Kids From Ferguson Recruited to ‘Educate White America’ on Racism in ‘Hey White People’ Video
The Blaze ^ | 9/9/14

Posted on 09/10/2014 3:18:55 PM PDT by Altura Ct.

FCKH8.com, a “for-profit T-shirt company with an activist heart” released a new video Tuesday that uses kids from Ferguson, Missouri, to “educate white America about the racist reality in 2014.”

The company recruited six young black kids from Ferguson, reportedly from the same block where 18-year-old Michael Brown was fatally shot by a police officer.

“Armed ONLY with statistics (hands up, don’t shoot) these articulate and adorable kids are not having it while much of white America would rather pretend racism is over,” the video’s description reads.

The video starts with the kids noting that Ferguson is the place “where white police shot an unarmed black teen in the face.” One of the kids is heard labeling the shooting a “national disgrace.”

The kids go on to mock various statements that some white people allegedly say about black people and racism, according to the video’s creators. These include:

• “All this focus on race makes me uncomfortable.” • “It’s you people who are making this about race.” • “I don’t see color.” • “You people are just playing the race card.” • “Some of my best friends are black.”

Later in the video, a white man makes an appearance and proclaims that it’s white people’s responsibility to “own up and face” racism.

Finally, the company pitches its $13 “Racism is not over but I’m over racism” T-shirts. The for-profit company vows to donate $5 of the proceeds to charities working to fight racism.”

This is childish, and if the grown ups of our society actually ran things, this childishness would end post haste.

Sadly, children run our country, and have influence in our society now.

OK. I “owned up”. Now what? Are you happy? Or do you need mo’money and some mo’gibsmedats?

Since racism cannot be seen or detected by white people, then what do we do about it? Any attempt to prove we aren’t racist is seen as proof of racism just because we tried and failed (according to those who can “see” racism).

Racism is the reason no one cared about the clerk who was roughed up and robbed, and then had his store burned out.

Basically, phrases like “educate white America about the racist reality in 2014.” are just code for what the activist black elites REALLY desire:

reparations

Of course its whites who need to get over racism. We also need to end our knock out games of innocent black pedestrians, stop robbing convenience stores, taking part in drive by shootings, having 70%+ of our babies out of wedlock, selling crack on the corner, taking the bait car in every episode on tv, singing songs full of profanity and violence, and everything else we are doing to keep racism going. I promise to be the first white boy to stop doing these things, right now!

Convenience store owners and employees need to “recruit” their kids to do a “video” called “Hey Black People”. That would be cute too.

I hope this is a joke. There’s nothing that these social pariahs can teach me about racism. Witness the thugs, riots, “knock-out” beatings, lootings, etc.

Stay away from me and my family. Cleanup your neighborhoods, get married, have families, go to Christian churches, and then start preaching.

I agree. Racism is not over. Anti white racism is very much alive and well in America, and it is NEVER going away.

The self hating white guy in the video reminds me of the Chinese Cultural Revolution where doomed citizens had to admit to their crimes as charged by the state and suffer the consequences. He’s lucky he didn’t get sucker punched a la Memphis while making the video.

What bothers me is black conservatives are failing to articulate to the real reason why the regime is promoting racial division. Or express concern how the fabrication of events is manipulated propaganda being used that is turning into destroying as the balance of society views it, into questioning whatever is left of black decency ? .

Those so called Martin/Brown Ferguson organized “protests” should be investigated. It’s clear it benefits the regime. What are the reasons for creating racial division by the regimes propaganda which has by its silence condoned looting, and created the climate resulting in racial attacks ending in murders of whites,hispanics and asians. ? And winds up portraying a black society that lacks a moral compass and has no basic values of right and wrong.

I suspect they’ll make a lot of money off this for the same reason that yap music rules among black youth. I’ve never figured out how yapping = music, but black youth seem to find it pleasing to the ears.

My recollection is that Holder and Justice funded the protests in the Trayvon case.

It will not surprise me if he did the same at Ferguson. Someone pays Sharpton’s fee.

The Chinese victims had their families held hostage to those confessions. What's the white guy's excuse? Still, I wouldn't call him self-hating. He loves himself. It's those other unenlightened individuals that he hates.
