I had a really good post all ready to go. There was a video posted by the Trinity United Church of Christ, which I found on their YouTube page, of Louis Farrakhan being honored with the Jeremiah A. Wright Trumpeter award. It's gone from YouTube. And there was a video of disgraced Detroit Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick receiving a similar award. It's gone from YouTube, too.
But the one I'm really mad about is the one of the church's new pastor, Otis Moss III, talking about gangster rap and crack cocaine. They pulled that one, as well. Maybe it had something to do with his blaming gangster rap on suburban white kids and big corporate media. I didn't really follow his logic, but somehow Ronald Reagan and AOL were involved and there's a hint that the same people who created gangster rap also created crack cocaine.
Although the video is gone, this blogger has a partial transcript:
Moss, continuing on his historical review of hip-hop: "But then something happened in 1984 at the same time that Time Warner/AOL and SONY and MCA realized they could make money off of this music, guess what, we will give you a contract and distribute your song if you put in the N-word, if you put in the H-word, if you put in the B-word...so when we talk about gangsta rap, we are not talking about something that came from the street, we are talking about what came from the corporate boardrooms...
"And the same time that gangsta rap rises, we also have crack hitting the streets...I'm not a conspiracy theorist, but it's mightily strange that gangsta rap and crack hit the same time in our community."
I guess I'm just cherry-picking, right?
They are calling them back to the Big Space Ship in the sky. Screwy Louie arranged it.
People are marking them as abusive or questionable content etc, so youtube embargos them until they can be “reviewed” and a decision made. At their leisure, of course.
"Naughty bits"?
"Hymietown"?
"Barack"???
The medium is the message...
the left is working the template
Why Are Reverend Wright Videos Disappearing from YouTube?......For the same reason China has shut down YouTube for videos of the Tibet Massacre.....
Google-Youtube also used to censor Michele Malkin’s own video blogs citing them as “racist” and “adult only” content.
Yikes...between this an what Sweetness and Light had up today showing the morphing of the Trinity Church website from the black agenda to...something less racist, it looks as though damage control is WELL underway.
Of course this will make everything fine- we can pretend it never happened.
Wonder if they can be rescued via Google’s cache or the WayBackMachine?
Real Good..
Scary good.
Internet archive..
Buy an ignorant Ghetto rat a snazzy spiritual PimP suit for TV and he is still a Ghetto rat.. all dressed up.. for the Ho’s..
Greg should send his complaints to Hellary’s campain staffers.
They will pull the necessary strings to ensure Obama is sufficiently slammed.
After all - not one ounce of dirt is thrown on Obama without the full knowledge and support of Hillary ‘08.
. . but ! BUT ! ! ! ,.. I thought these folks wanted “an informed electorate” .... {/srcsm}
But I have been told that when white people object to rap music it is an indication of their racism and a demonstration of their lack of understanding of the Black community.
used to? are they back?
They certainly can be captured and preserved, but we need someplace besides the ultra-leftist you-tubers to host them. The guy who put together you-tube might not have been a genius, but he struck gold.
The prize goes to the guy who can put together a you-tube site that isn’t completely toxic to thinking humans...
They are as paranoid as the Muslim World is about “Fitna.”
