I wonder the same thing. With all the problems in the black community, why is she trying to dredge up crap from the past instead of looking for ways to solve the problems that exist now and change the future? She sure has turned into a run of the mill race baiter.

Will she be demanding the whites in the audience stand up and apologize for slavery at the end like she did during her episode on Jefferson and Hemings?

OWN, huh?

Maybe twelve people will see it, but it’ll win every award they can throw at it.

No Guilt
No Apologies

An interesting parallel emerges:

The rise of both Obummer and Orca hinged on their magical ability to appeal to the widespread need among whites for highly visible black leaders seeming utterly devoid of anti-white grievances.

Yet beyond some threshold point of success the ability of both to keep the succes$ ball rolling instead depended on openly guilting whites as part of a Grievance Elite.

Remember Oprah’s famous claims of having suffered discrimination at the hands of a Geneva handbag sales girl?

Isn’t it funny, the way that came RIGHT BEFORE her release of, “The Butler”. Amazing, isn’t it..?

Funny how almost exactly THE SAME THING happened to her in Paris before the release of, “Beloved”...?

Sooooo intere$ting.

Let's do a series of movies and TV shows about white people being beat up by black gang bangers. My guess is more than 300 white people have been beaten and KILLED in the last few years by black gangs.

Can we turn that into OUR religion of victimhood?

Hey Oprah - how about grinding the salt of the knockout game into a wound for the next 80 years? In the year 2094 we'll be making movies about white people being beat up by roving black gangs... celebrating 2014... Even if that type of crime stopped existing years before. Would YOU Oprah be charmed?

We 'get' the liberal message ... it's sick. (that said, I'm sorry democrats in the south did horrible things to black people... in today's world Democrats use the same tactics against the Tea Party... and we hear deafening silence from your side...

We can quibble over the numbers bu this did happen. But you know what? Do you know who did it? Organized it? DEMOCRATS and their terrorist arm, the KKK. This horrible incident is yet another example of how the Democrats have always been the Party of Race. Prior to the 1960s, they brutally supressed the black vote and won white votes with white supremacy and terrorizing blacks. Now they have flipped.

I am fine with Oaf-rah doing a miniseries on this. But I am sure she will whitewash the Democrat angle on it.

It seems then, that the question is “who’s lynching who?”

DEMOCRATS and their terrorist arm, the KKK.

Warren G. Harding was the President at the time, hardly a 'Rat. Tulsa's mayor was Republican T. D. Evan. The reality is that a radical Negro leftist, J.B. Stradford encouraged the riot. What the 'Rats and their terrorist soldiers did is well documented and is part of the legacy of the liberals.

But in the case of the Greenwood riots, it was the 1921 version of the knockout game of black on white violence. See my post, #19, in this thread for the truth about the riot...the unvarnished truth brushed aside by Orpha and the state-run, drive-by, lamestream media.

Racists are obsessed with race.

That’s just not true. The disparity is pretty large (about 8,500 whites are killed by blacks each year, compared to around 4,500 blacks killed by whites), but not nearly as large as the disparity you suggest. made up stats like the one you posted just make you look foolish.

Not doubting your round numbers, but do you have a link to those stats.

while white-on-black slayings dropped from 4,745 to 4,380.

The sources are not linked. What are the percentages of Hispanic gang violence on black in those numbers? This is well documented in Los Angeles, Kansas City and Chicago. It is glossed over by many news organizations as white on black crime. Remember the white Hispanic? That is part of the occupation media racial template.

I looked for a source for this factoid which I have seen in various places, and this is what I can find right now without more time to check—

http://dailykenn.blogspot.com/2013/10/more-whites-killed-by-blacks-in-8-years.html

It’s still an amazing figure, and one completely swept under the rug in this so-called “oppression of black men”, when the opposite is the truth.

The rape statistics are even more disparate.

Incorrect. FBI crime stats show that about 50% of ALL crime victims are black, and 91-92% of those, perennially, are murdered by black attackers, usually YBM's being murdered by other YBM's.

Of the 50% of non-black murder victims, (Hispanic and white being lumped together, since treating "Hispanic" as an ethnos presents its own problems: most of the Hispanic residents of Miami's Alapattah district are black Cubans), about half are killed by other non-blacks, 24% by blacks, and 25% by "unknown": the FBI's stratagem, in the 90's, for dodging the fact that the "unknown" murderers were black (this was during the Clinton Administration, mind).

In the 90's, 6000 non-blacks per year were being murdered by blacks. But Cynthia McKinney grieved openly in the Atlanta Urinal-Constipation over the 4700 blacks lynched from 1866 to 1962.
