Funny you say this, had someone I know who is in their 20's recently refer to themselves as "a colored person". They weren't black but of another ethic group. I cringed when they said it. I asked my 20 something daughter if that was actually okay to say these days. She said it was something being reclaimed, but you still can't say it as a white person, unless you are British. :-)
You can say it only if you can pronounce the silent "u" (coloured)
The stupidest thing about this is that the WHITE VENDORS ARE BASICALLY PAYING FOR THOSE SPOTS WITH THEIR FEES.
When we see the annual ritual on the news of stores “donating” school supplies to minority children, understand they are just using the money they’ve collected from paying customers to cover the costs.
They definitely need to change their name. The name is racist toward Fleas.
Gud point!
Yep. So much for the Civil Rights movement/acheivements.
Washed down the history rabbit hole, if these Commie clowns get their wishes.
So. In a leftist mind, again: The black man can’t do it on their own, they need “our” help. Then we can pat ourselves on our backs for being such good paternal racists.
What a crock of poo.
now what would happen if the organization declared that only white vendors would get free booths?
Aye.
"Woke" is a wok crock.
LOL — I suppose that depends on the surroundings...
‘POC/colored people’ of the world UNITE to condemn/physically attack white people who do not agree to our calling them all RACISS.
“I do not live in that area but if I did I would avoid that market.”
Do poc’s have to wait in line like ordinary folks or can they go to the head of the line without shame?
“Doesn’t this violate the Civil Rights Act of 1964?...”
******************************************************
The Civil Rights Act of 1964 along with associated “Great Society” legislation was, in essence, the beginning of all this... the beginning of endless “free stuff” and omnipresent preferential treatment. It made much of the black community weak, dependent and incapable of or non desirous of self sufficiency. It also made them angry and instilled in them a sense of entitlement. Lastly, it firmly anchored most of them to the DemocRAT plantation.
‘I suppose that’s the reason for U.S. population replacement.
(only good like world government can come of that but I digress)
Quite the contrary, for me and anyone who believes in the Constitution.
I would go, pay my rental as agreed (and audio taped), and then sell my wares at the flea market.
When the SHTF with other vendors, I would join in a class action law suit with others,
and make more money in the law suit than in selling all my fleas.
The progressives like to use the Law and the courts for 'social justice' and financial gain,
then why shouldn't we do it as well ?
This is right from their playbook(!),
and the tax free funds could be given to FReeRepublic .
Equality was never possible.
Equality was never anyone’s goal.
Everybody wants to rule the world.
2020.
Bingo.
Very good.
