It Seems to
IM2 didn't change things. The mods did. Take it up with them.
Yes.

They changed it for him, in order to benifit him and in conjunction with him.

As for the op, though, I would say that intelligent people recognize the intelligence of others and unintelligent people only view lock step agreement in all things as an indication thereof.

We have gone completely to the side he railed against. And we have spent tens of trillions of dollars and pushed minorities into employment with lower test scores and even abilities for a half century at least. Test scores do not tell the true picture totally of course, but there is an effort. And there are people who have of course been denied because of what is called privilege. On the issue we have to stop with the guilting and believing it is one way of racism when it is two ways and entails more responsibility in behaviors.
Dumb whites were getting jobs and into college long before 50 years ago. The response to racism isn't racism and the people making claims of racism on both sides are the people wo refuse to take responsibility for their behavior.

I guess that's why 35% of blacks have left the dem plantation altogether and 53% of blacks say the dems have abandoned them to their own devices in favor of leftist academia doctrine.

:oops8:
Stop using the term plantation. 35 percent of blacks haven't left anything. The majority of blacks are independents.
 
Well, let's see: Booker T is a retard.
Booker T made the dumbest comment of all time from a black leader when he called out the race hustlers like ur2.

I disagree with all his race baiting posts.
Is that OK with you?
The term race hustler was made up by a white racist and used to race bait other whites. That race hustler was Rush Limbaugh.

Washington made the comments during Jim Crow. He did that to please whites. Washington was a race hustler.

You might want to stay out of conversations that are above your pay grade.
 
And exactly what does this have to do with what Washington said?

I think Booker T Washington had good intentions.
He was trying to work within the existing system.
But he was gullible in believing what White Leaders were telling him.
Just be patient, these things take time.
Upsetting the established system will not help you.

Whites were content with a two class social system. They actually believed blacks were happy with the way things were.
Booker Washington telling blacks not to make waves only fed their views of the existing social structure

Booker was one of the black elites at that time. And many black elites in that era had problems.

I guess pound cake existed then too.
 
That was not a fact in 1910 during Jim Crow and it's not one now.
There are always race traitors, and he's simply pointing out that there were Black race traitors at that time. You can't deny a fact. You're trying tho...
 
What am I supposed to be hiding from?

"Now I'm sure the usual suspects are going to jump in and try to teach me from their perspective of being white just how great these comments were for black people and how blacks like me should think just like Washington."

And just like an obedient little puppy, you show up with words from a black retard as if I'm going to take your advice about being black.
Let's see here - you are repeating your own taunting words from the op, but in big, bold fonts this time in case we missed the trolling the first time. Then you call another poster an "obedient little puppy" while referring to a black intellectual as a retard.

It's sure a good thing you have that mod on speed dial, isn't it?

There is no such thing as a "race traitor". We are not defined by our race, but by our individual qualities.
 
“There is another class of colored people who make a business of keeping the troubles, the wrongs, and the hardships of the Negro race before the public. ... Some of these people do not want the Negro to lose his grievances, because they do not want to lose their jobs ... There is a certain class of race-problem solvers who don’t want the patient to get well.”
Booker T. Washington

In the history of black leadership in America, this comment by Washington is perhaps the dumbest of all time. Now I'm sure the usual suspects are going to jump in and try to teach me from their perspective of being white just how great these comments were for black people and how blacks like me should think just like Washington.

These words were written in 1910 or 1911. Jim Crow was the law of the land. Lynching was going on, blacks could get killed and the killer go free. Washington watched various black towns and neighborhoods burn to the ground. Sharecropping was going on with blacks basically returning to slavery. Black codes made it possible for blacks to be arrested for nothing and end up as part of convict leasing. I don't think Washington could vote without a poll tax since he lived in the south. With all that going on, Washington made his comment.

It was the dumbest comment a black leader has ever made.
I believe what Booker T Washington stated is absolutely right, and there are a couple of posters on this very board
that proves what he stated.

I believe a posting could have been made in a respectful way that would have appealed to the intellect and which discussed the relative appropriateness of his comments vis a vis his own time and ours.

Instead, we got the typical flame bait filled with chest thumping, preemptive derision and impossible to ignore polemics.
