You claim you analyzed the impact of it in black communities. Well I lived in black communities so again I know way more about this than you. I saw the impact, I didn’t analyze it. For your information rev sharpton is a very respecte in the black community here. Goodness gracious you have no idea the amount of respect ppl hv for him. I’m on ground here and your analyzing through books and media huge difference. First hand experience beats all thebosstrevor1: 2 Likes |

awulio: Now you are just coming to terms with the reality You said you want to teach the dude American history, but you ended up talking only about Joe Biden and what you feel he has done to deserve his win (cool) But then, you are accusing him of reading from bias outlets........ But don’t you think for your American history to be tilted towards just The liberals, it portends your bias also and if he accepts it, it means he’s learning from your own personal shaping of the political landscape over there which is based on Democratic ideologies 2 Likes |

awulio: I have experienced racism first hand, but it is not the object of our discussion. Please re-read and assimilate my submission you responded to. If your submission is American racism, then you are right. I am sufficiently informed in these matters. I think you and I are arguing in the same lines, but you want to push the "living in the States" narrative to elucidate your point. My argument is hire people because they are qualified, not because they are black or white. Since you live in the States, can you educate me on the origin of the term "people of colour"? While at it, please read these two articles and be informed on how people outside the United States view this connotation. https://www.independent.co.uk/voices/black-women-people-colour-racism-beyonce-coachella-black-lives-matter-a8316561.html https://ottawacitizen.com/opinion/adam-why-the-term-people-of-colour-is-offensive-to-so-many Those two articles highlight people's discomfort in accepting the appellation. Of course, you are free to accept it. 2 Likes |

awulio: As long as America interfere with Nigeria and as long as america is the world power, everybody has the right to know about their political stands. You don't have to live in America to understand America politics. So how do you think international politics and relations works? Also, People of colour do not have to work hard as whites to gain a promotion, if you are good, you will gain it, stop blaming racism 1 Like 2 Shares |

awulio:I live in Ogbomosho but if an error in taxes that has brought about taxcut of over $100 in a monthly paycheck which will be over $50 when calculated biweekly for over a year now then the IRS must have been full of dummies. I tell you again. Stop watching too much news and stop relying on Google for simple answers since you live and work in the States. Also, the significance of tax cut will largely depend on the amount in the paycheck. 2 Likes |

Y definitely watch Fox News because what you stated has been proven untrue... Biden lived in Scranton Pennsylvania until he was 12 and left when his father lost his job in the coal mines. He grew up poor. Then his family moved to Delaware. thebosstrevor1: 1 Like |

awulio:Another lie. Democrats have kept more black people in "projects" which basically means modified jails and guess what, they are innocent blacks and not convicted criminals that the Republicans sent to jails. It's also on record that Democrats have deported more immigrants than Republicans. ICE under Obama deported more immigrants and separated more families than under Trump but no one talks about it today. 3 Likes |

awulio: You need to differentiate my words from yours I don't watch fox news. What is the difference with what i wrote and what you wrote. Biden didnt move to Delaware because he loved black people. His family moved to Delaware when he was 12 years to find opportunities. 1 Like |

J111333: Asked her who created the high rise of single mother homes in America and welfare systems Didnt Democrats brought about one rules that says if a father is at home, the family can't receive welfare, this brought about the disintegration of the black family. The Democrats were arresting black fathers and stopping them from visiting their children whose mothers was on welfare 1 Like 1 Share |

I know how people outside of the states view the connotation but this is American and we habillé accept the term just like South Africans call mixed ppl coloreds and it’s offensive to the world but it’s a sense of pride to South Africans.. every country has terms that they use that may be offensive to someone from another country but when you in that country you need to use the right terms.

Again you don’t live in America so you have no idea about race relations sure you can have an opinion about politics but your opinion does not matter to us here. But you can never have an opinion about race until you live here. You comment based on movies .

awulio: They did except you earn very low. This is how it works. top rate fell from 39.6% to 37%, while the 33% bracket dropped to 32%, the 28% bracket to 24%, the 25% bracket to 22%, and the 15% bracket to 12% The lowest bracket remained at 10%, and the 35% bracket was also unchanged. If you earn from $0 to $9,700, your tax doesn't change, it is still 10% |
