No problem. Blacks should do their Christmas shop lifting from black-owned businesses only.

How many poor, black children get gifts from Toys for Tots? Should they refuse them?

Melina Abdullah should protest Christmas by going to work on the 25th.

That’ll show those white people a thing or two!

I agree and will add, those BLM protesters had no qualms about destroying black-owned businesses so why should normal blacks listen to her anyway.

It should be illegal to employ ANTI-AMERICA and RACIST professors in State Universities.

Affirmative action in university admissions is going to look very different when blacks only attend black universities staffed with black professors. Might work out well. Who knows?

The man proved his ignorance by not knowing of the African Kwanzaa holiday celebrated for at least 17,000 years in he darkest parts of Africa. Various African Kings historically celebrated by selling their captured enemies into slavery thus freeing them from the horrors of African captivity.
