FLOTUS plays race card: Museums are for white people
BizPacReview.com ^ | 5/05/15 | Nicole Haas

First lady Michelle Obama used a speech Monday that was supposed to be celebrating the opening of a new museum to instead dig deeper the racial divide that’s been growing ever wider during her husband’s presidency.

“Museums and concert halls,” she said, just don’t welcome non-white visitors – especially children – the way they welcome whites.

Speaking at the new Whitney museum in New York City’s meat packing district last week, Obama said she grew up thinking that museums were not places “for someone who looks like me.”

While I know this is a microcosm view I have been in museum/displays where kids are touching the exhibits, running all over the place, screaming/yelling and most of the time, not all, they are kids from lower income schools on a field trip.

She sure works overtime with the race issue. They WANT something to happen.

and they have the privilege of living in the/a “White” House.

(and she has re-decorated with African art, and put traditional stuff in storage - That’s why the flower arranger and interior decorator lady “had to go”!)

And IQ tests.

And the SAT, ACT, LSAT, and MCAT. And life.

Remember when she went to Spain and they rented an entire castle?

She later said that The reason for the trip had been to show Malia the rain on the plane.

It isn’t that ridiculous?

“Not sure why Michelle never felt welcome in one.”

Probably because she was never in one honoring Chairman Mao and Josef Stalin.

Yes, she has a lot of issues. She is a disturbed person that needs counseling to overcome her paranoia and hate.

She’s having flashbacks to the Great Museum Crisis of 1985, when non-whites were tossed out of museums. Civil rights justice warriors like her and her husband had to fight to allow equal museum access for all. What heroes Barack and Michelle are!

It’s an anti-Western worldview.

Museums, generally, show the prosperity and cultural advances of Western culture.

The urban/black culture is perpetuated by the left as a foil to Western culture, an anti-culture if you will.

Their goal is the destruction of Western culture,
and therefore, the idea that “people of color” would
join and conform to Western culture is completely anathema to them.

A friend noted that whites outnumbered blacks by 2/3 to 1 at the Martin Luther King Memorial in Atlanta which is both free and located in a mostly black area. The recently opened ‘Museum of Black History’ in DC has the same composition of visitors Blacks don't identify with museums in general or there is a strong animus about what it seen as ‘the White man's places’. It is part of the stupid angry maladaptive mindset which has become the predominant way blacks look at the world, even those who are just as successful or more successful than most whites. It is a really grim place that most blacks live in psychologically. It is also very bad for the US that alienation from the country they are citizens of is relentlessly propagated to rank and file blacks by the so-called black political and cultural elites. Interestingly this is the opposite from what the black elite propagated 50-70 years ago. This change is another of the baleful legacies of the ‘60’s culture’ which has poisoned and corrupted so much of our national culture.

No NR! Just these warped racists in the White House with a huge chip on their shoulders! Black Liberation Theology? Anyone? She’s received every benefit because of her race and by God that isn’t enough!
Screw the both of them!!
I’ve had enough or her and her bullsh@t husband for two lifetimes!

Both in London and NYC, I have seen “multi-cultural” school children being taken by teachers to museums. So she’s wrong about that as well as everything else. Just because she and her dumb husband have no interest in anything cultural doesn’t mean museums are not friendly to everyone. A-hole!

Funny, I have grown up believing that immense swaths of our once-great cities are not meant for people like me to visit.

Not if I want to live, that is.

El wrong-o, fatbottom breath.

Museums are for smart people, which is why neither you nor your quota boy hubby ever go there.

All the blacks I know have real degrees in subjects you wouldn’t have a chance at.

And they go to...and understand...museums.

Sorry, but they are way, way, way above the Dorkbama level.
