Chapters

Discussion on the historical relationship between the Democratic Party and Black voters, the potential shift in Black voting patterns towards Donald Trump, and the influence of race in the 2024 election.
  • Democrats heavily rely on Black turnout, modeled after Obama's 2012 strategy.
  • Some polls indicated a potential shift of Black voters towards Trump, but numbers have seemingly reverted since Kamala Harris entered the race.
  • The Democratic Party's reliance on the Black vote stems from a history of exploitation and control, dating back to slavery and the Jim Crow era.
  • Black voters' loyalty to the Democratic Party is attributed to a combination of cognitive dissonance and Stockholm Syndrome.
  • The 'Iron Triangle' of Black preachers, politicians, and civil rights workers plays a role in maintaining Black support for Democrats.
  • School choice is presented as a way to break the cycle of government control and liberal ideology in the Black community.
  • The gender gap in voting is emerging, with Black men showing less support for Democrats than Black women.
  • Black men are increasingly recognizing the Democratic Party's support for policies they oppose, such as those related to family structure, gender identity, and religious freedom.

Vince Everett Ellison is a political commentator, author, and documentarian focusing on the intersection of American politics, race, and religion. Born on a cotton plantation in Haywood County, Tennessee, Ellison admired how his parents lifted him and his seven siblings out of poverty through hard work and their Christian faith. In today’s episode, we discuss the Democrats’ most depraved policies, Trump’s appeal to black voters, and Ellison’s reaction to the Chicago DNC. We also explore why progressive politics thrive on arrogance, and how humility can be found in religious faith.
