ACORN’s former chief calls for more immigration to boost black power
Daily Caller ^ | 09/20/2013 | Neil Munro

ACORN’s former CEO Bertha Lewis urged Africans-Americans to support increased immigration as a strategy to gain political power.

“We got some Latino cousins, we got some Asian cousins, we got some Native-American cousins, we got all kind of cousins,” said Lewis, who spoke Thursday at the annual political conference of the Congressional Black Caucus.

“Cousins need to get together because if we’re going to be [part of the non-white] majority, it makes sense for black people in this country to get down with immigration reform,” said Lewis, whose ACORN group was formally disbanded in 2010 after a series of scandals.

Lewis did not mention solidarity with whites in her appeal for power.

“Everyone, even all white folks in this country, acknowledge that in a minute, [the] United States of America will be a new majority, will be majority minority, a brand-new thing,” she said.

In 2012, “for the first time ever in history, African-Americans outvoted white Americans. Oooh. That’s the fear of the white man. That could change everything. That’s why [immigration] should matter to us,” she declared.

Lewis got only modest applause from the room of 300 attendees, nearly all of whom were black.

But her appeal for non-white solidarity was backed up by New York Democratic Rep. Yvette Clarke.

Yes, we gotta do all we can to keep whitey down.

Why shouldn’t I have known it was never about equality?

Rather than seeing each other as cousins, some of the most racist anti-black statements I've heard have come from Hispanics and Asians.

That's because they haven't been subject to two generations of guilt-tripping and educational/media indoctrination, like whites have.

We need a 20-year moratorium on ALL immigration. 20 years should give us time to get some sensible immigration laws in place. Also give us time to expel all illegals.

Do you mind if we make that 30 years? It will take at least that long to assimilate the people who have come here over the last 30 years.

That's quite likely to cover me until passage to the great beyond.

For some reason white America is unable or unwilling to accept the idea that blacks resent or hate we whites. It is a form of white Psychological denial which means the resentment and/or hatred cannot be effectively dealt with.
