‘No Kings’ Protestor: Black People ‘Don’t Need to Participate’

“I confronted a No Kings protestor on the lack of diversity at the protest, she told me she's here because black people can't be,” Podcaster Nate Friedman explains, introducing video of an interview he conducted at Saturday’s “No King’s Day” protest in New York.

“It seems like there’s a lack of diversity here today, that it’s mostly people like you and I,” Friedman tells a White female protestor at the event, prompting her to claim that Black people – and only Black people – would be arrested at the rally:

“This is not, this is not, it is not for Black people, for people of color to get out on the street. They’re at risk when they do that. If anybody’s going to get arrested here, it’s going to be a Black person.”

“It is not safe for them and they don’t need to participate,” the White protestor added, claiming that “We need to walk in their name.”

It’s also a racist scheme to require voters to show identification, the woman, who says she “voted Democrat in the womb, claimed:

“It’s 100% a tactic to control the population and prevent people from voting so that the gerrymandering can work so that white voters can vote in White Christian males.”

“I would slit my throat” if forced to vote for one of two Republicans, J.D. Vance or Marco Rubio, the woman declared. “Yeah,” the protestor confirmed when asked if she was serious.

“Medical care in this country is racist,” too, the self-professed retired doctor claims in the full half-hour version of Friedman’s coverage of the protest posted on his YouTube account.
