This is their pledge to the BLACK flag, not American flag, but BLACK flag, said by children of one Oklahoma City innercity school district, the Millwood School District.
Think I am kidding? Here is their webpage: http://www.millwood.k12.ok.us/MPS%20Students.htm
Notice it calls for honor to the Black flag, not the US flag. It also calls for separation of Black people onto their own land, given to them by the US. In addition, it calls for students to have Black love, Black freedom, and Black determination. Quite different from "... liberty and justice for ALL."
Your tax dollars are paying for this!!!! No wonder so many innercity kids can't read or write when this is what our educational dollars are being spent on!
Do you have his email address so I can send him some good background stuff about this topic?
Did she read the pledge..
How about this!
We pledge allegiance of the red, white and blue
Our flag, the symbol of our eternal struggle
and to the land we must obtain.
One nation of White people,
with one God for us all,
Totally united in the struggle for White Love,
White Freedom, and White determination.
Would this version be a problem on their website? What about a School with 99% White kids? Then it would be ok? Racism is racism no matter the color.
On schools, many blacks return to roots

DETROIT - In learning their ABCs and in studying about geography, faraway flood plains, and the saints and sinners of history, students at the Aisha Shule-W.E.B. DuBois Preparatory Academy on the gritty northwest side of this city march to a different drummer.
Actually, the drums are African, and they're being slapped furiously just now to bring a school morning to order. The beats are accompanied by both African chants and English verse:
''We will live as models to provide new direction for our people.'' It sounds like a moral crusade. ''We will be free and self-determining.'' The strong voices lift the tiny voices up. ''We are an African people.''
They are standing in the center of the one-floor school and reciting one of their daily self-empowering messages as morning dark lifts from the windows. ''Together, we will win.''
In one of the more striking phenomenons in US education, African-centered secondary schools - also called Afrocentric schools - are experiencing stunning growth, testing America's idea of integrated schooling and catching some officials and educators by surprise.
According to Molefi Asante, who is chairman of the African-American Studies Program at Temple University and has trained many of the educators involved in the movement, there are about 400 African-centered schools in the United States. In the past five years alone, he says, the schools have grown by 30 percent.

Quotes from body of article:
"Nowhere have the black schools taken hold as strongly as here in Detroit, where 12 of the public schools are now African-centered..."
"When the school day nears an end, there is a rustle of books, then the recitation of the end-of-day anthem: ''We pledge to think black, act black, buy black, pray black, love black and live black. We pledge to do black things today to assure us of a black tomorrow.''..."
_____________________________
Would it be ok for the kids in my local school to end the day with ''We pledge to think WHITE, act white, buy white, pray white, love white and live white. We pledge to do white things today to assure us of a white tomorrow.''..."
No wonder we have a race issue in this country. Nobody want to tell the truth. Until we deal with the WHOLE issue (including Black racism) we will never solve anything. Nobody would stand for a School to say or sponsor these things if they were using the word White. Equality, right.
Trouble is, well, the libidiots will not be happy till we're resembling Bosnia. Not for me and any kids I might have..no sir!
You see this? Getting rid of G.Washington - Replace with a Black man.
The whole "Think black, act black, etc." thing came from none other than Ron Everett (aka. Maulana Karenga) the self-proclaimed marxist founder of Kwanzaa. It came from the book he called "The Quotable Karenga" that he had all of the members of his US gang read and follow. Remember, the US gang is the ones that in 1969 alone gunned down and killed 4 members of the rival Black Panthers - 2 of which were murdered in a hallway in a UCLA student union building. And one of Karenga's thugs is still a fugitive today on California's 10 Most Wanted List.
The exact quote is:
"The sevenfold path of blackness is think black, talk black, act black, create black, buy black, vote black, and live black"It is truly disturbing that the words and ideas of a violent gangleader like Karenga would be recited every day in school. But then again, Karenga's invented holiday - Kwanzaa - is celebrated in many schools too. And don't get me going about the evils of Kwanzaa or I'll fill up this thread.
WE PLEDGE ALLEGIANCE TO THE RED, BLACK, AND GREEN, OUR FLAG, THE SYMBOL OF OUR ETERNAL STRUGGLE, AND TO THE LAND WE MUST OBTAIN; ONE NATION OF BLACK PEOPLE, WITH ONE GOD OF US ALL, TOTALLY UNITED IN THE STRUGGLE, FOR BLACK LOVE, BLACK FREEDOM, AND BLACK SELF-DETERMINATION.
Not a problem. That's the flag of Biafra.
Send them there. One-way tickets for all.
I remember they had a song called White Minority which sounded like a skinhead rant, although it was sung by a Chicano, Dez Cadena.
If you look into the site under "Archives" they've got some more info concerning this matter. This Marcus Garvey person's name is again in here. There's also a pledge of allegiance that bears a similarity to the pledge in the posted article.
Here is the contact info for the governor of Oklahoma:

There's a nice PC photo at the bottom of the page of the Gov Keating visiting a mosque. The BS just keeps getting deeper.
This is an absolute outrage!
I know this must in err. Black people cannot be racist or prejudice. Thought I would let you know,so , you could correct your mistake. LOL Makes one want to give them Mississippi, Louisiana, Arkansas, and Alabama. Then put a fence up around it,so , they can't escape.
