President Biden on Monday said that all Americans must speak up because diversity is being attacked, remarks he made while marking 60 years of the Lawyers’ Committee for Civil Rights Under Law.

The event comes just days after a deadly shooting in Jacksonville, Fla., killed three Black Americans, which is suspected to be racially motivated. The president bashed attacks on diversity such as book bans, which are happening in states including Florida and are targeting books about slavery and Black history, among other topics.

“Now is the time for all Americans to speak up when history’s being erased, books are being banned. Did you ever think we’d have this conversation here, at this time?” Biden said in remarks. “Diversity’s being attacked.”

    Biden is clueless and hasn’t done shit for the average person. And damn sure Biden guy behind stop the busing doesn’t give two shits about blacks unless its hurting his chances at reelection.

    He hasn’t done shit to stop states from busing migrants which the federal government should be easily put stop too.

    Plus he wants more money for the police which we all know is captured by white supremacy.

    And his administration hasn’t said word one on cop city.

    He can shut the fuck up because people have protested every time this happens which is almost everyday he doesn’t say shit.

      Idk you can like or hate him but he’s done a lot of stuff. See: The horribly named inflation reduction act.
