Chris Rock explained in a lengthy interview Sunday that he believes part of healing racial relations in America is by white people “owning” the actions of their ancestors.

The friends, all in their early 20s and members of the city’s Somali community, chatted, drank and chewed the stimulant khat.

This installment shows the War on Women has always been conducted by the Democrats. They have always rubbed minorities in the dirt and bragged about it as they smugly went about their dirty business. Chapter Ten: Democrat assaults on Women and minorities Women Suffrage On January 10, 1878 Aaron Sargent, a California Republican, introduced Susan B.

But slavery was a worldwide curse for thousands of years, as far back as recorded history goes. Over all that expanse of time and space, it is very unlikely that most slaves, or most slave owners, were either black or white....

A Copperhead newspaper in Wisconsin published a pamphlet titled Abraham Africanus I which accused Lincoln of selling his soul to Satan in return...
