Salve for the slavery wound

“What can be the content of this knowledge that would bring about this miracle?” you might ask.

Answer: A broad knowledge of the worldwide history of Black slaves, and the images and ideas that are gained from a close reading of Frederick Douglass’ autobiography, Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass, an American Slave, written by himself.

If a nationwide program were undertaken to require that, prior to graduating from high school, all students, white and black, would have to pass courses covering these two topics, the slavery wound would be healed in less than a decade.

Interesting idea but it does not account for the fact that there are many who seek intentionally to keep the "slavery wound" raw and bleeding as long as possible. That includs the minions of Obama and his race-thugs.

Better yet, require that high school students be able to read, write, and add.

Here’s a little slide show video I made about a month ago about the Baptist preacher abolitionist John Brown and the civil war. If anyone wants to check it out.

The song I sang on the video is “John Brown’s Body” During the civil war northern soldiers sang the old song as they marched off to battle. After “Julia Ward Howe” heard Union troops singing the song, she wrote her own words to it’s tune. And soon after, her version was published in the “Atlantic Monthly” as “The Battle Hymn Of The Republic”

Excellent article!

Clear thinking on this subject is particularly in demand now that we have a president who is nothing more than a Harvard-educated, "white-washed" version of Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton or Jeremiah Wright.

Obama has given race-baiting a more conservative suit, a better haircut, and crisper diction...but it is the same old victimization/grievance culture that he is selling.

[Leftism is Mentally Deranged]

It was a horrible injustice. It has been ended. There is no more slavery in the USA. Time to stop trying to promote White Guilt.

[FrogMom]

I have lost all sympathy for the slave mentality.

Don’t try to make me feel guilty about our history when you largely voted yourselves back into slavery in November 2008.
