Black Tea Party Express Tour Team Member Experienced Racism
The American Thinker ^ | September 16, 2009 | Lloyd Marcus

Posted on 09/16/2009 8:18:12 AM PDT by thefoundersrock

I traveled on the Tea Party Express tour bus as a singer/songwriter, entertainer and spokesperson; 16 states, 34 rallies in two weeks. I experienced vicious racial verbal attacks, not from the tea party protesters. The racial hate expressed against me all came from the left, people who support President Obama's radial socialist agenda.

Unfortunately, my deleted email box is littered with numerous messages expressing the following:

"You are the dumbest self hating f****** n***** I have ever seen!"

These racists are outraged by my opening lines I boldly proclaimed at each rally. "Hello my fellow patriots! I am NOT an African-American! I am Lloyd Marcus, AMERCIAN!"

At every rally, my proclamation inspired great applause and cheers of joy and approval from the audiences. After each rally many came to me with tears in their eyes. They said, "I thank you from the bottom of my heart for what you said. I am Irish (or Italian, or Asian) American. And yet, I would never hyphenate. I feel hyphening divides us. While it is fine to honor one's origin, let's all be American first".

Come on Lloyd...you know you need leftie politicians to think for you. Bow down and give up to their enlightenment.

Doesn’t surprise me at all.

Lloyd Marcus is a wonderful singer/songwriter/patriot!

Mr. Marcus is a FReeper?
I’ve read numerous articles by him and have always enjoyed them.
I consider it an honor to share electrons with him.

We were very happy to see Lloyd Marcus and all the other members of the tea party express in Jackson Michigan. True hope doesn’t come in a particular skin tone.

I got to see and hear Mr. Marcus at the Dallas rally, and his "We're Having a Tea Party" song was stuck in my head for several days!! Spot on lyrics!

Loved this East Texas 'whistle stop' story: "We said the Pledge of Allegiance and Diana lead in the singing of "God Bless America". Many in the crowd were sobbing. Then they showered us with thanks, hugs, bottled water, bags of shacks and homemade treats. I thought, "How many angry racist mobs bake and bring brownies and overwhelm a black guy with affection and hugs?" '

Someone needs to let him know that he spelled "American" incorrectly in his first paragraph--before the liberals jump all over it and call him an ignorant uninformed 'uncle Tom' traitor for his viewpoints against HolyO!

This article ought to appear on the Drudge Report, right under the picture of Carter. If they want the truth about racists then this should be read. Lloyd Marcus exposes their Alinsky tactics again!

What divides our country has nothing to do with skin color or religion.

You are either an AMERICAN, or you are a SCAMERICAN.

Lloyd Marcus is an AMERICAN!

Sometimes, it only takes one courageous man to stand up.

Thanks, Mr. Marcus.

For a moment I erroneously thought of Lloyd Nelson, the singer for Stuck Mojo. Their anti-jihadi Open Season video is still one of my favorites. Sorry to hear that there's still so much racism in this country. No one chooses his/her race so attacking someone for it is stupid.

Lloyd, just remember there are more of us than there are of them.

For inspiration, if you want to read about another true black hero, read ‘Color Of Lightning’, the saga of Britt Johnson.

While watching video of the March on Washington, which was playing the Lee Greenwood song Proud to be an American, it occured to me that what truly divides us is pride in our nation. There are those who believe that with all it’s faults, this is still the greatest nation on God’s green earth, because it is the most free.
And there are those who are ashamed of our country, for reasons which I can’t articulate, because I frankly just don’t get it!
