I do believe so-called Black leaders are trying to intimidate Whites into
hating Blacks so they can continue their cause which consists of only financial gain.

Blacks are still selling themselves as slaves and they alone are the slaveholders.

>> RE :”Congressman Jim Clyburn went even further. “The entire English language was created by slaveowners as a means of oppression. You can’t just say that one word is a racist code word or another. The whole language, every single word, letter and apostrophe in it is racist. It’s a fact. If you speak English, you’re a racist.” <<

Please tell me this is an article from The Onion. Nobody can be THAT stupid. Oh wait... I suppose Cynthia McKinney's successor Hank Johnson could have said this and they misprinted it as "Jim Clyborn of South Carolina"

The race cards getting weird... soon the water we drink will be racist. The white man found wells and built most of the water systems. Is drinking water is racist a racist act?

Blacks are going over the edge trying to conjurer up more and more white guilt. Must be a better way for them to fund their organizations...

>> This is really amazing, for lack of a stronger word. It was people speaking Spanish and Portuguese who first introduced enslaved Africans to the New World, and people speaking English who liberated them, and now we are told that English is racist, and Spanish is not. <<

True, and this continued for decades later, look at the movie Amistad (the name of the slave ship in the movie "La Amistad", is ironically Spanish for friendship) about the real life case before the U.S. Supreme Court in the 1830s. Pretty clear what side the spanish-speaking Cubans were on and the English speaking Americans were on. What's more, England abolished slavery in the 1830s, while it continued for decades later in much of Latin America.

And if you really wanted to annoy this Congressman, the Spanish word for black people is "Negros". Now, isn't that considered racist when English speaking people use that word?

Actually African-americans cannot be racist, since they are powerless and dominated by white slave owners and the KKK.

That falls apart when one considers that opinions of widespread white racism are coming from primarily African-American sources, most of whom have more than skin in the game, they profit and maintain their prestigious positions as 'leaders' by keeping their fellows in a victimhood state of mind.

Take away the constant excuses--I knew successful black businessmen when I was a child over 50 years ago--and the only thing stopping the black community from being successful is their own people constantly browbeating them about how someone is 'holding them down' and how they need to 'get back at/over on the man' instead of just going out and working hard to be a success.

Although in real life the words that come out of their mouths are likely to be outrageous, if you read the whole article I think you will conclude that it is satire.

WTF? Does Clyburn have a brain tumor or did he just stop taking his schizophrenia medicine?
