Early in the 2016 electioneering for the seat of U.S. president, the most visible advocates for either candidates were women.

In Donald Trump’s camp were the likely open white nationalist “good ole’ girls” and the unlikely African supporters like YouTubers Diamond and Silk and Omarosa Manigault.

In Hillary Clinton’s camp were the so-called progressives, entertainers like Beyonce and feminists, some of whom were left with her as their ONLY candidate for a chance at presidency, after fake socialist Bernie Sanders failed to win the Democratic Party primary.

Nearly a month has passed since the election of Donald Trump to the U.S. presidency. The white left and Democrats are pissed, while immigrants and Muslims are fearful.

Some Africans are lamenting over the Trump win and sopping up in delusion the last remaining month of Obama’s regime. Others, such as black feminists, are giving a tongue lashing to the general white women population who “betrayed” the imaginary sisterhood and opted to vote overwhelmingly for sexist Trump over their beloved Clinton.

The issue of names and naming is really powerful.

It’s so deep and profound, more than what most of us ever think about. Most of us don’t think about our names, where we come from, what our names mean, anything like that, which in and of itself is a problem. But we never think about that.

Names are really important because names connect you to a past, to your history. Names are not just things floating out there in the world, but if you want to even look back and see where you came from and dig into your roots, the name is fundamental. It comes from someplace.

African Internationalism is a theory that explains the world, as well as the place and future of Africans in it. African Internationalism recognizes that capitalism, born as a world economy, has its origin in the assault of Africa and in the global trade of African captives as well as the ensuing European onslaught on most of the world.

Donald J. Trump, billionaire, reality celebrity and Republican won the U.S. presidential elections on November 8, 2016 and will become the 45th president of the United States.

The defeat of Democrat Hillary Clinton has come as a blow to imperialism as many can be seen on colonial news crying after the election results. 

As the African People’s Socialist Party (APSP) has always explained, elections are nonviolent contests for control of the State between different sectors of the bourgeoisie.

CINCINNATI—A Ohio judge has declared a mistrial in the case of a white former killer pig, Ray Tensing, who murdered Samuel DuBose during a traffic stop last year.

Samuel was terrorized and shot in the head by Tensing after the murderous cop pulled him over.

Anti-Trump protests have broken out across the U.S. as the result of Donald Trump's recent selection as U.S. president. 

New York City and Chicago are seeing the largest protests as protesters in New York City blocked busy Fifth Avenue. Students in Los Angeles well as in Texas walked out of class while cities like Boston, MA; Seattle, WA and Pittsburgh, PA also broke out in protests.

The mostly-white protesters, upset at Trump's win, are shouting "Not my president" in defiance of the presidential results. Indigenous (Latino) immigrants and Muslims activists also made their presence known in the streets.

The illusion of U.S. democracy is very dependent on the peaceful transfer of power and these protests are not good for a healthy ruling class narrative. This is the crisis of imperialism unfolding before our eyes.

Since the violent defeat of the Black Liberation Movement of the Sixties by white power counterinsurgency, where leaders of the movement were murdered or imprisoned and then replaced with neocolonialist puppets, African people throughout the world have been told that voting will set us free.

We’ve heard sentiments like “black people died for us to have the right to vote,” that attempt to strong-arm Africans into voting out of duty or obligation.

In 2016, however, the Black Revolution rejects the notion that voting anywhere on the planet Earth will set us free.

Black Lives Matter activist Deray McKesson did an interview with the Washington Post on October 25, 2016 where he gave his official endorsement of Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton for president of the U.S.

Deray McKesson became famous after the Ferguson, MO and Baltimore, MD rebellions. He was given a platform by colonial media because he gave a watered down and apologetic narrative on the murders of African people by pigs around the country.

He could be seen on CNN and MSNBC talking about body cameras and police reform and has even said that “all cops aren’t bad” when talking about police terror.
