Perhaps I’ll poke around for connections when I have time, but something you or others might also wonder about. My first thought when seeing separitist (black) connected to Georgia was Muhammad Farms in Bronwood, Georgia. Originally around 5,000 acres owned by the Nation of Islam, now around a third that size. But established as a model for black separatism. Any connections? Don’t know.
The slave trade was much older than any of the Founding Fathers and the USA. It was (and still is) a worldwide practice.
“In one way I agree with him. Black people and families should pull together just like Jewish, Chinese, Vietnamese, Korean, etc families have in America. Part of why blacks haven’t done as well as these other groups is that they haven’t pulled together economically like other groups have. The same is true to lesser extent with Latinos.”
You are proposing black separatism. Other groups have been successful because of hard work, risk taking, and clean living. They have not succeeded because of separatism. These groups have some sense of community but they generally do not seek to isolate themselves from others. Beyond the first generation, the sense of community has broken down. It is family discipline that has made these groups successful, not group economic separatism.
This is an aspect of American society that never sees the light of day because “only whites can be racist”. And most Americans are scared to death of criticizing black people.
This silliness from the most dependent of constituencies is just sad, and gives some insight into how much it rankles them that at the end of the day, they’re still lining up for “whitey” to feed, clothe, and house them.
Dan Riehl is one of the best conservative bloggers. We need to make sure his articles are circulated as widely as possible. I hope freepers will make a point of visiting his blog at www.riehlworldview.com, commenting, and helping him in his research and investigative work.
In the late 60’s the full weight of the Federal Government came down on our heads and destroyed black and white families:
The Great Society was a set of domestic programs proposed or enacted in the United States on the initiative of President Lyndon B. Johnson. Two main goals of the Great Society social reforms were the elimination of poverty and racial injustice.
The centerpiece of the War on Poverty was the Economic Opportunity Act of 1964, which created an Office of Economic Opportunity (OEO) to oversee a variety of community-based antipoverty programs.
Job Corps, Neighborhood Youth Corps, Volunteers in Service to America (VISTA), Model Cities Program, Upward Bound
The Elementary and Secondary Education Act of 1965. It ended a long-standing political taboo by providing significant federal aid to public education/
The Higher Education Act of 1965 increased federal money given to universities, created scholarships and low-interest loans for students, and established a national Teacher Corps to provide teachers to poverty-stricken areas of the United States. The Act also began a transition from federally funded institutional assistance to individual student aid.
The Social Security Act of 1965 authorized Medicare and provided federal funding for many of the medical costs of older Americans.
In 1966 welfare recipients of all ages received medical care through the Medicaid program.
In September 1965, Johnson signed the National Foundation on the Arts and Humanities Act into law, creating both the National Endowment for the Arts and National Endowment for the Humanities as separate, independent agencies. Lobbying for federally funded arts and humanities support began during the Kennedy Administration.
No, I’m not proposing separatism at all.

RE: Breitbart. He was sent a segment of a tape that was property of NAACP. Playing it made him look bad. He knows who sent him that tape....As far as I see it, it’s his ace up his sleeve. Expect the other shoe to fall when he decides it will fall.
I thought she was a racially tolerant. That's what the press told me :)
Race-based Marxism
This story should be all over. I wake up this morning and check WND and it doesn’t even mention it. Yesterday, I saw this on my Rush 24/7 and this blew me away. Rush is right again. This why the media wanted to drop this story so fast. I hope Fox News covers this. What makes me sick is that so called “Right” pundits are all going ga-ga over Shirley saying how truly beautiful her full speech was. Anne Coulter said this and I almost barfed.
Come on, kristinn. You know affiliation, marriage or lifelong acquaintance has nothing to do with the way people view anything.
Obama isn’t a racist because he sat in a pew for twenty years listening to a racist spout his vile, then wrote a fawning book that was a tribute to him. But he didn’t hear anything during those years he listened to the man who baptized his children, and CERTAINLY didn’t subscribe to it. And we know Obama isn’t an anti-American Marxist because he is good friends with Bill Ayers, and has been since he came on the political scene back in the Nineties.
Likewise, Sherrod cannot be a racist, even though she is married to one and sits across the breakfast and dinner table from him. I am certain they never have had any political discussions ever, and if this is a sample of what he says in public, we can only imagine what he says in private. But she disavows all of that, and we take her at her word.

Obama and the liberals conflate all of history into a cliche caricature image of the evil white people as the exploiters of the good non-white people, and they think that ''good and fair economics'' therefore is to redistribute/restore all the wealth and power to the good non-white people, by taking it from the evil white people, who stole it by exploiting the good non-white people, to whom it rightfully belongs. That is their real agenda. It's all ''simplistic oversimplifications''---caricatures.They think in terms of these cliche images, which is a type of ''pragnanz disorder'', in Gestalt-Psychology terms. It's very understandable, when you know about these pragnanz disorders, and how they are indelibly programmed into young people. It's not a rational process. They can't begin to understand the most basic economics, because they think in terms of these cliche images and caricatures, and this blocks and short-circuits any kind of rational data-processing or tabula-rasa clean-slate objective thinking---similar to the dogmatic Muslim's dogmatism that ''Allah wants us all to be Muslims and to rule the world through Shariah law''. All they think of is ''dogmatic dogma'': ''take the wealth and power from the bad white people, and give it to the good non-white people,'' and they think this explains how the world works. This is classic dogmatic indoctrination, like the Manchurian candidate's, or the ''Clockwork Orange''---''beyond freedom and dignity''.
,They learn this crap through ''pairing''. They learn it ''at their mother's knee'', in their mother's lap, while getting warmth, love, and food from her. It's not a rational process. It's a type of ''systematic desensitization'' and ''stimulus generalization''. It is stealthily subliminally ''paired'' with everything good: mother love, warmth, safety, nourishment, pleasure, God, ''order'', and so on, just like Pavlov ''paired'' everything good, in the form of delicious red meat, with the ringing of the buzzer, and the dogs never realized that ''living for the buzzer'' was a product of pairing and stimulus generalization, and a totally wrong and arbitrary ideal and dogma to be dedicating one's life to---just like the (Frank-Davis-programmed) Anointed one, and the liberals, with their living of life for their own arbitrary Pavlovian buzzers and buzzer words, such as ''social justice'' and ''spread the wealth'' and ''the fairness doctrine'' and ''soak the rich'' and ''off whitey'' and ''you got to kill some crackers and they babies, to get justice'', and ''universal healthcare'', and so on, with these meaningless nonsense terms, with nothing but repetition of these cliches, in a cliche mentality, with never anything deeper or of any substance in their dogmatic cliche superficial thinking.,
They don't even know that they are thinking in cliches and simplistic oversimplifications. They are too well indoctrinated. As Fontane said: ''The person who does not know that he or she is wearing a mask is wearing it most perfectly.'' Similarly for the person who does not know that his or her thinking is just memorized cliches: That person is thereby most perfectly blocked from getting any insight into how their thinking is cliches---and therefore WRONG. They can never make progress in their thinking. And it's a very contagious disease, spreading rapidly as an epidemic through our country, because, like Islam, it spreads by force, through rigidity of dogma, refusal to back down, constant ratcheting-up in bringing believers into the fold, with absolutes---never wavering, in complete self-confidence, and constant pressure, all from ''true believers'' with very simplistic and easy-to-understand epigrammatic shibboleths and oversimplifications that weak-minded and cliche-indoctrinated people can faux understand, and by which they can make themselves feel good, through unconscious pairing/associating, in their uni-dimensional minds, with all things good and holy, which they learned ''at their mother's knee''---erroneously. This disease is very contagious, all over the world. As Wittgenstein said, the world is suffering very ''systemically'' from its severe collective mental illness, comprised mostly of ''imprecision in language''.
Do you have his name?
I do, but I don’t want to publish it for fear of retribution towards him now or in the future. He follows FR, so if he wants to publish his name, that’s up to him.
Interesting.
The Journo-listas have decided to “MOVE_ON” from the Shirley Shabazz Sharpton Sherrod story.
“Educated Black America”? Have you heard them speak? She invents words on the fly. If that is educated then we are in worse shape than I thought.
