Radical Leftists at CNN: Juneteenth Must Mean HR 1, Critical Race Theory, Reparations
NewsBusters ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Posted on 06/18/2021 2:09:51 PM PDT by governsleastgovernsbest

Juneteenth, a day that celebrates the ending of slavery in the United States is now a national holiday. The move to make it one had wide bipartisan support, passing unanimously in the Senate. Republicans, Democrats, conservatives and liberals have hailed it as a day of unity for America. CNN, however, has other ideas. The network on Friday brought in Natasha Alford, a CNN analyst, to twist the moment into supporting:

The teaching in public schools of Critical Race Theory and the principles of the 1619 Project.
Reparations.
HR 1, the so-called For the People Act, which would largely federalize elections.

I thought Juneteenth was a day of Mourning for Democrats nationwide after the Republicans Freed Thier Slaves? Did I miss something?

Slavery is a sore that could and should have somewhat healed. There is not a human being alive who was enslaved by Americans and very few whose entire lineage is completelty from slaves.

Whites Freed the Slaves (I will never call it “Junexxxxx”) day will now annually be a rip on the scab reopening the wound. Which is the agenda of the race pimps.

Booker T Washington warned of people like this. I’m disappointed that his quote isn’t brought out and thrown in their face.

We have been paying reparations since the mid 1960s and Lyndon Johnson’s Great Society. Really, enough is enough.

The irony of the holiday is that most of the men responsible for it, didn’t look anything at all like the people we’ll see on TV talking about it.

Celebrate Juneteenth, yes. But the rest, no. How about we offer repatriation to anyone unhappy with America or being in America and that wants to return to their ancestral homeland? Send the home!

The new Juneteenth holiday will further divide this nation. From now on, the Marxists and their associated groups will celebrate Juneteenth. The rest of America will celebrate July 4th.

How about a holiday to recognize the modern-day slavery in China?

The people behind Juneteenth, HR 1, Critical Race Theory, and Reparations, are A-OK with outsourcing slave labor to China so they can have cheap goods.

We can start to establish a holiday right here. Maybe call it Nike Day.

Its just another way to divide and conquer by opening a wound they never want to see healed. The Communists found out they could not win by class division so they do the split by race instead.

I've come to the conclusion Trump had the commies so upset they launched their revolution into overdrive because Trump was putting an end to the death by a thousand small cuts approach.

Race hustlers got no reason,
Race hustlers got no reason in their heads,
Race hustlers got no reasons to give,

They got, thoughts about skin and excuses galore
They got ideas that are stupid for sure,
They got tiny ethics and tell great big lies
They don’t ever shut up,
Let me put you wise,

Don’t want no race hustlers,
Don’t want no race hustlers,
Singing, don’t want no race hustlers around here!

No, it’s about fostering hatred of white people for their alleged crimes.

“There is a class of colored people who make a business of keeping the troubles, the wrongs, and the hardships of the Negro race before the public.

Having learned that they are able to make a living out of their troubles, they have grown into the settled habit of advertising their wrongs - partly because they want sympathy and partly because it pays.

Some of these people do not want the Negro to lose his grievances, because they do not want to lose their jobs.”

- Booker T. Washington (1856 - 1915), historical black educator and Presidential advisor

Add the cost of the Civil War, the disruption to the economies of the North and South, reconstruction and on and on. We’ve more than paid the debt.

Many of us could see this coming. This holiday will serve as another excuse to gin up resentments and grievances.
