One host issues a public apology to Hotep Jesus for previously calling him "stupid," acknowledging the racial weight that word carries when used by a white man toward a black man. The discussion then pivots to political strategy, arguing that the "lowest voter turnout in history" would be the most powerful signal to both parties that the black vote must be earned with specific, non-negotiable tangibles.
Moe critiques the strategy of the organization Color of Change, led by Van Jones, regarding their approach to black millennial voters. He questions why the organization focuses on "activating" or "engaging" voters rather than pressuring candidates to change their policies. The segment highlights the tension between institutional Democratic activism and the specific demands of the electorate.
The ADOS movement focuses on specific lineage tracing back to American chattel slavery and sharecropping rather than broad racial categories. The mantra "cut the check" emphasizes that reparations are a debt for services rendered, not a social program subject to government oversight on how the money is spent. The hashtag #Tangibles2020 represents a growing segment of voters who refuse to participate in elections unless specific, tangible benefits are offered to the ADOS community.
