Go Ethnics Go !?!?

Communities of Colour reject the tactics of certain politicians in their targeting of particular ethno-racial groups in pursuit of so-called "very ethnic votes" !?

We're more than just a vote. Take a stand. Have a say !! VOTE !!

Colour of Poverty - Colour of Change


LYRICS -

They never ask you what you do around here
Don't wanna know your name, or if you really care
See the truth behind the lies, and reject their words of fear
So beat it, just beat it !!

You have a choice, you better speak when you can
Don't wanna be an ethnic, be Canadian
It's time to take a stand, get a ballot in your hand
So beat it ! You want a fair and equal chance !!

CHORUS -

Just eat it !! eat it !!
baklava, wada, okra
springrolls, samosas, chopped up or sliced
It doesn't matter, cassava or rice
Just eat it, eat it......

They're out to trick you, never show their real hand
Don't wanna be a ploy, you better take a stand
It's time to have your say, let's all do what we can
So beat it !! just beat it !!

We have to show them that we're more than a vote
We have our views and voice, our rights are not a joke
They call us when they need us
To join their campaign bus,
So beat it, we are not an ethnic vote !!

So beat it !! eat it !!

Repeat CHORUS

You DONT have a say, the Electoral College votes to elect the president, not the citizens. Its always been that way. So that vote that you cast every 4 years, thinking you're electing the president, they don't do anything with those votes, its pointless.

Brilliant. Harper & Jason Kenney thought they could get away with slicing & dicing Canadians. They have used hate, they have used fear & they have used wedge issues to divide the electorate. This video gives me hope. Maybe the Conservative strategy won't work. Maybe it will blow back on the brutes. Harper's government actually wants more immigrants to be classed as temporary workers, meaning they can't bring their families & can't become citizens. They are to be used as cheap labour only.

One of the best vids of this Election! GREAT! Democracy is *NOT* ethnic. Democracy is not black, brown, white or yellow or purple. DEMOCRACY is *NOT* "bickering". Democracy is *NOT* "squabbling".

The Ethnic-using Woman-hating Homophobic Con-nenaderthals on the Hill should visit Tahrir Square and ask Mubarak for new jobs...

See PETER RUSSEL's video, too! Beautiful....

thank you!
