The Gantt Report
By Lucius Gantt
The 2024 election ushered in a new kind of American voter, the “uncommitted”. Allegedly, some qualified United States voters who practice the Islamic faith stated they would not cast votes for any Presidential candidate.
Many of the uncommitted instead voted for the President-elect and against the only candidate who called for an immediate end to fighting in the Gaza Strip and a two-state solution to the Palestinian-Israeli conflict.
Black Americans should know and understand ALL Western religions have African origins. If there are Muslims who don’t know who “Bilal” was and how close, he was to the Prophet Muhammad. Perhaps, ignorance would explain why some in the faith would vote for a white racist who favors “Muslim travel bans” and vote against a Black candidate.
When asked by news reporters why some Muslims voted for a candidate who used military strikes to kill Muslim military leaders, more than one Muslim said, “Kamala would be worse!”
Does anybody love us? People of the world who hate each other so much seem to hate Black people more.
Black people are the most hated ethnic group in America. When a trailer park woman was asked if she would change lives with Oprah, live in her house, fly in her plane, and hang out with celebrities, the trailer park woman said, “I want Oprah’s money, but I wouldn’t want to be Oprah.”
Let me tell you something you should already know. Africa is the center of the world and Black men and women who write and talk about our historical greatness will be constantly shunned and criticized.
Our brothers and sisters of African ancestry can disagree and even fuss and fight, but we must defend and support our kind!
We should support the peo-ple, groups, faiths, ethnicities, businesses, and so forth that support us.
In my mind, “uncommitted”, is very committed. I have been committed to equal rights and justice for Palestinians ever since I learned what went down in Palestine in 1948.
The idea that a yes vote for the President-elect and a no vote for the candidate that sought an independent state for Palestinians; is an “non-commitment”, so to speak, for the whole world.
Some Gantt Report readers will never get it. No one, no group, no religious faction or belief, and no fake friends, no fake supporters, no fake providers, and no fake committers will love us like we should love each other.
If you do, say, and write the right things, you will be disliked and hated by individuals with devilish and wrongful intentions.
Gantt Report hate doesn’t bother me one bit.
Believe it or not, the Black men and women who have stood up for you, protested for you, and who have spoken out for you like Martin Luther King, Malcolm X, and Harriet Tubman were once disliked too.
Don’t ever be afraid or hesitant to support the Black men and women who risk their lives, their careers, and well-being for you!
Support the people who are committed to you, committed to Africa, and committed to Pan-Africanism!
