ANOTHER BLACK MAN WITH HIS HEAD UP HIS ASS! - San Francisco State University Prof Says Jewish Pot is Making Black Men Gay

 

BLACK MEN: RACIST, VIOLENT, HOMOPHOBIC, ANTI-SEMITIC, ANTI-ASIAN, IGNORANT AND ALL SO ABORTED!



San Francisco State University Prof Says Jewish Pot is Making Black Men Gay

"It is Jewish genius that has helped… to weaponize the weed.”

Daniel Greenfield, a Shillman Journalism Fellow at the Freedom Center, is an investigative journalist and writer focusing on the radical Left and Islamic terrorism.

Wesley Muhammad believes that the U.S. government and the Jews are using marijuana to make black men gay. The “Pot Plot” is a popular theory in Muhammad’s Nation of Islam cult. 

At the Saviours Day Convention in Chicago, an official Nation of Islam event, Wesley Muhammad claimed that, "It is Jewish genius that has helped… to weaponize the weed so that it may effeminize the black male of America. And be clear, it is Farrakhan and the Nation of Islam that is standing in between the total demasculinization of the black man in America.”

Some years back, Wesley Muhammad's lecture, “How to Make a Homosexual: The Scientific Assault on Black America" was canceled at a Philly black beauty expo because of its hateful content. But what wasn't good enough for the 23rd Annual International Locks Conference, a black natural hair expo, is unfortunately all too welcome at San Francisco State University. 

It’s not too surprising that a black “wholistic” hair expo has higher standards than the most antisemitic university in America. Or that Muhammad fits in so well at SFSU.

"It is clear that the two most powerful lobbies in America - the Jewish and the Homosexual - are hellbent on the information in this lecture, "How To Make A Homosexualm (sic)" NEVER makes it to the public's awareness," Muhammad complained on Facebook.

San Francisco State University has however been happy to provide Muhammad with a platform despite no shortage of ethnically Jewish and gay people on the faculty and in the administration.

Wesley Muhammad's bio at the taxpayer-funded university notes that he is a lecturer in the Africana Studies Department of SFSU's College of Ethnic Studies. It mentions his publications in the Final Call newspaper of the Nation of Islam hate group, and his book, "Understanding the Assault on the Black Man, Black Manhood and Black Masculinity" which contains thoughtful chapters such as "Why Saggin is Faggin" and "Birth of the Black Man (God)". 

It also notes that Muhammad is a "helper of the Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan" and a member of the executive council of the Nation of Islam hate group, and mentions his role in Tariq Nasheed's Buck Breaking documentary which claimed that black people were a master race and that white slave owners turned black men gay.

"I thank the Honorable Brother Minister Farrakhan for granting me permission to return to the place that I love, the classroom,” a Facebook account with Muhammad’s name posted. “This Pestilence From Heaven has made it possible for me do the Labor that I love at the Headquarters of my Beloved Nation of Islam AND teach about Black Religion and the Black God in the Africana Studies Department at San Francisco State University." 

"All Praises Belongs (sic) To Allah," he concluded.

A course listing shows Muhammad teaching courses on “Black Religion” and “Malcolm X in the Context of Black Nationalism”. The courses are taught online which apparently allows Muhammad, a top official in the Nation of Islam, to teach remotely.

That the Nation of Islam killed Malcolm X only adds another layer to this obscene farce.

By describing the pandemic as a "pestilence from heaven", Muhammad echoed Farrakhan's remarks that the coronavirus was one of Allah's "great plagues". But Muhammad additionally claimed that "we've documented the first area codes that were devastated by coronavirus in America were Jewish area codes" implying that the virus was aimed by Allah at the Jews. 

Muhammad gloating about the coronavirus that made it possible for him to teach remotely

A lecturer celebrating the coronavirus and claiming that black gay men are the products of a Jewish conspiracy may seem out of place on today’s college campuses where a Chinese composer was forced out of the classroom for showing an Othello movie and at Yale an American Indian student faced the threat of sanctions for a party invite touting fried chicken, but there are two sets of rules. And at SFSU, the bigots have always enjoyed the second set.

In the 90s, Khalid Muhammad, another Nation of Islam figure, was invited to deliver a speech by the Pan Afrikan Student Union which advertised tickets as being $7 for students and $15 for "Zionists, Uncle Toms and other white supremacists." During his speech Muhammad ranted about "hook-nosed, bagel-eating, lox-eating, perpetrating-a-fraud so-called Jews" and urged his racist audience to "use violence when necessary." 

These days though Nation of Islam officials aren’t just SFSU campus speakers, but lecturers.

It’s all part of the ugly atmosphere of antisemitic hatred that has been mainstreamed at the public university where taxpayers pay the bills for the professors and groups that hate them.

SFSU was also where, more recently, Muhammad Hammad, the president of the General Union of Palestine Students, was investigated after making violent threats toward Jews.

San Francisco State University had been ground zero for campus antisemitism. It was where Hatem Bazian, the co-founder of Students for Justice in Palestine, the hate group that now has chapters on many campuses, got his start. A column by the coordinator for SF's Jewish Community Relations Council described the scene as "Hatem Bazian and a group of about 25 students storm the offices of the student newspaper, the Golden Gater. They destroy hundreds of copies of that day's edition. They yell anti-Semitic and racist epithets in the newsroom".

Since then not much has changed.

A lawsuit filed more recently in 2017 by Jewish students charged that, "SFSU has not merely fostered and embraced anti-Jewish hostility — it has systematically supported these departments and student groups as they have doggedly organized their efforts to target, threaten, and intimidate Jewish students on campus and deprive them of their civil rights and their ability to feel safe and secure as they pursue their education.”

Earlier this year, SFSU's Rabab Abdulhadi, the faculty advisor for GUPS, took part in a seminar featuring a terrorist airplane hijacker after having already met with that same terrorist during an SFSU funded trip. No wonder that SFSU was one of the universities singled out by the David Horowitz Freedom Center as one of the “Top Ten Schools Supporting Terrorists”.

At San Francisco State University, the question isn’t whether it’s an antisemitic campus, but just how antisemitic it is. And even by SFSU standards, the “pot plot” is a new low. At San Francisco’s premier public university, students can not only interact with faculty who support terrorists, but who believe that the Jews are using marijuana to turn black men gay. 

How low can SFSU go? Wesley Muhammad makes it clear that there’s no low too low.


Comedian Dave Chappelle’s The Closer: A racist


tirade disguised as stand-up comedy

Chappelle Netflix special is 'hate speech disguised as jokes,' advocate says

Comedian Dave Chappelle’s The Closer: A racist tirade disguised as stand-up comedy

On October 5, veteran US comedian David Chappelle premiered his latest stand-up comedy special The Closer on Netflix.

Chapelle’s 72-minute special, however, is not comedy so much as it is a racist rant. No other major American entertainment figure in recent memory has openly advocated anti-Semitism and gloated over racist violence directed against Asians, whom he foully chooses to identify with the COVID-19 pandemic, in this manner.

Dave Chapelle in "The Closer"

He recalls being ill with COVID-19 and watching videos of black people assaulting Asian Americans, asserting, “I couldn’t help but feel like, when I saw these brothers beating these Asians up, that’s probably what’s happening inside of my body.”

Amid a ferocious campaign by the fascist right to demonize China, anti-Asian hate crimes have surged in the United States. In many instances, those engaging in violence against Asian Americans invoked the libel that China was responsible for the COVID-19 pandemic.

Immediately following his anti-Asian comments, Chappelle likened Jewish people to an invasive alien species: “So they come back to Earth, and they decide they want to claim the Earth for their very own. Pretty good plot line, huh? I call it ‘Space Jews.’”

Chapelle roots these remarks in his advocacy of racial identity politics. As he says, “Gay people are minorities, until they need to be White again.” Chapelle holds a view of the world in which racial and sexual identities are locked in a zero-sum game, so that an advance in gay rights or women’s rights is a defeat for black rights.

The New York Times’s columnist Roxane Gay, a race and gender zealot, condemns Chapelle’s special as a “joyless tirade of incoherent and seething rage, misogyny, homophobia and transphobia.” However, she goes on to claim that Chappelle “delivers five or six lucid moments of brilliance.” She praises his “interesting and accurate observation about the white gay community conveniently being able to claim whiteness at will. There’s a compelling observation about the relatively significant progress the L.G.B.T.Q. community has made, while progress toward racial equity has been much slower.” That is, Gay agrees with Chapelle’s premises but perhaps not all his conclusions. It is worth noting that she says nothing about Chapelle’s anti-Asian and anti-Semitic observations.

In 2017, Gay gave proof of her anti-democratic outlook when, in the face of criticisms about the destruction of careers and lives in the #MeToo witch-hunt on the basis of unnamed, unsubstantiated accusations, she complained about “a lot of hand-wringing about libel and the ethics of anonymous disclosure.”

It is not an accident that Chappelle finds himself squarely in the anti-Semitic camp. Practitioners of black nationalist ideology have frequently made common cause with white supremacists and other political filth, as have proponents of Zionism and Jewish nationalism, for that matter. The Nation of Islam, which notoriously conducted meetings with the Ku Klux Klan in the Jim Crow South and praised American Nazi Party leader George Lincoln Rockwell in the late 1950s and early 1960s, is also known for its violent anti-Semitism, Holocaust denial and anti-gay rhetoric.

In an earlier day, Chappelle established himself as a commentator with an acerbic wit who could choose deserving targets and developed a youth following in particular as a result. He is best known for his hit three-season run of Chappelle’sShow (2003-2006) on Comedy Central. Chappelle famously abandoned the series and a lucrative contract with the television station due to his criticism of the show. While many of the show’s segments were vulgar and backward, his skits lampooning former-President George W. Bush’s efforts to sell the war in Iraq did capture an element of the criminality and gangsterism of the administration.

Chappelle’s personal and political background is worth a comment. Born on August 24, 1973 in Washington D.C. to parents William David Chappelle III and Yvonne Seon, David Khari Webber Chappelle has lived firmly ensconced within an upper middle class African and African American milieu. His father, William, attended Ivy League colleges and taught music while serving as dean of students at Antioch College in the town of Yellow Springs, Ohio, where Chappelle himself owns large amounts of property.

The elder Chappelle was involved in civil rights and protest groups, including Help Us Make a Nation (H.U.M.A.N.), which sought to “address institutional racism and discrimination,” according to the 365 Project. Chappelle’s mother, Yvonne, worked for a time in the government of the Democratic Republic of Congo’s bourgeois nationalist government of Patrice Lumumba. Notably, she later worked in the United States Department of State. She then founded a Black Studies Center at Wright State University.

Chappelle (net worth $50 million) introduces The Closer by declaring, “I’m rich and famous,” followed by the explanation that the “last 17 months were hell and I cannot imagine what everyone went through.” While this elementary acknowledgement of the socially disparate impact of coronavirus may be honest, the pandemic has had an accelerating impact on society, sharpening class conflict.

Whereas the working population has responded to the pandemic with a still-growing strike wave against the profits-before-lives policy of the capitalist leaders, the ruling class and its well-to-do hangers-on have responded by whipping up fascistic and racist demagogy to divide and confuse the working class. This has gone hand in hand with the homicidal drive to force teachers, students, workers and parents into unsafe workplaces and schools to resume production amid record COVID-19 infections and deaths.

The movement of the working class, which has revolutionary implications, is attracting the most thoughtful and progressive layers of the middle classes to its side and repelling the more selfish and degenerate affluent elements. It is the responsibility of the former to reject the racist garbage that bourgeois society is secreting from its pores and to fight for the international unity of the working class of all nations and backgrounds.

One does not know which is more disgusting, Chapelle’s gloating about violence against Asian Americans or the declaration by the New York Times, which claims to be America’s “newspaper of record” that such a tirade contains moments of “brilliance.”

Netflix Defends Comedian Dave Chappelle Against the Cancel Culture Bullies

Lenny Bruce would be proud.

 

 14 comments

Stand-up comedian Lenny Bruce stood up for his right under the First Amendment to deliver cutting-edge comedy to audiences, irrespective of its offensive content. He was working against impossible odds at the time. After being convicted of obscenity charges in New York in November 1964, stemming from his performance at a Greenwich Village café, Bruce was blacklisted by nightclubs across the country for fear that they would be caught up in his legal troubles. Bruce died a broken man at the age of 40.

In 2003, 37 years after his death, Bruce received New York State’s first posthumous pardon, which former Governor George Pataki granted as “a declaration of New York’s commitment to upholding the First Amendment.”

Lenny Bruce did not live long enough to see the path he forged for comedians of future generations, who wanted to make audiences laugh at themselves and society with controversial routines. However, not all is copacetic in today’s toxic cancel culture world.

For example, while no longer facing arrest and conviction for saying what is on his mind, one of today’s most controversial comedians is in the crosshairs of cancel culture’s self-proclaimed enforcers of politically correct speech. He is the Emmy-winning black comedian David Chappelle.

Thankfully, however, this time the bullies are not getting their way. Chappelle is pushing back against them in his comic routines. Netflix, which has been presenting his specials under a multiyear package deal, is standing by him. Lenny Bruce would be cheering Chappelle and Netflix on.

The latest flashpoint is Chappelle’s special entitled The Closer, which first aired on October 5th. This program has infuriated transgender activists and their supporters, inside and outside of Netflix. They accuse Netflix of providing Chappelle a platform for alleged transphobic hate speech.

Chappelle aligned himself with another target of cancel culture because of her transgender comments, the best-selling author of the Harry Potter series J.K. Rowling. Rowling was lambasted for objecting to the use of the politically correct phrase, “people who menstruate,” rather than using the normal word “women” when talking about menstruation.

Rowling expressed what should be an obvious and non-controversial point: there are two biological sexes, male and female. As a matter of course, biological men don’t menstruate. But you can’t say that anymore without coming under fire from the cancel culture bullies. 

"They canceled J.K. Rowling – my God," Chappelle said in defense of Rowling during The Closer comedy special. "Effectively, she said gender was a fact, the trans community got mad as [expletive], they started calling her a TERF [trans-exclusionary radical feminist]." Chappelle added that he identifies as a "TERF" himself.

“Gender is a fact,” Chappelle said in reference to the biological differences between men and women. "Every human being in this room, every human being on Earth, had to pass through the legs of a woman to be on Earth. That is a fact," Chappelle observed.

Some Netflix employees were enraged and demanded that their employer sever its ties with Chappelle and remove The Closer from its lineup.

One trans employee tweeted that Chappelle’s special “attacks the trans community, and the very validity of transness.” The employee attributed violence against transgenders to supposedly harmful speech without presenting any proof of a causal connection.

But Netflix’s senior management did not cave. Co-CEO Ted Sarandos wrote a memo to employees explaining Netflix’s position on freedom of expression and declaring that “we have a strong belief that content on screen doesn’t directly translate to real-world harm.”

“Our goal is to entertain the world, which means programming for a diversity of tastes. This member-centric view has driven our growth over the last 20 years, despite all the competition, and remains Netflix’s north star today. We also support artistic freedom to help attract the best creators, and push back on government and other censorship request,” Sarandos explained. He added that “we’ll always have titles some members and employees dislike or believe are harmful.”

Sarandos’s defense of artistic freedom enraged the cancel culture bullies even more. Some employees have threatened to stage a walkout.

Reed Hastings, Netflix’s other co-chief executive, tried to engage in a dialogue with some upset company employees over the company’s internal message board. One employee asked rhetorically whether Netflix was “making the wrong historical choice around hate speech.” Hastings responded that he believed Netflix was making “the right long term choice” through its commitment to “artistic expression and pleasing our members.”

Hastings also wrote this in response to another employee’s claim that Chappelle’s words were harmful: “In stand-up comedy, comedians say lots of outrageous things for effect. Some people like the art form, or at least particular comedians, and others do not.”

When an employee accused Chappelle of displaying a history of homophobia and bigotry, Hastings replied: “We disagree with your characterization and we’ll continue to work with Dave Chappelle in the future. We see him as a unique voice, but can understand if you or others never want to watch his show.”

Netflix’s senior management refused to apologize to the woke crowd for its programming selections, while recognizing that they cannot please all the people all the time. The good thing about a free society is that people usually get to choose what they want to say and hear.

Those people who think Chappelle’s brand of comedy is offensive or harmful have plenty of other programming on television and online to choose from. Nobody is forcing anybody else to watch Chappelle, subscribe to Netflix, or work at Netflix.

A small number of vociferous people with hurt feelings, objecting on social media to this or that person’s expressions of opinion on controversial subjects, have no right to force the rest of us to submit to their code of politically correct speech.

Banishing Dave Chappelle from Netflix, where many enjoy watching this highly popular comedian perform, is censorship by mob rule.

At least one transgender comedian, Flame Monroe, is defending Chappelle’s Netflix special and understands what is at stake if cancel culture prevails. "As a comedian, I believe that I don't want to be censored," Monroe said on TMZ. "I think that nothing is off-limits.”

“The world has become too censored." Monroe added, "If you are in a room and you are uncomfortable, you are free to leave."

Trans activists and their supporters have cherry-picked certain of Chappelle’s jokes out of context to dramatize their portrayal of him as transphobic. But Chappelle’s humor in The Closer is not aimed at attacking transgender people in general or making fun of the suffering that some of them have endured. “I am not indifferent to the suffering of someone else,” Chappelle said.

Chappelle is mocking the lengths to which trans activists are willing to go in trying to make all of us accede, including in the language we use, to the notion that one’s gender is invariably nothing more than a personal preference.

How absurd extreme trans ideology can be is demonstrated in this “expert” statement submitted to a federal court by a Duke University School of Medicine professor, who has also served as the director of the Duke Center for Child and Adolescent Gender Care:

“It is counter to medical science to use chromosomes, hormones, internal reproductive organs, external genitalia, or secondary sex characteristics to override gender identity for purposes of classifying someone as male or female.”

We might as well edit or throw away all those biology textbooks that have reached a different conclusion, based on real science, for so many years if political correctness wins the day.

Chappelle is pushing back at such nonsense. He uses humor to reject the demand that one’s gender preference must rule in all societal settings, irrespective of the impact on the vast majority of people in terms of such matters as privacy rights and fair competition in sports.

Chappelle is also telling us not to divide ourselves into warring tribes, nor to take ourselves so seriously.

Towards the end of The Closer, Chappelle recounts a heartbreaking story of a trans woman comedian, Daphne Dorman, whom he had met in San Francisco. Chappelle grew to respect Dorman both professionally and as a friend. He used the trans comedian to open some of his own shows. After Dorman tragically committed suicide in 2019, Chappelle set up a trust fund for the trans comedian’s daughter.

Chappelle joked that he hoped to tell the daughter someday that he knew her “father,” who “was a hell of a woman.”

“I don’t know what the trans community did for her,” Chapelle said during the conclusion of The Closer, “but I don’t care because I feel like she wasn’t their tribe. She was mine. She was a comedian in her soul.”

Dorman’s two sisters came to Chappelle’s defense, as Daphne Dorman herself had done. “Daphne was in awe of Dave’s graciousness,” Dorman’s sister Becky wrote in a text to the Daily Beast. “She did not find his jokes rude, crude, off-coloring, off-putting, anything. She thought his jokes were funny. Daphne understood humor and comedy—she was not offended. Why would her family be offended?”

Dorman’s younger sister Brandy wrote in a Facebook post about Chappelle and The Closer that “At this point I feel like he poured his heart out in that special and no one noticed. What he’s saying to the LGBTQ family is, ‘I see you. Do you see me? I’m mourning my friend in the best way I know how. Can you see me? Can you allow me that?’… This was a call to come together, that two oppressed factions of our nation put down their keyboards and make peace. How sad that this message was lost in translation.”

The cancel culture bullies are not listening. They want their pound of flesh. Kudos to Netflix for not giving it to them.


Netflix CEO Now Says He ‘Screwed Up’ Defending Dave Chappelle Calling Out the 2SLGBTQQIA+ Agenda

Caving to the mutiny people have pushed within his own company, Netflix co-CEO Ted Sarandos now claims he “screwed up” when defending comedian Dave Chappelle against the 2SLGBTQQIA+ activists outraged over his explosive stand-up special The Closer.

According to Sarandos, his defense of Chappelle should have “led with more humanity” by acknowledging the “pain and hurt” his employees were feeling due to the company’s decision to host Chappelle’s special.

“I screwed up that internal communication. I did that, and I screwed it up in two ways,” Sarandos told Variety in an interview on Tuesday. “First and foremost, I should have led with a lot more humanity.”

“I had a group of employees who were definitely feeling pain and hurt from a decision we made,” he added. “And I think that needs to be acknowledged up front before you get into the nuts and bolts of anything. I didn’t do that.”

Chappelle’s special, which heavily mocked and called out the 2SLGBTQQIA+ lobby for its censorious assault on free speech.

Watch below: 

Upon the initial backlash over , Ted Sarandos defended the comedian’s right to artistic expressing while dismissing concerns that his words could lead to “real-world harm.”

“We know that a number of you have been left angry, disappointed and hurt by our decision to put Dave Chappelle’s latest special on Netflix,” Sarandos wrote in a company-wide email. “With The Closer, we understand that the concern is not about offensive-to-some content but titles which could increase real-world harm.”

“While some employees disagree, we have a strong belief that content on screen doesn’t directly translate to real-world harm,” he added.

Sarandos now believes that he misspoke and agreed with his critics that “storytelling has real impact in the real world.”

Of course storytelling has real impact in the real world. I reiterate that because it’s why I work here, it’s why we do what we do. That impact can be hugely positive, and it can be quite negative. So, I would have been better in that communication. They were joining a conversation already in progress, but out of context. But that happens, internal emails go out. In all my communications I should lean into the humanity up front and not make a blanket statement that could land very differently than it was intended.

What can only be characterized as a splitting of the baby moment, Ted Sarandos then reaffirmed his support for artistic freedom while acknowledging the “pain” of his employees.

We are trying to support creative freedom and artistic expression among the artists that work at Netflix. Sometimes, and we do make sure our employees understand this, because of that — because we’re trying to entertain the world, and the world is made up of folks with a lot of different sensibilities and beliefs and senses of humor and all those things — sometimes, there will be things on Netflix that you dislike.

When asked if The Closer could classify as “hate speech,” Sarandos said that he draws the line “on something that would intentionally call for physically harming other people or even remove protections.” On whether or not Netflix would remove the special, Sarandos said, “I don’t believe there have been many calls to remove it.”

As of this writing, a Change.org petition calling on Netflix to remove the special has over 10,000 signatures.

Going forward, Sarandos pledged that Netflix would “continue to invest enormous amounts of content dollars in LGBTQ+ stories for the world and giving them a global platform.”

Though Sarandos stood by Chappelle, his co-CEO Reed Hastings kept silent about the matter, leading to speculation that a rift had occurred in the company as employees organized a walkout scheduled for Wednesday, October 20.


Horowitz answers the question he poses in one chapter heading – “What Kind of Movement is This?” – with an exposĂ© of BLM’s proud links to cop-killers and domestic terrorists such as Assata Shakur and Susan Rosenberg (who now sits on the board of Thousand Currents, a nonprofit that has funneled millions of dollars into BLM coffers); to black racists and anti-Semites like Al Sharpton and Louis Farrakhan; to a coalition of radical groups like the street thugs of Antifa and the Labor/Community Strategy Center (headed by former Weather Underground terrorist Eric Mann, the ideological mentor of BLM founder Patrisse Cullors); and to major funders like far-left billionaire financier George Soros and the Ford and Kellogg Foundations.


MSNBC’s Reid: Republicans Don’t Believe ‘Non-White Voters Have the Right to Choose the President’

1:27

MSNBC host Joy Reid said Wednesday on her show “The ReidOut” that the Republican Party did not believe that “non-white voters have the right to choose the president of the United States.”

Discussing Rep. Liz Cheney (R-WY) trying to appeal to her Republican colleagues to take the January 6 riot investigation seriously, Reid said, “It’s beyond clear to me she’s arguing to the ether.”

She continued, “We have to stop thinking about this as Republicans being in denial about how bad January 6 was and start thinking of it as them thinking how good it was for them. And that they have divorced themselves from the idea of a multiracial democracy because a multiracial democracy means when people who look like me vote for somebody, that person can be allowed to win. But what they’re saying is no, that person can’t be allowed to win. Only the people that they decide should be allowed to win can. That is the opposite of believing in multiracial democracy. That’s the same problem we had after the Civil War. I feel like we still have it.”

Reid added, “The Republican Party, they don’t believe, they do not believe that non-white voters have the right to choose the president of the United States or any other officers. I don’t see any other way around it.”

 Kamala Harris cackles and squirms about her past attack against Biden

 

By Andrea Widburg

One of the most striking things about the now-joint candidacy of Joe Biden and Kamala Harris is the way they’re being shielded from the press. We’ve long known that Biden, who is suffering a severe cognitive decline, can’t be allowed to roam free. However, most people assumed that Kamala would become his mouthpiece to the media. That assumption, so far, has been wrong, and Kamala’s dismal performance when faced with a single tough question from an obsequious Stephen Colbert probably explains why.

To set the stage for Kamala’s embarrassing Colbert moment, you have to remember how brutally she attacked Joe Biden back in June 2019. Without using the word “racist,” she nevertheless made it clear to everyone watching that Biden, because he opposed busing and palled around with segregationists, was, in fact, a racist who virtually destroyed the little girl that was Kamala:

The media adored Kamala’s attack (which she’d obviously prepared well in advance) and wasn’t bothered that her shtick about “that little girl was me” was inaccurate, if not downright dishonest.

Kamala was right, of course, that Biden is racist. From the start -- and this is something he has in common with all Democrats – he’s been obsessed with race. From his first day in the Senate, Biden hung out with racists, and his anecdotes show he remembers that time fondly. Biden can’t stop talking about Indian accents; he called integrated schools jungles; he said it was a “storybook” that Obama was clean and articulate; he thinks all blacks think alike, and he insisted that people are black only if they vote for him.

Nevertheless, the nakedly-ambitious Kamala readily agreed when Biden (whom she also said probably digitally raped a Senate employee in the 1990s) asked her to join him on the presidential ticket. This is a problem for Democrats, who have to address this inconsistency because her “I was that little girl” speech was her breakout moment in the primaries.

It fell to Stephen Colbert, as part of a fawning interview with Kamala, to ask her the question:

Because in those debates, you landed haymakers on Joe Biden. I mean, his teeth were like Chiclets all over the stage. And now, I believe you that you’re fully supportive of him. How does that transition happen? How do you go from being such a passionate opponent, on such bedrock principles for you, and now you guys seem to be pals?

Colbert framed the question to elicit a substantive answer. He assumed that Kamala, as well as the whole Democrat team running Biden’s campaign, knew the question was coming and had prepared a good response. For example, Kamala might have said that, during her meetings with Biden, she’s learned how he’s grown over the decades. He can sometimes say awkward, or even hurtful things, but his record shows that he’s an ally, and yadda, yadda, yadda.

That’s what Kamala could have done. But that’s not what Kamala did. Instead, in between manic cackles (clearly stolen from Hillary), Kamala just repeated over and over, “It was a debate. It was a debate.”

Kamala Harris basically accused Joe Biden of being a racist during the debates and her only defense is “it was a debate”.

So did you never think he was racist and knowingly falsely accused him of being one or are you now just ok with being on a ticket with a racist? pic.twitter.com/0axLvxtf9Z

— Benny (@bennyjohnson) August 15, 2020

That’s not even a good non-answer. It’s a mindless and moronic mental reflex. It’s like a dead frog’s leg kicking if an electric charge runs through its body.

Kamala also gave the game away about the Democrat primary debates. These were not real battles so that the voters could get the true measure of the candidates. Instead, they were staged spectacles, closer to the WWE than to an actual airing of political differences and mental acumen. The goal, always, was to get voters to choose the hardest left candidate who did not actually look hard left, and who stood a chance of winning (so, not Amy Klobuchar).

It continues to be shocking that Biden and Harris are the best that the Democrats can offer America. Neither can function without a handler at his or her side. Biden, never bright, is now getting senile, and Harris, equally never bright, is the person that we all know (nudge, nudge, wink, wink) is the actual presidential candidate.

Paris Dennard: All Joe Biden Has Done for Blacks Is ‘Lock Us Up’

Former Vice President Joe Biden has done nothing as a politician to help the black community, said Paris Dennard, senior communications advisor for black media affairs with the Republican Party, offering his remarks on Tuesday’s edition of SiriusXM’s Breitbart News Daily with host Alex Marlow.

Biden’s declared on Friday that if a black American is unsure of supporting him over President Donald Trump in the 2020 election “then you ain’t black.”

Dennard warned against characterizing Biden’s statement as a “gaffe.” Biden’s comment, he maintained, reflected the politician’s condescension towards blacks. “It’s paternalistic, and it’s bigoted,” he said.

“We’ve got to stop calling these gaffes,” urged Dennard. “We need to stop calling these ‘insensitive statements.’ No, They’re bigoted. They’re racist, and it’s exposing Joe Biden’s long history. Stop giving him cover for being a bigot.

Dennard noted the refusal of numerous Democrats to condemn Biden’s framing of black identity as contingent on partisan political support for the Democrat Party.

“I have been waiting to hear Amb. Susan Rice, Sen. Kamala Harris, Speaker Nancy Pelosi, [and] Stacey Abrams stand up and say something about this, but they’re not because it’s not about the people [or] the black community,” Dennard stated. “It’s about the black vote. That’s all they’re concerned about. It’s all politics.”

LISTEN:

“The RNC and the Trump campaign are going to be very aggressively going after Joe Biden. The impact of his statement not only was offensive to black Republicans or conservatives — or just free-thinking black Americans like myself who are supporting President Trump — but it’s also offensive to any black person who decides to just be a free thinker. … He’s essentially saying, ‘If you are not on my team — Joe Biden’s team — you’re not black,'” said Dennard.

“You have Joe Biden trying to put people in a box and think, ‘You’ve got to think the way I want you to think. If you don’t think that way. I’m going to pull away your identity. I’m going to pull away your cultural connection. I’m going to say that you are not a part of the community.’ That is an offensive thing to say, because this is exactly what they did during slavery, they wanted slaves to not be able to read and to write and to remain dumb and illiterate so that we wouldn’t be able to be educated and learned and advance and grow and prosper,” Dennard added.

“It is a way to suppress the vote,” Dennard stated. “It is a way to discourage people from daring to be able to do like Kanye West did and do like Vernon Jones did down in Georgia. … When you talk about voter suppression, this is a tactic from the left that we’re seeing play out by their nominee.”

Dennard assessed Biden’s political record.

“Let’s start with the Clinton crime bill, which [Joe Biden] wrote,” Dennard recalled. “You want to have a conversation about anybody’s statements to or for the black community? Let’s talk about how he talked about Barack Obama. Let’s talk about how he talked about Indian-Americans. Let’s talk about how he talked about black kids rubbing their their hands on [his] leg because they had never seen curly hair, and ‘Corn Pop,’ and little roaches, and people getting locked up for crossing the street.”

“You’ve been a vice president, but you haven’t done anything to directly impact the black community in a positive way besides lock us up,” concluded Dennard.

Joe Biden questions my blackness one moment, defends racist 1994 crime bill the next

Much attention has been rightfully devoted to bigoted comments former Vice President Joe Biden made during his Friday interview with “The Breakfast Club” when he had the audacity to say "Well I tell you what, If you have a problem figuring out whether you're for me or Trump, then you ain't black."

As a black man who voted for Donald J. Trump for president in 2016, and plans to do so in 2020, no 77-year-old white man from Delaware has the right, authority or rationale to question my blackness or the blackness of millions of Americans exercising our God-given right to be free and exercise our constitutionally granted power to vote for whomever we want, even if they are Republican. 

If you only watch the sound bites of the interview, you miss his full-throated support and defense of the 1994 crime bill. Biden literally tried to convince black America that our communities weren't destroyed, black families weren't ripped apart, and black wealth was not stifled for generations because of a bill he designed.

So this happened... “If you got a problem figuring out whether you’re for me or for Trump then you ain’t Black.”

Even the host from “The Breakfast Club” agrees. After the interview, host Charlamagne tha God said, “He really was one of the people on the front lines when it came to the war on drugs, and mass incarceration. If he wants to be president, he needs to fix that."

Joe Biden's record is a shame

The black community is well aware of the real impact of his signature legislation. The Center for American Progress sums it up: “The crime bill also expanded the school-to-prison pipeline and increased racial disparities in juvenile justice involvement by creating draconian penalties for so-called super predators — low-income children of color, especially black children, who are convicted of multiple crimes.” 

Thanks to President Trump’s courageous leadership pushing for historic criminal justice reform and signing the First Step Act into law, he helped reverse the pain and suffering many black men and women experienced because of Biden’s bill.

He put the vulnerable at risk: Why oh why is NY Governor Andrew Cuomo being praised for his coronavirus response?

If Biden felt any remorse over what he helped do to the black community, he could have spent his next decades of service to Delaware to undo the damage, but he didn’t. If Biden was so connected, concerned, and passionate about helping and uplifting the black community he would have publicly pushed President Barack Obama to get criminal justice reform over the finish line, but he was silent. 

Biden and the Democratic National Committee seem to look at black Americans just as votes and not as actual people, with brains, feelings and families. Liberal policies have not made it easier for black business owners to navigate fewer regulations, pay less in taxes, and be lifted out of poverty. Liberal policies were not responsible for historic low black unemployment, and the creation of opportunity zones. But the Trump administration did. So, Biden should not be asking black America to compare his record to that of Trump's.

Democrats try to scare black voters 

What this entire episode shows us is Biden and his team are running scared of the continued black engagement efforts of the Republican National Committee and the Trump campaign’s Black Voices for Trump Coalition, which are doing the work to build the relationships and amplify the record of achievement of this current administration. Biden is threatened. So, his latest voter intimidation tactic is to scare black voters into submission by attempting to take away our cultural identity if we do not vote for him. 

Curiously, we have not heard from former President Obama, or from several of the black women who are rumored to be on Biden’s shortlist for vice president. So far, California Sen. Kamala Harris, Stacey Abrams, Atlanta Mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms, Ohio Rep. Marcia Fudge, Florida Rep. Val Demings, and former Ambassador Susan Rice are keeping mum or giving him a pass. Why let bigoted comments get in the way of their own political interests? 

 

Former Vice President Joe Biden interviewed by radio host Charlamagne tha God in May 2020.

Thankfully, Black Entertainment Television (BET) co-founder Bob Johnson called him out saying in part “This proves unequivocally that the Democratic nominee believes that black people owe him their vote without question; even though we as black people know it is exactly the opposite. He should spend the rest of his campaign apologizing to every black person he meets.” 

Yes, Biden issued an apology, not for being a bigot, or offensive, rude or arrogant, but he only said, “I shouldn’t have been such a wise guy. I shouldn’t have been so cavalier.” A lackluster response to match his lackluster record of fighting for the black community. 

Sen. Rand Paul and Rep. Andy Biggs: Anthony Fauci wants America closed until there's nothing to reopen

Add it to the list of racist things he has said as an elected official, like saying of his political opponents "They're gonna put y'all back in chains;" and talking about Obama as "the first mainstream African American who is articulate and bright and clean and a nice-looking guy;" and "In Delaware, the largest growth of population is Indian Americans, moving from India. You cannot go to a 7-11 or a Dunkin' Donuts unless you have a slight Indian accent. I'm not joking." 

This is Joe Biden. These are not gaffes. His horrible record matches his horrible rhetoric. The contrast between him and President Trump on the issues of jobs, justice, the economy, historically black colleges and universities, and even pandemic management is one that Biden is not prepared to have, especially as he insults black Americans in the process.

Biden And Blacks: No Gaffe Can Threaten This Venal Relationship

James Kirkpatrick

Joe Biden’s recent gaffe about blacks isn’t going to cost him black support. It may even strengthen him because, far from being offended, black political consultants, activists, and journalists just see more dollar signs. Whereas First Son-in-Law Jared Kushner reportedly wants to cut out the word "freedom" out of the GOP platform because “polling showed it doesn't appeal to African Americans” [Scoop: Inside the secret talks to overhaul the GOP platform, by Jonathan Swan, Axios, May 24, 2020], the Biden-black relationship is solidly based not on illusory symbols but on venal material interests. The GOP can’t compete, nor should it.

Biden won the Democrat Presidential nomination because he was endorsed by South Carolina’s Jim Clyburn and bought off black politicos like Symone Sanders, right,  the former Bernie Sanders supporter. Black Democrats support Biden because they knew he would provide specific benefits for their “community,” in contrast to the more class-based, universal policies offered by Leftists such as Bernie Sanders or Andrew Yang. Like Virginia Governor Ralph Northam, Biden’s silly persona lets him be the hapless white frontman for racial socialist redistribution programs. And now, like Northam after the blackface brouhaha, Biden will have to offer blacks even more concrete benefits to ensure their turnout.

The celebrated gaffe: In an interview with radio host Lenard McKelvey, aka “Charlamagne tha God,” Biden said if blacks have a problem figuring out whether to support him or President Trump, “you ain’t black” [Joe Biden: ‘You Ain’t Black’ If You Don’t Back Me Over Trumpby Joshua Caplan, Breitbart, May 22, 2020]. Adding to the fun: Biden’s bizarre comment that “everyone in jail… can’t read,” amusing since the “tha God” spent time in jail after various crimes when he was a teenager [Five Things You Didn’t Know About Charlamagne tha Godby Aiden Mason, TVOM, 2018].

The Kushner campaign has pounced on Biden with the usual DR3 (Dems R the Real Racists) tactic, and is now selling extremely cringe T-shirts, below.

Official Trump Campaign T-Shirt

But of course this overlooks the fact that McKelvey wasn’t offended on behalf of black Republicans. “It don’t have nothing to do with Trump, it has to do with the fact—I want something for my community,” he responded to Biden.

In other words, there’s no chance most blacks will consider voting for Trump. But they do want more handouts for their group.

McKelvey, excuse me, “tha God,” pressed Biden on “what have you done for me [blacks] lately” and condemned him for the 1994 crime bill [Charlamagne tha God slams Joe Biden’s record with African Americans after the Democrat’s ‘ain’t black’ gaffe and says his 1994 crime bill was a ‘very intricate’ part of ‘systemic racism,’ by Matthew Wright and Nikki Schwab, Daily Mail, May 23, 2020]. Joe Biden has promptly groveled, vowing that “I’ve never, ever taken the African American community for granted” [Joe Biden Regrets ‘You Ain’t Black Comment: ‘I Shouldn’t Have Been Such A Wise Guyby Joshua Caplan, Breitbart, May 22, 2020].

But he has and he can. Thus Symone Sanders, running interference for the former VP, tweeted that his comments were “in jest” and that he could put “his record with the African American community up against Trump’s any day,” steamrolled Chuck Todd’s attempt to question her about it on Meet The Press  [Symone Sanders vs. Chuck Todd on Biden’s “You Ain’t Black” Comment; “I’m Not Going To Do Thisby Ian Schwartz, RealClearPolitics, May 23, 2020].

Former president Barack Obama is preparing to campaign for Biden to drive up black turnout [Barack Obama poised to add his star appeal to Joe Biden campaignby Daniel Strauss, The Guardian, May 23, 2020]. And fears that blacks might stay home if they feel Biden hasn’t done enough for them lately can be countered if necessary by choosing a black woman female VP candidate, like Florida Congresswoman Val Demings [Val Demings rips Trump for having the "gall" to use Biden remarks in campaign, Axios, May 24, 2020] or Georgia’s Stacey Abrams.

Biden’s weakness is his strength. Like Virginia’s Northam, he can’t rule his party without monolithic black support [Joe Biden, the National Northamby Gregory Hood, American Renaissance, March 6, 2020]. But that means black Democrats like Clyburn will support him because Biden must deliver. Blacks vote as a bloc and win concessions as a bloc.

Consider what Biden has already done before this. He began his campaign running on the Charlottesville hoax that alleges far-right protesters attacked the city and President Trump praised them. Biden has said abandoning Anglo-American legal culture and its presumption of innocence has “got to go” because it’s a “white man’s culture.” He’s more recently said Ahmaud Arbery was “killed in cold blood.”

Biden is going to give blacks everything he thinks they want as long as he gets to be president. President Trump was absolutely right when he defined Biden as an empty shell, a “non-factor,” and said that his real opponent was the radical Left and its Main Stream Media allies [Trump dismisses Biden: ‘Not even a factor,’ by Tal Axelrod, The Hill, May 16, 2020].

Still, why don’t the Democrats have a black person at the top of the Democratic ticket? Because Joe Biden provides a way to soothe the moral panic that older liberal whites are undergoing. It’s not surprising he leads in critical suburban communities [Where Biden, Trump stand in key swing statesby Jonathan Easley, The Hill, May 23, 2020]. Biden’s own personal failings, including plagiarism, allegations of corruption, and, most recently, sexual assault, don’t matter without the MSM covering them aggressively. Thus The Nation’s Katha Pollitt openly states she’d vote for Biden even if “he boiled babies and ate them” or if Tara Reade’s account of sexual harassment was true [We Should Take Women’s Accusations Seriously. But Tara Reade’s Fall ShortMay 20, 2020]. Feminists had no problem voting for Bill Clinton or his enabler Hillary; why would they object to Biden?

If anything, Biden’s creeping senility, bumbling, and overall buffoonery are endearing to white liberal voters who want to go back to the “normality” of the Obama years when the president was just another celebrity. I suspect Biden was picked by Obama because he’s an oaf, the dumb white sitcom dad we’ve seen on television a million times. He’s got a certain charm, but no one respects or fears him.

There is no white “community” in American politics conscious of itself as a group possessing collective interests and identity. The pollster Zach Goldberg has found that white liberals actually possess an “out-group bias”—meaning that they dislike their own ethnic group more than any other. In academia, journalism and increasingly, “white” is an all-purpose insult. The only qualification: many of these white liberals don’t identify with whites anyway, either because they are part of an ethnic group that considers itself distinct from whites (like many Jews); an oppressed group (like some sexual minorities); or are genuinely post-national (and think they’re citizens/consumers of the world).

Notwithstanding the constant denunciations of President Trump as a white nationalist, the fact is he never speaks explicitly in defense of his white supporters. He’ll occasionally send out what appears to be a dog whistle, as when he cryptically referenced the savage beating of a helpless elderly white man by a younger black man in a nursing home in Michigan. But his supporters are learning that there will be no political consequences from this dog whistle. There’s no push to eliminate Affirmative Action or establish Official English. Even Trump’s recent boast that he was going to remedy the “illegal” bias and deplatforming of patriots on social media is apparently just means a “commission”—which is still being “considered” [Trump Considers Forming Panel to Review Complaints of Online Biasby John McKinnon and Alex Leary, The Wall Street Journal, May 23, 2020].

Arguably, the GOP could move to the left and propose a civic nationalist program that might well win a few more black votes than the GOP is getting now: a universal basic income, an immigration moratorium, Official English and replacing Affirmative Action with a system that gives advantages to those from a lower economic class

In other words, challenge the Democrats for black voters by offering them something real.

But we know the GOP won’t do that—not least because Conservatism Inc. ideologues would fight it every step of the way. Better to lose and have some other black conservative we’ve never heard of lecture us on “Republican outreach” again next CPAC.

In contrast, Democrats provide blacks with concrete advantages like set-asides, special programs, ethnic narcissism, and cultural victories. Why would blacks give that up? Once in a while, they might throw a minor tantrum to win more subsidies, but it’s not like a party that wants “limited government” can offer anything to people that rely on government being big.

Let the Kushner campaign sell its shirt. It won’t make a difference. Blacks will vote for Biden this fall by the usual margins, if not greater ones than last time.

Joe Biden has already shown he’s willing to degrade himself as much as he has to in order to be president. Kissing up to “Charlamagne da God” is just business as usual.

THE GLOBALIST DEMOCRAT PARTY IS FOR BILLIONAIRES, BANKSTERS, BAILOUTS AND OPEN BORDERS TO KEEP WAGES DEPRESSED

 

 

On the topic of immigration, she added, “During her lifetime, my aunt Coretta Scott King spoke about immigration coming in, and it would displace ‘negroes,’ or blacks, as we were called back then. And she even wrote about that. My uncle, Martin Luther King, Jr., spoke about immigration as well.




Who ‘Ain’t Black’?


THIS IS FOR REAL!

 

Biden reminds African-Americans where they stand in the Democratic Party.

May 25, 2020 

Lloyd Billingsley

 

“I tell you, if you have a problem figuring out whether you’re for me or Trump, then you ain’t black.”

Thus spake Democrat presidential candidate Joe Biden last Friday in an interview with host Charlamagne tha God. Accomplished black people were surprised to hear they were not black.

“I thought to myself, I have been black for 54 years,” said Sen. Tim Scott, South Carolina Republican. “1.3 million black Americans already voted for Trump in 2016,” and “this morning, Joe Biden told every single one of us we ‘ain’t black.’”  For Scott it was “sadly par for the course for Democrats to take the black community for granted and brow beat those that don’t agree.” Black Entertainment Television (BET) co-founder Robert Johnson expressed similar sentiments.

“Vice President Biden’s statement today represents the arrogant and out-of-touch attitude of a paternalistic white candidate who has the audacity to tell black people, the descendants of slaves, that they are not black unless they vote for him,” Johnson told Fox News. “This proves unequivocally that the Democratic nominee believes that black people owe him their vote without question, even though we as black people know it is exactly the opposite.”

For former NFL player Jack Brewer, “the mask is off” and “America can see the real Joe Biden, hopefully all of my African-American brothers and sisters.” As Brewer told Fox News on Sunday, “He was the VP of Barack Obama so he hides in the closet at lot,” covering up “oppressive policies that he’s pushed since he’s been in the Senate,” the 1994 crime bill among them.

What Biden had revealed, wrote Deroy Murdock of National Review, was the view, “widely popular among Democrats,” that black Americans who fail to support the Democrat agenda are not just wrong but, much worse, “they’re not even black.” Murdoch found this “insulting, degrading and dehumanizing,” and there was more to it.

“Note Biden’s pandering use of ‘ain’t’ and ‘y’all’ when addressing blacks, including a southern accent in the latter instance.” In similar style, Hillary Clinton “exhibits the same annoying, patronizing behavior.” Larry Elder tweeted a cartoon of Hillary Clinton in blackface saying “I ain’t no ways tired of pandering to African Americans.” This was allegedly racist, but Joe Biden telling blacks that GOP is ‘going to put y’all back in chains’ – not a problem.” On the other hand, some blacks had no problem with the Biden statement.

“The issue wasn’t what Joe Biden said, because it was accurate,” tweeted Jamele Hill of The Atlantic, formerly of ESPN.  It was “clearly a joke that didn’t land,” but if you support what Hill calls anti-black policies, “you’re still technically black but you ain’t with us.” Others were eager to clarify.

“There is a difference between being politically black and being racially black,” wrote New York Times correspondent Nikole Hannah-Jones, a Pulitzer Prize winner for her contribution to the 1619 Project. “Being born black does not necessitate being politically black,” wrote Hannah-Jones in a tweet she has since deleted.

Biden said he “shouldn’t have been so cavalier” and “no one should have to vote for any party, based on their race or religion or background,” but that failed to land with Kanye West, also a supporter of President Trump. “I will not be told who I’m gonna vote on because of my color,” West proclaimed.

Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas made a comment by way of the new documentary  Created Equal: Clarence Thomas in His Own Words. “One of the things you do in hearings is you have to sit there and look attentively at people you know have no idea what they are talking about,” Thomas said. In his 1991 confirmation hearing, one of them was Senate Judiciary Committee chairman Joe Biden, and as Thomas recalled, “We know exactly what’s going on here. This is the wrong black guy. He has to be destroyed.”

For someone often unsure of his location, the day of the week, and what office he is seeking, Joe Biden does not hesitate to tell others what he thinks they are, with absolute certainty. For example, according to the former vice president, the millions of people illegally present in the United States are “already American citizens.” That would surprise countless legal immigrants and legitimate citizens of all skin shades.

Last year, Biden could have told Democrat rival Elizabeth Warren “you ain’t no Cherokee,” which would have been true. Instead, the serial plagiarist tells African Americans they “ain’t black,” which is not an original racist smear. 

Back in the 1990s, Clinton assistant attorney general nominee Lani Guinier questioned the blackness of Thomas Sowell, the great scholar, economist and author of books such as Intellectuals and Race. Nikole Hannah-Jones and Jamele Hill might check out Sowell’s response to Lani Guinier:  “I don’t need some half-white woman from Martha’s Vineyard telling me about being black.” By their own admission, African Americans don’t need an addled white Democrat telling them “you ain’t black,” if they fail to support him.

“Wow,” tweeted former NFL great Herschel Walker. “Does he not understand that black and brown skinned people can think for themselves? You don’t determine who we vote for.”

“Thank you Herschel!” tweeted President Trump, who has established www.youaintblack.com with the logo “Black Voices for Trump 2020.” As the president says, we’ll see what happens.

 

'We've got to strengthen our own borders': MLK niece supports Trump's temporary immigration ban

by Emma Colton

 | April 22, 2020 10:34 AM

Martin Luther King Jr.’s niece said she supports President Trump’s forthcoming temporary suspension of immigration to the United States.

Trump announced he would be signing an executive order this week that is expected to put a 60-day ban on immigrants seeking permanent status in the U.S. Alveda King, the director of Civil Rights for the Unborn at Priests for Life, said she agrees with the order, arguing that it will help the U.S. become healthier and stronger amid the coronavirus.

“I agree with President Trump,” King told Just the News on Tuesday. “Now, this is a temporary measure. This is not a forever measure."

"So, the president, when he says 'America first' — he never says 'America only,' just 'America first,'" she said. "Immigration slows for a time. Then we become healthier. Then we can reach out to others. That is the strategy. So, people need to understand that. We've got to strengthen our own borders, our own lives, our own families, our own communities. Once we do that, then we can help others."

Just the News reported that the U.S. Civil Rights Commission under the Obama administration showed illegal immigration negatively affects blacks and asked King if the U.S. should consider immigration control a civil right.

“Civil rights, I would not say — I think more it helps human rights. It helps Americans to get better," King said. "Civil rights, of course, come after human rights, and human rights are endowed by our creator. So, there are some rights, human rights, that we all have. And I believe we all have rights all over the planet to safety, security, provision, and all of that. When that is missing, it is wise for leaders of any nation to stop, take toll, repent, pray, return to God, and get things straightened out."

On the topic of immigration, she added, “During her lifetime, my aunt Coretta Scott King spoke about immigration coming in, and it would displace ‘negroes,’ or blacks, as we were called back then. And she even wrote about that. My uncle, Martin Luther King, Jr., spoke about immigration as well.

"My father, the Rev. A.D. King, with all of us having the understanding this nation was founded by immigrants, as it is today," she continued. "We had the Native Americans here before we were here, of course. So, we are all immigrants. ... Martin Luther King Jr. said, ‘Well, we may have come out on different boats, but we are all in the same boat now.'"

10 Examples of Joe Biden’s History of Racially Charged Conduct and Comments

Democratic nominee Joe Biden took great pains during his debate with President Donald Trump to paint his Republican opponent as racially insensitive and politically divisive.

The former vice president argued that the recent wave of protests and riots roiling America’s cities since the death of George Floyd in police custody has exposed Trump’s weakness as a leader. Biden, in particular, claimed that the president has done nothing in the last four years to address racial injustice or heal political divides.

“This is a president who uses everything as a dog whistle to try to generate racist hatred, racist division,” Biden said, adding that “this man has done virtually nothing for black Americans.”

Biden’s critiques struck some as odd given the former vice president’s long tenure in public office and his own problematic record on racial issues and his past racially insensitive comments. The following is an extensive, but not exhaustive, look into the Democratic nominee’s past stances and comments.

1. As recently as June of 2019, Biden praised the “civility” of the segregationist senators he worked with in Congress to pass anti-busing legislation.

In June of 2019, the former vice president engendered criticism after seeming to praise the “civility” of two arch segregationists during a high-dollar fundraiser at the Carlyle Hotel in New York City. During the event, Biden told the audience assembled it was vital the next president “be able to reach consensus under our system.” To explain why he was the best candidate in that regard, the former vice president fondly cited his history of working with two of the Senate’s arch segregationists, the late-Sens. James Eastland (D-MS) and Herman Talmadge (D-GA).

“I was in a caucus with James O. Eastland,” Biden said with an attempted Southern drawl. “He never called me boy, he always called me son.”

“Well guess what?” the former vice president continued. “At least there was some civility. We got things done. We didn’t agree on much of anything. We got things done. We got it finished. But today you look at the other side and you’re the enemy. Not the opposition, the enemy. We don’t talk to each other anymore.”

The comments provoked outrage because of the reputations that Eastland and Talmadge forged during their decades in public office.

Eastland, in particular, was known as the “voice of the white South” for his stringent opposition to civil rights and integration. The New York Times wrote in Eastland’s obituary that “he often appeared in Mississippi courthouse squares, promising the crowds that if elected he would stop blacks and whites from eating together in Washington. He often spoke of blacks as ‘an inferior race.’”

Talmadge was also a fierce opponent of integration. Before being elected to the Senate in 1957, he served as the governor of Georgia, where his tenure overlapped with the Supreme Court’s decision to strike down segregation in public schools in Brown v. Board of Education. At the time of the ruling, Talmadge promised to do everything in his power to protect the “separation of the races.”

At his NYC fundraiser tonight, Joe Biden said that Georgia Sen. Herman Talmadge was "one of the meanest guys I ever knew." But, he added, "At least there was some civility. We got things done."

Biden, who joined the Senate in 1972, missed most of the early battles on school integration. He did, however, arrive just as busing to achieve school desegregation was coming to the forefront. Despite opposition from more liberal elements in the Democratic Party, especially the late-Sen. Ted Kennedy (D-MA), Biden ended up leading the charge on the issue. Eastland, as chair of the Senate Judiciary Committee, was a prominent ally in the fight against busing, according to the Delaware News Journal.

Letters exchanged between Biden and Eastland during those early years indicate the former vice president courted the pro-segregationist judiciary chairman to help pass his anti-busing measures.

“I want you to know that I very much appreciate your help during this week’s Committee meeting in attempting to bring my antibusing legislation to a vote,” Biden wrote in one letter dated from June 1977.

 

The former vice president’s praise last year of his two late segregationist Senate colleagues proved controversial, even among Democrats, with Rep. Bobby Rush (D-IL) claiming that the former vice president had proved himself “woefully ignorant” of the “black American experience.”

Although such criticism forced Biden to apologize for giving the “impression” of praising segregationists, the former vice president has continued invoking senatorial colleagues who opposed civil rights. In February of this year, during the tenth Democratic presidential primary debate in South Carolina, Biden fondly recalled his friendship with the late Sen. Fritz Hollings (D-SC).

“Look, a guy who was a friend of mine down here, Fritz Hollings, used to say, ‘Don’t listen to what a man or woman say they’ll do, look at what they’ve done,’” the former vice president said, while criticizing his primary rivals.

As Breitbart News has previously reported, Hollings, who passed away last year, was a longtime fixture in South Carolina politics, serving first as the state’s governor and later as a United States senator. For much of his early career, Hollings was an opponent of integration, even running for the governorship on a platform of opposing school desegregation in 1959. Hollings kept that stance for the early portion of his term, but eventually changed course and supported integration.

In the Senate, Hollings cut a moderate-to-liberal profile by championing a national hunger policy and working to rein in the deficit. During his congressional tenure, Hollings’ views on race evolved, as exhibited by his endorsement of Jesse Jackson in the 1988 presidential race. The topic, however, continued to haunt the reformer segregationist as was evidenced in 1993 when Hollings stirred controversy by claiming that African diplomats only attended international conferences so they could get a “good square meal” rather than “eating each other.”

2. Biden praised the notorious segregationist politician George Wallace, boasted about how Wallace once honored him with an award in 1973, and told a Southern audience in 1987 that “we [Delawareans] were on the South’s side in the Civil War.”

Senatorial colleagues were not the only segregationists that Biden has praised throughout his years in public office. One individual, in particular, that Biden praised repeatedly throughout his early congressional career was the late Alabama governor George Wallace.

“I think the Democratic Party could stand a liberal George Wallace — someone who’s not afraid to stand up and offend people, someone who wouldn’t pander but would say what the American people know in their gut is right,” Biden told the Philadelphia Inquirer in 1975 when discussing why liberals should not “apologize for locking up criminals.”

At the time, Biden was a young-first term senator from Delaware who was developing a reputation for bucking his party, most notedly on the contentious issue of busing to desegregate public schools. Notwithstanding the antiquated racial attitudes of that time, Biden’s comments about Wallace were viewed as controversial even by the standards of the 1970s.

Wallace, who was governor of Alabama in the mid-1960s and then again throughout most of the 1970s, stood out in the national psyche for his stringent opposition to integration, even going as far to declare “segregation now, segregation tomorrow, segregation forever” in his 1963 inaugural address. The image was reinforced only months later when Wallace faced down federal law enforcement officers at the University of Alabama while attempting to block integration efforts by then-President John F. Kennedy.

By the time Biden invoked him to the Philadelphia Inquirer in 1975, Wallace was trying to rehabilitate his image by making inroads with Alabama’s black community. Even though he succeeded in that effort by some measure, Wallace remained a vehement proponent of states’ rights, especially when it came to busing and crime—two issues that defined Biden’s early political career.

The political and ideological similarities between the two men have even been acknowledged by Biden on occasion.

In 1975, during an interview with National Public Radio about his support for a constitutional amendment to stop busing, Biden suggested liberals only favored the practice because it was opposed by “racists” like Wallace.

“I think that part of the reason why much of this has not developed, much of the change has not developed, is because it has been an issue that has been in the hands of the racist,” Biden told NPR. “We liberals have out-of-hand rejected it because, if George Wallace is for it, it must be bad.”

“And so we haven’t really looked at it,” he continued. “Now there’s a confluence of streams. There is academic ferment against it — not majority, but academic ferment against it. There are young blacks and young white leaders against it.”

 

News clipping from an article titled “Presidential hopeful Biden faces an image problem” in The Philadelphia Inquirer on September 20, 1987, page 79

The former vice president similarly invoked Wallace during a 1981 Senate Judiciary Committee hearing to explain why he and countless others supported tough-on-crime initiatives like the death penalty.

“Sometimes even George Wallace is right about some things,” Biden told the committee before claiming Americans supported the death penalty because the government did “not have the slightest idea how to rehabilitate” criminals.

Such instances in which Biden mentioned Wallace only grew through the 1980s, becoming more commonplace in the lead-up to his first presidential run in 1988. Back then, the South was still nominally Democratic but had voted overwhelmingly for President Ronald Reagan in 1980 and 1984. Biden appeared to believe his youth, moderate record, and stance on busing presented the best opportunity to bring Southern whites back into the Democratic camp.

As he traveled the South in 1986 and 1987 to build support for his first White House bid, Biden not only downplayed his support for civil rights, but also made frequent references to Wallace. In April 1987, Biden even reportedly tried to court an Alabama audience by boasting about how Wallace had honored him with an award.

“Biden talked of his sympathy for the South; bragged of an award he had received from George Wallace in 1973 and said “we [Delawareans] were on the South’s side in the Civil War,” as reported by the Inquirer on September 20, 1987. (Although Delaware was a slave-holding border state during the Civil War, it fought on the Union side.)

Apart from openly touting “his sympathy for the South” and the accolade bestowed by Wallace, Biden also bragged that the Alabama governor heaped praise on his capabilities as a politician.

“Sen. Joseph Biden of Delaware … tells Southerners that the lower half of his state is culturally part of Dixie,” the Detroit Free Press reported in May 1987. “He reminds them that former Alabama Gov. George Wallace praised him as one of the outstanding young politicians of America.”

3. Biden opposed busing in the 1970s and expressed fears that it would lead to a “racial jungle.”

Throughout the 1970s and early 1980s, Biden was seen as one of the Senate’s leading opponents of busing to desegregate public schools. The issue was particularly volatile for his constituents in Delaware, especially in the state’s largest city, Wilmington.

As a first-term senator in 1977, Biden raised concerns during a Senate committee hearing on busing that the practice would lead to a “racial jungle” with tensions pushed to their breaking point. At the time, Biden was facing tough reelection prospects.

“Unless we do something about this, my children are going to grow up in a jungle, the jungle being a racial jungle with tensions having built so high that it is going to explode at some point,” Biden said shortly after making a plea for “orderly integration.”

It is unclear exactly which legislation Biden’s remarks were meant to address, as there were many busing proposals floating around in 1977. Despite the background remaining murky, Biden’s remarks at the hearing are similar to those he expressed during an interview with a local Delaware newspaper in 1975 while discussing the issue of busing.

“The real problem with busing,” Biden told the paper, after lambasting busing as an “asinine concept,” was that “you take people who aren’t racist, people who are good citizens, who believe in equal education and opportunity, and you stunt their children’s intellectual growth by busing them to an inferior school … and you’re going to fill them with hatred.”

“The unsavory part about this is when I come out against busing, as I have all along, I don’t want to be mixed up with a George Wallace,” he added.

4. Biden voted to protect the tax-exempt status of private segregated schools.

After being re-elected to his second term in 1978, Biden voted the following year against revoking a legislative provision that prevented the Internal Revenue Service from rescinding the tax-exempt status of private segregated academies. Such schools were founded in the wake of the Supreme Court’s 1954 Brown v. Board of Education decision to prevent the integration of educational institutions.

At the time, Biden’s vote put him at odds with then-President Jimmy Carter and such vaulted liberal institutions as the American Civil Liberties Union.

5. Biden told black radio host Charlamagne tha God, “If you have a problem figuring out whether you’re for me or Trump, then you ain’t black.”

In May, while appearing on the Breakfast Club, a popular New York City-based radio show, Biden asserted that any voter unsure whether to back him or President Donald Trump this November “ain’t black.”

“If you have a problem figuring out whether you’re for me or Trump, then you ain’t black,” the former vice president told one of the show’s black hosts, Charlamagne tha God.

The comments elicited immediate rebuke, including from Charlamagne. In response, Biden’s campaign attempted to playoff the awkward moment, with the vice president, himself, claiming he was being a “wise guy.”

6. Biden told the Asian and Latino Coalition of Des Moines that “poor kids are just as bright and just as talented as white kids.”

During a town hall in August 2019 with the Asian and Latino Coalition of Des Moines, Iowa, Biden elicited controversy by claiming that “poor kids are just as bright and … talented as white kids.” The former vice president, in particular, made the comments while discussing his support for expanding educational opportunities and school funding.

“We should challenge students [with] advanced placement programs in these schools,” Biden said at the time. “We have this notion that somehow if you’re poor you cannot do it, poor kids are just as bright and just as talented as white kids.”

The former vice president quickly attempted to clarify his remarks by adding “wealthy kids, black kids, Asian kids” to the end of his previous sentence.

The comments raised eyebrows forcing Biden’s campaign to issue a statement saying that the former vice president “misspoke.”

7. While delivering remarks before a black audience in Delaware, Biden launched into a meandering story about a gang leader named Corn Pop and claimed that he “learned about roaches” while working at a community pool in a black neighborhood.  

In 2017, shortly after leaving the White House Biden delivered a bizarre speech before an audience in Wilmington, Delaware, at the renaming of a community pool in his honor. The event, though, quickly took a strange turn when Biden, flanked by black children from the local community, decided to recount a nearly violent altercation he had with a local gang leader named Corn Pop while working as the only white lifeguard at this pool during his teenage years.

“Corn Pop was a bad dude, and he ran a bunch of bad boys. Back in those days, to show how things have changed … if you used pomade in your hair, you had to wear a bathing cap,” Biden said. “He was up on the board and wouldn’t listen to me, so I said, ‘Hey, Esther, you, off the board or I’ll come up and drag you off.’”

Corn Pop, according to the former vice president, did not take kindly to being called “Esther” — an “emasculating” reference to the 1950s swimmer Esther Williams, as the Washington Post noted — and promised to “meet” him outside. Biden told the audience he realized that he had to take the threat seriously when he purportedly saw the gang leader waiting around for him with three other guys carrying straight razors.

According to the former vice president’s recollection, he walked outside with a “six-foot chain” and threatened to “wrap [the] chain around” Corn Pop’s head, before apologizing.

“I looked at him, but I was smart then,” Biden said, adding that he told Corn Pop, “’First of all, when I tell you to get off the board, you get off the board, and I’ll kick you out again, but I shouldn’t have called you Esther Williams.’ I apologize for that. … I apologize for what I said.”

Biden’s anecdote about Corn Pop was not the only part of the speech that drew attention. In an earlier portion of his remarks, the former vice president raised eyebrows when he described what he learned that summer while working as the only white lifeguard at a community pool in a black neighborhood.

“By the way, you know, I sit on the stand, and it get[s] hot,” Biden said. “I got a lot, I got hairy legs that turn blonde in the sun, and the kids used to come up and reach in the pool and rub my leg down so it was straight and then watch the hair come back up again. They’d look at it.”

“So I learned about roaches, I learned about kids jumping on my lap,” the former vice president added. “And I loved kids jumping on my lap.”

Biden’s inexplicable reference to “roaches,” alongside the broader story about Corn Pop, confounded many. Without proper explanation, more than a few were left to speculate the use of the term was an allusion to the racial and economic makeup of the community frequenting the pool. Some, like the prominent conservative activist and commentator Larry Elder, went further suggesting that Biden was calling the children “jumping on my lap” roaches.

8. In 2008, Biden referred to then presidential candidate Barack Obama as “the first sort of mainstream African-American who is articulate and bright and clean.”

Before Biden was tapped by President Barack Obama for the number two slot on the 2008 Democratic ticket, the two men’s relationship nearly went off the rails over a racial gaffe. In February 2007 as Biden was preparing to launch his own White House bid, the then-senator from Delaware caused a flare-up while discussing his potential rivals for the Democratic nomination. Although, Biden spent a great deal of time evaluating his chances against the likes of then-Sen. Hillary Clinton (D-NY) and ex-Sen. John Edwards (D-NC), his remarks about the freshman senator from Illinois drew the most scrutiny.

“I mean, you’ve got the first sort of mainstream African-American who is articulate and bright and clean and a nice-looking guy. I mean, that’s a story-book, man,” Biden said when discussing Obama.

9. In 2006, Biden told C-SPAN, “You cannot go to a 7-Eleven or a Dunkin’ Donuts unless you have a slight Indian accent.”

In 2006, when first considering a second run for the presidency, Biden appeared on C-SPAN’s “Road to the White House” to discuss his deliberations. Biden told the program that one of his strengths as a candidate would be the broad base of support he’s received from immigrants in his home state of Delaware, especially Indian-Americans.

“I’ve had a great relationship. In Delaware, the largest growth in population is Indian-Americans moving from India. You cannot go to a 7-Eleven or a Dunkin’ Donuts unless you have a slight Indian accent,” Biden said. “I’m not joking.”

At the time, the comments were widely lambasted by members of the Indian-American community. In response, Biden’s then-Senate office tried to explain the gaffe, claiming he was only commenting about how positive it was that Indian-American “middle-class families are moving into Delaware and purchasing family-run small businesses.” That effort, however, was undercut by a subsequent appearance the senator made on CNN in which he defended his comments by suggesting that he would have said the same thing “40-years ago about walking into a delicatessen and saying an ‘Italian accent.'”

10. Biden falsely claimed to have “marched” in the civil rights movement. 

During his run for the 1988 Democratic nomination, Biden inflated his record of activism in the civil rights movement. Biden, in particular, repeatedly claimed to have “marched” in the civil rights movement when presenting himself to audiences as a candidate for generational change.

“When I marched in the civil rights movement, I did not march with a 12-point program,” Biden told a group of supporters in 1987. “I marched with tens of thousands of others to change attitudes, and we changed attitudes.”

In reality, Biden had never marched during the civil rights movement, according to Matt Flegenheimer of the New York Times. 

“More than once, advisers had gently reminded Mr. Biden of the problem with this formulation: He had not actually marched during the civil rights movement,” wrote Flegenheimer. “And more than once, Mr. Biden assured them he understood — and kept telling the story anyway.”

The exaggeration, along with Biden’s propensity for plagiarism, would eventually force him to abandon his 1988 presidential bid before a single vote was cast.

 

I Can't Breathe

David Horowitz delivers a new masterpiece on the racial hoax that is killing America.

 

 28 comments

[Order David Horowitz's new book -- I Can't Breathe: How a Racial Hoax Is Killing AmericaHERE.]

Mark Tapson is the Shillman Fellow on Popular Culture for the David Horowitz Freedom Center.

After a few years of the widespread tearing-down of statues honoring American heroes such as the Great Emancipator Abraham Lincoln, Founding Father George Washington, and anti-slavery giant Frederick Douglass, recently a few new statues went up for a change. Massive golden busts of the late, far-left Congressman John Lewis and Black Lives Matter icons George Floyd and Breonna Taylor were erected in Manhattan's Union Square.

Lewis arguably achieved something in his life – albeit in the service of communism. Floyd and Taylor, however, are being venerated not because of any extraordinary accomplishments, but because their deaths in police-involved incidents were successfully exploited by the Marxist revolutionaries of Black Lives Matter to inflame racial rage and demonize police officers all across the country as genocidal bigots, even though there is zero evidence that racism was a factor in either death. Floyd, now an international symbol of racist police brutality, was an inveterate criminal and drug addict who died of a fentanyl overdose while being restrained by police for resisting arrest. Breonna Taylor died when police who were entering her darkened apartment with a search warrant returned fire after her drug-dealing boyfriend began shooting at them.

This is where America is in 2021: monuments honoring Frederick Douglass, a black man who rose from slavery to become a statesman, orator, writer, and noted abolitionist, are now destroyed by the woke mob, but blacks whose unintended deaths can be weaponized against America are lionized in the public square as martyrs.

Floyd and Taylor are only two of the police victims elevated to household names by the powerful Black Lives Matter (BLM) organization. The self-proclaimed trained Marxists who founded that subversive movement exploited, and continue to exploit, those victims in order to incite a civil war in America by hyping a false narrative of the systematic targeting of blacks by law enforcement. That is the subject of I Can’t Breathe: How a Racial Hoax is Killing America, the newest book by Freedom Center founder, conservative warrior, and bestselling author David Horowitz.

Horowitz’s aim with the book is to puncture BLM’s grotesque narrative, which is supported by the Democrat Party and amplified by its media enablers. He begins the book with a summary of our current racial divide, which was exacerbated by deadly, nationwide BLM rioting – “a summer of insurrections” – in 2020 that constituted “the costliest sustained acts of civil disorder in American history.” The siege of Portland by violent leftist activists, the Democrat movement to defund police departments and the subsequent crime waves that swept the nation, the anti-American messaging, the 2016 massacre of five white cops in Dallas at the hands of a BLM-inspired black extremist – Horowitz weaves all these ugly threads and more to create a dark tapestry of the devastation that Black Lives Matter’s myth-making has wrought:

The casualties of the scorched-earth war unleashed by Black Lives Matter dwarf the total casualties of all the alleged racial injustices the organization has protested. The atrocities instigated and inspired by BLM encompass scores of innocent wounded and dead, both black and white… Surveying these disasters, one could reasonably conclude that, thanks to Black Lives Matter campaigns to abolish police departments, advances in both race relations and protections for urban black communities have been set back fifty years.

Horowitz compiles the names of 26 black victims BLM claims were murdered or maimed by the police since the death of Trayvon Martin in 2012 sparked the launch of the movement. They include the aforementioned Martin, Floyd and Taylor, as well as Eric Garner, Michael Brown, Tamir Race, and Freddie Gray, to name some of the most well-known. Then – in chapters on how the BLM movement began, grew, and went national and then international – Horowitz goes on to dissect all 26 incidents according to the facts, backed up by over 70 pages of endnotes. He demonstrates how BLM has lied about every single one in its quest to aggravate racial tensions and rip America apart at the seams.

His examinations show “that while some of the Black Lives Matter cases reveal tragic errors of judgment, almost all involve resistance by known and armed criminals to warranted arrests. In the vast majority of cases, Horowitz concludes, “the deceased would still be alive if they had simply obeyed police commands, and the Black Lives Matter charges are reckless inventions unsupported by the facts.”

But of course, inconvenient facts and statistics are irrelevant to the racist power-mongers of BLM, “whose motives and goals have nothing to do with black lives mattering,” Horowitz notes. “Black Lives Matter is not a civil rights organization. It is a revolutionary criminal movement whose goals are openly Marxist and communist.” What matters to them, he adds, is not black lives but “the anti-American revolution they are advancing and the fantasy world they think they will achieve by destroying the most equitable, inclusive, tolerant, and free society that has ever existed.”

Horowitz correctly points out that “Never in the history of nations has a previously oppressed minority like black Americans been so integrated into the dominant culture of a nation.” In addition, there is not a single crime statistic to support “the harsh claims of a hunting season on blacks by police.” On the contrary, I Can’t Breathe marshals irrefutable evidence that the truth about crime and race in this country is exactly the opposite of BLM’s “malicious racial fiction.”

Horowitz answers the question he poses in one chapter heading – “What Kind of Movement is This?” – with an exposĂ© of BLM’s proud links to cop-killers and domestic terrorists such as Assata Shakur and Susan Rosenberg (who now sits on the board of Thousand Currents, a nonprofit that has funneled millions of dollars into BLM coffers); to black racists and anti-Semites like Al Sharpton and Louis Farrakhan; to a coalition of radical groups like the street thugs of Antifa and the Labor/Community Strategy Center (headed by former Weather Underground terrorist Eric Mann, the ideological mentor of BLM founder Patrisse Cullors); and to major funders like far-left billionaire financier George Soros and the Ford and Kellogg Foundations.

Horowitz also addresses BLM’s indoctrination of schoolkids, its takeover of the culture, its anti-family agenda (the declaration of which was scrubbed from the organization’s website when it began to attract too much outraged attention), and its perpetuation of destructive, anti-American myths such as “systemic racism.”

In his concluding chapter, “Whose Future?”, Horowitz links the BLM movement’s aims to the broader agenda of the Democrat Party under decrepit puppet President Joe Biden, who himself publicly promotes the shameful lie that blacks in America are oppressed by a “systemic racism” which demonstrably does not exist.

Whose future, indeed? If we are to repel Black Lives Matter’s full-on assault on our values, institutions, and character, it will only be if all American patriots summon the kind of courageous, truth-telling resistance David Horowitz displays in his indispensable book I Can’t Breathe to expose and condemn the corrosive racial hoaxes perpetrated by BLM and the Democrat Party.

The Left Is Locked in A Life-and-Death Struggle With The Family

For Marxists, there is one very special key to everything.

 

 17 comments

In “Godfather I,” Vincent Sollozzo says he’ll offer the Corleone family a deal that’s too good to refuse – one which will guarantee the safety of the Don, who’s lying in a hospital bed severely wounded after two attempts on his life.

But Michael Corleone sees reality with crystal clarity: “I don’t care what Sollozzo says about a deal, he’s gonna kill Pop, that’s it.  That’s the key for him.”

For Marxists, killing the family is the key to everything.  The war on the family isn’t peripheral; it’s central to the revolution.

The National Council on Family Relations, a professional association started in 1938 and consisting of hundreds of marriage and family therapists and researchers, just announced a webinar called, “Toward Dismantling Family Privilege and White Supremacy in Family Science.”

Just as white people are “privileged,” according to CRT, so too is the nuclear family, which supposedly enjoys “unearned benefits in U.S. laws, policies and practices” over “non-traditional configured family systems” – including single-parent families and “committed partners living together and raising children.”

The question which seems almost too-obvious to ask (but which alludes most social scientists) is this: Why is it that intact (two-parent) families consistently outperform others on every measurement – income, independence and children who are healthier, happier and less prone to social pathologies.

Who can fail to see that most problems in the black community are due to the virtual disappearance of two-parent families? Since the 1960s (when the Great Society began its war on the black family in the guise of fighting poverty), the black crime rate, out-of-wedlock birthrate and welfare rate have soared.

Due to the success of Black Lives Matter, everything now is seen through the lens of institutional racism – criminal justice, electoral politics and, of course, the family.  When BLM’s founders described themselves as “trained Marxists,” believe it.

Until negative publicity forced them to take it down, BLM’s website proclaimed: “We disrupt the Western-prescribed nuclear family structure requirement by supporting each other as extended families and ‘villages’ that collectively care for one another….”  Western-prescribed?  Presumably, there are no nuclear families in Africa or Asia.

BLM echoes the screwball theories of Marx and Engels, who insisted there was an ancient, matriarchal communist society which preceded patriarchy and capitalism.  They viewed the “bourgeoise family” as capitalism in miniature, with the father/husband as the owner and his wife and children as the exploited proletariat.  Both will be abolished by the communist state, they predicted.

Writing in the 1920s, Antonio Gramsci, the father of Cultural Marxism, reversed the equation.  Since the family is the chief obstacle to revolution, its destruction must precede the triumph of communism, not follow it.

Gramsci said the family will be overthrown, and society reshaped, through subversion of the culture: “In the new order, Socialism will triumph – via infiltration of schools, universities, churches, and the media by transforming the consciousness of society.”

In 21st century America, the contest is being played out in the educational arena.

For the left, the central purpose of public schools isn’t education but indoctrination.  Public education has failed miserably at the former (as may be seen by plummeting standardized test scores) but succeeded spectacularly at the latter (as may be seen in the leftward drift of the electorate – especially younger voters).

The objective is to take children away from parental values and align them with the worldview of the Democratic Party. The cutting edge is CRT and the sexualization of students, seen most recently in the enthusiastic embrace of transgenderism.

The battle lines are drawn, with the public education establishment (administrators, school committees and teachers’ unions) and Democrat politicians on one side and parents and some conservative politicos on the other.

Parents are outraged by what their children are being taught. Progressive are outraged that families would try to interfere with the intellectual/emotional kidnapping.  For the left, the role of families in education is to pay up and shut up.

Again, the principal purpose of the schools is to get children to reject the parental worldview (the Judeo-Christian ethic, patriotism, individualism and the free market) in favor of Cultural Marxism (neo-paganism, internationalism, determinism and collectivism).

In clear defiance of the dictates of the elite, protesting parents are invading school committee meetings, calling for accountability and demanding change.

At a Fairfax, VA school committee meeting, a mother had the chutzpah to read aloud from a book promoting gay pedophilia found in the school library. In Loudoun Co., VA, a father charged that his daughter was sexually assaulted in the girls’ room by a boy wearing a skirt, a crime the school system tried to cover up to protect its transgender policies.

The Empire is striking back with a vengeance. In Virginia, Democratic gubernatorial candidate, and former Governor Terry McAuliffe lectured the little people, “I don’t think parents should be telling schools what they should teach.” The American Federation of Teachers showed Its appreciation with a $25,000 campaign contribution.

Biden, who’s even more of a tool of the teachers’ mafia, has his Justice Department investigating activist parents as domestic terrorists under the Patriots Act.

Nothing must be allowed to interfere with the pedagogical brainwashing -- the main offensive of the war on the family.

Marxists hate competition. They demand the undivided loyalty of the masses. Thus, destroying the family is an imperative.

In “Godfather III,” an aged, ailing Michael Corleone dramatically announces, “Our true enemy has not yet shown his face.”

Our true enemy has been showing us his face for more than a century. We’ve seen it in planned economies, gulags and the war on parents and children. For the family, it’s the face of death.
