5 Eyewitness Examples Proving Tea Parties Not Racist
American Thinker ^ | 07/16/2010 | Lloyd Marcus

Posted on 07/16/2010 7:40:17 AM PDT by SeekAndFind

I'm black tea party patriot Lloyd Marcus. I have attended over 200 tea parties nationwide as a spokesperson and performing my "American Tea Party Anthem" on the Tea Party Express.

Incredibly, liberal radio interviewers and their callers and liberal TV interviewers who have not attended a single tea party have vigorously confronted me with accusations of unabated racism in the tea parties. Their beliefs and impression of the tea parties are based on undocumented lies and hearsay shamelessly reported by the liberal mainstream media as fact. Apparently the Obama administration and his media minions are counting on the old adage being true, "Tell a lie long enough and it becomes true."

Well folks, I was there, live, in person, at over 200 tea parties; experiencing the mood and tone of the events and the types of people who attend them. Tea Party attendees are a broad mix of people, granted mostly white, who disagree with Obama's socialist agenda, not his skin color.

Accusers attack, "Why are blacks not attending the tea parties?" During my tea party travels, I have not encountered a single white security guard at rally entrances with orders to "Keep blacks out". Thus, I can only conclude most of my fellow blacks are either frightened to come out of the closet to oppose socialism and express love for their country or they are socialist or racist sheep committed to following their black Sheppard no matter what.

Here are 5 of my eyewitness accounts and personal experiences proving the tea parties are not racist.

1. Against Hyphenating: At every rally, before singing my "American Tea Party Anthem", I say, "Hello my fellow patriots. I am NOT an African-American. I am Lloyd Marcus, AMERICAN!!!" At all 200 tea parties, the crowds of thousands have gone nuts with applause, excitement and approval. They say, "Thank you very much for saying that. Hyphenating divides us". Would racists make such a statement?


2. The Cowboy: At a Texas tea party, a white cowboy, hat, boots and a western shirt approached me pushing a stroller with two black babies. He and his white wife had recently adopted their babies from Africa. "We asked God to send us babies who need our love." Do these two white patriots sound like racists against a black president?


3. The Signs:
Ben Jealous, president of the NAACP is a characterless liar. He has NOT seen signs which read, "Lynch Barack Obama" and "Lynch Eric Holder". Such signs would be the liberal mainstream media and Democrats' dream; a perfect tool to further their efforts to gin up "hate" against tea partiers and send blacks flocking to the polls in  November to defeat the white racist SOBs. If the lynch Obama/Holder signs really existed, they would be all over the media. However, I have seen numerous signs referring to me, a black man, which read, "Lloyd Marcus for President".


4. The Wheelchair Lady:
At a tea party in Traverse City, Michigan, an extremely excited white woman in a wheelchair saw me approaching. She yelled, "Oh my gosh, it's Lloyd Marcus! I love your music! I read your columns! May I have a picture with you?" The wheelchair lady's adult daughter shared with a staff member, "My mom is dying. She said all she wanted to do was to meet Lloyd Marcus". How could anyone call this warm and wonderful patriot a racist?


5. Countless Thanks: Fighting back tears, countless tea party patriots of all ages, races and both sexes have thanked me, a black man, for my efforts to restore our freedoms, liberty and culture. These patriots are not racist, far from it. Because of our shared love for America and freedom, we consider each other brothers and sisters. Attempts to slander them as racists, opposing a president simply because he is black, is evil.


So, there you have it folks; five eyewitness accounts rather than "hearsay and lies" which prove the tea parties are not racist.

In my song, "American Tea Party Anthem" I sing, "So when they call you a racist, cause you disagree. It's just another of their dirty tricks to silence you and me..." Folks, please, please, do not fall for it. Do not allow yourselves to be intimidated and silenced. The stakes are far too high. Our nation is under attack by a relentless, viscous and evil enemy within. We must stand up to them. Do this and we will Take Back America!

It is not incumbent upon Tea party supporters to prove they aren’t racist. It is incumbent upon the socialists/marxists to prove we are racists. They aren’t able to because there is no evidence.

That is the short description of the democrat party...the party that founded the KKK.

You know what, the Tea Party doesn’t need to prove a damn thing.

Why are none of these people (and I’ve read many columns from black tea party patriots) showing up on Fox for interviews? Instead, we’re getting the likes of Al Sharpton and other posers who weren’t there, haven’t a clue, and repeat the same old lies. The “interviewers” are docile and hesitant to call them on these lies in most cases. The record is hardly ever cleared, and so the lies go on.

Some of those aren’t racist and the others are probably infiltrators.

I wonder where they got the signs from. I don’t see racism here—just the truth.

Took the words right out of my mouth, Man50D.

Teaparty racism is a liberal canard, totally unsupported by any facts at all.

This is what the looters do.

I can see the one that says mack daddy and bubba as being contrued as racist. Looks more like it is making fun of the racist tag to me, though. Also, Anytime you use a monkey, people take it as racist even if racism hasn’t anything to do with it. Of course, many of the same signs were used against bush and the media thought it was perfectly okay.

Great article! 5 good points to remember. All I know is that if they’re trying to villify and divide the Tea Party, it’s not working. Glenn Beck, Rush, Hannity, Levin could call for a DC tea party today for Sunday and it’d be packed! I’ve been to every one of them!

Now that would be some good ammo to use, if infact it were true. It would be nicely coupled with the pictures of all the democRATS who voted AGAINST civil rights laws back in the 60’s - main character is Al Gore Sr. and I would be willing to bet Sheets Byrd, too.

Serious question: Why hasn’t that been, at least, a focus of ads from the RNC? Don’t think for a minute that the left wouldn’t do something similar.

This is just another Saul tactic of the libtards as anyone with education and a brain knows that you can not ever prove a NEGATIVE statement. “I.e. When have you stopped beating your wife?” Do not fall for this foolishness PLEASE!!!

Unfortunately in today’s “soundbite society” the NAACP doesn’t have to present ANY evidence that The Tea Party is racist, all they have to do is level the charge and the MSM will make it stick.

It is, in fact, true that the KKK was founded by Democrats, primarily to keep blacks from voting Republican in the South.

Remember, the Republican party had as one of its founding principles the abolition of slavery. Also, the first black members of the House and Senate were southern Republicans.
