A montage of black female activists demands that Joe Biden select a black woman as Vice President, claiming they have "saved the Democratic Party since 1965." The hosts characterize this as an "ego play" by the "Black Ink" establishment, who believe they can shame or mobilize black men to the polls without offering them specific policy tangibles.
Mo Facts revisits a Washington Post clip of black female activists demanding a black woman Vice President. He argues that these "Black Ink" leaders used the "leverage" of George Floyd's death to secure political positions for themselves rather than addressing the plight of black men. He describes this as a "matriarchal" power play that ignores the volume of votes needed from black men to effect real change.
The prevalence of "conspiracy theories" in the Black community is framed as a logical response to historical programs like "Black Ink." Judge Joe Brown discusses Obama’s education at the elite Punahou School in Hawaii, noting the extremely high tuition costs and questioning how a supposedly middle-class family afforded it. Brown also claims Obama’s grandmother managed CIA money channels in the South Pacific.
Listener Feedback, White Fragility, and Nashville Shooting Trip
Listener letters discuss using the podcast as an educational tool for university students regarding "White Fragility" and "Black Ink." A donation from a firearms instructor leads to a discussion about "GBG" (Give Blacks Guns) and a potential group trip to Nashville for firearms training. The hosts express support for Maj Touré’s work in gun rights advocacy.
The discussion centers on Patrice Cullors, co-founder of Black Lives Matter, and her public admission of being a "trained Marxist." Moe introduces the term "Black Ink" to categorize the business and political side of racial activism, including figures like Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson. They examine an interview conducted by Jared Ball where Cullors discusses the origins and radical gender politics of the movement.
Apple CEO Tim Cook is criticized for using the phrase "great leap" in a memo regarding racial progress, echoing Mao's "Great Leap Forward." The hosts argue that corporations are paying millions into racial justice funds to obtain a "Black Ink pass" and avoid being canceled. They joke about creating a "Black Ink" punch card for donors to track their social transgressions.
