An Ironic Fact about October 18th
October 18, 1767 - The Mason-Dixon line was agreed upon. Once the boundary between Maryland and Pennsylvania the Mason-Dixon line has also been known to reference the border between the free states and the slave states.
A source records that “the Mason–Dixon line symbolizes a cultural boundary between the North and the South (Dixie). However, for many people who identify as Southern, Maryland is not considered a Southern state, leading to confusion over terminology.
Originally "Mason and Dixon's Line" referred to the border between Pennsylvania and Maryland. After Pennsylvania abolished slavery, it served as a demarcation line for the legality of slavery. That demarcation did not extend beyond Pennsylvania because Delaware, then a slave state extended north and east of the boundary.
Also lying north and east of the boundary was New Jersey, where slavery was formally abolished in 1846, but former slaves continued to be "apprenticed" to their masters until the passage of the Thirteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution in 1865.”
The irony of the connection between this day and our topic today is that we wish to speak about Trump and Ice Cube’s Platinum plan. And the plan that Trump and Ice Cube have created has caused more division amongst an already divided country Some of the highlights that came from the pair’s conversations include a push for Trump to invest $500 Billion into the Black community as promised in the Platinum Plan, and to label the Ku Klux Klan as a terrorist group.
Ice Cube has tweeted statements that have left some side-eying him and others nodding in agreement.

"Family, make sure some of these educated fools who are always telling you what to do are really Black and not Greeks in disguise"
In regards to the criticism, Ice Cube has defended himself several times stating that he is not MAGA, and upholds his prior statement regarding the political parties in saying “I really dont see them pushing their policies in any particular direction”. Ice Cube has since made statements through twitter and has even gone on CNN to speak on the Platinum Plan. Ice Cube responds to those that disagree by stating “Every side is the Darkside for us here in America,” he tweeted in response. “Our justice is bipartisan.”
Please find the link to Ice Cubes interview on CNN and the Platinum Plan.
Our Black Party
In other news P. Diddy, aka Puff Daddy, aka Brotherly Love, aka DIddy has decided to start his own political party called Our Black Party. Diddy spoke with Charlamagne tha God on RevolTv. Diddy also gave an endorsement to Vice President Joe Biden and his running mate senator Kamala Harris, but not before stating that “The President needs to be banished”. Check out Our Black Party.
Excerpt from Our Black Party welcome letter:
Black Power is giving power to people who have not had power to determine their destiny.”
– Huey Newton, 1969
We envision a world where Black America has the power to determine our future. The mobilization of all Black people is key, and it is imperative that we strengthen our purpose by working together as a collective. If we dare to make an impact, then we must pick up where the civil rights movement left off. We can begin to fulfill the wants and needs of the Black community if we unify. But we begin this work now
What are your thoughts on Diddy's Political Party!
