Democrats & Jim Crow: A Century of Racist History the Democratic Party Prefers You'd Forget

In the last Presidential election, Donald Trump was lauded for his performance among black voters – he scored 4 percent of female black voters and a whopping 13 percent of black male voters, the highest since Richard Nixon. This isn’t shocking. Black voters have voted en masse for the Democratic Party since the mid-60s and the passage of the 1964 Civil Rights Act, the Voting Rights Act and the social welfare programs of the Great Society. This solidified black voters behind the Democratic Party, but they had been moving there since the New Deal.

However, it’s a historical anomaly in the United States. The traditional home of the black voter was the Republican Party, due to its historical role in ending slavery and introducing Reconstruction Acts and Amendments to the Constitution. It also did not help that the Democratic Party was the party of Jim Crow, a system of legally enforced segregation present throughout the American South in the aftermath of the Civil War.

Dinesh D’souza has a youtube chat where he talks about the dems giving free food to the blacks in the south during the depression..

Even though the dems used the KKK to run the south and keep blacks in line,blacks still voted for the dems ....Blacks were still getting free stuff...

This is why they're taking down all the statues of dead Democrats. They're re-writing history.
Who controls the past controls the future, and who controls the present controls the past.

Yeah, DR3 is fun to gig them with for the hypocrisy, but the Democrat Party of today would like very much to genocide people of European descent and replace them with browns. It’s not 1965 anymore.

Remember the dems were the KKK-now the same white dems are killing black babies. The problem is NOT Trump or the republicans. Blacks still support those that lynched them and kill their babies. When will you wake up and learn. Abortions kills more black babies in 4 days than all the lynchings combined. The white dems did the lynchings and now they abort black babies.

The Democratic Party of today pushes through the agenda of the globalist elite who basically view all the little people as obstacles to their reallocation of the world’s real estate to themselves. They may use race to keep us divided and squabbling amongst ourselves, but they burn villages in Africa, they turn criminal gangs loose on farmers in Guatemala, and you have heard how they talk about “deplorables” here. I frankly think they want open borders here to lure black and brown people off their land, and reparations from America instead of reparations from the companies that owe them to living breathing people from the developing world as a means to look like they have done right by people while loading up the U.S. with debt and then selling it at fire sale like a 1980’s corporate raider. This is whose side the Democrats are on. They are not on the side of the peasants.

Amusing story about race relations in Pecos, Texas in 1963. Our school was racially about half and half Latino and white.

We had fewer than ten blacks in the high school. Two of which were my dear friends. Most oddly they had to take a side. They choose our side and at that time this seemed perfectly normal. The few other blacks wisely chose not side.

I find it most odd to comment on this as a function of the 60s. I had zero prejudice then but today the media tells me I was most prejudiced.

Oddly their was no racial strife. There was not many blacks then in Pecos, Texas. I myself married a wonderful Mexican lady of extreme education in my late years. My second choice was a wise choice.

The military had been desegregated by Theodore Roosevelt. It was then resegregated by Wilson. He was also responsible for all those army bases named after Confederate generals.

Abortion is a better deal than lynching, You can actually convince black people to pay for their own genocide. /sarcasm

Democrats: “Negroes cannot be held to the same standards as Caucasians.../. because they’re genetically unable to meet those standards.”

Same Dem attitude today.

Dems went from punishing this Negroes’ failure to rewarding it.
But, at heart it’s all the same.

I detest the democrats. Everything about them. Nobody really cares about their past. When I was 18 I was bona Fide communist. All changed around 19th birthday. Would not want anybody to see me that way now.
Democrats are evil and dangerous NOW1
