PBP Radio Special Edition – Harris’ Plan for Black Men: Will It Be Enough to Secure Their Votes?

Date:

From The Publisher’s Desk With Damon K. Jones

In this insightful video, Damon K. Jones, Publisher of Black Westchester, offers a critical analysis of Vice President Kamala Harris’s Opportunity Agenda for Black Men. Jones examines the strengths and shortcomings of Harris’s plan, which aims to address wealth-building, healthcare, employment, and criminal justice reform for Black men in America.

Jones highlights the plan’s positive aspects, including forgivable loans for Black entrepreneurs, vocational training initiatives, and healthcare reforms targeting conditions that disproportionately affect Black men. He also discusses the plan’s support for police reform through the George Floyd Justice in Policing Act.

However, Jones doesn’t shy away from addressing the plan’s limitations. He points out crucial gaps, such as the lack of a clear stance on reparations and insufficient support for Black veterans. Jones also explores the constitutional challenges in implementing federal police reforms at the local level.

Throughout the video, Jones emphasizes the importance of accountability and tangible results, reflecting on the skepticism many Black men feel toward political promises. He discusses potential additions to strengthen the plan, including addressing systemic discrimination in financial systems, focusing on environmental justice, and expanding mental health support.

This thought-provoking commentary provides viewers with a balanced perspective on Harris’s plan and its potential impact on Black men’s votes in the upcoming election. Jones concludes by challenging the Democratic Party to go beyond ambitious plans and take decisive action to fulfill their promises to Black men in America.

  1. Sorry…Kamala is going down in flames BECAUSE of Obama, Clinton AND Biden. Before she got the nomination, many of the Dem contenders were going to go for it. However, once Kamala got the nod, all of the opposition within the party ceased. The party is gearing up for a fight in 2028 because Trump will have finished his second term, and Vance may be going for the top spot. Once upon a time, the Democrat party delivered what it promised. Now, because of the love of power and money, Black folk–especially Black men–have been forgotten. It’s still a free country, and the vote is still secret. Let’s just shut up and vote. And, pray for those IN office, and those who are about to take office. Fool me once, shame on you…fool me twice, shame on me. Black folk are tired of the excuses. Our votes are too valuable to waste them on candidates who are: “Talking Loud and Saying NOTHING in the Democrat ranks!”
