Description

Trump’s DHS has finalized a rule that narrows how discrimination can be penalized in federal grants, shifting the standard from harmful impact to proof of intent. For free and unbiased Medicare help, dial (724) 264-8281 to speak with my trusted partner, Chapter, or go to https://askchapter.org/roland Paid Partnership Roland Martin and the panel break down a DHS policy change that removes disparate-impact liability from DHS and FEMA grant frameworks, making it harder to penalize policies that disproportionately harm minority communities without proof of intentional discrimination. They connect the move to a wider effort to weaken civil-rights and economic-rights infrastructure built over decades. The discussion also examines minority banking, disadvantaged-business programs, affirmative action, and the long-term cost of dismantling protections Black communities fought to secure. #RolandMartinUnfiltered #BlackStarNetwork #CivilRights #BlackEconomicPower #DHS #Trump Black Star Network Partner: Chapter Chapter and its affiliates are not connected with or endorsed by any government entity or the federal Medicare program.

It was reported that there is a resurrection of the KKK. They are our neighbors, coworkers, church members. On the police force. In every fabric of society.
