It is happening folks. How many of you are aware of what’s going on? The normalization of President elect Trump is being carried out by media outlets across the country. Today’s normalization tactic is Trump meeting with the black folks. We covered Kanye meeting with Trump earlier today. CNN has reported that he has just met with NFL HOF legends Jim Brown and Ray Lewis.
In the spirit of seeking first to understand, then be understood Jim Brown has long been a supporter of civil rights and the empowerment and economic improvement of black people in America. The “Reverend” Ray Lewis while one of the best players to ever do it, is somewhat dubious in his positions as they relate to social justice. It’s never 100% clear if it’s about the cause or about Lewis.
In a media session following the meeting with Trump Lewis says “it’s not about black and white” but about coming together to help revitalize struggling people and communities. Does he really believe that? More importantly, does he believe that Trump actually cares about that? Time will tell.
