The permit issue is why this all started so you cannot have an opinion on what I’m saying until you research it.
The permit issue is why this all started so you cannot have an opinion on what I’m saying until you research it.You know infinitely way more about Tariq trying to get a permit than I do. I didn't look at at the emails or whatever. I focused on Rashad, the group and what he was about.
I've never posted any detailed opinion about Tariq's attempt to get a permit because frankly, I don't know the facts. And before someone says 'maybe you should'. No, you should. There are some occasions I don't even listen to Tariq (like when he's trading insults with non FBA, sellouts, etc.).
"Hidden Colors Quartet" lol....oh goodness.
So, for the record, 'The Great Permit Debate' will have to happen without me. I don't know the details. lol
I do think it would have been better for him and Rashad to have a private conversation. But I would agree that Tariq shouldn't attend. Watch, observe and decide after you think you have enough info either way.
Finally, I think these kinds of conversations are needed. Gotta clear the air of things sometimes.
I didn’t know Tezlyn was part Latino.Just dropping this here. This space is being recorded, and it is interesting (at the moment, I'm listening live).
🇹yes, 🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩Again, there is no way you can be deep in the reparations space enough for you to start a reparations organization and not come across Dr. Claud Anderson and Tariq early.
Lee and Booker know better to even holla at Tariq. They won't go near Dr. Claud Anderson, but both of them hollared at you to be part of a reparations protest in DC? Nah....HUGE red flag.
Everyone who is who knows each other in that space. Not everyone gets along (ADOS, FBA for example) but you know who everyone is. If he was on instagram or whatever for a couple years. He started or at least is representing an reparations organization but you no one of note has heard of you. The brother Naiheim? (don't know how to spell his name), vouched for him. That's a good start BUT its not enough. Naiheim seems to be saying "I vouch for him, done" What? If a guy was in town and my boy said such and such is in town, I vouch for him, that's cool on a personal level but not when there are literally 100s of thousands of people who trust your judgement. You vouching for him is a start not the end. There are people who are really cool with Tariq but also cool with people Tariq don't get along with. The sista Jezlyn has said that.
Rashad seems to be of the mindset, lets hash it out over a few days and we good. Nah, Tariq and Jason Black knew of each other for a few years before they became cool. It wasn't any overnight thing.
People seem like they tryna rush things and Rashad ought to respect that he can't just get put on by Tariq after a phone call.
No one who is well respected in this space is going to consider Sheila Jackson Lee and Cory Booker to speak. None. The only ones who would would the ADOS leaders perhaps and that's about it.
The best thing to do is let him have his thing, watch from a safe distance and then when TBA, Tariq or others feel secure enough, then holla.
If I heard Tariq correctly they kept stalling...so he gave up. After seeing how this other group got theirs so quickly he decided to apply again for November 5th and hired a company that specializes in getting permits and I assume would know the specific folks to holla at in the government to get it done.Just listened to one of these spaces Tariq did. Now he's claiming he pushed the rally back and didn't cancel it.
Dude can't admit a wrong on the simplest shit.
Hilarious How the FBI Let him get the permit after another group got one.

She was also part of Bernie Sanders campaign before. So far though she sounds thorough. I'd like to see her work with Marcel's next campaign and others who are running for office.I didn’t know Tezlyn was part Latino.
But Tariq said if you're half-FBA you can't speak for the community. He said you can be an ally but you can't speak. But he's on stage with someone who is half-FBA speaking on our issues.She was also part of Bernie Sanders campaign before. So far though she sounds thorough. I'd like to see her work with Marcel's next campaign and others who are running for office.
On a side note, I'd like to see us run on a reparations platform in local races, those are winnable. I'm also including school boards. They are trying to remove any mention of black history by calling it critical race theory.
Anyway, her being part latina should be a red flag, then you watch what she says and what she does more intently. If she's saying the right things and is consistent and has the respect of those in this space, I'll rock with her. Support her. Just like anyone else.
And Bernie Sanders is known for being against reparations for black people. He publicly said it more than once.But Tariq said if you're half-FBA you can't speak for the community. He said you can be an ally but you can't speak. But he's on stage with someone who is half-FBA speaking on our issues.

Unless I heard things wrong or don't know all info, is what I am saying incorrect?
A.K.A.......cancelled it.
He's a Major Bullshitter that got exposed so he was forced to get his shit together.
Even Roland Martin rocked his jaw about this :

This is what I'm asking about. I only like to deal in facts. I've heard the complete opposite multiple times and I've been in a lot of these spaces surrounding this issue. Where did you hear this, and who said it?Lee and Booker reached out to him.
This is what Tariq said, yes. He decided not to hold the rally/march because of the stalling tactics and the fact the FBI (allegedly) showed up to his house. He wanted people to be safe. He announced the new date only after info about Rashad's march came out.If I heard Tariq correctly they kept stalling...so he gave up.

Yes, this is also not the first time I've heard Tariq say something along the lines of, "If I said it, so what?" This is disturbing behavior that should not be ignored. If it's not called out now, it's only going to get worse.That woman Tara backed him into a corner and he said "I'm a boss"
No one (at least not me) is discrediting his past works. History of delivering major projects should not be a shield for disrespectful and (dare I say) off-code behavior. It should not. Mark my words... if no one checks it now. It will get worse. This is how these types of personalities are.Again..and again, tell me someone who has a long list of delivering major projects?
If you click the link under the video (not sure if you can see it) it takes you to YouTube directly at the 2:16:06 mark.The Roland Martin video is 2 hours long. I skipped around hoping to hear about it. If you have a specific minute, that would make it easier. I'm not listening to 2 hours of Roland.
Then Tezlyn should have only been in the background of the Revolt summit. Not speaking or answering questions. She mentioned Jim Crow as a reason for why we need reparations during an interview/show she was on with Tariq, but people are bashing a flyer that mentions it too? Folks need to be consistent.I completely agree with that no non FBA should NOT be on any reparations panel where we are dealing with white folks. I don't care how down they are
He is saying he is not accountable to the community. He can do what he wants whenever he wants. But his fans like it so whatever.Yes, this is also not the first time I've heard Tariq say something along the lines of, "If I said it, so what?" This is disturbing behavior that should not be ignored. If it's not called out now, it's only going to get worse.
Let's get something straight, just because I'm bringing up stuff Tariq is doing, doesn't mean I'm supporting the other guy either. 😂 I've only heard the complete opposite of what you mentioned. If you don't remember, then no worries.Accept it or don't, its fine. You are perfectly within your rights not to. I won't complain if you do. My best recollection is Lee and Booker contacted him. I may have gotten it twisted before but that's my best recollection. If you are saying there is no communication either by him or them then that is something altogether. I'm not the only one on this site who heard it.
Heard the Roland reference. Okay? He's talked about Tariq and others before. My takeaway is he listens and that's a good thing.
Regarding Tezlyn, this may sound like splitting hairs, but the Revolt summit was for black people spoken to by black people. White folks may have been interested but was 'family' as I know it. Fox News, CNN, Congressional hearings are white folks to me. But to some Revolt TV may be seen as talking to white folks. I personally don't see how, but others may differ.
Bernie really tried to game us into thinking that fixing classism which is white people’s issue would fix our issue which is racism. I wonder how she reconciled that.And Bernie Sanders is known for being against reparations for black people. He publicly said it more than once.
She gave a nice little twisted story on the breakfast club a few years ago after his organization fired her.Bernie really tried to game us into thinking that fixing classism which is white people’s issue would fix our issue which is racism. I wonder how she reconciled that.
Absolutely no worries. I'll repeat that I think its a good idea to clear the air, etc. Admittedly, the 'tone' of my responses at times can sound a little terse,Let's get something straight, just because I'm bringing up stuff Tariq is doing, doesn't mean I'm supporting the other guy either. 😂 I've only heard the complete opposite of what you mentioned. If you don't remember, then no worries.
Only gave you the timestamp for the Rollie video because you mentioned you didn't see what someone was talking about. I don't care about what he said, either way.
Mentioned Tezlyn because it has been revealed that she is a Latina and shouldn't be speaking on Reparations at that level.
I give them props for having a stage, mics, and a Dj.
Live feed if anyone is interested.
Homie was funny on ComicView. It’s cool to see him get civically engaged.S/O to Mayoral Candidate Red Grant for showing up to the rally today. It's a shame that he didn't get the party nomination, but I think that he'd be an excellent successor to Muriel Bowser, and he's push for reparations & DC statehood.
I've met Red a few times, and he was always nice. He's also been saying the right things & going to areas in the city that the other candidates have been avoiding.Homie was funny on ComicView. It’s cool to see him get civically engaged.
LOL...I actually got a good laugh at this one...good one.
He surely said that. In fact, he said he MIGHT be there and did not give a definitive answer. I was like wtf. It is too much agent behavior going on.The guy said Cory Booker and representative Lee asked to speak and may be there. That alone is all I need to know this shit ain't serious.
That's a larger crowd than I thought, actually.This came across my feed.
This came across my feed.
I think we are seeing the 1960's happen again right before our faces. It's a great thing that we are getting mobilized again but sad that we are having to do it again.That's a larger crowd than I thought, actually.
I respect it.
like wowww.. there IS a world outside of Twitter Spaces. lol. To me, that really shows he's in the streets to pull that crowd WITHOUT twitter.That's a larger crowd than I thought, actually.
I respect it.
I saw it coming a mile away. Dude is predictable.Good effort today. Unfortunately, Tariq is going to spend 30 minutes hating & making jokes about the crowd size on his show tonight.
I'm paying attention to all these folks who are in our movement who are visible. I'm seeing how many successes they have.But Tariq said if you're half-FBA you can't speak for the community. He said you can be an ally but you can't speak. But he's on stage with someone who is half-FBA speaking on our issues.
Absolutely. He has WAY, WAY more money than what the typical Black person has. Do you think he is on the side of this system (cointelpro) or do you think he is not and the system allows him to keep his money since he keeps shit stirred amongst our people while pretending not to do so?I saw it coming a mile away. Dude is predictable.
