The woke war on the past reaches historic proportions.
After canceling most people who lived in the last two centuries for not being sufficiently accepting of the current dogma, woke academia has turned its attention to the distant past.
After accusing Isaac Newton and Robert Burns of being complicit in slavery, the British woke war on the past has gone bigger. Edinburgh University had already renamed David Hume Tower after Black Lives Matter activists accused the philosopher, born in 1711, of racism. The Sir Francis Drake Primary School had to change its name and William Gladstone is next.
But even when you get rid of every famous Englishman, Scotsman, Irishman and Welshman, there’s no escaping the fact that it’s just a bunch of white people. As Mary Rambaran-Olm, an Afro-Indo Caribbean academic who decided to study medieval English literature, complained, the “field has traditionally been represented by white people and unsurprisingly still attracts mostly white students due to the field’s inherent whiteness.”
There are no complaints that black studies is too black, attracts black students and is represented by black people due to the field’s inherent blackness, but you can’t have the study of Irishness get too Irish, Welshness get too Welsh or England get too English.
The English, after being accused of colonizing the world, stand charged with colonizing the study of medieval England by the woke academics who want to ‘decolonise it’. Much like the decolonization of other parts of the world, the academic euphemism for ethnic cleansing, means getting rid of all the English. Or at least all the ones with the skin tone common on the isles.

They used to EXPORT 92% of their production to surrounding countries.
NOW—THEY IMPORT 93% of everything they use.
Another lesson is on tonight!
I think South Africa will surpass Zimbabwe in the depth of degradation.
Hmm, who captured and sold Africans to slave traders? And they’re still selling their fellow men, women and children. Slavery is alive and well in Africa.
At every point in history, there was slavery. Every race, religion and culture has been enslaved at some point in history.
Midieval Sub-Saharan Africa was too black. Idiotic article deserves an idiotic response.
I repeat—look around your house—and then research each item.
The numbers will speak for themselves.
“Medieval England Was Too White”
Uh oh... sounds like reparations are in order.
Woke Wars
Diversity does not appear to be our greatest strength. It does,however, provide steady employment for prison guards and police.
Are White Men Gods? (II): Getting the Facts Straight

Jokic isn't white. He's European. The last white superstar was Larry Bird. The last good player was John Stockton. Steve Nash didn't count because he's Canadian.
That denial runs deep. They are completely invested in the “THE PARTYS SWITCHED!!1!” narrative. Which is a complete lie.
See the column I linked a few posts above.
Monkeys at work.
Poor, uneducated fools can’t complete the circle
That’s why they are Marxist tools
Now that Mugabe is taking a dirt nap and Zimbabwe has hit bottom and is starting to crawl back, possibly so. Maybe even probably so.
Nothing compared to where we may drag the world
Show me the universities of Africa
Show me their functioning economies
Show me their achievents and progress to add to modern man
You can’t.
Why?
What they did for thousands of years failed them
Their political history never got past their chiefs in the tribes.
Tribalism still is the backbone in Africa today.
Take a look at Zimbabwe and now south Africa... Both regressing right to the bush again.
That’s what they want for modern man.
Flippin monkeys, can’t complete the circle.
If some of these asses were to read a few history books, they’d be protecting American values.
Instead they had to learn cultural marxism grievances.
These asses need to understand a Lil Christian history starting with the the magna carta, then a later spinoff patent law, then the development of the sciences due to the needs of the inventors, and how these were the building blocks for the industrial revolution.
Something not taught in the American ciriculum.
Thus the failures in knowledge
The G7 are responsible for everything you see in your house.
Beg to differ a bit, plenty of innovations by the like of George Washington Carver and others, I would never discount them.

I don’t discount them at all. There exceptions to every rule and that’s just what they are.......... “exceptions”
