On Melissa Harris-Perry's show this weekend, the host resoundingly approved when a guy who said that his mission in life is to "get white people to talk about whiteness" suggested that baristas at Starbucks should write “White supremacy has been the organizing principle of America since it was founded” on customers' coffee cups. - See more at:

Well, I Have A Dream wasn’t original with M L King either...
Did White supremacy exist because of actual superiority? (Admitting that we have now degenerated so far so as to lose our edge.)
“#StarbucksCoffeeTastesLikeBurntCrap”
B U M P !!
I’m sure that will do wonders for the tips....
Get it with white chocolate......
All of that is true. In fact, the 3/5 compromise built into the Constitution may have made the Civil War inevitable. And while the problem of race relations has been an open sore in our country, it still remains that essential core of our country, and all of western civilization, was built by white people. By that, I mean:
Railroads, Steamships, Automobiles, Aircraft
Telegraph, Telephone, Satellites, Cellular phones
Computers, Television, Video Recordings, digital data storage
Coal, Oil, Natural gas and nuclear power
Breech-loading firearms, repeating firearms, machine guns, armored fighting vehicles, quick-firing artillery, ballistic missiles, thermonuclear weapons....
Well, if white supremecy equals the following, then count me in:
-Private property rights
-Equality under the law
-God given rights that cannot be usurpred by man
-individual liberty and responsiblity
Of course, all of their “nations of color” do not live by these principles and so maybe they can say that these are uniquely white rule qualities.
They just have to chose, do they want to live in a country where people prosper, or a country where people live in squalor while they swat flies away from their faces...
Granted there are many who greatly contribute to our republic BUT that is VERY overshadowed by the great many more who do and have done damage to that same republic. The ones that have contributed could have immigrated into the country at a later time if they wished.
Falsifying history does nobody any favors, to be sure.
Still the problem isn’t one of skin, but of sin. Modern colored immigrants from Africa laugh at the idea of racist woes in America.
They sharpie on all the cups
Again, references to “white supremacy” and “white privilege” are simply the new antisemitism.
The group that refuses to adhere to the value system that makes another group prosperous
finds a way to justify both their envy and their refusal to adopt higher cultural standards.
And what a great country it was. Was being the key word.
One of the sadder failures to keep promises was the 40 acres and a mule. I never quite understood what went wrong there. Too little resources? Political backlash? America might have gotten a very robust, and God fearing, society of “black rednecks” had it followed through with that one.
That said, we cannot go back to the past. We have to look to the future, and it has to have evangelism in it if we want the results to be godly.
Yet somehow, every other race wants to live here.
It’s a problem of skin only perpetuated by those with an interest in perpetuating it.
Even modern immigrants from Africa itself.
I want respect,but I don’t want to earn it!
