FORMER NFL PLAYER BURGESS OWENS CLAIMS SOCIALISTS’ ANTI-WHITE AGENDA IS HURTING BLACK COMMUNITIES
Daily Caller News ^ | 01/04/2019 | Nick Givas

Posted on 01/04/2019 10:01:54 AM PST by george76

Former NFL player Burgess Owens said socialism and Marxism are pushing an “anti-white” and “anti-American” agenda that’s hurting the black community.

Burgess was discussing the NFL’s ratings boost as national anthem protests begin to fade and said America is fighting for its soul.

...

“The biggest takeaway from the last two years — we are in the fight for the heart and soul of our nation,” Burgess said Friday on “Fox & Friends.” “We are fighting for our American, Judeo-Christian values and we’re fighting against a very evil force of socialism and Marxism that destroy everything they come close to. The NFL has been changed forever and people don’t realize this. But it used to be a place where we come together, no matter what our political persuasion was, and there was unity because we had God, country and family.”

“The Marxists and socialists made that so that we have these young people coming out of these environments — they’re anti-American, they’re anti-white, they’re anti-capitalist — and that is the message that now is going around the world and throughout our communities — that this is a place that’s not for black Americans,” ..

Burgess claimed the far-left ideology is “evil” and seeks to destroy people’s “belief in God.”

...

the impact of these socialists. Our greatest enemy is not white supremacists — it’s black elitists,” Burgess argued. “Those who live the American dream, who get a job for $100,000 a year as politicians and come out as multimillionaires, because what they do is they betray their own base. The people that believe in them, they give them up so they can get their ideology in place.”

The overt and unapologetic promotion of racial tribalism has become the defining hallmark of the black Left in contemporary America. Rooted in the absurd notion that black people, by definition, cannot be racists because they lack political “power,” black racism today parades righteously and ostentatiously under the protective, all-encompassing banner of “social justice.” And because the leftists who thoroughly dominate America’s educational establishment and mass media have largely embraced and advanced this very same narrative of perpetual black victimhood and white transgression, black racists have become emboldened as never before to trumpet endless litanies of manufactured racial grievances. ... they feel free to thunder with absolute impunity things that would permanently destroy the career and reputation of any white person who dared to even whisper similar words. This is how people come to hate each other. This is how nations get torn apart. This is how civilizations die.- John Perazzo

“The worst enemy that the Negro have is this white man that runs around here drooling at the mouth professing to love Negros and calling himself a liberal, and it is following these white liberals that has perpetuated problems that Negros have. If the Negro wasn’t taken, tricked or deceived by the white liberal, then Negros would get together and solve our own problems. I only cite these things to show you that in America, the history of the white liberal has been nothing but a series of trickery designed to make Negros think that the white liberal was going to solve our problems. Our problems will never be solved by the white man.”

I seem to remember someone criticizing Americans for “clinging to their guns and Bibles”. That’s about the time I turned my life over to Christ and began to put together my weapons and ammo...........so thanks for that.

Clarence Burgess Owens (born August 2, 1951 in Columbus, Ohio) is a retired safety who played ten seasons in the National Football League for the New York Jets and the Oakland Raiders. He graduated from Rickards High School in Tallahassee, Florida in 1969,[1] and then attended the University of Miami, where he was a 1st-Team All-American defensive back, Most Valuable Defensive Player of the North–South All Star Game, and MVP of the Coaches All-American Game. He was inducted into the University of Miami Sports Hall Of Fame in 1980, and its Orange Bowl “Ring of Honor” in 1999...

I don’t recall him, but it was some time ago.

Marxists run our Dept. of Education and our local school districts!

No wonder black and other urban minorities come away despising the very country in which they live and their only “heros & mentors” are mostly drug dealers, gangbangers, functional illerates and criminals!

IMO the most certain way of ensuring that somebody turns out to be a racist is to assure him that it is impossible for him to be a racist.

The only things keeping blacks out of upscale neighborhoods are choice and economics. If they can afford it, they can live anywhere; the law says so. Many choose mixed or majority black locations due to discomfort about being too close to too many of those different from them. The same reason few whites choose majority black sections.

I am fortunate in that most of the blacks with whom I am acquainted are not much different than me...working, family people. I am aware that it is not like that everywhere.

“The worst enemy that the Negro have is this white man that runs around here drooling at the mouth professing to love Negros and calling himself a liberal..."

And the next worst was described by a great American over 100 years ago:

There is another class of coloured people who make a business of keeping the troubles, the wrongs, and the hardships of the Negro race before the public. Having learned that they are able to make a living out of their troubles, they have grown into the settled habit of advertising their wrongs — partly because they want sympathy and partly because it pays. Some of these people do not want the Negro to lose his grievances, because they do not want to lose their jobs. -- Booker T. Washington

As blacks gain ascendancy in society through affirmative action and other government programs, the racism is becoming more and more ubiquitous. In the meantime for those yet to share in “the power” they will have to be satisfied with exercising plain bigotry.

He absolutely gets it and he’s on the right side of the fight. Kudos to him.
