball effect. This is how it starts. This is how change begins. This is how we organize. I will not back down from this and turn away to ask hardworking Virginiaians to shoulder more of the cost when they are being pitched at the gas pump and at stores daily. The wealthiest corporations in the world should pay their fair share just like small businesses and hardwork Virginiaians do every day. If don't start nothing won't be nothing was a person, then Virginia's state senator El Louise Lucas would be it. And if you've never heard of her, you are in for a treat. El Louise Lucas is the most powerful black woman in Virginia politics. Not loud for show, not performative, strategic, blunt, clear about exactly what time it is. And right now, she is at the center of the fight that could shift control of the United States House of Representatives.
Virginia just voted to redraw its congressional map. And that map could push the state toward overwhelming Democratic control, which means it could help decide who controls Congress following the midterms. So naturally, Republicans are out there.
>> The same Republicans who have been aggressively gerrymandering states like Texas because Trump wants to secure more seats and lock in his own power. But now it's unfair. Back in February, when this fight was heating up, Senator Lucas got on X and said exactly what needed to be said, and I quote, "You all started it and we finished it." Directed straight at Ted Cruz. No polish, no filter, no apology because Lucas is not interested in pretending this system is something it is not. She said it plainly, "Y'all built this game. Now you mad. We know how to play it, too." And that's what this moment is really all about, y'all.
Power. For years, black voters have been packed, stacked, and carved up to dilute our political influence. That was by design. But now, a black woman is sitting at the table with a pen in her hand, changing outcomes. and Republicans do not like it.
>> Redefine reason all of these red states are rushing to redistrict. It's because of this. Y'all remember us, the 92%.
That's why they're rushing to the front, rushing to be the first ones to completely redistrate. Like in Tennessee, we're the only black congressional district. Y'all have seen me pull this out a million times. This is the fifth or sixth copy I have is because these numbers aren't to be trifled with. They're not to be played with all the rest of y'all. These other demographic groups, they see that y'all can be manipulated. It can all be controlled through fear, through dangling that carrot of proximity to whiteness, right? And the American dream, not us. They see how dedicated we are. They know they're about to be cooked in the midterms. And what they're trying to do is kneecap the Democratic party. It's very simple. We really got a problem. The Ni Chief Assembly have a problem with us. They can't have black women in leaders have more integrity. We see value in and feel good about being accountable to our community and to the people that we represent voting the way we do. We take a great deal of pride in it. We can't be controlled. We can't be remote controlled. And the GOP can't stand that. So they can't have us in.
That's why they're harassing and weaponizing the FBI to trump up charges on state senator Lucas. Want to keep us afraid. Want to try to intimidate us cuz they know they don't care for the midterms. That's why this is happening.
Just in case anyone was wondering, and this has been your moment of truth and clarity from black women of the 90%.
>> I'm often asked the question, why do you care about injustices perpetuated against black people in America? And why do you speak and write about these issues so frequently? My answer is that we would all do well to care about what happens to our fellow citizens because what happens to one impacts the lives of all of us eventually. Certainly, black people don't need me to address these issues as there are far more competent leaders and voices within the black community that do a far better job. But I need to speak up for my own sake. I need to speak up and continue to address the residual racism that hinders my heart from the compassion and empathy that is necessary in our world. If the United States of America is my home, which it is, and I love my nation, then I know that we can all do better in understanding one another. To this end, I continue to write and speak out about these issues. Racism and discrimination are deeply ingrained issues in America and the mistreatment of black people is a critical issue that needs to be addressed by everyone, not just black individuals or communities. It is imperative for white people to care about the mistreatment of black people in America for several reasons. First of all, recognizing the mistreatment of black people is a fundamental step towards combating racism and creating a more equitable and just society. Racism and discrimination have a profound impact on the lives of black individuals, causing them to experience numerous disadvantages, including lower economic opportunities, unequal treatment in the criminal justice system, and reduced access to quality health care. By acknowledging the existence of these disparities and the systemic factors that contribute to them, white people can help to create the conditions necessary to dismantle racism and discrimination.
Addressing the mistreatment of black people is not only a moral obligation but a civic responsibility. As citizens, it is our responsibility to work towards creating a society that is equitable, just and inclusive. This requires recognizing and combating the systemic factors that contribute to the mistreatment of black people. By ignoring this issue, white people are not fulfilling their civic responsibilities and are perpetuating the harm that is inflicted on black individuals. As we have witnessed with the murder of George Floyd and most recently the beating death of Tyrie Nichols, the mistreatment of black people impacts all members of society regardless of race. Racism and discrimination undermine the fabric of society by dividing communities and promoting mistrust and hatred. When black individuals are mistreated, it creates an environment in which fear, mistrust, and hatred can flourish, eroding the social cohesion that is necessary for a healthy and thriving society. This has an impact on everyone regardless of race. The mistreatment of black people is an issue that has deep roots in American society. From slavery to segregation and the ongoing impact of systemic racism, the mistreatment of black people is not a new issue. By acknowledging the history of racism and discrimination in America, white people can understand the root causes of these current disparities experienced by black people and take the necessary steps to address them. This is why I speak up.
Won't you join?
>> No. Obama was not a perfect president.
But you know what? He never ever.
He never godamn embarrassed me. cool, calm, collected, poised, educated, intelligent, like I miss my >> Okay, I know the last thing the internet needs is another white woman crying, but let me tell you, um I just rewatched um Becoming Michelle Obama's documentary, and god damn, I just miss the Obama so much.
I just miss them.
And I miss feeling a hope.
I miss feeling hopeful.
And I know it's an excellent reminder that there is hope still and that we are stronger together.
But god damn, I [ __ ] miss the Obamas.
[ __ ] All right. I just watched a fairly long video of Barack Obama and mom Donnie with those kids. Um, red nose been blown my nose. It made me cry unexpectedly.
Um, first of all, those videos are circulating. Please watch them. They are delightful and pure. They're so pure.
And Barack Obama and Mum Donnie are so good with the kids. And the kids are so adorable. And the best thing about kids is that they don't care about famous people. And they say whatever they want and it's perfect. And because Barack Obama and mom Donnie aren't malignant narcissists like our president, they laughed and thought the kids were adorable and hilarious.
And I was just thinking like I saw a clip of Trump on Easter talking to kids.
Uh which I think he shouldn't be around to any children ever by the way. Um, and the clip I saw was of him asking them uh some form of, this is paraphrasing, but do you guys know anyone who voted for Kla Harris? Cuz that was a really bad idea to like fiveyear-olds because of course that's what he did.
And he had the Easter Bunny standing behind him.
Anyway, this video made me cry because a I have forgotten what it is like to have leadership that behaves like Barack and mom Donnie did in this video with children. This was a child care center in the Bronx. It was so precious and so funny and so sweet and it was how leaders should behave in situations like that.
And I miss that. There's like a huge hole.
Anyway, if you see the videos, you need to watch them because they will make you feel good. I mean, also sad because we don't have that right now um uh in the president, but and his entire cabinet. But anyway, they are heartwarming and wonderful.
I just watched a Tik Tok real of just like a montage of Obama being nice and I cried because there's like 20 clips of him just being cute with kids like coming in into into Chicago to some school calling himself Skddy Santa and giving out presents. him meeting this little Superman and he falls down. He's like, "Oh my god, you're so strong." Do we have that with our current president?
I feel like every clip I see of him is just showing off something that he's working on the ballroom and now clean cleaning some pool that doesn't need to be cleaned. Uh why why >> 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. as you know ham your o and pre zent stories now there's something that is currently going on and I think there is uh realization that is going on especially amongst white people when they get to um when they get to look at the type of leadership that they are currently having and um trying to compare it with what Barack Obama gave them the foundation that Barack Obama built this is a legacy that no one has ever dared break. It is a legacy that will still leave with Americans. We are going to see white Americans confessing how they miss Barack Obama and how they need black leadership especially after testing the regime of Barack Obama.
People came to realize that Barack Obama did a lot for Americans and he was just a human being outside being the president of the United States.
Honestly, as a person, I saw those clips where Obama did some things that touched the hearts of Americans.
He was a person who was outspoken. He was a person with no ego. He was a person that wanted good for everyone.
But because of racism, people voted for Mr. Donald Trump. Yeah, I know Donald Trump wasn't running against Barack Obama, but he was running against Kamala Ar. Now, there's so many times that um white Americans have been given a chance to run the United States.
People have succumbed the same problem.
But something was different when it was the President Barack Obama, the president of the United States. when he was in the president, you could definitely see how he solved geopolitical issues amicably, especially its case with Iran, Iraq, and all these other geopolitical factors that happened and how we all get to see how they happened. We saw the way Barack Obama solved problems. We saw the way Barack Obama solved issues. And indeed, I think it's safe to say that Barack Obama was a better a better even much more better president and the services that he's offering even much more better than what Trump is offering. So brothers and sisters, what you're going to see in this video, we are going to see white people coming out explaining how they miss Barack Obama, explaining how they are having an nostalgia on how Barack Obama used to run things, how Barack Obama was a perfect president for America and how they still miss him even right now.
This is something that they are seeing after making a wrong decision. But brothers and sisters, let's watch the video and then I'll be back. I'll be offering my two cents in regards to this. And for those who are watching me for the first time, you know, I'm your host and pre zentai stories. So let's let's watch the video. I'll be back with my thoughts and commentaries in regards to this.
>> I feel like my grandpa back in my day, we had a president that cared about people. See, y'all should have never y'all should have never gave me the confidence. I mean, here we go. Third video of the day. I just wanted to say me and my co-workers, some of my co-work [ __ ] the Democrat versus that man knew how to address people, knew how to pronounce things, knew how to, you know, articulate himself in a professional presidential manner. And I just wanted to tell y'all we miss Obama. This [ __ ] sad. Really, it feels like, y'all know what it feels like. It's crazy out here. Let me know if y'all miss Obama. I know y'all do.
>> Miss Obama so much. We were We had it so good. Was Obama the perfect president?
No, not by any means. Each president has had their faults. But Jesus Christ, I grew up with Obama in office. Okay, Obama was in office from 2008 to 2016.
That's my entire like teen life. Okay, y'all ever seen The Crown? You know that moment on one of the first few episodes of season one in the crown after the king dies and uh Winston Churchill is giving his uh basically like his speech over the ring. There's a part where he talks about growing up in the august summers of Queen Victoria and I'm just like you know what that's how I feel about Obama right now. It was a beautiful time. I was still able to go back and forth from Mexico. Getting a passport was $25. Gas was like $250 maybe $3 sometimes. I'll admit gas was expensive. I'm not going to lie, but Lord, everything else wasn't. At that time, ramen was less than 25. I know I said I wanted to grow up, but but I'm tired of this, grandpa, and I know it's too damn bad, but >> I did not appreciate the Barack Obama presidency enough between the ages of seven and 15 because God, I miss Obama.
I just miss like having a normal dude in the White House. Like even if you disagreed with his politics, you could understand that he was an upstanding person and a good guy. At the same time, he had this impenetrable, unrelenting aura around him. Yeah, he was the commanderin-chief sometimes, but other times he was just Barack.
Re-watching a lot of old clips, I miss when presidents were just normal people.
Do you want to know what I miss equally as much as the Barack Obama presidency?
Michelle Obama in the White House. God, dude, I miss Michelle. Like, the first ladies, as far as I know, are not obligated to actually do anything, but every first lady before Melania was doing [ __ ] But Michelle, she was doing the most. She was catching heat from some of the most far-right politicians out there because she said kids should eat healthier meals. Now, we haven't had a baddy in the White House since 2016, and it absolutely shows. What the hell has Melania Trump actually done? For real, though. Every time she's on camera and she speaks, it looks like it's painful for her to do so. Michelle here was out on IC Carly and doing promos for the Penguins of Madagascar like a regular person. Meanwhile, Melania can't even say the word pickles. It's weird.
Even if they weren't in politics, Barack and Michelle would be such a power couple, man. They both have this nononsense swagger and aura about them, but at the same time, they're just so fun. I miss having them around.
Come home, Obama. The babysitter is weird.
>> I genuinely miss Obama being president.
I miss Obama being president. He was the first president that I ever voted for. I am going to be 33 years old this year.
So, um I think I was 18 or 19 >> for his second term. Anyways, I digress.
I just wanted to give you guys a list of things. Okay, I know you guys like to think Trump is just like the greatest thing that happened to the United States since sliced bread, but you can never sit and explain, you know, fact by fact about what makes him great. So, I did a little list of things that collectively affect United States citizens good, well, whatever you want to call it.
Number one, in 2009, Barack Obama did the American Recover Act. This was what he did to pull the United States out of an 8-year long recession caused by George W. Bush.
Okay, moving on. He also signed the Paris climate agreement, meaning he was the first president to do something actively to address and combat climate change. I know you guys don't believe in science, but we're going to clap anyway because it's real. Um he is widely accredited for ending the war in Iraq, the war that we shouldn't have been in in the first place, but George Bush is a wararmonger.
Um also Barack Obama signed the Affordable Healthcare Act. This gave insurance access to millions of Americans and it also meant that children under the age of whenever they turned 18, they weren't automatically cooked off their parents' insurance.
They were able to stay on till they were 26, which makes a huge difference for college age children, right? Um, oh, student loan reform. Barack Obama increased the amount of PEL grant that a lot of people literally need and have to have to go to college. He also signed in where whenever you
