I've only seen some of the videos, but that's my take. Is it that most blacks have jobs and don't have time for that bullshite and/or they believe their time is better spent on worthwhile things?

Because they are not stupid. And they want to do their thing on the weekend.

That's the most logical answer.

It was a Saturday so I'm not sure employment status has much to do with it

A lot of them live in the South where college football is a big thing so maybe that had something to do with it

It's an interesting observation, but perhaps one that isn't that important.

The few protests I saw also trended older. Perhaps it has more to do with medical needs than we see on the surface.

Blacks don't like Gays / Trannies .


The reason Buttiepeg wasn't Kamala's pick for VP.

This may not be true.. but based on observing rallies, protests, riots, whatever on social media and the news reports...

...Black people show up for black causes. No Kings wasn't a black cause. It wasn't an anti-black cause, it just wasn't afro-centric.

You think most black people don't have jobs?

They didn’t offer fried chicken since most white liberals are vegans

I'll give Don Lemon some credit - most of the MSM would never let those interviews see the light of day.

Are you really blaming college football for a lack of turnout?
