“(Jefferson) thought little of black people’s potential.”

And again history proved him right.

Never mind that when he quit he endorsed a Democrat anti-Klan candidate for Governor, the KKK stain is unforgivable to historians who ignore historical mores.

Brady would have had to become a goose-stepping National Democratic Socialist Party member like Senator Robert "KKK Kleagle" Byrd, who did his level best throughout his long Senate career to keep the black man enslaved on the Big City Progressive Plantations.

Or perhaps someone like Teddy "My Personal War On Women" Kennedy, who liked sexually abusing, enslaving and killing women.

Jefferson was a product of his era.

Jefferson was a towering figure for the ages--an American equivalent of a Renaissance Man! The efforts to tear down Jefferson, and other genuine American heroes is part of a Leftist war on our cultural heritage.

See Creating Hate In America Today.

Moreover, for anyone to criticize Jefferson on the subject of race--and the article is not entirely accurate on his views, consider the fact that Jefferson did not ask anyone to accept any view, his or any other, uncritically. Rather he called for us to take advantage of having three major races in close proximity, by studying each as an object of Natural History. Isn't that call long overdue? Should anyone be afraid of more knowledge; afraid of better understanding?

Mankind is the only object of great human interest, animate or inanimate, where we do not encourage maximum understanding of the variations. (See Footnote On "Diversity".)

Now, I realize that the author is not attacking Jefferson; rather his detractors, as those of the more immediate subject from Tulsa. But I believe that my point, here, needed to be made. It is important that our counter-attack on the Left be as accurate as possible.
