President Barack Obama’s former spiritual adviser spoke just a few miles from the White House on Sunday, and politics and controversy weren’t far from what Rev. Jeremiah Wright had to say.
“As we celebrate the foundations of our future, this is not a time to romanticize because we have the first African-descended president in the White House,” Wright said in a fiery sermon that lasted close to an hour. “You see what the tea party is trying to do.”
Speaking at Washington’s Florida Avenue Baptist Church, which marks its 100th anniversary this week, Wright urged parishioners to teach their children true African-American history and not to cede their educations to “our enemies” who teach “his story,” one that “distorts our story, disses our story.”
Children may “only know Oprah and Obama,” he said, so it’s up to elders to teach about Nat Turner, Emmett Till, Rosa Parks, Paul Robeson, Zora Neale Hurston and other black voices.

Yes......it is trying to save America from damnation.
“our enemies” Why so divisive, Rev. Wright? What do you have against my desire to remain free?
Why does this “church” not get audited and lose its tax exempt status for political activity?
Yes, from a small time crook poltician to a crook at the top.
They will kill their own kind, defend the enemies of their kind or anyone who is perceived to be the enemy of the milky white way of life.”
Hussein's mentor certainly does seem to hate white people.
Lighten up Jerry before you have a stroke! All that racism can be hazardous to your health.
Funny, black voices like Allen West, Thomas Sowell, Booker T. Washington, Walter Williams, and Clarence Thomas are not "approved" voices.
The only approved voices are those that preach victimhood, and those like Paul Robeson who would have pledged allegiance to the Hammer and Sickle.
Never forget the white people that made you free, that did not go along
with the others that enslaved you. Never forget the white people that
died in the war, to set you free. Never forget the white people that
marched with you and were killed by the KKK along side of you. Never
forget that Blacks actually formed The Texas Republican Party to get rid of the racist Democrats, Never forget that Democrats passed the Fugitive slave law, Never forget that when Lincoln proposed freeing the slaves 100% of the Republicans voted for it and only 23% of Democrats voted for it, Never forget in 1868 when they passed the 14th amendment EVERY Republican voted for the bill EVERY Democrat voted against it. Never forget in 1872 Congressional hearings, the Democrats admitted to starting The KKK so they could stop the spread of the Republican party because at that time all blacks were Republican.
Never forget between 1870 and 1875 Republicans in congress passed many
civil rights laws for blacks, the the Democrats took over in 1892 and
REPEALED ALL the civil rights laws, which enabled the Democrats to pass
the Jim Crow Laws. It was Roosevelt who turned blacks into Democrats by
giving money, housing, food, clothing and jobs to them. With government
handouts he bought their votes. Now obama is trying to do the same
thing. Why is it, I know more about black history than most blacks?
I noticed MLK is not even on the list.
“I have a dream that my four children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character.”
Paul Robeson, the Stalin butt kisser? Yeah right.
After the sermon, the Wright celestial choir stood up and gyrated left and right with 2 stanzas of “God Damn America!”.
Don’t forget it was democrats who filibustered the Civil Rights Legislation of the 1950s and 1960s...

If anyone needs a reason for the sorry state of
the low class black population in this country
It is from following leaders like wright
Because it’s a liberal church. Only conservative religious institutions get threatened by the IRS.
-
- Remember kids - It is all George W Bush*s fault that the African Green Monkey virus was brought to magically infect American blacks by the CIA by using an evil capitalistic time machine owned by Bain Capital.
- It is impossible for it to have happened any other way.....

This kook is not very black so he has to try harder and act crazier. But it pays the bills and then some. This wacko retired to a white gated community. He has a sunburn ...... He looks 25% African at the most
Amusing that Obama with his zero slave blood ripped off Rev Wright's oratory, demagoguery and style
We’ve had several decades of black Mayors, black Governors, black Representatives, black Assemblymen,Black Senators on the State and Federal levels and at last a black President. With several exceptions, and against all good hopes to the contrary, they have, in the strong majority, proven to be purposefully incompetent or criminal, sometimes both, anti-American, racialist disasters.
No more. Wright speaks the truth. THEY want control. THEY want to control US so THEY can destroy US. No more. They get no more chances! No more!
Give them absolutely everything they want and they will still hate whitey. It’s become very clear to me that they have a secret envy because of the color of their own skin.
