Whites do have a role in stopping racism

[Bootney Lee Farnsworth]

I already did and know the truth. However, the only shame is that you are a closed minded racist who doesn't want to hear any other point of view than yours. So, since you don't want an honest discussion, I have bowed out. Adieu to you, as well.

If you're such an honest broker as you claim, check out the podcast linked in my thread A Discussion About White Supremacy In The United States and comment accordingly.

Every time I see your avatar:

I think of this:

Black are more likely to be murdered by other blacks. Maybe she should consider reality.
Just a thought.

I never heard a Black person say they were going to murder another person because they were Black. You do realize whites are more likely to be murdered by other whites right?

Wrong, not statistically. When the numbers are broken down by averages, blacks murder blacks more than any other race, and blacks murder whites, and violently assault them, more than any other race. Blacks are just genetically predisposed to be more violent than most any other race on the planet. Probably because they were just drug out of the jungle a few hundred years ago. They're more primitive than most other races that have grown into intelligent, civilized societies. Blacks just haven't gotten the jungle out of them, and probably won't, because they're not as intelligent as most all the other races. That's why so many of them only have the intellect to pimp hoes, play hoops, carry a pig skin across a line or sell drugs and be a gang banger. Oh... can't forget rapping.

All of this is incorrect off topic white racist bullshit.

 

[mudwhistle]

Do you think that democrats freed the slaves?

Forgive me, I'm trying to understand which history book you are using.

I'm referring to the tactic of "taking the high ground" and it working.

It didn't', and doesn't, work for the Democrats.

How do they take the higher ground?

Are we watching the same people?

In fact, they promote abortion. Tell me, do you believe Margaret Sanger was a racist?

Here is what she said.

“We should hire three or four colored ministers, preferably with social-service backgrounds, and with engaging personalities. The most successful educational approach to the Negro is through a religious appeal. We don’t want the word to go out that we want to exterminate the Negro population, and the minister is the man who can straighten out that idea if it ever occurs to any of their more rebellious members.”

I heard that there have been more black abortions than births.

Is Margaret smiling in the deepest corners of hell?

Besides saying "negro" (which was acceptable to Blacks at the time), what was racist about what she said? If Sanger was a racist why did she think the KKK were idiots?

Did you not read the bit about her wanting to "exterminate" negros?

And she loved to give talks to the KKK.

"I accepted an invitation to talk to the women’s branch of the Ku Klux Klan … I saw through the door dim figures parading with banners and illuminated crosses … I was escorted to the platform, was introduced, and began to speak … In the end, through simple illustrations I believed I had accomplished my purpose. A dozen invitations to speak to similar groups were proffered."

Margaret Sanger, as the rest of the elitists of her day, were racist and eugenicists. In fact, Hitler studied eugenic Progressive thought in the US which sparked him to do what he did in Germany. Scientists like Darwin were convinced that blacks were inferior.

Unfortunately for Progressive Eugenics, the Holocaust gave them a bad name and they had to lay low for a while.

In “The Pivot of Civilization” and “A Plan for Peace,” Sanger describes the eugenic value of eliminating persons – minorities, the sick, and the disabled – through sterilization or segregation:

Our failure to segregate morons who are increasing and multiplying … demonstrates our foolhardy and extravagant sentimentalism … [Philanthropists] encourage the healthier and more normal sections of the world to shoulder the burden of unthinking and indiscriminate fecundity of others; which brings with it, as I think the reader must agree, a dead weight of human waste.

Instead of decreasing and aiming to eliminate the stocks that are most detrimental to the future of the race and the world, it tends to render them to a menacing degree dominant … We are paying for, and even submitting to, the dictates of an ever-increasing, unceasingly spawning class of human beings who never should have been born at all.

The main objects of the Population Congress would be to apply a stern and rigid policy of sterilization and segregation to that grade of population whose progeny is tainted, or whose inheritance is such that objectionable traits may be transmitted to offspring[;] to give certain dysgenic groups in our population their choice of segregation or sterilization.

As we all know, racism was rampant during the dawn of the Progressive era. Black could not even play with whites in baseball.

Are you really that blind?

Had it not been for MLK, would we have Civil Rights?

I say no. I say that blacks fighting and dying in the streets would have either ended Civil Rights, or retarded the movement by decades.

I ask this because I see the Mohammad approach of hate for hate seen in the streets of Israel everyday as children go blow themselves up to fight their "oppressor"

Unfortunately, they never get anywhere but killed or oppressed.

Also look at Gandhi. He took the example of Christ and used it in his fight.

Shrug, it works.

The idea is to take the moral high ground and not let yourself sink to the morality of your enemies until you become no better, or worse, than those that oppress you. Then the weight of your moral superiority will eventually crush you adversary.

Democrats have fancied themselves as taking the high ground in politics forever, and look where it's gotten them.

It works huh?

Yah, right.

BTW, they still killed MLK.

And by "they" I mean whites.

Do you think that democrats freed the slaves?

Forgive me, I'm trying to understand which history book you are using.

Look, stop trying to play the party game. YOU are talking to black people. We say whites have been the problem. Both parties. Republicans haven't done shit and we were republicans first. Out of the150 years since we released from slavery, we were republican for almost 100 years and ended up leaving the party. So drop that political party bullshit because you republicans are not the ones.

The first Civil Rights legislation was passed under Eisenhower, a Republican

Civil Rights Act of 1957 - Wikipedia

Following the Supreme Court ruling in Brown, which eventually led to the integration, also called desegregation, of public schools,[1] Southern whites began a campaign of "Massive Resistance." Violence against blacks rose; in Little Rock, Arkansas where US President Dwight D. Eisenhower had to order in federal troops to protect nine children integrating into a public school, the first time the US federal government ordered troops in the South since the Reconstruction era.[2] There had been continued physical assaults against suspected activists and bombings of schools and churches in the South. The Eisenhower administration proposed legislation to protect blacks' right to vote.

The goal of the 1957 Civil Rights Act was to ensure that all Americans could exercise their right to vote. By 1957, only about 20% of blacks were registered to vote. Despite being the majority in numerous counties and congressional districts in the South, most blacks had been effectively disfranchised by discriminatory voter registration rules and laws in those states since the late 19th and early 20th centuries that were heavily instituted and propagated by Southern Democrats. Civil rights organizations had collected evidence of discriminatory practices, such as the administration of literacy and comprehension tests and poll taxes. While the states had the right to establish rules for voter registration and elections, the federal government found an oversight role in ensuring that citizens could exercise the constitutional right to vote for federal officers: electors for president and vice president and members of the US Congress.

Passage[edit]
The Democratic Senate Majority Leader, Lyndon B. Johnson of Texas, realized that the bill and its journey through Congress could tear apart his party, as its southern members opposed civil rights, and its northern members were more favorable. Southern senators occupied chairs of numerous important committees because of their long seniority. Johnson sent the bill to the Senate Judiciary Committee, led by Senator James Eastland of Mississippi, who drastically altered the bill. Senator Richard Russell, Jr., of Georgia had denounced the bill as an example of the federal government seeking to impose its laws on states. Johnson sought recognition from civil rights advocates for passing the bill as well as recognition from the mostly-Southern Democrats against civil rights for weakening the bill so much as to make it toothless.[3]

The bill passed 285-126 in the House of Representatives with a majority of both parties' support (Republicans 167–19, Democrats 118–107)[4] It then passed 72-18 in the Senate, again with a majority of both parties (Republicans 43–0, Democrats 29–18).[5][clarification needed] Eisenhower signed the bill on September 9, 1957.

Nice try.

Although the Act's passage through seemed to indicate a growing federal commitment to the cause of civil rights, the legislation was limited. Alterations to the bill made the Act difficult to enforce; by 1960, black voting had increased by only 3%.

Civil Rights Act of 1957 - Wikipedia

By 1964 you had a republican who was against civil rights- Goldwater. Todays republican party would not be for civil rights.

You had people in both parties against it. So what? You asked what the GOP had done since they freed the slaves and I presented something to you, but now that it does not fit your partisan belief system you ignore it.

Well Ok then, just keep voting D and see where that gets ya!

Am I saying that voting Republican is the answer? No, but what I am saying is that voting D is definitely not the answer either.

Why is it that Democrats like Harry Reid can say that Obama was elected because he was light skinned and without a negro dialect, and he can get away with that? However, someone like Trump never used such language or racist talk and he is a racist?

Black are more likely to be murdered by other blacks. Maybe she should consider reality.
Just a thought.

I never heard a Black person say they were going to murder another person because they were Black. You do realize whites are more likely to be murdered by other whites right?

Wrong, not statistically. When the numbers are broken down by averages, blacks murder blacks more than any other race, and blacks murder whites, and violently assault them, more than any other race. Blacks are just genetically predisposed to be more violent than most any other race on the planet. Probably because they were just drug out of the jungle a few hundred years ago. They're more primitive than most other races that have grown into intelligent, civilized societies. Blacks just haven't gotten the jungle out of them, and probably won't, because they're not as intelligent as most all the other races. That's why so many of them only have the intellect to pimp hoes, play hoops, carry a pig skin across a line or sell drugs and be a gang banger. Oh... can't forget rapping.

All of this is incorrect off topic white racist bullshit.

Sorry, but no, it's fact. I already knew you'd deny it... whatever.

Its freely available on google.

Then you should be able to easily prove your claim. And, to me, it makes sense because you're most likely to be murdered by someone you know. But, if you're going to be so disingenuous that you make claims with no evidence, you weaken your own credibility.

Why don't you do a search using the words white on white crime and find out for yourself? You whites here should be ashamed. You live under such delusions of grandeur and actually think you are sane.

I already did and know the truth. However, the only shame is that you are a closed minded racist who doesn't want to hear any other point of view than yours. So, since you don't want an honest discussion, I have bowed out. Adieu to you, as well.

Well if you that whites kill each other why did you ask for proof? Why were you stalling?

Because that is the right way to have a debate and discussion I also have no patience with closed minded people who refuse to discuss and just DEMAND people accept their beliefs with no question or critical thinking. It's not stalling, it's avoiding lazy shouting at each other, which bores me to death.

It was a trivial point that was common knowledge. You were obviously stalling.

Leaked 2015 Memo Told Dems: 'Don't Offer Support' For Black Lives Matter Policy Positions | HuffPost

Any of you see this? It is a secret e-mail the DNC gave all their politicians in 2015.

It said:

1. Not to promise BLM anything.
2. BLM was a radical group akin to a terrorist group
3. Not to use phrases like "all lives matter' and such.

So here is concrete evidence that they are playing you the fool.

Wakey, wakey eggs and bakey

I am the OP and the OP was about a white person who was protesting the murder of a black woman who was stabbed to death by a white man. It was not abut blacks killing each other or whites doing it. But blacks killing each other always gets bought up when you maggots can't deal with the truth of white crime. And if you already knew the truth, then you knew I wasn't making a claim with no evidence.

LOL! You think being the OP means you don't have to prove your points? I think you're at best a lazy thinker and at worse, you're not interested in a real discussion. It's obvious you are just as closed minded as that old racist, Bull Connor. I am sad for you.

It's obvious that you are another dumb ass white racist looking for a reason to call someone black a racist. I feel sorry for you that you suffer from such a severe case of psychosis. Harley always wants blacks to show proof then when he gets shown it he wants more poof, then you show him more proof and then you get told how you've never shown proof. So fuck that. I'm not playing racist white boy run around.. For you did not ask him tp prove anything when he made his comment on blacks killing each other.

You will, of course, believe what you want. And, sadly, I didn't see Harley's post. So, while I apologize for not calling Harley down, I still feel you are a a closed minded racist who doesn't want to hear any other point of view than yours. I RARELY call anyone a racist, but you are certainly a wonderful example of one.

Whites do have a role in stopping racism.

Anne Hathaway calls out white privilege in passionate post about 'unspeakable' murder of Nia Wilson
Erin Donnelly,Yahoo Lifestyle 7 hours ago

Anne Hathaway is using her platform for a powerful cause.

Outraged by the fatal stabbing of 18-year-old Nia Wilson by a white man, the Oscar-winning actress dedicated an Instagram post to honoring the young black woman. Wilson and her sister, who survived the attack, were stabbed at the BART MacArthur Station in Oakland, Calif., on July 22.

But Hathaway’s post was more than a passive tribute to Wilson — it was a call to arms and condemnation of those who hide behind their “white privilege” and fail to take action in the face of violence and racism.

Describing Wilson’s murder as “unspeakable,” the Ocean’s 8 star acknowledged her own privilege while calling for white people to step up.

Anne Hathaway paid tribute to the late Nia Wilson on social media. (Photo: Theo Wargo/FilmMagic)
“White people — including me, including you — must take into the marrow of our privileged bones the truth that ALL black people fear for their lives DAILY in America and have done so for GENERATIONS,” she wrote. “White people DO NOT have equivalence for this fear of violence. Given those givens, we must ask our (white) selves — how ‘decent’ are we really? Not in our intent, but in our actions? In our lack of action?”

She ended the message with the #BlackLivesMatter hashtag, as well as #AntiRacist, #NoExcuse,
#SayHerName, and #EarnTheRightToSayHerName.

Hathaway shut off the comments for the post, but that hasn’t stopped fans from responding. Many are now praising her as an ally.

Of course, Hathaway’s passionate plea received a fair share of critics. One troll called her a “self-hating white bitch who constantly does the most to get the acceptance and approval of black people online… so f***ing pathetic and cringey.”

“Saying white people will never feel fear like black people is wrong,” another critic commented under one of Hathaway’s older posts. “There’s thousands of white girls in the world who are too scared to leave their homes after they’ve been abused, raped, and trafficked by men. There’s many white girls who have been murdered by men. Like I get it you’re privileged as hell and think every white woman is the same as you but that’s now how it works. Racism is disgusting and white supremacy needs to die but some of the stuff you said is just wrong.”

Hathaway’s not the only celebrity to speak out for Wilson. Amber Tamblyn also posted about her murder this week, though some accused her of shaming white women.

Anne Hathaway calls out white privilege in passionate post about 'unspeakable' murder of Nia Wilson

I'll just add AH to my list of celebrities,
that can kiss my white ass!

I've asked before and I'll ask again....
What is this privilege, I'm missing out on?

Senseless murders occur every day,
this homicide isn't any different.

Black people live in fear...and white people don't
Is that so, maybe she'd like to leave her cushy confines,
and live in my area and then talk that shit!

White america is not racist, white individuals are racist

You can not stop hate, anymore than, you can create love

It's easy for these celebrities, to sit in the lap of luxury,
and use social media as an outlet to sound off,
but, until they step out from their own privileged world,
and step into the real world, where the rest of us live,
they need to shut their fucking pieholes!

Fuck Instagram, bitch....
take your ass to the inner cities,
to a homeless shelter, to a rehab,
to a soup kitchen/food pantry,...

Deal with your own demons of guilt,
instead of throwing the white race under the bus,
as you question your own decency, for lack of action!

Fucking bitch

When was Harry Reid elected president? And Trump has done worse and made worse comments.

Is Donald Trump Racist? Here's What the Record Shows

Is Donald Trump racist? That question has hung over the presumptive Republican nominee for president as he has called Mexicans “rapists” and proposed a ban on Muslims entering the U.S. Lately, though, the question has taken on more urgency as Trump has repeatedly publicly attacked the judge who presides over Trump University class-action lawsuits. Calling the American-born Gonzalo Curiel a “Mexican,” he said Curiel was therefore biased against him, and he added to the flurry of objections by suggesting that a Muslim judge might also be incapable of hearing a lawsuit involving any Trump entity.

In between these remarks he managed to offend by singling out a black man at one of his rallies, calling him “my African American” as if the fellow’s presence proved Trump was on the right side of the race issue.

For the long followers of Trump’s career, however, none of these incendiary remarks are especially surprising. Trump has a long record as a provocateur on matters of race and ethnicity.

It starts in 1973, when the United States Department of Justice went to court with a discrimination complaint against the Trump family business, which rented apartments across Brooklyn and Queens. Coming from the administration of Richard Nixon, who was hardly a civil rights agitator, the complaint was based on an investigation that found four different Trump employees confirming that applicants for leases were screened by race. One rental agent said Trump’s father had told him not to rent to blacks and that he actually wanted to reduce the number of African Americans in his buildings. Three doormen said they had been instructed to deflect blacks who came to Trump buildings to apply for apartments.

[Indeependent]

I clicked on you saying you were being sarcastic? You should screen shot that for proof.

Would you not agree that you are racist?

After all, racism is thinking that your race is better than another. Obviously you think this.

I've never claimed to be a racist but this thread really isnt about me.

Would you agree that you are a racist? Do you agree that the black race is morally superior to the white race?

Yes I agree the Black race is morally superior to the white race. Blacks taught the white race civilization on two occasions. Blacks never attempted to enslave whites nor hold them back in any manner like whites did and still do.

According to your history no. But according to history that is generally accepted, blacks sold their brothers into slavery.

I'm curious, do you have any evidence to the contrary?

AssLips has a site no one heard of.

 

[Indeependent]

That was white orchestrated and I have never been to Rwanda. I live here in the US where there are so many deranged white guys with guns.

What about the deranged black guys with guns? Violence isn’t one Sided issue. I’m sure Anne means well, but she is being disengenuous. The hashtag should be all lives matter.

Very few and far between. Plus they are deranged due to the constant racism they experience. Whites are just deranged because they cant practice their racist ideology without getting their asses kicked.

Few and far between? Really? They are only deranged because of Whitey. You pathetic liar. You can’t bring yourself to admit the truth. You are so tied up with your “ I hate whitey “ that you can’t see the facts. My God you self imposed victims are irrational.

Yes few and far between. I am surprised there are not more deranged Black people gunning down crowds of people due to the pressures they feel from this racist system.. Now why so many white boys flip out and kill people can only lead me to the obvious conclusion.

You’re an idiot.

And that’s being polite.

Out of the150 years since we released from slavery, we were republican for almost 100 years and ended up leaving the party. So drop that political party bullshit because you republicans are not the ones.

The first Civil Rights legislation was passed under Eisenhower, a Republican

Civil Rights Act of 1957 - Wikipedia

Following the Supreme Court ruling in Brown, which eventually led to the integration, also called desegregation, of public schools,[1] Southern whites began a campaign of "Massive Resistance." Violence against blacks rose; in Little Rock, Arkansas where US President Dwight D. Eisenhower had to order in federal troops to protect nine children integrating into a public school, the first time the US federal government ordered troops in the South since the Reconstruction era.[2] There had been continued physical assaults against suspected activists and bombings of schools and churches in the South. The Eisenhower administration proposed legislation to protect blacks' right to vote.

The goal of the 1957 Civil Rights Act was to ensure that all Americans could exercise their right to vote. By 1957, only about 20% of blacks were registered to vote. Despite being the majority in numerous counties and congressional districts in the South, most blacks had been effectively disfranchised by discriminatory voter registration rules and laws in those states since the late 19th and early 20th centuries that were heavily instituted and propagated by Southern Democrats. Civil rights organizations had collected evidence of discriminatory practices, such as the administration of literacy and comprehension tests and poll taxes. While the states had the right to establish rules for voter registration and elections, the federal government found an oversight role in ensuring that citizens could exercise the constitutional right to vote for federal officers: electors for president and vice president and members of the US Congress.

Passage[edit]
The Democratic Senate Majority Leader, Lyndon B. Johnson of Texas, realized that the bill and its journey through Congress could tear apart his party, as its southern members opposed civil rights, and its northern members were more favorable. Southern senators occupied chairs of numerous important committees because of their long seniority. Johnson sent the bill to the Senate Judiciary Committee, led by Senator James Eastland of Mississippi, who drastically altered the bill. Senator Richard Russell, Jr., of Georgia had denounced the bill as an example of the federal government seeking to impose its laws on states. Johnson sought recognition from civil rights advocates for passing the bill as well as recognition from the mostly-Southern Democrats against civil rights for weakening the bill so much as to make it toothless.[3]

The bill passed 285-126 in the House of Representatives with a majority of both parties' support (Republicans 167–19, Democrats 118–107)[4] It then passed 72-18 in the Senate, again with a majority of both parties (Republicans 43–0, Democrats 29–18).[5][clarification needed] Eisenhower signed the bill on September 9, 1957.

Nice try.

Although the Act's passage through seemed to indicate a growing federal commitment to the cause of civil rights, the legislation was limited. Alterations to the bill made the Act difficult to enforce; by 1960, black voting had increased by only 3%.

By 1964 you had a republican who was against civil rights- Goldwater. Todays republican party would not be for civil rights.

You had people in both parties against it. So what? You asked what the GOP had done since they freed the slaves and I presented something to you, but now that it does not fit your partisan belief system you ignore it.

Well Ok then, just keep voting D and see where that gets ya!

Am I saying that voting Republican is the answer? No, but what I am saying is that voting D is definitely not the answer either.

Why is it that Democrats like Harry Reid can say that Obama was elected because he was light skinned and without a negro dialect, and he can get away with that? However, someone like Trump never used such language or racist talk and he is a racist?

When was Harry Reid elected president? And Trump has done worse and made worse comments.

Is Donald Trump Racist? Here's What the Record Shows

Is Donald Trump racist? That question has hung over the presumptive Republican nominee for president as he has called Mexicans “rapists” and proposed a ban on Muslims entering the U.S. Lately, though, the question has taken on more urgency as Trump has repeatedly publicly attacked the judge who presides over Trump University class-action lawsuits. Calling the American-born Gonzalo Curiel a “Mexican,” he said Curiel was therefore biased against him, and he added to the flurry of objections by suggesting that a Muslim judge might also be incapable of hearing a lawsuit involving any Trump entity.

In between these remarks he managed to offend by singling out a black man at one of his rallies, calling him “my African American” as if the fellow’s presence proved Trump was on the right side of the race issue.

For the long followers of Trump’s career, however, none of these incendiary remarks are especially surprising. Trump has a long record as a provocateur on matters of race and ethnicity.

It starts in 1973, when the United States Department of Justice went to court with a discrimination complaint against the Trump family business, which rented apartments across Brooklyn and Queens. Coming from the administration of Richard Nixon, who was hardly a civil rights agitator, the complaint was based on an investigation that found four different Trump employees confirming that applicants for leases were screened by race. One rental agent said Trump’s father had told him not to rent to blacks and that he actually wanted to reduce the number of African Americans in his buildings. Three doormen said they had been instructed to deflect blacks who came to Trump buildings to apply for apartments.

Is Donald Trump Racist? Here's what the record shows

Trump has been misquoted. He did not put a travel ban on Muslims, despite what all the news sources you listen to may say. No, he implemented travel bans on certain terrorist countries which just so happen to be mostly Muslim, the same kind of ban Obama made without a peep from anyone. In fact, the ban does not effect about 90% of Muslims in the world today.

Secondly, Trump has never said that all Mexicans are rapists. No, he has repeatedly mentioned that criminals are coming over and need to be stopped. This does not mean that all Mexicans are rapists, but gangs like MS 13 are coming to the US and killing our kids. Again, he was misquoted.

As for the family business issue in 1973, this was against the family business, not against Trump directly. I could see Trump allowing some sort of segregation if he thought it could make him money, but I don't see him being a racist just because he hates minorities.

The bottom line is, Trump is nothing more than a money man who is a man whore. Before running for President, no one associated him as being a racist.

Sorry, I just don't believe it. As I said, Dims like Harry Reid have said much worse things with no peep from the media or people like you.

Again, look at the unemployment rate of blacks under Trump than before Trump. Are blacks doing better or worse?

How are blacks suffering under Trump?

What about the deranged black guys with guns? Violence isn’t one Sided issue. I’m sure Anne means well, but she is being disengenuous. The hashtag should be all lives matter.

Very few and far between. Plus they are deranged due to the constant racism they experience. Whites are just deranged because they cant practice their racist ideology without getting their asses kicked.

Few and far between? Really? They are only deranged because of Whitey. You pathetic liar. You can’t bring yourself to admit the truth. You are so tied up with your “ I hate whitey “ that you can’t see the facts. My God you self imposed victims are irrational.

Yes few and far between. I am surprised there are not more deranged Black people gunning down crowds of people due to the pressures they feel from this racist system.. Now why so many white boys flip out and kill people can only lead me to the obvious conclusion.

You’re an idiot.

Dont get emotional and get reported for trolling.

Trolling a racist?
The only reason you’ve never been BANNED is because you’re Black.

It's easy for these celebrities, to sit in the lap of luxury,
and use social media as an outlet to sound off,
but, until they step out from their own privileged world,
and step into the real world, where the rest of us live,
they need to shut their fucking pieholes!

This.
