(#AD) — Professor Michael Eric Dyson revealed that Jay-Z contacted him directly after he publicly criticized how Kendrick Lamar questioned Drake’s Blackness during their rap beef. Dyson said Jay-Z strongly disagreed with his stance. Dyson had argued that Drake, as a biracial artist from the Black diaspora, is undeniably part of Black culture and that questioning his authenticity reflects a larger issue of policing who belongs in the culture.

Michael Eric Dyson says “We’re all Black now,” but the receipts tell a different story. Is it time for Michael Eric Dyson, Roland Martin and Al Sharpton to sit the rest of this season out?

Barack Obama not doing anything at all for Black Americans while he was in office set a precedent that any president after him won’t have to do anything for Black Americans either‼️🤦🏽‍♂️ “Every Black person that said Barack Obama doesn’t have to do anything for me except be Black.. we need to round those negros up. They need to have their melanin snatched and get 5,000 lashes apiece.” - Dr. Umar

When Kamala Harris was running, Barack Obama was telling black men how she has had the same experiences as them and using that as a reason to vote for her. But I guess that logic doesn't apply to Winsome Earl Sears running for governor in Virginia. Barack Obama endorsed the white democrat running against her. It's just more proof that he was using Black Americans sensitivity to racism as a tool to manipulate us into voting for a democrat. It's not about voting for a black woman, it's about making sure you vote for a democrat.

Professor Eric Dyson in a new video shares that Jay Z contacted him & VIGOROUSLY disagreed with him about his criticism of the way Kendrick Lamar tried to strip Drake of his Blackness during the beef as well as the pedophilia accusations that were made against Drake. Dyson argued that Drake, as a biracial artist from the Black diaspora, is undeniably part of Black culture & that reducing Blackness to a narrow definition ignores the global scope of the Black experience. He added that while Kendrick Lamar is a brilliant lyricist, the attempt to question Drake’s authenticity reflects a problematic tendency to police who is allowed to belong in the culture. Shawn Carter, better known as Jay Z disagrees with Professor Eric Dyson’s take.

Imagine if Joe Biden or Barack Obama decided to fundraise off of selling “God bless America” Korans. That’s how non-Christian Americans feel about the Trump Bible that he’s now selling in order to raise money to run for president. This is so embarrassing not only for Americans and Trump but for Christian Americans who are being used to bilk money from so that a billionaire can supposedly pay his bills.

There’s no longer uninterrupted trips to the store, or walks without secret service for President Barack Obama. The former President in no way lives the life of the common, everyday black man. Like my boys used to say, “Mamma we made it!”. He reminds us though, that he’s surrounded by family that hasn’t quite “made it”. He’s still holds close to the memories, & experiences that made Barack Hussein Obama who he is. He still feels connected to his community, and whether it’s political season or not he wants them to know that they have power… they have agency. Pivot Podcast X Barack Obama #ThePivot #BarackObama

Professor Eric Dyson continues to defend Drake’s blackness on Stephen A Smith ‘s show- calls out Kendrick Lamar as well as others who called Drake a colonizer & a culture vulture. He says “I’m pissed that Drake gets dismissed, off the scene, when he’s been Drake for 15 years & you act like you didn’t know that, now he’s not really black?” He continues “Drake is a brilliant rapper, what he’s done to expand the horizon of Hip-Hop is underestimated, even artistically […] We have to stop this narrow, punishing, pernicious, limited viewpoint about blackness”.

On The Last Day Of 2023 We Should All Look Back On The Reason The Media Is Allowed To Spew 24/7 Nonstop Propaganda Against Us, Barack Obama Here’s Barack Obama Bragging About What He’s Done “Understand, it's not necessary for people to believe this information in order to weaken democratic institutions. You just have to flood a country's public square with enough raw sewage. You just have to raise enough questions, spread enough dirt, plant enough conspiracy theorizing that citizens no longer know what to believe. Once they lose trust in their leaders, In mainstream media, in political institutions, in each other, in the possibility of truth, the games won” Barack Obama repealed the 1948 Smith–Mundt Act, which then permitted propaganda to be in broadcasting. It no longer said that it had to be credible

My final arguments on why all Black Americans MUST vote for Trump. "Abraham Lincoln freed black people from physical slavery. Donald Trump will free black people from financial and cultural slavery." Kamala is a tool of the devil to deceive black people, just like Obama. It's time to defeat them once and for all and bring about a revival of American excellence that will include Black America as well. I don't ask very often, but please help me spread this by sharing.

🚨NEW: Victor Davis Hanson: "We were told that if you were black, you had to vote for Kamala Harris and not to be fooled and vote for Trump. That’s what Obama said." "Now he’s in Virginia saying, 'Don’t be fooled and vote for a black woman over a white woman.' So what is it, Barack?" Daily Caller

Many Kendrick fans are calling him out lately! He literally said, “I’m Israel, don’t call me Black no more.” Now his fans are disrespecting an American Scholar Michael Eric Dyson👀👀 No one policed Kendrick for redefining himself. No one questioned his identity when he chose to frame it differently. He reject labels for yourself… but then turn around and question another man’s Blackness? If you get the freedom to define who you are, that same freedom applies to everyone else. Kendrickdoesn’t get to create his own identity while trying to assign one to Drake who never rejected his🎯
