Your article was exactly true....you did a wonderful essay, thank You!
You nailed it, dammit.
Succinct and skillfully done.
Too many people profit off the system as it is. They cannot allow Blacks to rise above the disaster that welfare statism has wrought for over a half century and counting, because those aforementioned people would lose their jobs, their livelihoods and their power. Booker T. Washington recognized that a century ago and spoke out on it.
You’re completely right. The stats are damning.
In my daily life, the blacks I know in my workplace and in my golf league are great people. Brass tacks, they know the stats too.
Excellent essay!
Vanity of the month — at least.
You should have your own blog — and then post excerpts here, to annoy the highly annoyable.
Sharpton sneers and says, "That's racist!"
The moderator smiles and says, "Thank you, Reverend, for your honesty and clarity. That's all we have time for tonight. Good night, folks."

Every possible societal division in our nation has been exploited by the Left. Divide and Conquer.
In this sense, the Left understands the nature of republics better than conservatives. The Left has long known that a certain level of commonality, of shared traditions and attitudes are essential. Keeping blacks poor/ignorant/violent, importing illegals and muzzies, destroying marriage/family, stomping on Christianity . . . all serve to destroy free government.
Corruption of American society didn't well up from the people; our licentiousness was seeded from above.
You need a Ping List.
Writing this good is unfortunately too rare on FR. And I’m not talking about the Freepers. I’m talking about the articles we post.
Keep it up. Your post was right on the mark.
It is sad to think so much potential, so many good minds wasted, so many lives wrecked just so LBJ could have people vote Democrat for a half century.
Those who followed have, in typical liberal fashion, continued to double down time and again on the folly that started it all.
“...History doesnt suffer fools, nor does God; mankind does.”
Perversion of history and ignorance of history are the most effective and cherished tools of Marxism and Nazism and yes, even of despair itself.
A few examples:
The Catholic Church has found itself without a valid pontiff and with a corrupted Mass after modernists have ignored the solemn teaching of the massive body of saints, prior pontiffs and of even the words of Christ Jesus when in the Vatican II council in the 60’s a revolution took root which leaves the numbers of the faithful diminishing at a staggering rate. Where does the solution lie? In a return to tradition, and reexamination of what once was and has been forgotten.
The Communists, whenever they come to power make it a priority to destroy the victim culture with an abhorrence of their past. A soon to be vanquished society’s own founding fathers are ridiculed and scorned and cast into doubt. Their art is perverted by anything that is new or is not of the past.
How many people get trapped into suicidal mentality when the events of the moment overwhelm them till they forget sweet moments of childhood, of beautiful friendships, yes and of sweet moments of prayer. It is when their mind is able to recover such sweet memories, that hope resurges. Raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens... (Sound of Music)
The point is, there is an underlying enemy at work here and we better wake up by studying history of our culture, getting familiar with it and deciding ourselves what should be held to and what if anything should be left behind, as the author of this well written author has done is reminding us of the noble past of so many of the slave descendants living in the United States of America.
Otherwise, we will be led to despair and will then accept whatever preconceived idea of culture is offered to or forced upon us, be it Freemasonry, Nazism, Islam, Socialism, or Communism; whatever the attacking force is.
Get the facts straight on history and value them highly! Knowledge of history is a prerequisite to salvation and healing!
You need to publish that on its own page somewhere.

I have some black friends (or African-America if you prefer the term) who are some of the most devoted followeres of Jesus I have ever seen. Their love for Him is deep, and when they speak about what Christ has done for them their emotions can bring them to tears.
Most Americans are not Christians (nominal "christians" or "raised that way" do not count). To be a Christian means Jesus is in your life, and you have been redeemed.
The 95% of black "Christians" who voted for Obama (twice) are not followers of Jesus Christ.
I am sorry, but they are not. Christ told us by their fruits we would know them. Someone cannot say they bow to Jesus and have supported Obama Hussein Soetoro. Twice. Despite all the evil he has done and is doing, they voted for him.
What an AWESOME article, and SO true! Both side politically have failed. It’s time to stop blaming,feeling entitled, and fixing this plight from within! Blacks have been used and abused by powerful people of their own for financial gains. It’s time to move past them, and become who they are supposed to be!
Good job..
