"I am not one of your locally home grown house negroes. I don’t shuffle, I don’t tap dance, and I don’t take out the garbage… Some of the citizens in Martinsville need to wake up because I am black. I am also a voice for black people and we are tired, we are fed up and we are not taking it anymore” said Sharon Brooks Hodge, a member of Martinsville City Council, speaking to a Martinsville television reporter.

Oh no. I wonder if this is the first case in history where the “oppressed” actively seek to live near, work near, and never allow their “oppressors” to escape their presence. Puts a whole different spin on who is actually being “oppressed” here, when the presumed “oppressed” follow their “oppressors” like parasites seeking a host.

“Some Teacher should have stopped what what was done and explained how it could be perceived by some as offensive.”

Oh...one of the councilmen did. So in another interview later she called him a “good ole boy” and accused HIM of being rude and interrupting her. She’s a real piece of.....ummm...work.

In my opinion, she doesn’t have a mind to waste.

I think the kids learned a great lesson! You’ll never, ever be able to satisfy and make a black racist happy.

Good point. I forgot about the sharks (’I got your great, great, great, great, great, grandpappy, and now I’m going to get you!’). Probably friggin’ sharks with laser beams attached to their heads too.

I have to wonder if she did mean to hurt race relations.

It looks that way, but she probably is so "brain-washed" to see racism in everything, she just reacted automatically to anything black. There is something askew in the perception of black among the dark skinned people. Sometimes I wonder if it was wise of them to choose "black" as the preferred term of address. Black is a word and a color that is unavoidable as it is universally used as the opposite of white. Maybe the race should have kept the spanish term "negro". They would not so automatically react to it. My southern forebears used the term "darkies". To me it seemed a term of endearment, because I loved them. Lately.......not so much.

“voice for black people and we are tired, we are fed up and we are not taking it anymore”

As those being “taken from” we are happy to hear it.
Da Ho must mean holder’s ppl are going to actually go to work??? If they ain’t “taking it” anymo, must be work or starve. Fat chance, most likely mad cause she didn’t get in on Pigford.

Those poor children who were so proud of their quilt. One of them started crying as she lectured them.

Yes, she has a Christian Black Family Preservation Organization. According to a poster at another site she counsels black couples on how to keep their marriages together!

BTW - one of the posters had a really funny suggestion:

“Here’s what we do; inodate her office with post cards / letters witha black stick figure in the corner. Write something like

” Dear Councilwoman Brooks-Hodges. The black figure on the quilt depicted a person in the dark–of which you have shown yourself to be. The students displayed a greater maturity than you are apparently capable of achieving. Not only should you be ashamed of your behavior, but you should consider resigning due to your hypersensativity thin skin.”
just a thought

“Screw her, screw her racism and feigned insult. Water off a ducks back now, racist. Go bark it up another tree.”

Just another piece of evidence that we should have picked our own cotton!

This scumbag Hodge is a bully. Congratulations to this typical Sharpton-style Democrat for abusing a bunch of children to advance her political career. Meet the next Democrat senator.

About three seconds of his talking makes me just check out. He and Bernice Johnson are absolute disgraces to humanity.

Oh dear....did she say something she didn’t mean to say? Like the kid whose 3 inch tall black figure wasn’t meant to offend?!

Just as Hodges is not letting the kid have a break neither should SHE get a break and do as WE THINK SHE MEANT to say.

No more free money, food....nothing free. THAT IS HOW I CHOOSE TO TAKE IT. I’m offended by her taking and taking and her supporters taking and taking and so glad they are going to stop....right?

If they would have left off some black outline of a person she’d be offended. Her attitude is she’s mad at G-d for making her black and it goes downhill from there.
