God helps those who help themselves.
I’m white. My mother said we were translucent. Does that count?
Blacks are socially conservative, but financially liberal.
It’s a value system that gives way to liberalism, when push comes to shove.
I’ve told blacks that I’m nore than happy to help them, however I can help them if I am able to help them. All they have to do is ask.
“Blacks are the most conservative group in the country and have been for most of America’s existence.”
whut?
Black Lives Matter?
Does the author realize that ‘conservatives’ don’t live in an all white bubble? Does the author realize that ‘conservatives’ are found in every political party and are of every skin color?
White and asian folks are exceptionally qualified to speak of black issues because they are impartial, unbiased observers and more often than not the victims of, the issues inherent to poor black communities - which, for 100 years, these communities can’t seem to deal with themselves, no matter how much money is thrown at the issues, no matter how many black leaders try to lead and no matter how many success stories of blacks escaping the ‘community culture’ only to thrive.
but they vote dem cuz pubs are racist
the dems said so
IMO, and I have told blacks this, their solution is the church. The church can be for anything we need it to be to raise people up. A good church should be open from 7am until 10pm at night and minister to anybody that needs ministering.
The church is where the good type socialism should happen. Churches can be used to set up scholarships for education. It can be a place where people put up bulletins needing workers for the day. Where a single mother can find cheap places to rent. Whatever you can image, a church can fill that function.
It is not simply a place to go on a Sunday for four hours and then close the doors for the rest of the week.
Conversely, do blacks not realize the optics of rejecting the message of self reliance and independent thinking simply because it is spread by a white person?
There’s a huge difference between country blacks and city blacks, generally speaking.
“ Conservatives must start financially supporting”
We’ve had quite a bit of that…
I don’t think they seem particularly receptive atm.
If blacks want to prosper, they have to escape these urban communities. When the college I worked at was accused in the press of racial prejudice, one of our degree completion students who was black and owned his own construction company explained the difference between him and Los Angeles blacks.
What always seems to be missing in all these discussions of different ethnic groups is that we are all brothers and sisters who bleed the same color.
Too many of “us” seem to tend not to think for ourselves.
The Republic is doomed to failure and will remain so until we stop thinking of each other as hyphenated Americans.
I thought that for years and then heard Bobby Jindel (sp) ex-Gov. of La. say those same words in a speech.
This is a flat out lie. Sure, as in every group of people, some break with the massive leftward tilt of the "black community," but the majority have voted overwhelmingly for Democrats since at least the 1960's. Blacks welcomed the welfare state with open arms. Blacks allowed the Democrats to craft laws that essentially destroyed black families. Blacks enable 100% of the pathologies that afflict their lives and neighborhoods, and always look to the Democrats to shovel money and privileges to them as bribes for their votes. There is nothing conservative about the blacks' slavish devotion to socialist/communist Democrats, and I use the word slavish deliberately.
The author lost me when he praised that con artist Oral Roberts.
What about “What conservatives are too afraid, or not allowed, to say about the Black Community”?
This sounds a little backwards...
Oh. Like the white people involved in Black Lives Matter doing "their part" to "address" racial issues?
