I think most of our slaves came from the Caribbean and Brazil. IOW we bought people who were already slaves.
obama sang “Amazing Grace” at a funeral.
He did do without knowing the history of the song, the meaning of the words of the song or the real reasons of the murders.
He just knew he could politicize the event.
He doesn’t care about solving problems. Only keeping power.
Dignity don’t pay no bills.
Well, the article points out many truths - did the media go after and destroy this person yet?
A person will never be paid more than what it costs to replace them and the skills that they bring, OR less than what their pride will allow them to accept for the work performed. It is those two ends that define one’s salary range.
BINGO !
Slaves scraped and scrimped and worked their butts off for whatever meager personal possessions they were able to buy and keep. They have their own human dignity than can never e taken away by ANYONE.
Welfare Slaves on the other hand have their basics given to them by the state and they don’t have to work for the basics so their personal human pride is virtually non-existent.
The quickest way to destroy human dignity is to destroy one’s purpose in life by not demanding anything from a person.
[ Dignity don’t pay no bills. ]
“Da Gubermint dun pay mah bills”
Dignity may not pay bills, but it is a precious gift that is vital to civilization.
They went into LBJ’s Great Society with a job, some dignity and their family intact. They came out of it with a food stamp card and a Democrat ballot in their hand. Now they are slaves on the Democrat plantation.
This leads to the ghetto culture's pathological emphasis on elaborate displays of, and demands for, "respect" ... and the ghetto culture's murderous response to any offense or slight, real or perceived, no matter how small.
I fully expect Booker T. Washington to be labeled an “Uncle Tom” if his quotes continue to be used by Conservatives.
I’m not sure about that, but after 1807 they were all “home grown”
The Left robbed them of dignity—in return they got the vote—But they had to vote the way they were told or suffer for their independence by being called “Uncle Toms” —or worse. Drugs, welfare, race baiters—all have taken away any chance they could have had—a few still do escape!

I notice during ‘Black History Whatever”, they never mention Booker T. Washington.
I was looking at pictures of the young ladies who were attending Spelman College back in the 1950s and 60s. They were all slender, pretty, and dignified in their white dresses.
Contrast that with your average young black woman today.
But the same could be said for young women of other races.
Their grandmothers would be mortified.
Present day Democrats buy their slaves using taxpayer money.
