PBS, Vanessa Williams spark backlash over ‘black national anthem’

[Dusty]

DigitalDrifter Describe American please. What is America now and what was America in the past and what do you think America will be in the future?

America is worth fighting for and as the oath says domestic enemies have to die too

 

[Indeependent]

Indeependent Yeah, the left wing people are all about name calling and trolling people and bringing on negativity. To be the bigger and better person, for yourself, don't succumb to that attitude they give. Chaos breeds chaos and calm breeds calm.

They want you to fight and be bad. They don't like to be the only ones dark.

They will try to take you off topic 99% of the time and the other percent they will call you names and bash you. Take their responses lately and ignore the negative and just stay cool and they will hate you for it but you will feel better as a person. I'm telling you, try it.

The TrumpBots have been far more dignified than the ProgBots, but it's easy to be a ProgBot when you're on an anonymous message board.

Dusty Hahaha why do you people have to die? I was reading the other day how somebody strapped Dynamite to their body and walked into a crowd and blew themselves up. I did a podcast on a girl that married one of those guys and they wouldn't let her back to her original country of Germany I think. Nobody should die. Religious people are crazy for killing

 

[Mark Richard]

Dusty How do you know if she just doesn't have a fat p#$&y?

 

[Tommy Tainant]

Black folks were doing well up until the 50s or 60s. The father would go to work to support his wife and kids. There wasn't that many single mothers. There were some black communities that did really well from themselves that either got destroyed by drugs or white mobs or welfare. Socialist programs is what really hurt the black society. But overall, for those that want to succeed, they succeed very well. The media makes them look very bad. Guess who the media is controlled by too. Hahaha strange, I know

There was just a thing on TV with a successful doctor that had a son that went to school and was taught that he was a victim. The doctor in response was telling people that he was successful and black, and that the media and people at school should not make people out to be victims.

Still the best Penthouse issue ever. Not even close.

I heard it driving home last night on XM Radion (NPR carried it).

Nothing was wrong with the National Anthem. Conservatives simply have too much hate and too little time on their hands .

Our Anthem is for ALL Americans. Having separate ones divides us even further.

In 1776 was black folks considered as Americans?

Were the Irish and Italians?

Were they in America in 1776?

No.
They were lied to later in Europe that the streets here were paved with gold and when they arrived they were locked in chains and built the railroads.
They were then left to fend for themselves and started businesses unlike you know who.

Well we were here in 1776 and we weren't given any damn independence. Also Italians and Irish were eventually excepted as white and it didn't take a Constitutional Amendment, Civil Rights Act or Votings Right Act to make them bonfide citizens either. Also their treatment was NOTHING in comparison to what black folks have had to endure in this country.

Are you enduring anything right now in this Country? Are you being oppressed? I don’t dispute the factual historical events you sited. 1776 is celebrated because it laid the groundwork and basis to become the Country we are today. Was it imperfect? Did people suffer? Mistakes made? Yes. We learned from those mistakes and made changes.

Contrast US to those countries throughout the Globe (including, African Nations) that continue to accept keeping Blacks and Browns in chains and have the fucking audacity to beat US about our History and imperfections.

Superbadbrutha Who's the guy talking about historical stuff? I'm lost in the conversation and I don't know why people are talking about history here. Am I in the right thread?

Boo hoo! Someone's great-great-great grandfather was a slave and so I am on inter-generational welfare!

Never in history has a faction done so little to advance themselves as blacks have since 1865.

It is hard to advance when one group has fought so hard to make sure you slowly advance. Please tell me another faction of the population that has suffered in this country as black folks have. I'll wait for your answer.

I suppose you believe that everyone who owns a business wants their White employees to succeed and start a rival company.
What parallel universe do you live in.

Answer the question, not come with some bullshit. What has happened to black folks goes far beyond owning a damn business.

Since he hires trespassers and off-shores most of his work, he calls for reparations so you don't go begging him for job.
Have you submitted your resume to BET?
