*Should Black America Boycott Republican Vivek Ramaswamy in his bid for the Republican Presidential nomination for the 2024 election? Some think so and are voicing it on twitter.

For those that don’t know Vivek is the Republican millionaire running for President using, or some say misusing quotes from Dr. King to allude to post racialism.

According to Wikipedia Ramaswamy was born in 1985 in Cincinnati, Ohio, and raised there. His parents emigrated from Vadakkencherry, Palakkad, Kerala, India. His father graduated from the regional engineering college in Kerala and worked for General Electric as an engineer and patent attorney, while his mother graduated from Mysore Medical College and worked as a geriatric psychiatrist.

Ramaswamy also had a viral debate on CNN with Don Lemon on the history of the NRA and Black America during which he and Lemon stated,

“Black people secured their freedoms after the Civil War; it is a historical fact, Don, just study it, only after their Second Amendment rights were secured,” Ramaswamy said.
“You are discounting a whole host of things that happened after the Civil War when it comes to African Americans, including the whole reason that the Civil Rights Movement happened is because Black people did not secure their freedoms after the Civil War,” Lemon responded.

We have seen a history of boycotts from the Montgomery bus boycott of the Civil Rights movement to the Donald Trump presidential inauguration being boycotted by John Lewis. Now after the most recent political campaign stop by Vivek at a Black barbershop to make a show of the recent issues with migrants some are seeing a need to call for a clear message for Black America to boycott Vivek #BoycottVivek. In that recent stop it appears that Ramaswamy played up identity politics while getting a haircut at a Black barbershop in Chicago and having a loaded political discussion around migrants. Many on twitter have started to respond with anger over the possible consequences of the political photo op on Black America.
