Hello Madam. How are you, have a nice Christmas season?
If you’d really love to blow their minds tell them Fredrick Douglass was a Republican ad there is a web site called “Fredrick Douglas Republicans.com.
We watch the movie Roots this month and play it backwards so it has a happy ending
Why is that team not being cancelled for having a ‘violent’ name?
The Rio Negro is said to be home to almost 800 fish species!
Black History and Abortion
Black History Month should remind people Democrats professed an apparent contradiction as they seceded to begin the Civil War.
They demanded protection where slavery existed, and the right to take their “peculiar property” into the territories. They had demanded trading their property across state lines and that states enforce the Fugitive Slave Law. Yet during prior and final Congressional debates, and in the Confederate Constitution Southerners joined near universal condemnations of international slave trading.
This contradiction vanished when understanding the South was being overrun with its property. Democrat Senator Alfred Iverson of Georgia said before Congress in 1861, “We know well that we never can enjoy equal possession of the territories without protection of our property….. They increase, according to the last census bill, at the rate of 32% every ten years.” The South needed new slave states and plantations to absorb the increasing population.
Over one hundred fifty years later black communities provide voting plurality to the Democrat party and adopt their Pro-Choice sacrament of abortion. According to the Centers for Disease Control, black women in 2021 accounted for 25% of abortions, though blacks constituted 15% of total population. Applying antebellum population growth with the Roe v. Wade decision as a marker would mean 95 million blacks instead of the 50 million currently living.
So, what benefits override the contradiction of providing the Democratic party 90% voting support, compared to the antebellum mandate for contributing 60% of black humanity to enrich the Democrat slave master’s political status?
Thank you for the back ground info.
Do you know, as I’ve been told that the NAACP was founded in 1908 in NYC by the New York Republican Party to protest lynching of Blacks, Jews and Catholics in that South? Is that true?
We do have Military Appreciation Month with May.
Harris is hardly more black than she is a man.
There’s an Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month and a National Hispanic Heritage Month.
here’s Morgan Freeman in a short video explaining why he doesn’t enjoy black history month:

I assume that commercials will be 100% black this month? Admittedly, not much of a change from 90%, but still.
“There’s an Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month and a National Hispanic Heritage Month.”
Without looking it up, would you even know what month they are? And what about White European Heritage Month?
I would have no idea. And white people don’t get a month, but practically every minority you can imagine does.
Per Wikipedia
The Race Riot of 1908 in Springfield, Illinois, the state capital and Abraham Lincoln’s hometown, was a catalyst showing the urgent need for an effective civil rights organization in the U.S. In the decades around the turn of the century, the rate of lynchings of blacks, particularly men, was at an all-time high. Mary White Ovington, journalist William English Walling and Henry Moskowitz met in New York City in January 1909 to work on organizing for black civil rights. They sent out solicitations for support to more than 60 prominent Americans, and set a meeting date for February 12, 1909. This was intended to coincide with the 100th anniversary of the birth of President Abraham Lincoln, who emancipated enslaved African Americans. While the first large meeting did not occur until three months later, the February date is often cited as the organization’s founding date.
