Africanization is the greatest challenge facing America

Africans must not prevail and lower all that is American to Zimbabwe level

Cultural genocide - when they say white supremacist translate that to white culture.

To the statue pullers: What was the net effect of your actions? Have you achieved utopia yet? Did I miss the big campfire and singing of kum ba yah? Is anyone better off?

I realize asking critical questions and looking for empirical evidence is apparently racist, but history is important.

“at least 160 public Confederate symbols taken down or moved from public spaces in 2020, according to a new count the Southern Poverty Law Center”

Yeah, that’s going to help things. Only black lives matter and Antifa are burning down the country and the commies are worried about symbols of a part of the country who wanted to separate themselves 160 years ago.

Any hope of getting the SPLC designated an organized crime group?

[Oldeconomybuyer]

No problem, it was a great image.

***but many states abolished it many years earlier.***

Always remember, FIVE STATES remained in the Union as slave states as was DC at the time.

Upon the surrender of South, some of those states were still SLAVE STATES and did not abolish slavery until the 13th Amendment was ratified, eight months after the war ended.

If they want to destroy all the symbols of the Confederacy does that mean that slavery didn’t exist or am I misunderstanding something?

[gandalftb]

Yup, making any progress here?:

It’s Democrats trying to erase their disgraceful past. The Confederacy was created by Southern Democrats.

[jmacusa]

There you go again. States right to the Confederacy meant the right own slaves.

[Jewbacca]

Maybe so.

I think it it more they desire to erase Western Civilization/Europeans/Judeo-Christian values.

So they start with a flaw, which was slavery and the Confederacy.
