HARRY BELAFONTE SET TO JUDGE NYC STATUES
http://www.catholicleague.org ^ | 09/13/2017 | Bill Donohue

Posted on 09/13/2017 12:40:09 PM PDT by heterosupremacist

New York City’s left-wing mayor, Bill de Blasio, has selected his left-wing friend, Harry Belafonte, to advise him on which New York City monuments are so hateful that they should be removed. The singer is one of 18 persons selected to be on the panel which will render an opinion.

Belafonte knows a thing or two about hatred: He is a supreme hate-monger himself, having spewed his vitriol at America, as well as many prominent Americans, for decades.

Virtually everyone concedes that Osama bin Laden was a genocidal maniac, one responsible for the deaths of legions of his own people, never mind thousands of Americans. But in the eyes of Belafonte, the mass murderer is no different from George W. Bush.(snip)

Actually, Belafonte believes Bush was worse than bin Laden. He called the 43rd president “the greatest tyrant in the world [and] the greatest terrorist in the world.” [“Blacks Repudiate Belafonte,” National Leadership Network of Conservative African Americans, news release, January 13, 2006].

Colin Powell was Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff and Secretary of State, but to Belafonte, the four-star general was nothing more than a house slave. “There’s an old saying in the days of slavery. There are those slaves who lived on the plantation, and there were those slaves who lived in the house.

You got the privilege of living in the house if you served the master. Colin Powell was permitted to come into the house of the master.” [“Harry Belafonte’s Greatest Hits”]

OK—this is easy.

Harry wants every statue in NYC taken down and replaced with:
—Marx (Karl, not Groucho :-) )
—Lenin
—Stalin
—Mao
—Ho Chi Minh
—Che Guevara
—Beria
—Castro (Fidel, not the San Antonio empty suits)
—Trotsky
—Pol Pot
—W.E.B. Dubois (black—double winner!)
—Kim Il Sung
—Angela Davis (another black double winner!)
—Gramsci (don’t know who he is—you need to know)

There goes Columbus.

We Italians on Staten Island are already planning to take it and keep it here.

We’re metrosexual Manhattan faggots. He should think twice before telling us we can’t have it.

Or i’ll be compelled to spray paint prostitute beater on the MLK expressway sign in the BAD neighborhood on staten island.

BAD was a kinder word that the one I had in my head.

Some of the other members:

"The advisory panel will be co-chaired by Ford Foundation President Darren Walker and the city's commissioner of cultural affairs, Tom Finkelpearl.

Besides Belafonte, an entertainer and longtime civil-rights activist, and Arad, whose design for twin memorial pools was chosen out of 5,200 entries in a competition, the commission includes artists, writers and academics in diverse fields.

Jon Meacham, a biographer of Thomas Jefferson and Andrew Jackson, and Mary Schmidt Campbell, the president of Spelman College in Atlanta, also are members."

Hey Harry, how did you make any money at all?

In ‘50s white America, that hateful God-awful society. The only society that paid you any mind or money.

If they can include “artists” and “writers”, are they including scientists and engineers too?

Because I could provide a bit of balance; plus history is an avocation for me anyway.

I’ll bet $ to donuts these fools don’t have even an inkling of who half the statues are for anyway. Betcha.

Perhaps Robert Mugabe for a more contemporary flair.

I guess Obama’s preacher Jeremiah “God Damn America” Wright must have been busy. A self loathing white mayor and a racist black guy who hates whites too. Sweet.......

The friend of Fidel Castro and Hugo Chavez will decide. What more can I say.

Harry kept his Communism low profile and gained respectability in show biz early on in his career.

He was friendly to Martin Luther King and helpful as many Communists were for their own motives (to start revolution).

The Lefties live in a “target rich environment” in our day and age.

Since there are something like 560 recognized indiginous tribes by the BOIA/DOI somewhere in their languages should be a word describing this country youda think? I checked on the major Indian words and nothing there (butterfly on leaf, etc).
