Join us LIVE TONIGHT for Rap It Up LIVE with Pastor A.F. Riggins on BlogTalkUSA to discuss Donald Trump's "outreach" to African American voters which includes the speech he gave in Wisconsin last week, speaking on his views about the issues and concerns facing "the African American community" to an almost entirely homogeneous audience in which Black and Brown Americans were not in attendence. At one point Trump said, "You're living in poverty, your schools are no good, you have no jobs, 58% of your youth is unemployed! What the hell do you have to lose (by voting for Trump)?"  For the record, the "58% African American youth unemployment" is an extremely misleading statistic because it includes high school and college students aged 18-21, which is not an age group typically included in reference to "real unemployment" statistics.  By this standard, "white youth unemployment" is 49%. This is insulting to those of us who have worked twice as hard in obtaining an education and the efforts to obtain finances to be educated or pay for our education...only to be told we are uneducated and need an old rich pompus racist white man to help us as if we are in the 1800s or 1940s...that's how I feel on a Sunday about Trump. And yes I'm still a Bible toting beliving preacher...if you don't like what I said delete me period! This is not about Democrats, Republicans, Conservative or Liberal...this is about our dignity as a people and a nation.
