When will Black America Learn to Hit Racism Where it Really Hurts? | THE POCKETS, Like Other Cultures

When will the African American community finally wake up and start taking notes from other cultures and ethnicities?

Donald Trump first lost the support of millions of Mexican Americans when he decided to refer to them as “criminals and rapists” and he will be losing millions more with his racist Muslim comments, “calling for a total and complete shutdown of Muslims entering the United States.”

I say racist because this comment was directed at Arabians.

Arabian Business reported Landmark Group, a regional retail driving force, has stopped selling Trump’s products in over 160 stores in the Middle East. Khalaf al-Habtoor, the owner of Al Habtoor Group, a United Arab Emirates-based corporation, told the Associated Press that he has withdrawn his previous support for Trump and is furious that he would make such disgusting remarks.

Trump is racist but he’s also a businessman which is why he met with over 100 black pastors and recruited the black sisters that have gone viral shuckin’ and jivin’ for him.

Think about how much more money he would lose if we stopped visiting his hotels.

Did you know that in the 70’s Trump and his family knowingly discriminated against African Americans by denying their rental application at Trump establishments? A former building superintendent claimed he was instructed to attach a separate sheet of paper marked with a “C” to the rental application if the person was African American.

The “C” was for colored, and this would ensure the application would be denied; of course, Trump denied these accusations.

No one cares about the marches, no one cares about the hurt feelings, all people care about is the almighty dollar.
So when will we start to show these billionaires that we don’t need them, they need us?

As Trump and other billion dollar corporations continue to alienate us, we continue giving them our hard earned money.

When will it stop? Money talks!
