Or I don't have the money? Between jobs and trying to move. Times are tights. But yeah, you're right about calling me out on that first part
If you don't have the money, then you don't have the money. My implied judgement is only relevant insofar as you're financially capable.
But we know there are swathes of the Era population that are financially capable. They be defending $70 games like it's nothing.
This is quickly making me realize I've never actually bothered getting in on any sort of online payment thing since paypalā¦ I need to catch up with the times.
I'd be willing to send money, but I'd rather not have to message everyone here to get their info. Can't people post their accounts?
BTW, for those who are surprised by this thread, these are pretty common on Twitter.

Imagine how this country would be different if Johnson hadn't overturned the "40 acres and a mule". Thousands of black families would have generational wealth in the form of land. Perhaps the feds wouldn't have excluded minorities from the white picket fence communities they built after World War 2. So many what ifs...
Don't matter where they're from, cash spends the same regardless.
Realistically, I feel like most of that probably would have been burned/stolen/"reclaimed" by local white forces throughout the first years of it happening, but it does make for an interesting thought exercise. Just imagine how different things could be by this point in timeā¦
Yeah but how does it work. Do you take it to pm or are people just trusting that folks are black? Or...
Lincoln never getting assassinated is a rather interesting "what-if" scenario to think about.
I am reminded of an SNL bit. "It was a joke. A serious joke. Like when you're joking, but you mean it."

Remember when they said we saved America back in November? It's time for that compensation.

I would, friend, but I don't have much money at the moment.
Sadly, I don't know if it would have turned out well. I don't see white folks just letting Black folks be happy and generate wealth like that. I'd imagine it would be like how white people got the land for the King Ranch.

I paid for a black family's gas when he only asked for 2 and change on his pump. I encourage everyone to do the same for anyone in that situation tbh.
going to a Juneteenth celebration at a local park later wearing a cause that I support financially, black girl hockey club. I know there will be vendors, DJ, speakers and activities, and BBQ/Soul food from Hamhock Jones
Is this club in Seattle? Would very much like to support this.
Facts the Internet works in mysterious ways
No proof needed. After reading the thread and thinking about the Internet...I guess it's not as weird as I thought.
I'm black, who do I talk to? š¤£
