Insults to Black History

Original Article

Many whites are ashamed, saddened and feel guilty about our history of slavery, Jim Crow and gross racial discrimination. Many black people remain angry over the injustices of the past and what they see as injustices of the present. Both blacks and whites can benefit from a better appreciation of black history. Often overlooked or ignored is the fact that, as a group, black Americans have made the greatest gains, over some of the highest hurdles, and in a shorter span of time than any other racial group in history. For example, if one totaled up the earnings and spending of black Americans

Often I wish Dr. Williams was not such a gentle soul. His whispers have been drowned out in angry rhetoric as has the voice of minority interests. Seeing whites riot as if they speak for blacks is disheartening especially when blacks are pandered to by the violence and destruction of their own neighborhoods as if this was actually best for them.

Many whites don't assume blame for their problems or their whining or their history. Much of that history was built on the backs of general American achievement except for some outstanding black men like George Washington Carver, Thomas Sowell or Ben Carson who are truly great men. The Tuskeegee Airmen are true heroes not the BLM terrorists. Black spending done with EBT cards provided by working people is not a matter of pride I have a black friend, a military veteran and a computer programmer with whom I have worked side by side and he doesn't agree with any of this tearing down of society that they think they will use to achieve progress status and I like to believe that most blacks are like him.

I never owned a slave. None of my ancestors owned a slave. The real black history is that of Benjamin Banneker, Elijah McCoy, Dr Charles Drew, and other pioneers of science and invention. Those are lives that mattered. The lives of felons who resist arrest--not so much. BLM might as well run full-page ads calling for more black felons.

One of the crying shames in this nation's education is that a lot of whites understand black history better than some of the black community. We accept it and we welcome it. It is a shame that thanks to liberals controlling our educational system, blacks don't know their historic contributions to this nation. They only know what democrats tell them, and what they tell the black community is simply so much self serving garbage. Some of the comments here today are so excellent. There are real black heroes in our history, if only the blacks in this nation knew more about them.

I was born in 61. My descendants came to the US after the civil war, or fought on the side of the North. I'm not ashamed, because slavery and oppression have been with humanity since the beginning and will continue until its end. The strong, regardless country, race or religion have always subjugated the weak. Was it right? No....but that's the way that it was. Indians enslaved other Indians, Africans enslaved other Africans, Europeans enslaved other Europeans until the found easier pickings elsewhere and Asians enslaved Asians. What does anger me is that we don't get any benefit for the progress that we've made in a relatively short period of time. Systemic is so pervasive, that people have to invent episodes of racist activity and then declare themselves as victims. Its to pervasive, that they have to invent bogus statistics, its so pervasive that they have to find new words, phrases, gestures, images etc to be offended by. Its to pervasive that the claimants have to cite an institution banned 150 years ago and something that they themselves never were subjected to.

The problem is they don't teach true black history in schools. Do the talk about the NAACP was created by white people in NYC? Do they mention there were also blacks in the south that owned slaves and worked them for farmers for profit? Do they teach that the Civil Rights Act of 1964 was carried by the Republicans? When the Act was passed LBJ made the comment, 'If this passes every n-word in the country will vote Democrat for the next 100 years. Just the use of the n-word tells you the character of the person.

No, we aren't. I am living in the here and now. I have never owned a slave, you have never been a slave. As I told one black woman "If you are always looking in the rear view mirror, you will never enjoy today or see the possibilities of tomorrow"

One of the most despicable things about the Biden administration is that, even as it doubles and triples down on the COVID restrictions it wants for Americans, it’s utterly unconcerned about the diseases flooding across the border along with the illegal aliens Biden is unconstitutionally welcoming in. The president and CEO of Greyhound Lines, though, is demanding that, at the very least, its workers and other passengers get protected from the COVID so many illegal aliens bring with them. From the start of his campaign, Biden weaponized the Wuhan virus against Trump. Informed and intelligent people realized very quickly that Trump was moving with extraordinary rapidity

Biden has issued Executive Orders that ban enforcing immigration law while simultaneously inviting in a new wave of illegal immigrants. These EOs also suspend deporting illegal immigrants, even those awaiting trial for felonies and other serious crimes, and signal that all new arrivals will be eligible for social benefits such as healthcare. Cesar Chavez’s struggle in the 1970s and ‘80s can help explain the impact this will have on labor markets in general and working-class Americans in particular. Chavez understood that illegal immigration diminishes workers’ earning power.

It began with throw pillows. Pillows shouldn't matter much, but like every decision we make now, they matter more than you think. The old sofa had to go. It had lasted 25 years, by some miracle. The old sofa was U.S.-made. Only 20% of today's furniture is. It was expensive; the store owner told us we'd be able re-upholster it down the road, though that would be expensive, too. He was right on both counts. He retired. His kids run the store now. We managed to find a new sofa, also made here. A different color. So we needed throw pillows.

Republican lawmakers ridiculed House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s ongoing deployment of National Guard troops and police as well as fencing and razor wire around the U.S. Capitol during speeches at the Conservative Political Action Conference in Orlando, Fla., on Saturday. “I wouldn’t be surprised if we start quartering soldiers in the committee hearing rooms,” said freshman Rep.

Maybe we can start unreasonably seizing and searching members of Congress. Oh, wait, we’re already doing that in House chambers,” Boebert added,

While House Speaker Nancy Pelosi cited precedent and prerogatives of current presidents to justify putting a majority of Democrats on a so-called “1/6” panel to investigate the Jan. 6 Capitol riot, others in her party have another reason why they don’t want to seat many Republicans. Quite simply, some Democrats say, they don’t trust the post-Trump GOP to seriously probe the incident because they believe, without evidence thus far, that some Republican members were either in on it or responsible for it. “We do not owe delusional deniers a role or a platform in a commission designed to try to ferret out extremism and violence

This fortune cookie lived up to its name. Ernesto Sorzano’s Chinese-takeout dinner paid off big-time when he played the set of lucky numbers in his fortune cookie on a North Carolina Powerball ticket, according to UPI. Sorzano said he used the numbers when buying a $3 power-play ticket — and they ended up matching four of the winning ones, landing him $500,000. The Florida resident — who is in the process of moving to Huntersville, NC — told the news agency he’ll use his winnings to buy a new house there. “This was a good investment,” Sorzano said of his rice and shrimp dinner, plus dessert cookie.

Speaking about the riots that erupted in cities nationwide at CPAC Friday, Cotton stood by his June 2020 piece, which caused fury among Times staffers. “I wrote an op-ed, it had a very simple message, very simple, very common sense message.

Activist judges pushing a far-left agenda have been legislating from the bench, and a handful of Supreme Court Justices committed to upholding the Constitution is the only thing stopping the left's total transformation of the country. For that reason, Democrats have been lying in wait for the opportunity to take out the Supreme Court. Democrats are no longer hiding their disdain for the high court. Democrats openly admit to hostile court-packing plans that would stuff the Supreme Court full of activist judges who would then sign off on everything Democrats couldn't sneak past the voters.

“He who pays the piper calls the tune.” It’s a hard, fast rule in the world of politics, which is precisely why we must always be vigilant against the corrupting influence of private money in our public electoral process. There was a great deal of consternation expressed throughout 2020 about funding nationwide elections in the midst of a deadly pandemic. Fortunately, our public institutions were up to the test. Unfortunately, we also experienced the reality of large-scale private election funding for the first time — and in the process discovered the reason we had never allowed it before. Wealthy individuals and corporations, including Google and Arnold Schwarzeneggar, gave money to election officials

Her bill HR 1 trashes the U.S. Constitution in an attempt to rig the system and make it virtually impossible to elect a Republican president or Congress again. It’s a power grab. The bill eviscerates state voting laws and forces all the states to conform to a set of rules that includes automatic voter registration. Anyone who goes to a DMV or applies for food stamps, Medicaid or other social services, or attends a public college will be automatically enrolled to vote. Noncitizens are obligated to identify themselves and opt out,

I’m probably second to none in my dislike for Meghan Markle. There’s something unattractive about a mature woman marrying into the British Royal family with one of the world’s most expensive weddings, hanging out with the Queen, living in insane luxury…and then whining non-stop about the horror of her life. There’s something even less appealing when that woman accuses the Royal family of race hatred. And the problem is that, when it comes to that left-wing diva, Meghan Markle, it’s hard to believe most of what she says. After weeks of hype, CBS finally televised Meghan Markle and Prince Harry’s interview with Oprah.
