At least four different groups — the Democracy Fund + UCLA Nationscape polling initiative, Morning Consult, the African American Research Collaborative and HIT Strategies — are conducting surveys with bigger samples of Black Americans in the run-up to the 2020 election. And issues of race and systemic racism have dominated stretches of the campaign.
The information gathered was complied by fivethirtyeight.com [https://53eig.ht/2S44iYG]
Some of the data gathered shows that there is a generational divide between older and younger Black voters when it comes to Donald Trump and Republicans.
Much of this divide can be attributed to misinformation campaigns being waged against African Americans on social media.
During Thursday’s edition of #RMU, Roland and his panel of guests deconstructed the data and made it perfectly clear Trump, his ilk and the Republican Party do not have the African American community’s best interest at heart … #PressPlay

The system is not design for people of color Politicians are not for people of color, the system has not change, blacks are still getting oppress and killed by cops for over 400 years now.
This is how inept millennials are with the 1994 Crime Bill. It was written by ALEC with the help of Orin Hatch. Republicans are responsible for the law. Dixiecrats are also responsible for three strikes and stand your ground. Hidden within the Republican party are racist, militia members, and civil war reenactors. That is why they join the Alt-right and why Charlottesville results in the death of Heather Heyer.
Black millennials will suffer this election because of their progressive affiliations and beliefs. BLM and Green New Deal merge to specifically use ANTIFA to set fires and terrorize using the black community. They also used children to protests to shock society into believing black people are a monolith.
I am building my interest and if the Democrats really wanted to win and they wanted the youth about then they wouldn’t have been pushing biting and Kamala Harris Democrats are doing nothing but disrespecting black people binance and over and over again and after 2016 I got off the Democratic Plantation after the DNC was hacked and I saw that the Democrats play the same game that the Republicans play I was good I am not independent which a lot of young black people are becoming Independence you don’t own the black vote. What Bible said in regards to Hispanics being very diverse unlike the black community and if you don’t vote for me you’re not black as if black people need to automatically vote for the Democratic Party as if we are owned by them. And let’s just be clear we are listening to people like Yvette who worked on the hill and also Antonio Moore We are following black media that is what a lot of these folks belter understand we are not here on the coast of MSNBC and CNN
Sorry to say but the educated black minority have not connected or guided to the overall black community. It is past time for the highly educated black intellectuals to lead and educate the black community. I love you to death Roland!!!
If you or anyone asked the Democrats to pass three things for Blacks only (three) they would laugh in your face!!!! It doesn’t do any good to play the game when the other side changes the rules at will.
The states Never agreed to stop segregated policy’s in certain systems . So let’s see why segregation is about to be open again.
The DOJ has taken an openly racist stance Again. So states have no fear of federal interference.
The Supreme Court is about to again use its power to re-enact Dredd Scott. Giving the states power to ignore the constitution.
The legislative and Executive branch’s are being taken by force.
We’re still in segregation. The Democrats don’t have an interest in stoping our abuse. Like a pimp they control black anger with dance and hot sauce on some chicken!
Why does Roland want stupid people to vote? What good does it do to name call our youth?
We will NEVER make any progress as a race with mindsets like this. It is scary. Come on, young people. What the heck?!?
Vote shaming does not work
Not voting for Biden or Trump
Hey Roland. Where you get that TSU hoodie. I’m a Tiger Belle. Go HBCU.
HBO “Agents of Chaos” wow check it out.
Any traction the Republicans make with black voters lay squarely at the feet of the democratic party. It’s either a failure in policy or communication. Btw, maybe Roland should stop calling them stupid and talking down to them. Y’all say vote and then get in your feelings if someone don’t vote the way you want them to. Kinte cloth and trips to Ghana ain’t gonna get it for everyone. How did this go from a discussion on more considering to vote republican to hand wringing about non-voters? For some people it’s about having something to vote for, not having something to vote against. When will you invite CTG and TI on to chastise them for supporting opportunity zones?
Mass Incarceration has happened since bra… you know that!!!
Some people don’t know the difference between those who might not do anything for you and those who are working against you.
They are Telling a Lie
The democrats have done absolutely nothing
To all my fellow young people. From one 19 year old to many others. This is not a matter of Democrats vs. Republicans, or old heads vs. young folk. Please just vote and get Trump out of office. Whether you think these panelists are trying to demean young people or not, do not focus on this. If you’re black and have a pulse, just vote Trump out. Period.
While these newly “woke” Blacks are debating the conundrum of whether or not they should vote, or whether they should now vote Republican because Democrats have never done anything for them, white folks will continue to turn out to the polls to vote for leaders who NEVER do anything for them. They won’t fracture or weaken their voting blocks.
So while Blacks sit, sulk, and complain about what Democrats haven’t done, white folks just keep voting, which explains why in the last 40 years, Republican presidents have put 10 SC justices on the bench (assuming Judge Comey Barrett is confirmed), while Democrats have placed just 4. During his first 3+ yrs in office DT has already put 200 judges on the bench around the country. In just 3+ yrs he has appointed 53 appellate judges (not one Black). Now remember, Democrats won back the House in 2018. Since then they have sent 400+ bills to the Senate where they died. But not to despair – they did confirm those 200 judges though. And while Blacks fold their arms across their chests and roll their eyes when it comes to voting, white folks just keep voting, voting for people that keep gerrymandering districts, which suppresses the Black vote, and keeps preventing Blacks from getting the kind of representation they want (FYI, most gerrymandered districts in the country were created to favor Republicans). But I guess not voting is the panacea Blacks have been searching for and need, so yeah, I guess they shouldn’t vote.
Money money money
Wanting to get something out of the people were voting for all of a sudden is wrong. Everybody else is doing it but the black person shouldn’t get the f*** out of here not voting until I have a representative in office that is representing my morals and ideology and there’s no one up there like that
The fact is you got your money. Why should have black people give they vote away for free. What promises what reassurances are they making. Not Biden and Sasha saying he’s going to invest more money into the police and not defend them. No reparations why should I vote because I’m supposed to choose between the lesser of two evils. When is it ever okay to vote for evil
I find it so funny that so many people in this comment box have so much to say about someone’s opinion. Yet majority of you haven’t educated yourselves on your states laws about your voting rights. You all choose to avoid the writings on the wall. YOUR VOTE COUNTS!!!!! If it didn’t the GOP wouldn’t be so hell bent on Suppressing it (Your vote is your Voice). Some of you have strong feelings because your guilt of what these commentators are saying, applies to YOU.
Have anybody but me seen the video of young Joe Biden calling black folks niggars in the house come on now come on
Roro got them advertising dollars
Not voting for Trump, could never do that. But say Biden loses, what is Trump and the WS going to do that hasn’t already been done to us. Are they bringing back slavery, Jim Crow, separate but equal, hangings and cross burnings? We survived it all and we will survive the next round. If Trump destroys this bastion of WS, why should we care?
How about Robert Byrd, KKK member being given a prominent seat at Obama’s inauguration. A symbol to the WS that nothing was going to fundamentally change, Just like Joe Biden
LOL They’re acting like there is a difference between the Republicans and Democrats. SMH keep on giving your vote away for nothing
Question, have any black ppl watching this video actually participate in this poll? Odds say that at least one black person here took that poll and can confirm if it was a real poll.
I’ve been trying to take part in polls for years….but for some reason I haven’t. I’ve asked just about every black person I know if they participated in a poll about black ppl, no one has taken one.
I want to know who is taking these polls and how do you participate.
Since 2006, I only participated in one poll. In 2016 during the early primary season, the only 2 options they would allow me to say is Trump or Clinton. Since it was the primary, my position was Bernie but they wouldn’t accept those as an answer. Since the(n), I have been curious about who are running these polls and who is really participating.
Roland you are offensive on so many levels that you’ll never be effective at reaching the youth..
Is it that the young people are sleep or is it because they see the elders acting like cowards?
Is it because they see people trying to manipulate them into an alliance for their vote while telling them that they don’t want to acknowledge their express needs?
Is it because they are tired of feeling disenfranchised while being asked to wait and see if change comes?
Is it because they have grown up in a society where everything is ever changing which causes them to question why politics for black Americans seems to be the only thing remaining stagnant?
Instead of insulting them try listening to what they have to say then educate them on the facts without being so condescending.
You can’t single handedly make change but you can definitely continue to be a major contributor to the rebellious feelings that the youth have towards you and your position.
Wth is woke?If our elite would stop selling us out and really help to get our own things could get better…
my whole life changed because of, *p a i d t o b e h o m e .c o m*
maybe you’re the one whos so woke that you’re a sleep, have you ever thought of that?
Democratic messaging has been disrespectful at best. Messaging to black people has been disrespectful at best. If you want the black vote, don’t assume what we do if you’re not willing to listen to normal people.
Influx of Black immigrants. Thta’s why.
Know who hates you…that was good Mr. ROLAND
You know I really try to be objective, but if the goal is to tell the black people who like Trump not to vote for them, you should not start by insulting them. Calling them simpleton etc. first you should try to understand their thinking. Then present an argument that will reach.
