Kamala Harris – Self Equanimity http://selfequanimity.com Current Affairs Sun, 05 Feb 2023 14:49:05 +0000 en-US hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.5.4 https://i0.wp.com/selfequanimity.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/SE-Copy.png?fit=32%2C32 Kamala Harris – Self Equanimity http://selfequanimity.com 32 32 176655959 Welcome to Black History Month! http://selfequanimity.com/welcome-to-black-history-month/ Sun, 05 Feb 2023 01:00:16 +0000 https://selfequanimity.com/?p=1964 What a great start to black history month, We couldn’t ask for anything better.  WOW, we started Black history month with a bang.  There was a big church funeral/service. Our beloved civil rights leader Al Sharpton, gave the Eulogy, Eric Garner, George Floyd, and Breonna Taylor’s families were invited, and Kamala Harris decided she was black that day.  Hmmmmmm It was almost like a celebration of some sort.

Let’s remember Rev Al is the same one who didn’t know Trump was racist until he became President.

Trump and Al Sharpton

You couldn’t ask for a perfect start to black history month, This whole event was perfectly put together to the point where one has to wonder if this whole thing was a celebration or a political event of some sort.

Al Sharpton &  Kamala Harris

It might sound crazy but it seems to me that we only identify ourselves through misery and pain. Almost as if we only identify blackness with pain, after all, misery does love company.  Make no mistake I’m not justifying what happened, in no way will any sane person do that, but we cannot say the end justifies the means in this case. What we do know is someone is going to get a big payout at the end, we just don’t know who yet.

Do you know what will be very interesting?  If the family had asked, all, including the politicians that this event is made private, and also the prevention of making this a political affair. Now,  that would have been a shocker to the people who attended, especially, the politicians. They didn’t Tyre Nichols, so I’m finding it hard to believe they were that sympathetic.

It is funny how Kamala Harris used the occasion to tell people that the George Floyd act should be passed as if to say that if that act had been in place,  this wouldn’t have happened, let us not forget these officers had body cams. Moreover, if this was as important to her as she makes It out to be, she should be talking to her boss, not to the family who just lost a loved one.

Tyre Nichols

May this Gentleman Rest in Peace, he didn’t have to die, and the fact that we always have to use someone’s death to make a political statement is strange, also these are people who should have been politically responsible… The funny thing is that we don’t want to be treated as disposable, hell we cry every day and every night about being treated as though we are disposable, after everything we have been through, but then we treat each other just like the way we hate to be treated!

Lift Every Voice?? How?? http://selfequanimity.com/lift-every-voice-how/ http://selfequanimity.com/lift-every-voice-how/#respond Wed, 30 Mar 2022 21:53:23 +0000 https://selfequanimity.com/?p=1755 Remember the lift every voice plan? I mean the plan Joe Biden had for Black America.. remember that ?? whatever happened to that ????? I was assured by everyone who didn’t share the same political view that Joe Biden, the one who wrote the 94 crime Bill (amongst other things) was going to put his plan into action, as soon as he got into office. Some actually said this is a way for him to make amends to the famous 94 crime bill, (which locked up a lot of black men). People were sure this was going to happen.

       Looking at the way everything is going I’m not sure this will happen it still remains to be seen.  Let’s take a look at the lift every voice plan according to what I read.

  1. Advance the economic mobility of African Americans and close racial income gaps
  2. Expand access to high-quality education and tackle racial inequity in our education system
  3. Make far-reaching investments and end health disparities by race
  4. Strengthen America’s commitment to justice
  5. Make the right to vote and the right to equal protection real for African Americans
  6. Address Environmental justice

These are only to name a few,  just reading this I know most of this is pure BS.   The man couldn’t even tackle inflation so how does he advance the mobility of African Americans and close income gaps, that will mean giving out a lot more free money which will result in inflation.

What are the far-reaching investments ??? anyone cares to elaborate????

Environmental Justice ???? why doesn’t he start with Flint Michigan?  With their water problem. This man wrote the 94 crime bill? Responsible for over-policing, and yet we expect him to somehow change all that???

At least when Trump was in office he said he was willing to look at Ice Cube’s plan, contract with black America, but Old Joe said, we need to wait till after the election, and we still supported him.

Most black people are saying to themselves, that once a racist is out of office we should be ok ,. we have good old Joe who is going to make everything ok..  as black people we are not that politically skilled to make sense of this and demand better things for ourselves, as long as we feel good about something we should be ok… The Democrats like to say hey we like black people, we gave you the first black person, first black female black (whenever she wants to be) or should I say a woman of color,  and we are about to give you the first black woman supreme court judge, we make you feel good, you should be happy. Republicans say we ain’t giving you nothing we are keeping everything for ourselves, the democrats say the same thing but they wrap it up in a “feel good” event.  We shouldn’t trust our politicians but yet we do.

     Now the main reason I wrote this piece is that I’m telling black people that they are going to tell us to wait…. why because they are bringing 100,000 Ukrainians over here, on our tax dime (don’t forget April 15th)  here is the problem with that,

  • They sent Haitians home, and they did that in style, by sending guards on horseback, people trying to escape economic oppression. Everyone said that look like slavery
  • You know the Ukrainians come first right ?????  somehow their oppression is far more important than others who just happen to belong to a different racial group of course I’m sure that is all a coincidence.

Correct me if I’m wrong but I think the reason he even chose a name like that is because of our inclination to religion!!!! , still didn’t make us stop and think and go wait a min. The fact that he called it ” The lift every voice plan” is an insult.

Ok, black people let us tell ourselves before someone else says it, 4 years is not that far ….

OOOOH the hypocrisy!! They just opened the facilities for migrant kids???? http://selfequanimity.com/ooooh-the-hypocrisy-they-just-opened-the-facilities-for-migrant-kids/ http://selfequanimity.com/ooooh-the-hypocrisy-they-just-opened-the-facilities-for-migrant-kids/#respond Wed, 24 Feb 2021 06:29:52 +0000 http://selfequanimity.com/?p=1265 This is my favorite topic simply because I know a lot of people who blamed Trump and said Trump was heartless. it’s interesting how people don’t do research at all and read history, when I say history  I don’t mean the stone age,  I mean anything from 5 to 10 to 15 years. Let us not forget that a lot of things happened in 2016 that a few people will rather forget. I remember President Trump being blamed for the Muslim ban and we had Chuck Schumer “fake” cry about it on TV. He was saying that this was mean spirited and “unamerican”,  which was very interesting since no one seems to have a problem with the previous administration’s(Obama’s government) ban on 7 Muslim nations, of course, the mainstream media made it seem like Trump did that out of the blue forgetting to mention that it was the Obama’s administration that picked those 7 countries. Those countries were  Iran, Iraq, Syria, Libya, Somalia, Yemen, Sudan. Interesting isn’t it?  but this is not about the famous Muslim ban that Trump was blamed for, this is about separating children at the border.

A lot of women ( mainly mothers) were told by the mainstream media that the heartless orange man separated children at the border, many mothers started to hate Trump and asked how he could be so heartless, Kamala Harris said “ it was wrong, and immoral and unnecessary” she went on to say that  “ it’s got to stop, full stop” she went as far as saying that the secretary of homeland security should resign. Joe Biden of course pretended he didn’t know where those cages came from. I don’t know if anyone has read the headlines but the Biden Administration has reopened a facility that held Migrant children …  I thought I was dreaming when I read this, surely they wouldn’t do this, they are the party that cares about humanity, not like Trump who hates foreigners and is a white supremacist and because of that, he locked a lot of kids in cages.

The white house actually went as far as defending this action and said it was temporary, an action that they said was deplorable, and ask that the secretary of Homeland security turn in her resignation. Will someone say hypocrisy.  The interesting thing about this one is that this is the same facility that was opened under Trump.

The Washington Post had a headline which read, “First Migrant Facility for children opens under Biden”

this was 2 days ago I believe, but a few years ago the same Washington Post was singing a different  tune,  it read “The American tradition of caging children”

Even  Time magazine had what I would call a “Human Interest” picture.

Oh the politicians had a field day with this, they kept on calling it concentration camps,  reporters kept repeating it over and over again, now everyone knows Trump as the one who separated kids at the border, the media failed to mention that, these things started under the Obama Administration.  Now, folks we got to give this to Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (AOC), I like to give credit where credit is due, and for this, she did very well, in criticizing the administration for its double standards, but of course, she couldn’t say too much. I would say she should know, she called these same “facilities” concentration camps. 

 

She then went on to say Caging kids is a for-profit enterprise,  so that means that someone is making money off these kids that are being held in the reopened “facilities”/”concentration camps”/”detention centers”.  If this for the children as they say,  and since they all accused Trump of being heartless,  she could have suggested a hotel for the children right ???  I mean at least it won’t be a detention center, and since the excuse they are giving is the pandemic, well, they can do 2 to a room.  Even the president of the US National Border Patrol Council, Brandon Judd called out the hypocrisy of the administration.

A lot of people don’t understand that certain things are more complex than they seem.  I remember candidate Obama blamed Bush for indefinite detentions and said he was going to close Guantanamo Bay,  he couldn’t do it even as a two-term president. We as a people should be sophisticated enough to look at all sides of the issue, but we don’t.  They give us trigger words and we run with them. As we are talking now, Covid deaths have gone up again, is it Trump’s fault, or Biden’s fault?? well who is president now Biden, so who do we blame????  This is sad we must do better as a people. These things are more complex than a mere executive order!

Worse President in History???? http://selfequanimity.com/worse-president-in-history/ http://selfequanimity.com/worse-president-in-history/#respond Sun, 08 Nov 2020 06:57:53 +0000 http://selfequanimity.com/?p=1064 2020 has certainly been an interesting year, dealing with shut down’s, the pandemic, among others,  but for the last 4 years we have had a very rocky presidency, the most interesting thing about all this is that people seem to forget a lot, and forget it quick to the convenience of the media, that can easily spin things around to make it look any way they want. I do remember when I ask people about  President Obama and what he has done, what is legacy is, ( Usually from black people), the answer I  usually receive is, “Oh president Obama’s hands were tied, he couldn’t do too much because he had distractions and was blocked from congress to the senate, yet the same people have conveniently overlooked the fact that over $30 Million dollars were spent for an investigation that wasn’t even true on president Trump. (Talk about tied hands huh, Mind you this is money that could have been used for better things) Today the media has projected a win for Joe Biden,  and to this day I’m amazed at how many people don’t know about his 47-year history in public office and who his friends were. Then when I tell them his record which are facts, by the way, most say Oh, he might have changed, etc, so then I ask, is it hate for Trump or love for Biden, which is it? because I cannot believe that people can be so forgiving,  there are people in prison right now who were put there because of the 1994 crime Bill, even his own Vice president (ELECT) had a problem with him and his history of hanging out with white supremacists. Mind you these were known White supremacists. Some of who freely used the N-Word on TV and some of who he eulogized.  Some of these people are,

John C Stennis,

George Wallace,

Herman Talmage,

James Eastland,

Jesse Helms,

Robert Byrd,

Strom Thurmond

 Very interesting to note that, though Donald Trump has said a few things that may seem to be racist, we have undeniable proof that Joe Biden actually hangs out with racist and actually worked on a few bills with them these bills goes against the interest of Black people.  Somehow we can be so forgiving about this just because we don’t like the other guy. The architect of systemic racism is the one telling us he is going to solve that problem. Everyone should be able to research these men,  it may interest people to know that Strom Thurmond,  was openly against the Civil rights act of 1957, and he filibustered the passage of the ACT, this man hated civil rights so much that he holds the record of the longest filibuster by a single person in US history,a record that still stands today, (17 years after his death). This is Joe Biden’s friend, when asked by Charlamagne the god, what he had done for black people, he said he voted to extend acts rights, no one asked why the voting rights act is not permanent?????

The same media machine that got into full gear during the 4-year term of Donald Trump has handpicked a few politicians who repeated the talking point of Trump being the most dangerous and worst president this country has ever had. When I personally heard this I was sure no black person would support such a statement, boy was I wrong, I was amazed and appalled at the same time that black people actually supported this statement when 12 presidents actually owned slaves, some of who got their first slave when they were less than 15 years old. (Value they put on a black life) what could be worse than this, but we forgive easily don’t we?

Some of these presidents were

William Henry Harrison,

John Tyler,  

George Washington,

James Madison,

James Monroe,

Andrew Jackson,

Andrew Johnson

Ulysses S Grant,

Zachary Taylor,

 Martin Van Buren,

 James Polk,

Thomas Jefferson

These facts can easily be researched, The political system however can count on the fact that most people won’t do this thing we call research. If anyone believes that the media is not into the business of telling people what to think, they need not go far, all they have to do is look at the year 2020.

Think Joe Biden is a RACIST?? Kamala Harris thinks so http://selfequanimity.com/think-joe-biden-is-a-racist-kamala-harris-thinks-so/ http://selfequanimity.com/think-joe-biden-is-a-racist-kamala-harris-thinks-so/#respond Wed, 14 Oct 2020 04:42:35 +0000 http://selfequanimity.com/?p=993 Isn’t it funny and strange that today Kamala Harris LOVES Joe Biden……  how quick we forget,  this was actually on TV and radio, and today people claim they have forgotten about all this?  You would think that in this day and age, that we record everything, Politicians still lie,  and lie big time. Today she claims Joe Biden, somehow will heal the whole nation, he has yet to apologize, The funny thing here is that she also has a record like his,  back then when they were against each other, the truth was coming out because they didn’t like each other, you heard them both, neither of them has apologized for that, in fact, most of their policies are still on the book,  My brothers and sisters,  I won’t tell you who to vote for,  I will tell you to listen closely!!

I got this letter from the DNC, funny when he was putting together his crime bill he was able to find money, he has been there for 47 years, now he wants me to pay him to save me, OHHH the hypocrisy!!!

RIP, Black Panther, Shut up Politicians http://selfequanimity.com/rip-black-panther-shut-up-politicians/ http://selfequanimity.com/rip-black-panther-shut-up-politicians/#respond Sat, 29 Aug 2020 17:32:51 +0000 http://selfequanimity.com/?p=857 This is one of the few times where I  wish Vibranium was real, it could have cured, our beloved Chadwick Boseman,  No one knew he was battling cancer, Stage 3, that is a strong brother, he was able to do what he does best while fighting this horrible disease. He is in a better place right now resting from this cold world. 2020 has been a year that will go down in history. Although history does repeat itself all the time. 

     What brings me to really writing this post is how the politicians are using this as a stepping stone.  The left was quick to offer condolences before President Trump, so that people will say, oh they are down for the black cause, after all, Chadwick represents a symbol of black royalty and black power.    I see people on twitter trying to say, President Trump hasn’t said anything about his death.  I’m always surprised about how people use Trump for anything bad that happens, its almost as if, if they could blame him they will. if you ask me how then can Biden say this about him today when he was vice president when the president took money from HBCU’s, something that Boseman benefitted from, so  Shut up politicians, this man made it on his own,  he thanked Denzel Washington and that is as far as  I will go, he didn’t look up to any of you politicians.

Denzel Washington

Yes Chadwick took a picture with Kamala Harris, Yes Chadwick went to the White House when Obama was president, yes, he said a few words about politics, but I don’t think we should remember him by what politicians he stood with or took pictures with but by his work, in his 43 years he had done more than most of us will ever do!!!!!!.

Chadwick Boseman
Chadwick Boseman

     If I may I would like to remember him by him shedding tears when children who were battling cancer themselves died before black panther release, knowing that he was going through the same thing himself. According to what I read, 2 of the children were trying to hold on until the movie came out but they didn’t make it. They died before black panther was released, if we believe in something greater than ourselves, and some intelligent life force out there watching over us, then it is my sincere hope that he is able to meet these children who went before him. I also hope that everyone  he has brought to life on the big screen  (James Brown, Thurgood Marshall, Jackie Robinson)

Kobe Bryant & Chadwick Boseman

Rest in Peace Chadwick !!!!!!

Republican ? Democrat ? the new normal? http://selfequanimity.com/republican-democrat-the-new-normal/ http://selfequanimity.com/republican-democrat-the-new-normal/#respond Sat, 15 Aug 2020 01:09:48 +0000 http://selfequanimity.com/?p=685 A black man took a black woman to the white house, Shouldn’t it be the same the other way around?

Interesting turn of events right??  We know without a doubt that black people are now occupying the most powerful offices in the United States.  This is actually good, I’m sure we will make something of these offices in the future, maybe not now, we are just getting used to it. On the featured image of this post, we have a very interesting picture, one of the most outspoken black women of the republican party,  has a white husband, and then we have Kamala Harris who is a vice presidential nominee, and a democrat, who also has a white husband.  I want to know where the outcry for the black man is ???  For me, you can be with who you love, but when black men do it, it’s almost as if we have betrayed our women when black women do it, it’s love.  It is almost as if to say black men don’t understand love,  but black women do ……. I believe in proof and facts, and go with what I see, of course, we all believe in some theories, but they will remain so till proven.

Kim Klacik

As far as we know, when the first black man occupied the most powerful office in the world,  he had a black woman by his side,  why can’t we expect the same courtesy from the black woman?  Imagine if President Obama’s wife had been white, we would never hear the end of it. At least he gets some points for bringing the black woman into one of the most powerful offices in the world and not only did he do that he actually brought his mother-in-law, a black woman to the white house.   Here we have two women with very different political ideologies, yet have one thing in common, So let us say by some strange miracle, one of them gets to be president,  they are saying loud and clear, who they would have on their side.   I don’t know about you but if a black woman were to become president of the United States,  should we expect her husband to be white ??? Again  I believe you love who you love, but we make a big deal about race, usually when it favors us.

      Barack and Michelle Obama

A lot of black women aspire to be like Michelle Obama but have forgotten that she got to be the first lady or got to be this famous because of a black man, so if black women say they stand by our side all the time like they say they do, then we should have undeniable proof like we do when it came to occupying the most powerful office in the United States, we did not leave the black woman behind. Hopefully, a lot of black women see my argument and not use any mental gymnastics to justify this, they won’t win this one,  Kamala Harris is a heartbeat away from the presidency and if Joe Biden should win, she becomes the president of the Senate.

To be fair, a lot of powerful black men have wives who aren’t of our race but different races,  of course, we black men have done that, and we will admit to it,  AGAIN, when it came to the most powerful position… we went to our black women and said ” come with me”  We black men made sure the white house had a BLACK FAMILY!!.  PERIOD!!!!!!!!!!!!. How is that for loyalty?

I agree with  Candace Owens sometimes…. but on this, I don’t agree with her, if we have black republicans like Michael Steel and Herman Cain, sure she could have found a nice black Conservative,  same goes for Kamala Harris there is no shortage of black democrats. To me, it says a lot about how the black woman has viewed the black man for a long time.  She will only march for him when he is dead, if he is alive, well, child support will be knocking on his door. Where are women like Coretta Scott King when you need them,  her loyalty was One in a Million.

Oh and save your conspiracy theories, we are going with what we can prove.
