Giving aid to cause-ADOS

Since I’ve been studying this “new” political path, it is hard to disgust that fact that so many Ados people are fighting so hard against reparations-redress and trans-formative policies. 

These people I speak of are the ones that have a blue check on twitter and some work for major media outlets.

I assumed that if they listened to Yvette Carnell* and Antonio Moore** and what the data shows, understanding that they are not just “lip” service…and with the information that they share would begin their own research on the topic and why the racial wealth gap happened and what you can do politically in your local community by changing individuals (that happen to work in the government), with the data and information one has collected. And that being in front of a "specific" cause does help in making change(s) for your community. Ados message has always stressed the importance of having black politics in your daily life.


My thought is they have to stay “willfully ignorant” in order to keep the positions they are in.
These people are in “high positions” because they were chosen to be there.

      Recognizing that does not diminish the hard work and dedication one did to achieve their goals.
It is just the owners of these platforms they work for, can decide to take all that away…just because you are no longer needed.

You (micro) have no protections. (This is where the government comes in). Ados (macro) are demanding protection(s) for us ALL. IN turn will help you (micro) be protected.
I don’t understand how any of this advocacy- “giving aid to cause” harms them…

Unless… they are afraid…





SN: the current protection laws that were supposed to protect us from discrimination have been flatten or outright gutted, and if you have a case you will need capital to hire an arbitrator to take the case on your behalf…

*Yvette Carnell is a political commentator and has work for the democrat party for many years.

**Antonio Moore has been a Defense attorney in Los Angles Ca. for over 10 years.

The National Baptist Convention of America backs ADOS

We ADOS now have the full backing the NBCA...(ADOS101.com)



The National Baptist Convention of America (NBCA) has announced its support of the American Descendants Of Slavery (ADOS) movement to gain reparations for Black Americans. The convention has a membership of over 3.5 million, according to NBCA President Samuel Tolbert Jr. (source)



This is really great news and this is also “more wind” behind us to push for redress, and reparations for our people. Ados.

Earlier today, I seen a comment from an ados person saying that they were now “done with the ados movement”…((when ados is a lineage not amovement and you can’t “run” away from that))

He was upset that the church is in full support of us, “saying that he feels they are all about the money and they will somehow co-opt the movement.”

 The information that is shared and understood about ADOS ppl is that our focus is a  black agenda…we are connected thru our lineage therefore, there will be Christians, Muslims, Gays, Straight, Bi-sexual, some with one leg and some with no legs, some with weave, some without However, our focus is reparations and trans-formative policies to help our people.

As we are going on this path, we have to learn to “stand on our square”…we don’t have time to argue about which path a person should or should not be following, and we have to learn “to get-out our feelings” when it comes to politics.

It’s not that I don’t understand the mistrust of the church, however; I also have read enough of our history to understand that the church is where our ancestors met up, so they were inform about what was going on in the community.
I also understand, how over time that has changed. However; look at what they are doing NOW.

Sure walk in cation, we all should when it comes to any one or organization that “says our name”.

However, all of this is a political learning process…
And we have to stop throwing away the baby with the bath water.
