Lately I’ve gotten the impression that MLK, Jr. was all wrong. We aren’t supposed to live in a color-blind society; we’re supposed to live in a color- aware society.
“we’re supposed to live in a color- aware society.”
That depends upon whose doing the evaluation. If it is in the favor of the person doing the evaluation, it works. If not, it comes down to how much needs to be changed to reach that point.
Let’s look at basics. 75 years ago there were a lot of things wrong and the color line was imbalanced. And a majority of it was done in the south and orchestrated by southern democrats. They kept black Americans from voting or even being able to improve themselves to the level of the dems so the libs position of control was protected. It wasn’t until the 60’s when the civil rights acts were voted in, predominately by conservatives, that the libs power was being stripped.
And that’s when they started an all out effort to bribe, intimidate financially, or any other covert action to gain the black vote in America. They did the same thing in the 1700’s when they were controlling congress as at that time, the control of the vote was based upon the amount of people the representative worked for. So by counting the slaves, that they were not actually representing, they increased their voting power. To counter it, the conservatives only were required to count a slave as half a person because the southern dems were not representing them, they were using them. Therefore when the were forced to relinquish a lot of their power after the 60’s they gave the neighboring black reps just enough rope to hang themselves by forcing legislation down their throats. And it continues today. And for reasons I just can’t understand, the black Americans continue to support these libs while they are getting screwed by them.
