I wasn’t aware of that. But it’s still a beautiful town...

In time minorities who don’t already know and who are not racists/tribalists will catch on to the Left’s race hate political game. We need to teach new comers about freedom and wealth creation and the failures of socialsm/fascism/marxism in every venue we can.
It starts to break down a reliable voting block for the DemonRats. Just as Sara! helped bring more women over. Blacks need to get the conservative message—so, whatever it takes is good for the country.
Gary Franks was the member from CT. Black Dem Congressman Bill Clay, Sr. blasted him as a “foot shufflin’, head scratchin’, Amos n’Andy Negro.” That’s the kind of treatment Black Republicans get for leaving the plantation.

Another great site on the subject. There are a lot of black conservatives out there. God Bless them!
When I was in the Philippines, I was quite surprised to see their elementary schools teaching about some great self-made men in American History. Among them ... George Washington, Abraham Lincoln and .... ( I was quite surprised to see this man’s name )... Booker T. Washington!
Do our schools ever teach the story of Booker T. Washington anymore? Just wonder...
MLK seems to be the only one who has been held up with esteem who was not so much of an angry, bitter reactionary as he was more of an idealist and uniter. I think he truly cared about his people, more than he cared about fame and becoming rich by playing the "race" card. I don't feel he ued the people of the black race in an attempt to just gain power and control over them. I would have loved to have had a discussion with him. I think of him as an honorable man who struggled to fix things right and lead by a good example.
