Malcolm X, later known as El-Hajj Malik El-Shabazz, stated, “The white man will try to satisfy us with symbolic victories rather than economic equity and justice.”
A social media meme gives us an example of symbolic victories in a picture. The image shows a little boy skipping over several labeled stairs as he climbs them. He skips over Voting Rights, Stopping Police Violence, and Reparations. The boy lands on Making Juneteenth A National Holiday.
This image illustrates what El-Shabazz so eloquently stated above.
Safeguarding the voting rights of black people will most likely get more black people elected into office and that is why the voting rights of black people have been limited.
Stopping police brutality and police harassment will save more black lives and keep more black people out of jail. Jail is the only place where slavery in legal in the U.S.A.
Black people have been denied reparations since the end of the Civil War
