I will

But (speaking of Obama) he is doing things. Look up the work the Obama foundation is doing, the donations he’s made to foundations. I’m assuming you’re looking for the next MLK or Malcom X. Leaders like that would be nice right now, but some people are still doing progressive things in their own way

But someone like Obama is a private citizen now. I’m not saying he’s as powerful as you and I but, as private citizens, there’s a reason why you and I are not trying to mobilize communities to the extent that you want Obama to do it. Maybe try to get his attention through your actions as a start

I get it. Maybe I just decided to stop relying on politicians. Something can be done, for sure, but we need to get up and get it done with it without a political leader

Going to the pole tomorrow to vote in local elections, supporting my local community through financial investments and volunteering, buying from small local businesses, donating to causes that I believe in, and any other ways that I can think of. What about yourself, Nettie?

What do you want them to do? Design the plan

Of course an ex president like Obama could do more for the country, but so can you. Instead of asking more of him, I think we’d better spend our times by continuing what he stood/stands for through our actions 👌🏾 Good luck!

That makes sense, but I think they are doing these things. Maybe they’re not leading protests, but they are visiting schools and inspiring the children. They are taking interviews. They are building foundations (I’m mainly talking about Obama cause I only care about him).

Leading what? Obama did two phenomenal terms but then yall gave the country to Trump right after. Leading what?

If only…

Good point

“So I didn’t understand anything” I love that you still went to supporting!

Haha all day I’ve been thinking of a girl from my past who I’m still romantically obsessed with. Imagine my surprise when I come to bluesky and see this post 🤣

Yes, sonderbug does mean that 😅

Noted 🤣🤣
