Black People Are Neither Seen Nor Heard In Louisiana
That would be news to ... everyone
The major players of the Civil Rights Movement of the 1960s made a fatal error in tying their fate to dependence upon the government, relying on government direct support, using government as a major employer, and directing the government in those efforts as representatives and senators as well as unelected long term employees and agency heads, for example.
Having forever given away the ability to be self-determined, Democrats and black citizens now must continually rely on affirmation by the Government! So much so that, for example, Financial Literacy courses in high schools cannot be considered “progress” without government-funded programs linked to them.
These facts are lost on many people, particularly black politicians and pundits, who “fight” to be sure the government does even more for black citizens.
Enter our BFF Comrade Commish who just this morning claimed victory, as “I sued Louisiana” and won!
Black Louisianans are unheard.
The unheard black people in New Orleans, for example, are the unheard mayor, the unheard district attorney, the unheard sheriff, the unheard chief of police, the unheard registrar of voters, the unheard Councilman Freddie King, the unheard Councilman Oliver Thomas, the unheard Councilwoman Lesli Harris, the unheard Councilman Eugene Green, and the unheard President of the City Council JP Morrell. Unheard Delisha Boyd, state rep, is unheard. Unheard Troy Carter, US Representative, is unheard. Unheard state rep Ken Brass is unheard as are the other unheard state reps Marcus Bryant, Barbara Carpenter, Wilford Carter, Kenny Cox, Adrian Fisher, Randal Gaines, Cedric Glover, Kyle Green, Patrick Jefferson, Sam Jenkins, Travis Johnson, Edmond Jordan, Alonzo Knox, Vanessa LaFleur, Ed Larvadain, Rodney Lyons, Denise Marcelle, Dustin Miller, Pat Moore, Candace Newell, Tammy Phelps, Vincent Pierre, and Larry Selders. All unheard.
Also unheard in Louisiana are the Mayor of Baton Rouge and the Chief of Police there, many unheard others.
The NAACP is always unheard in Louisiana. As is the ACLU. We all know that!
And because Davante Lewis is black, he’s always unheard, also. Just ask him. He’ll tell you.
And being black and gay means Davante is doubly unheard. Short makes him triply unheard. A sitting commissioner on the Public Service Commission and he’s unheard four times over!
That’s a LOT of being unheard for black people in Louisiana.
Which is why the unheard are celebrating this Supreme Court decision today:
WASHINGTON (AP) — The Supreme Court on Monday lifted its hold on a Louisiana case that could force the state to redraw congressional districts to boost Black voting power.
The order follows the court's rejection earlier in June of a congressional redistricting map in Alabama and unfreezes the Louisiana case, which had been on hold pending the decision in Alabama.
In both states, Black voters are a majority in just one congressional district. Lower courts had ruled that the maps raised concerns that Black voting power had been diluted, in violation of the landmark federal Voting Rights Act.
About a third of Louisiana's residents are Black. More than one in four Alabamians are Black.
The justices put the Louisiana case on hold and allowed the state's challenged map to be used in last year's elections after they agreed to hear the Alabama case.
The case had separately been appealed to the 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in New Orleans. The justices said that appeal now could go forward in advance of next year's congressional elections.
Just imagine how much more unheard the black citizens of Louisiana would be had it not been for Mr Lewis suing the state… unheard as he is.
By the way, the lawsuit was brought by “voters and activist groups.” But of course Davante will claim “he” did it. Like when “he” awarded Southern University $1.265 million. (We are still pursuing the answer to the central question: “Why do PSC commissioners have slush funds to dole out?”
I’m 100% now that he is busy passing out socialist kool-aid from an endless tap of victimhood. 🤡
