When white politicians come on Roland Martin show. He asked those questions to help them understand that they must know the issues. Moreover, the understanding in order to be able to address and solve them. Because Roland Martin is giving questions that they would not get from other outlets.
Make these folks earn our vote, and make them explain their agenda.
I love STRAIGHT TALK, I was getting too much fluff.
I love how Roland Martin ask these questions specifically pertaining to the black community, black institutions and black professionals!!!! You go Roland! I called Senator Osseoff about you and John Boyd!!! I told him to come to your show and talk to you Roland!!! Reach out to him again if you haven't already.
The SHUTDOWN. Create A SHOWDOWN.
Great interview, Mr. Martin.
It's unfortunate that this took so long, but thank you for finally getting her to finally talk about black people and how she intends to help us. It was very apparent in her answer that this has NEVER come up before. I hope to hear and see more on this topic before AND AFTER the election. Now I feel inspired to vote for her.
Those who don’t learn from history is doomed to repeat it…history reveals the fall of every great empire was made possible not from outside forces but rather sabotaged by treacherous enemies from within! Are we witnessing the rapid decline of ameriKKKa in real-time along with all its bad actors?!
Boycott all holidays!
