Around the 32 minute mark of the following video Chappelle-Nadal goes in:
Here’s the thing … and I’ve got to say this. Black women in America are the most-disrespected group in our society. We are expected to vote for one party and what do we get in return? Go into our inner-cities. How many buildings do you see in decay? How many buildings where kids go to school and that school is unaccredited? How many kids go to school and the clothes are dirty? How many kids don’t have any books? How many parents don’t have any child support? How many parents have to work two jobs? How many parents are worried about where they’re going to live next month? And we don’t have people who are willing to stand up for the black woman, and the black woman happens to be the foundation of the democratic party … and we’re still disrespected.
Chappelle-Nadal is exactly right. We need more people standing up for black women. The harsh reality is that we cannot look to the government, black politicians or any political party. We have to fend for ourselves. We should take Chappelle-Nadal’s impassioned speech as a call to arms.
