If he wants to challenge his concept of slavery he can head right over to the Sudan.

That would challenge his view of the world though.

Wonder what he has to say about the blacks who gave away or sold the other blacks to the slave traders????

Just tall tales concocted by the "wypipo" (that seems to be his default position).

Dear Mike,

We don’t care anymore.

Civil Rights was a failure. You guys never got past being permanently pi**ed off (PPO).

So we officially are saying Buh-Bye.

Go fart in the wind, and find someone who gives a poop.

We’re fresh out.

Signed,

The White People

Black sounding names??

Why is it, 50 or more years ago, blacks had the same types of first names as whites?

Actually, it isn’t my job to care on the terms many folks seem to offer.

The slaves and freedmen are all dead and their claims died with them.

The slave owners are all dead and whatever guilt they may have had was interred with their bones.

Suffering is always and only personal, it is not communicable.

Likewise responsibility is not communicable.

I do NOT care about the suffering of entities, mere abstractions of persons.

I could go on given specifics to respond to but in a nutshell it is this: I’m just not interested in your drama, I just don’t owe you a thing. To the extent I find any interest it is to oppose such claims.

If you’re a SJW I’m at the point that whatever you want I’ll do the opposite. You want to take down a statue? I’ll suggest putting two more up. You want to rename something? Revert the names of two things renamed.

It’s good when SJWs are offended. I sometimes think they can’t be properly happy unless they think they’ve got reason to be miserable at some level so it’s a service to offend one.

I wonder if The Root understands their name as used in Australia?

It isn’t right to claim that black people are cowardly and evil and it isn’t right to claim the same thing about white people. Racism will never EVER end as long as people keep stuffing one another into demographic pigeonholes. Identity politics is only good for promoting institutionalized intolerance.

I am so glad I am not black. To live with all of the hate on daily basis must be exhausting.

“And most white people don’t actively fight to eradicate inequality and injustice because they usually benefit in some small way.”

That’s an outright lie. As a matter of fact, white people are the first people who have outlawed slavery, fool author.

How often has this author written against modern slave trade or denounced the non-whites behind it?

The Party prefers illegal immigrants over white, Christian, heterosexual males.

If it weren’t for a relative few habitual criminals many places in the US would be much nicer to live in. It’s ironic that the selfsame habitual criminals have convinced too many of their victims that they’re victims of the cops who are there to protect the innocent. I guess it’s like being kidnapped and coming to empathize with your kidnapper.
