This is a project for all you computer savvy people. Go for it. All I’M going to say is, big deal. I can do better. I knew a black man who was actually a country music star (RIP Charlie Pride)

Genocide. It’s to dehumanize White people. When they get through rewriting history so that every White person who did something good was black, what’s left? White people, at that point, are just subhuman thieves and vermin.

If that is like Barack Obama’s presidential portrait, it was painted in China.

Adolph Hitler was yet another White Devil but Farrakhan and the other NOIds agree with his anger against the Jews.

Pssst. Black parents of famous black musicians didn’t want their kids learning to play Ragtime piano, blues, rock and roll, etc. either.

The Woke Left tell us that it was uptight white folk who went into a panic. All of it was juke joint music before Leiber and Stohler dumbed it down with Charlie Brown he is a clown dooot dooot doo doot doo doot doo dooo for school kids and soda shops.

Was it rock and roll or was it jump blues? Was it R&B?

What IS the first rock and roll song?

And if you look at artists like Little Richard there are quite a few past date covers in his songbook (Baby Face, Keep A Knockin’,...).

A number of “white” Americans and Europeans have some African ancestry, but grow up in a white Western society. Perhaps Beethoven, the Dumas father and son were examples; Hamilton, born in the Caribbean, was accused of having black ancestors by political enemies. By some miraculous process female house slaves in America became lighter each generation until they were accepted as family members (which genetically they were). My maternal landless great grandfather (primogeniture law) married a “white lady” with some African ancestry. Her dowry included about 400 acres, a large house, and six slaves; one of whom was her close companion and perhaps her half sister. My mother said, “Many old southern families have a touch of the tarbrush.”

I recently read that Hollywierd exces have signed up to make all productions 25% Black cast members. This is to start next year and progress. This means we’ll see a lot more of this race switching.

For the 96th Oscars (2024), a film must meet TWO out of FOUR of the following standards to be deemed eligible:

STANDARD A: ON-SCREEN REPRESENTATION, THEMES AND NARRATIVES
To achieve Standard A, the film must meet ONE of the following criteria:

A1. Lead or significant supporting actors

At least one of the lead actors or significant supporting actors is from an underrepresented racial or ethnic group.
• Asian
• Hispanic/Latinx
• Black/African American
• Indigenous/Native American/Alaskan Native
• Middle Eastern/North African
• Native Hawaiian or other Pacific Islander
• Other underrepresented race or ethnicity

A2. General ensemble cast

At least 30% of all actors in secondary and more minor roles are from at least two of the following underrepresented groups:
• Women
• Racial or ethnic group
• LGBTQ+
• People with cognitive or physical disabilities, or who are deaf or hard of hearing

" Perhaps Beethoven,"

Wrong.

You are clueless with regard to Beethoven.
