During the 2020 US-Presidential Election-Cycle, the most Controversial-Election in US-History to date: I was requested to be interviewed, concerning the Effects of this Presidential-Election on Muslims as well as Afro-Americans within the United States. In addition to that, I was interviewed also about the Human-Condition of the Afro-American both historically & contemporaneously.
(As per the Conditions) there’s many Things which absolutely must always be at the Forefronts of a Discussion such as this to address…the Following-Topics: Colonization, Slavery, White-Supremacy, White-Privilege, the 13th-Amendment: the US-Prison Industrial-Complex, Black-Codes: the Prelude to Jim-Crow & Segregation, War-On-Drugs, Welfare, Crime&Poverty/Poverty&Crime, Hypersexuality, Self-Hate, etc. And these are just Universial-Issues which affect Afro-Americans holistically.
Then, there’s the Conditions of Muslim Afro-Americans which’re Toxic-Remnants of the Negative Historical-Issues facing Muslim Afro-Peoples holistically & globally, both historically & contemporaneously:
a. The Muslim-Caste System which Muslims have established as an Unwritten-Rule for the Past-Millennium

b. The Bilāl-Mythos

c. al-`Asabiyyah (Xenophobia via White-Supremacy/Anti-Black ness) via Muslim Religio-Scholarship

d. Religio-Rejection of “Black-Lives Matter”

e. Anti-Blackness amongst Muslim Afro-Peoples

The Trump-Administration forced People to recognize/acceot the Reality that the “Colorless-America” which was pontificated/claimed&promoted via the Obama-Years was a Complete-Fiction…al-`Asabiyyah/Xenophobia never vanished from the US-Landscape when Barack Obama was a POTUS, it simply became more covert. However, when Donald Trump became a POTUS it became very overt, and it resulted in the US revisting Tumultuous-Times not seen since the 1960’s, C.E. Moving forward though: it honestly doesn’t matter whom wins Presidential-Elections…I tell People all the Time, “The Dems & the GOP are 2-Wings of the Same-Bird: the Vulture…the United States is a Vulture.” & “Freedom via Democracy is an Illusion.”. Dem-Presidents & GOP-Presidents have come&gone, yet Afro-Americans are still largely an Oppressed-People…manipulated & sold Political Pipe-Dreams by both Political-Parties…urged, pressured in Many-Ways even, to submit their Support/Votes without any such Human-Guarantees in Return…etc. Plato’s “The Republic”, alone, affirms/confirms precisely what I’ve mentioned…keep in Mind that Plato was the Number-1 Student of the Inceptor/Inventor of Democracy: Socrates.
