"I don't think African-Americans should be asked to give up their symbols. Symbols are reminders of something that represent a custom and a part of history." These are the same people who go ballistic at the sight of a Confederate flag though...

One of the best eye-opening exercises for grade-schoolers is the white for black word substitution. In one day a classroom of all races understood the real meaning of racism.

"...Other than being the target of misinformation, I don't know what to make of this,..."
Mrs. Griffin said.
"...Something has been taken out of context by someone. As a result, all of these accusations,every one of them borders on slander against all of us..."

The "fairness" and "justice" crowd congregate here:
Institute for Policy Studies who: The Progressive Challenge, coordinated from the Institute for Policy Studies, links
researchers, activists, and citizens organizations with the Congressional Progressive Caucus. --See if your congresscritter is one of the 57 members.
past events: The Progressive Challenge has organized a number of Economic Human Rights Bus Tours, bringing Members of Congress and journalists to rural Georgia and northern Appalachia to witness socio-economic disparity and talk with residents about their challenges. The project also organizes town meetings and Congressional hearings, and was active in advocating open Presidential debates.
history: The Progressive Challenge began as a 1997 summit on Capitol Hill between progressive Members of Congress and leaders of national advocacy organizations. From this meeting grew the Congressional Progressive Caucus and the network that we now know as the Progressive Challenge. Member groups established a common set of objectives in creating the Fairness Agenda for America.

Perhaps a campain can be created that would FORCE this school system to change the word "BLACK" to "WHITE"... or then propose "MULTICOLOR".

While 911 stirred alot of patriotic ardor, it also ironically encouraged many subversive groups to interpret 911 as an opportunity to loudly communicate their anti-american bias. In New York City, there is a newly elected black councilman who wants to replace the portrait of George Washington in the City Hall with Malcom X! He calls Thomas Jeferson a Pedophile!
To: vannrox
Frank is one of Progressive Caucus. They're working to undermine our system of government and pattern it after marxism.
Division and class and race hatred are the meat on the bones of their "fairness agenda." Know your enemies.

Just for kicks, try looking up the "Cristian Pledge of Allegiance."
I just woke up to this at my kids school, but I see it too has been around for many Clinton-era years. Isn't the Lord's prayer good enough?

When liberals are caught, they always scream "taken out of context!"
To: MeeknMing
Thanks for the heads up!
To: Redleg Duke
This bs only goes on because the vast majority of us are either too busy working or too intimidated to stand up to it. I would bet alot of blacks are also offended by it. Besides with the growth of the latino population in a few years blacks will be irrelevant as a voting bloc.

Let the rats come out of the woodwork, let the serpents slither out from under their rocks into the light of day.
Let's get a real good look at them.
Let's remember who they are and what they represent.

We pledge allegiance of the red, black and green
Our flag, the symbol of our eternal struggle,
and to the land we must obtain!
ONE nation of BLACK people,
with one God for us all,
Totally united in the struggle for BLACK Love,
BLACK Freedom, and BLACK determination.
Well, lets look at the reality around this bigotry.
They live in ONE NATION UNDER GOD! Whether they chose to participate or not.
Africa today still has tribal genocide, murder of whites and not one successful place governed by themselves that I can think of.
They don't want to be judged by the color of their skin, yet it is all they ever want to bring up. Black...Black...Black.
Their view of the world will keep them in the dark. They often in song refer to their women as bitches and the men call themselves the n-word. If it wasn't for government employment I would think 55% of the population would be unemployed. Their culture is an almost complete failure in this country when they get away from the main stream of America.
It has been complete failure around the rest of the world. They still sell their brethren into slavery today in modern times.
There would be more legitimacy in praising lint than their view of a Black anything!

The thing is bad enough as it stands. No good will come of forcing anything. It speaks for itself.
To: willyone
The really sad thing is that by mindlessly doing what the DemocRATS have been telling them for years has made them irrelevent. Talk about self-inflicted slavery!

I'm tempted to join the KKK just to tell a really long winded, epic Winnie the Pooh story. One that would bring a real panic to old Chuckie boy the control freak Schumer.

Get ready for civil war...
To: vannrox
Bump for comments. Doesn't this anger anyone? As an American who happens to be black, this makes me furious.
I was going to say white with fury, but I know someone (not one of the posters on this thread, of course) would deliberately mis-interpret it ...

Was I hallucinating or did one of the links mention the black Pledge of Allegiance (or was it Kwanza) was created by an offshoot of the Black Panthers?
