I'm your host, Pastor Greg, and it is my sincere pleasure to welcome to the program. He is the co-chair of the Project 21 Black Leadership Network that is a part of National Center for Public Policy, and it's always my pleasure to welcome him to the program. Horace Cooper is with us. Horace, welcome. Good to have you.
Hey, thanks so much for having me on the program today. Absolutely. Well, look, this is a very hot topic, and it's interesting because one of the communities of people that has been very supportive in their voting of the Democrat Party has been black Americans. But black Americans are tending to be really wary of taking the injection and with good cause because there's been a lot of negative reactions.
Talk to us about what you know about that, Horace. Well, see, I'm not really surprised at the left taking black America for taking an advantage or taking a black America for granted. Black Americans have disproportionately supported the Democrats in Washington, in state office, and a number of other places. And yet there has not been a lot to be seen as a consequence of doing so in the case of the vaccine mandate or vaccine usage.
It would have helped their efforts if both President Biden, when he was a candidate, Vice President Kamala Harris, when she was a candidate, had not discouraged people, particularly black Americans, from utilizing the vaccine. But the irony is, and I hear my perspective is this, we are supposed to inform people, we are supposed to educate people, and we are supposed to persuade people. That's how America works. We don't dictate to them. We don't mandate them. We let adults make decisions about their lives. I'm not a cigarette smoker.
I've never been a cigarette smoker. However, I don't believe it's appropriate to simply pass a dictate that says, no, you can't smoke. I think we should encourage people not to smoke, but we should recognize that adults get to make these decisions. The left rejects this idea, and they believe that they know better than adults do about their own bodies. This runs a file of what is often said when the most innocent among us, the unborn, are being slaughtered in abortion clinics. Then we don't get to hear about the importance of, because they tell us, you can't restrict that because it's my body, my choice. But in almost every other setting, it's not your body.
It's not your choice. They're hypocrites. Black Americans, interestingly, are disproportionately suffering the consequences of the vaccine mandate. Black Americans are more likely to work in state and federal government.
Black Americans are more likely to work in these frontline roles, whether it's in law enforcement or EMT or even in the service industry. Black Americans disproportionately work in these positions, even in the restaurant industry, and Black Americans are being overwhelmingly laid off or fired, depending on the jurisdiction, even as the state government, the local government, the federal government, even corporations, should be accommodating people's genuine faith-based objections. None of those are happening, and ultimately, the Supreme Court is going to intervene. The problem is, how many people will lose their job? How many people's homes will be foreclosed before ultimately happening? In addition, you talk about invasions of someone's privacy as well. Look at what's happening to landlords, too, when you talk about property rights. Landlords now are being told that they can't collect rent, and yet the banks are not being told they can't foreclose on those landlords.
That's exactly right. Let me mention again, though, this disproportionate job impact. So many people on the left say that America's unfair. This isn't true about America. They say America's unjust. This is a lie about America. They say America singles people out on the basis of their race to punish them. That's also a lie, and I say this not because I just like to be a contrarian.
I'm just talking about the data. When you actually look at the number of civil rights lawsuits and complaints that are filed, Black Americans are filing them at record lows. When you look at the number of people in the C-suite or higher in corporations, Black Americans are highly and increasingly being represented, not in a decrease. When you talk about voting, Black Americans in some states are voting at higher levels than the population at large, and there is no evidence that fewer Black Americans or a smaller percentage of Black Americans are voting.
If you compare 2010 to 2020, over that 10-year period, nationwide the percentage of Black Americans voting has increased, not decreased. But if we were to believe the lie about America, and I think too many Black Americans do believe this lie, that has led a number of Black Americans, particularly men, to start their own businesses. What's called the gig economy. They provide services.
It could be lawn mowing, it could be plumbing, it could be delivery services, any number of opportunities. And it is the gig economy that is being hurt the most by the left with their efforts, with the vaccine mandate, with the regulation and the assault. You asked me before about Blacks and Democrats, and I said the Democrats take Blacks for granted.
This is just another example. The narrative that they put forth is that it's systemically racist to say anything about IDs to vote. And the left won't even ask Black America what they think about this, because Black America says in survey after survey, we need ID.
We believe in ID. Let me just tell you, we're watching, America's been watching, over a million plus, maybe as much as one and a quarter million people have come into this country illegally this year. When they settle into communities, they're going to use a disproportionate share of the education resources. Since there's not a mastery of English language, extra resources are going to have to be provided for them.
24% in Del Rio were identified having COVID symptoms. There's a high likelihood that because they've come from places where there's not the kind of health and insurance services that exist in America, they're going to be using the community clinics and hospitals disproportionately. The people who end up paying for this are going to be the citizens who live in these communities before this group arrives. Increasingly, those are Black Americans. And if on election day, Black Americans go in and say, hold on, hold on, we need to place some restrictions and some limits on who's using the schools, who's using the public clinics, who's using the rehab centers, all of a sudden the ghost voter, the illegal voter, comes in and swamps the vote of those actual bona fide citizens. They're watching this, and yet the left continues to say, it's America that's unfair to Blacks.
When I look around and all I can see is, it's the left that's unfair to Blacks. What they'll do, too, is that then they will say that some white racist is the reason why the Black vote is being underrepresented. They won't say that the illegals came in and overwhelmed the vote.
Heavens no. They will again continue to try to divide us, Horace, and they'll say that there is a racist, oppressive regime that's trying to keep Black people's vote from counting. The mysterious white racist has been the boogeyman that the left has used for a number of years. The problem, as I see it, is this. Even as this claim is being made, more and more Black Americans are saying to themselves, particularly Black Americans under the age of 45, are saying to themselves, what have we gotten? This bargain that we've made with the left isn't working out for us, it's not working out for our children, it's not working out for our communities.
So the left has responded not with, hey, we've got a better program, we've got a better platform, we've got a number of things that we want to do to attract your vote. Instead, they talk about the boogeyman. The white racist is going to get you.
I am confident, based on my observations of America, more and more Black Americans are asking themselves about this mysterious boogeyman. They can't find him in their neighborhood. They can't find him at the school campus.
They can't find him in the workplace. They're not able to find him anywhere except when they go to a rally and hear the left speak. But the left has no option. For Hispanics, who are not in this country lawfully, there is an extensive platform. For the green radicals, there is an extensive platform. For the GLBPQIA community, there is an extensive platform. The left has put up all of these measures for all of these groups. For Black America, the best they've got is Defund the Police, which Black Americans say they don't want, and the racial boogeyman. Yeah, it's really interesting.
I want to switch topics. I don't know if you saw this or not, but Tesla had a lawsuit brought against them by an employee whose last name was Diaz, who was an elevator operator who actually wasn't working for Tesla. He was a contractor, but he had filed a suit four years ago claiming that Tesla allowed him to be racially targeted. But it turns out that he actually got into a fight with a woman who is a Filipino who also was a contractor. But here's the kicker. He was awarded $137 million, Horace. Did you see this story? Here's the thing. Do you remember David Hogg?
Yes. Remember that he was the kid that was involved in speaking out as the student leader in the shooting at his school and what have you? Remember how much money he was given?
I don't remember how much money he was given, but I know that he ended up being able to go to a very, very fancy school in the Northeast and started up his own company. And all of this has been a bust, by the way, but go on. Well, my point is that it appears that the left, because they're losing, you're mentioning it. Black Americans are saying, wait a minute, there is no boogeyman. This is all a lie. We've been lied to. And now they're trying to teach our children to hate other children predicated on the color of their skin. There are black American parents that are being called domestic terrorists because they're showing up at school board meetings saying, I don't want my kid taught to hate.
OK, they're losing the fight. My feeling is, is that this lawsuit right here is about funding the left's movement to keep propagating the lies about systemic racism in America. Does that make sense? That does make sense. Now, I expect that Tesla's going to appeal and I expect that the circuit court is very, very likely to issue a severe limit on this. But the whole circumstance, as you describe and as I'm familiar with, is bogus.
In my book that came out last year, How Don't Hunt is Making Black America Again, I have a whole chapter on the hate crime hoax that exists in America and a lot of black Americans are waking up to it. Amen. All right. Stay tuned. Horace will be back with us right after this. We're going to take a quick break. You're listening to Children's Generation Radio.

Trustednewspaper.com. Help the Epoch Times keep truth alive. I am in support of our military and believe that America should play a role in world security. I believe our Constitution was intended for a moral people and that the Bible contains the only true moral code. I believe we are all born sinners and that God in His grace and mercy sent His Son Jesus Christ to die for our sins. And that if we will confess our sins, He is just and righteous to forgive us our sins and cleanse us from all unrighteousness. I believe salvation is not just accomplished in a little prayer but that it is found in how that transformation is lived out. Jesus is to be the Lord of our lives and we should follow biblical precepts. This is not legalism or works but a life lived out in love and honor towards the one who died for my sins. Faith without works is dead and is no faith at all. I believe that we will fall and that we need to have a repentant heart and that God will ultimately bring us into perfect action through Jesus Christ. Spirit man perfected and soulish man in progress. I believe that we are not to live in guilt and shame when we fall but we repent and get up and move closer to Jesus. I believe that if our nation will repent and turn from wickedness that God will heal our land.
I believe that as a Christian I must occupy until He comes and that to call evil wicked and to warn about those evil acts is a part of the mandated Christianity. That to love also means to be willing to take the risk necessary to confront a friend with the truth in hopes that their heart will be turned because their life matters. Even if it means in that moment they will possibly hate me. It means that I must risk scorn to stand for truth and that I can never sit silently by while evil attempts to conquer the world. God is my everything and Jesus is the love of my life. That does not make me weak but strong, not silent but bold and not fearful but courageous. Therefore if you are my friend while we may not fully agree know that I share what I share because I care.
If you strongly disagree with these beliefs they are not debatable for me and you can if you choose unfriend me. I do not say this in anger but in love. I wish for you eyes to see and ears to hear that Jesus Christ is the only way to salvation and that God, not man, gets to decide what is truth, life and the way.
God bless you. And welcome back to Children's Generation Radio. My special guest is Horace Cooper and you can find him by the way at cgcontributors at the childrengenerationradio.com website cgcontributors.
Click on Horace's picture. You'll get over to the National Center for Public Policy and they have their Project 21 Black Leadership Network. He has also written a book called How Trump is Making Black America Great Again and Horace the sad, the truly, truly atrocious thing about this is that Joe Biden in eight months has really attempted to unravel all of the good that President Trump was doing for black America.
Oh, that's absolutely correct. As I mentioned in my book, black Americans, particularly men, are more represented in law enforcement than the population at large. Guess what has happened in the last six months? It is unbelievable how the gig economy has been crushed by all of the government shutdowns and that has disproportionately affected black America. If you were going to come up with a plan or a policy to hurt black America, I can't imagine how it wouldn't look like what we've had in the last 10 months of the Biden administration.
I can't think of anything either. And again, folks, you heard it here first. Mark our words, that Tesla lawsuit, that's about funding the leftist racist agenda.
That's a huge part of what they're doing. Get the book and a lot of what they're doing is uncovered by Horace in his book, How Trump is Making Black America Great Again. It is so relevant to understanding what the left is doing to create such horrific division amongst us. And folks, we should not be divided.
God created all of us, red, brown, yellow, black and white. Horace, thanks for being here. I greatly appreciate it, sir. Thanks for having me on. Back with more after this.
