Why else turn Rosa Parks' funeral into a political opportunity instead of a celebration of courage?

Wellstone funeral part II?

You're absolutely right! They (liberals) treated the Wellstone's funeral the same way.

But I do have an issue with liberals trying to canonize her in order to glorify themselves, and legitimize their route to "progress"

In an earlier thread, I called it "Owning Rosa Parks".

The liberals and so-called self annointed Black leaders are the neo-Plantation owners.

The NAACP has received a public relations boon from member Rosa's story, yet ironically had Booker T. Washington's vision of character and racial healing not been successfully attacked by DuBois, by Rosa's time there would have been likely no Jim Crow laws left to fight.





An interesting perspective, too bad that we are not learning from previous mistakes.

This pastor is So intelligent and such a strong leader. Its such a shame that his voice is repressed by the mainstream media. Somebody let me know where I can donate HIM money.

"Jesse Jackson and other liberal black leaders never encourage black Americans to do better. They're motivated by greed for power and money, which can only be fed if blacks stay dependent – i.e., stay Democrats. Why else turn Rosa Parks' funeral into a political opportunity instead of a celebration of courage?"

I totally agree with you. However, none of the "Normal" black leaders will say a thing that puts this type of dependency to rest, once and for all, and truly tell people what kind of propaganda is being shovelled on them(all people). It is all greed, and it is destroying our nation. That kind of thing just falls into the same category as our senators who behave so irresponsibly.

This Reverend Jesse is thoughful, intelligent, and seems to always hit the nail on the head in his writings. The other is a philadering adulterer...

Too bad the latter gets all the press.

Peterson nailed the liberal leftist demoncRAT party, NAACP, members of the congressional black caucus, self-proclaimed leaders of the black community. More power to Peterson.

Thank you for the ping, abigail. I didn't know a lot of that history and found it very interesting.

What is unfortunate is that the author's name is so similar to Jesse Jackson's. I'm not sure what/if that means anything in terms of the media coverage he doesn't get, but I just thought I'd bring it up.

FYI, BOND is a 501 (C) (3) nonprofit organization, has been around for 15 years, and has never accepted a dime from the government. Believe me, your financial help is appreciated!

That is one imbecilic statement.

During the years 1890 to 1920 black communities and business districts were burned down by white mobs from Tulsa to Rosewood. All the hard work in the world is meaningless (as the Jew of Andalusia and Central Europe learned) if you do not have the most basic right of citizenship. The right to the physical protection of the law.

Morally straight and industrious - a teaching that links to a verse in Psalms: "When a man's ways please the Lord, He will make even his enemies dwell in peace with him."
