Event Summary

Awareness Campaign for Missing Women

Context: A community effort focusing on raising awareness about missing women, specifically in Oklahoma where there are 121 reported cases related to sex trafficking.
Objective: To campaign for missing people, especially Blacks, Hispanics, and Native Americans, by circulating flyers and actively searching in neighborhoods.

Stance: Emphasis on being a non-violent, Bible-based movement. No affiliation with any other Israelite groups.
Mission: Prevent any acts of violence and encourage contacting authorities if there are any potential threats.

Welcome to another show. Hosts: Captain Shem, Officer Matthew, Officer Mikhail, Officer Solomon, and Officer Micah.
Main Topic: Why voting is wrong for the Israelites, framed historically starting from 1865.

Lyndon Johnson's Role: References were made to a video meant to explain policy changes and historical context; Civil Rights Act of 1866 was key.
Reconstruction Era:
- Post-Civil War, a period known for promising citizenship and equal rights for all, particularly granting Black men the right to vote with the 14th and 15th Amendments.
- Remarkable Achievements: Over 2,000 Black officeholders served at every level of government.
Challenges and Setbacks:
- Despite initial progress, Southern states implemented Black Codes and Pig Laws to restrict freedoms of African Americans, essentially leading to a systemic rollback of rights.
- The federal government enacted Enforcement Acts to try to combat the infringement of Black rights.

Black Codes and Pig Laws:
- Introduced to heavily penalize small infractions and create crime out of unemployment, reiterating the systemic oppression even after slavery ended.
Era of Disappearance:
- From significant political presence to extreme reduction by 1900 due to KKK actions and systematic legal restrictions.

Voting Rights Act of 1965: Enacted to restore and assure voting rights that were systematically suppressed despite being constitutionally granted a century earlier.
Lyndon Johnson: Key figure in signing this act, which was influenced by international pressure and televised civil rights struggles.

Disillusionment with Popular Vote: Two of the last three presidents (Donald Trump and George W. Bush) were elected without winning the popular vote. Highlights a fundamental flaw where popular vote does not directly elect the president.
Electoral College: Americans vote for electors who then form the electoral college to select the president, showing indirect influence of individual votes.

Kamala Harris and Joe Biden:
- Harris's controversial track record, including refusal to prosecute officers in high-profile cases and her early contribution to the enforcement of same-sex marriage laws, raises concerns among activists.
- Despite her recent nomination as VP, skepticism remains on policy influence and representation of minority interests.

Proactive Measures: Community efforts to raise awareness, especially around high-risk groups and missing persons cases.
Continuous Education and Engagement: Emphasize the need for socially informed movements and community education about historical context and contemporary political affairs.

Solidarity in understanding historical context of voting rights and ongoing systemic efforts against minority communities.
Continued emphasis on community-driven awareness and action to combat social injustices.
Encouragement for informed participation and not just superficial engagement in the political process.
