The Biden administration is handing out flyers to our Border Patrol agents which are labeled as ‘Black Resistance’ and covered in terms like ‘black power’ and ‘Black Lives Matter.’ This is a perfect example of the priorities of the Biden admin. They care more about spreading their ‘woke’ progressive talking points than they do about protecting our southern border. The Washington Free Beacon reports: Biden Admin Distributes ‘Black Resistance’ Flyers to Border Agents The Biden administration distributed “Black Resistance” flyers to U.S. Border Patrol agents that celebrated the Black Lives Matter movement and anti-American activist Colin Kaepernick, causing a stir...

Every February, when Black History Month comes around, like clockwork, a small percentage of people (you know which ones) take umbrage that Black people get a month to celebrate their history, and there is no White History Month to counterbalance it. I used to argue that white history is taught year-round and thus there is no need to dedicate a month to focus on it. But recently, my views have shifted. I've come to a realization: Perhaps we do need a white history month—if not two or three. Truth is, a lot of white history has been left out of...

On Wednesday night, in a unanimous vote, the city of Miramar denounced DeSantis' ban on the advanced placement course on African American studies for high school students.

For more than 25 years, Dr. Maria Rosario Jackson’s work has focused on understanding and elevating arts, culture, and design as critical elements of healthy communities.

After confirmation by the U.S. Senate in December 2021, Dr. Jackson became the 13th chair of the National Endowment for the Arts in January 2022. With this historic appointment, Dr. Jackson is the nation’s first NEA chair to be an African American and...

President Joe Biden... is now reviving former President Barack Obama’s idea of adding yet one more racial category to our Balkanized nation and effectively turning Hispanics into a race, not an ethnicity. In a document from the Office of Management and Budget, published on Jan. 27 in the Federal Register, a working group of the U.S. Census Bureau proposes to create a category for people who can trace their origin to Middle East or North African (to be called MENA). Secondly, it proposes to collapse the current two questions on ethnicity and race into one.... The reason two questions have...

The Washington Post counted 1,096 people in the U.S. who were shot and killed by police in 2022.In previous years, about as many people - around 1,000 annually - have died this way. As Statista's Katharina Buchholz shows in the infographic below, most of those killed by police were male and armed...You will find more infographics at StatistaWhile the race of more than a third of those killed by police in 2022 is not known, 389 of the deceased were white, while 224 were Black.

As you might have noticed, it has become de rigueur to regard whiteness as a very bad thing. In a USA Today article "America's overdue reckoning with white supremacy: 'We have allowed evil to flourish" the lily white liberal Kirsten Powers goes to great efforts in an attempt to purge herself of her original sin. There is nothing more insufferable than the self-righteous virtue signaling white liberal. The article makes a reference to George Floyd. Then we have an even more overt message- whiteness itself is evil. Kesha Hamilton is a Michigan school board member. Hamilton made a statement to...

,OMB says federal workers of Middle Eastern or North African descent don't have the 'same lived experience' as White people. The Biden administration is proposing a change to the way it collects data on federal workers that would allow employees to identify themselves as of Middle Eastern or North African descent, instead of identifying themselves as "White." The Office of Management and Budget (OMB) on Thursday announced a series of proposed changes to the race/ethnicity data that it has kept since 1977. The OMB said changes are warranted because people’s preferences relating to how they identify themselves have changed. The...

Saying that an African American studies course "lacks educational value," Gov. Ron DeSantis' administration is defending its rejection of the curriculum.... Black lawmakers, religious leaders and local elected officials are organizing events to speak out after the state Department of Education's Office of Articulation.... "We believe in teaching kids facts and how to think, but we don't believe they should have an agenda imposed on them. When you try to use [black] history to shoehorn in queer theory, you are clearly trying to use that for political purposes," DeSantis said. ..."Intersectionality is foundational to CRT (critical race theory), and ranks...

The College Board...has launched a pilot version of an AP African-American Studies (APAAS) course, to great fanfare in the mainstream press..... On January 12...Florida governor Ron DeSantis wrote a letter to the College Board informing it that Florida was rejecting its request for state approval of APAAS. The letter, from the Florida Department of Education’s Office of Articulation, goes on to state that, “as presented, the content of this course is inexplicably contrary to Florida law and significantly lacks educational value.” At the same time, the letter notes that “in the future, should College Board be willing to come back...

The day will be filled with guest speakers and panelists, networking opportunities, and more!” The event takes place on February 2...

"The campaign to force the comingling of blacks and whites hasn’t worked, isn’t working, shows no sign that it will work, has become an industry, and enjoys the support of few. Usually the proselytizing for what seems unwanted togetherness is intense and swathed in righteousness. It is said to be intended to end mistreatment of blacks. The one question never addressed: Do blacks want integration? Does anybody want it?" https://barelyablog.com/fred-reed-toward-a-harmonious-racial-disengagement/ This guy totally gets it. He's making a lot of sense here.

A grand jury will decide whether an armed taqueria customer, who shot and killed a robber last week in southwest Houston and is now being hailed a hero, will be criminally charged. Investigators said the 46-year-old customer, who police have not identified because he's not under arrest, turned himself in and is cooperating with detectives. The 46-year-old's attorney sent Eyewitness News the following statement: "My client, who wishes to remain anonymous, was dining with a friend at El Ranchito Taqueria and as it has been seen on video, a robbery suspect entered the restaurant, and pointed a weapon at my...

The human butt has long been the object of all manner of obsessions. We worry over it: its size, its shape, whether or not it has cellulite on it, how it looks in a pair of jeans. But now, a new source of concern emerges: the alarming possibility that one’s butt — or at least, one’s relationship to butts generally — is racist. For this we may thank the existence of Butts: A Backstory, a new book by journalist Heather Radke. To be fair, it surely is not Radke’s intention to inculcate racial anxiety in her reader: Butts feels like...
