Booker T. Washington’s eloquence was repeated, in essence, by Morgan Freeman — interviewed by Mike Wallace, he said...”stop calling me black” stop making it defining. It was a great point, and he has paid for it from the liberal Left.
They’ve gone after “the black man” with a #metoo rape claim agenda. Can’t be talking unity, nope- liberals don’t want that... and more precisely the black white man, obamaumao the marxist definitely didn’t want that.
Sad but true.
The Left represents poor hate for anyone with a moral
compass, anyone with a multi-generational perspective. Indulged in their destructive purpose, all real human progress becomes impossible; for their attack is on all the motivations for constructive behavior.
At best they are useful idiots for the Left. But my impression is that there’s more going on with them than simple confusion.
No, you didn’t— but SPLC was stated as the source and basis of this clearly PR puff editorial piece article from WWL in New Orleans. Pure propaganda. The goal of a Southern heritage group to have their history portrayed of their military kin’s uniforms— that is what you derided.
It might surprise you to know that the majority of the finest military leadership since that war, came from the South, including many descendants of CSA general officers- George Patton, George Marshall,Douglas MacArthur come to mind, and many more of different services in WWI WWII and right to the present day. The warrior class that serves this USA. This is not something the general public would be aware of—granted. But nonetheless recognized by our US military historians- those who haven’t been coopted by the “let’s erase history” crowd.
My point— you buy in to the SPLC Cultural Marxist history removal agenda and false propaganda, when you repeat a falsehood that is over 100 years old, which simple historical research factually has disproven. Jefferson Davis was a decorated hero of the Mexican War, as was Robert E. Lee, who further went on to supervise the building of US coastal forts and Superintendent of West Point (US Army military academy).
Might add, in case you didn’t know— that there is a statue of Jefferson Davis in the U.S. Capitol. It is on the website, with many others, of the Architect of the Capital.
“Nikki Haley, Dinesh, and the NRO coven will be pleased.”
The only thing they like better than the memory hole is meaningless, endless war.
One of the major ways the Left manages to neuter not really ideological types—but ambitious to impress—is the idea of being on ‘the right side of history.” Most so called Rhino Republicans display aspects of this false narrative—false in not being related to the policies claimed under that umbrella,
Jefferson Davis was a Democratic president that lost his bid to win another term in office.
Very well put. They are anti-American, and their cultural and political agenda is pure Marxism. It has never been their goal to take the South out of Poverty, nor to render any kind of Legal/Law support, but rather to line their pockets with millions of slush fund dollars which were banked offshore. The IRS has never looked into this.
As such you are dead right— anything to destroy constructive behaviour for the Southern region and any other area of the US. Morris Dees is one pervo piece of work. A thoroughly destructive pissed off... but well paid ultra leftist (aren’t they all?). Many thanks.
Again, consider Misdirection: Familiar Leftist Tactic.
By all means, fight for your local statue. But if you want to make a tangible contribution to preserving the nation's historical memory, the ABT is a good place to help. It is still active and going strong. It rates very high on Charity Navigator. Good people. Good mission. It raises money to buy dirt to save battlefields. It does not want to be a land management agency, so its acquisitions are generally turned over to local partners (the National Park Service, state and local park authorities, or a private foundation) for long-term management.
The recent name change, by the way, has nothing to do with controversies over the Civil War. Because of its great track record, the Trust was asked by the National Park Service to help preserve Revolutionary War and War of 1812 sites as well. The new name reflects its broader scope, though the Civil War will continue to account for the vast bulk of its efforts.
Title of Michelle’s college thesis:
“WHY I HATE AMERICA”.
There is also a Faneuil Square,a Faneuil St.,and a Faneuil Branch Library.
Will these maniacs want to change these too? Makes me want to cry.

Yep— and these bozos want to change the name to “honor” Crispus Attucks. Who was drunk in the encounter with the British guard unit being harrassed by the colonists. How do we know? The transcript of the trial, in shorthand of the court scribe, in which Adams described Attucks (who was under an alias a Michael Johnson) as part of “a motley rabble of saucy boys, negroes and mullatoes, Irish teagues and outlandish jack tarrs”- all having come in a mob from the taverns on the docks. None the less Attucks had put much at risk being there, as he was also a prior runaway slave, and worried about being impressed into the Brit navy.
Attucks would certainly NOT be the proper name to re-name the Hall. Better might be John Adams if anything.
As well as the Straussians and other neocons....are are really just warlike liberals.

“Attucks would certainly NOT be the proper name to re-name the Hall. Better might be John Adams if anything.”

Or name it Market Hall——who on earth could find fault with that?

That is a Damned lie
