Black progressive lawmakers on Sunday questioned the inclusivity of the freedoms celebrated on Independence Day as the White House prepared for an evening of traditional festivities.
As Biden’s White House readied fireworks and burgers for America’s annual celebration of nationhood, progressives expressed their views on what the Fourth of July means from the (b)lack American perspective.
“When they say that the 4th of July is about American freedom, remember this: the freedom they’re referring to is for white people. This land is stolen land and (b)lack people still aren’t free,” tweeted Missouri Rep. Cori Bush. […]
In a searing op-ed for theGrio, Touré, an author and former MSNBC host, criticized the Fourth of July, arguing that it “wasn’t Independence Day for (b)lack people.” He wrote that Juneteenth casts a “long shallow (sic) over Independence Day, making it look like a hypocrite and a damn fool.” …

That question needs to be put to these miscreants.
In a country where the government claims a significant portion of the fruits of your labors before you’ve even earned them, no one is free.
Please, evil white people, send them back to the African paradise you stole them from.
Ask a black African immigrant if blacks are free. You won’t get a woke answer.
Didn’t they just get a Federal holiday celebrating the day they were set free?
As I listen to this simple minded, moronic, black skin privileged elite As demagogue Cori Bush, ranting negatively about the nation that has elected her to to a $175k/year job and lifetime pension, I think that I can surmise what she, as a member of the most important deliberative and legislative body in the world, would propose to rectify it. Since she thinks that this is “stolen land” which the US obtained after defeating the mightiest empire in the world in 1783, purchased from France with the LA purchase, then obtained thru negotiated treaties after war and yes, conquest with Mexico and the Indian Nations.
Would she be willing to propose new legislation and negotiate new treaties to restore the stolen lands to their rightful owners? I wish to God that she would. Then the citizens of this great nation could see quite clearly what a radical lunatic and rabble rouser that she is. Which is precisely why she WON’T do that.
It’s pure horse manure
Government hack Cori Bush does not wish to join with anyone on this matter.
Remember, the second plank of communism is “(a) heavy progressive or graduated income tax”.
And there isn’t an Indian alive today who would wish themselves in their former existence of 37 year life expectance, basket weaving, pottery making, winter starvation and constant warfare with neighbors. That’s the way it was.
If a person is without Jesus fully in their heart, their mind will never allow them to be free - even if they live in the greatest country ever and are occupying the higher levels of leadership roles in the country.
same goes for average citizen, freedom starts with Jesus and your mind, otherwise it’s some mental gymnastics one does - like zuckyboy with flag video - he may love the country he imagines he wants it, but it’s not what USA was established on, or to be.
Horse****.
How do these idiots think they’ll ever get reelected?
Then send them all to africa so they can roam free across the plains.
Socialist immigrate here, get elected to earn $175K plus expenses and after one term retire comfortably and criticize the system that gives them everything after accomplishing nothing but taking up space.
I have Black Fatigue.
Fraud, of course.
They are slaves to the democrats, who deliberately prevent them from getting jobs and rising out of the plantation. Trump had restored jobs for blacks, and the democrats hated that and destroyed his economy, putting millions of blacks out of work.
They have to stop blaming Whitey for their failures.
So what?
