We're living in a golden age of awareness about white supremacy. You can't turn on your TV without hearing the phrase applied to the news, whether it's the explanation for Glenn Youngkin's victory in Virginia or Kyle Rittenhouse's actions in Kenosha. But more often than not, white progressives' newfound obsession with opposing white supremacy isn't helping. It's coming at Black people's expense. Reverend Jerry McAfee of New Salem Church in Minneapolis has described white supremacy as a situation where white people are defining your reality and then forcing you to live under that definition. And sadly, that's what we're seeing...

Black Lives Matter spent millions on 'consulting services' in 2021 Newly released tax filings revealed that BLM paid $970K to co-founder Patrisse Cullors' baby daddy to help 'produce live events' and provide 'creative services' The foundation also paid her brother $840K for security services A consulting firm run by BLM board member Shalomyah Bowers was paid $2.1M for providing the organization with operational support Bowers said the last BLM board approved the contract with his firm when he was not a board member The filing also revealed that Cullors reimbursed BLM $73K for a charter flight and paid the foundation...

Joe Biden will use the blood of innocents to paint millions of Americans as “white supremacists” and wannabe terrorists simply for supporting the opposite political party. Joe Biden will travel to Buffalo on Tuesday, ostensibly to join the upstate New York community in mourning the murders of 10 people at a local grocery store over the weekend. It is, of course, appropriate for Biden in his role as president to grieve with Americans devastated by such a brutal massacre of innocents, especially an attack that from all accounts was racially motivated. What’s not appropriate is for Biden to use the...

Ami on the Street: Are voter ID laws racist and suppress the black vote? Satirist Ami Horowtiz goes to UC Berkeley and Harlem to find out

From Dallas Justice Now (BLM): To Our White Allies: Talk is not enough. Commit yourself towards taking action and making sacrifices to correct centuries of injustice. Open up spaces for Black and LatinX communities by refusing to send your kids to Ivy League and US News & World Report Top 50 schools and encourage friends, neighbors, and family members to do the same. Imagine if those hundreds of thousands of spots at these institutions were occupied only by marginalized communities. Imagine the opportunities. We can achieve true equity within our lifetimes but only if white folks are willing to sacrifice...

Our Chinese friends are eating our lunch, and we seem to constantly be looking for ways to make it easier for them to do so. The flagellants are practitioners of an extreme form of mortification of their own flesh by whipping it with various instruments. It was most notably a fourteenth-century movement within the Catholic Church. It served as a sort of self-inflicted penance for the practitioners-penance for sins actual and imagined. There is a Chinese word, baizou (pronounced "bye-tsaw"), which refers insultingly to educated western people who advocate for peace and equality only to satisfy their own feelings of...

Tucker Carlson revealed on Friday that the Chinese have a special, disdainful term for Biden and America’s other White wokesters. On Thursday, during a meeting in Anchorage, China’s top diplomat and its Foreign Minister showed Secretary of State Tony Blinken (an empty suit) and national security adviser Jake Sullivan stunning disrespect. It was almost as if the Chinese knew that these are weak, self-loathing, confused men – and it turns out they did know. Tucker Carlson revealed on Friday that the Chinese have a word for Biden and the other White wokesters now in power. They call them “baizuo,” and...

Black Lives Matter is the operational arm of “critical race theory,” the postmodern philosophy of “critical theory” applied to race. Critical theory suffers an inescapable epistemological conundrum. It’s the Liar’s Paradox: If a Cretan says all Cretans are liars, is he to be believed? Or, in the case of critical theory: If a theory denies objective or universal truths, claiming that the powers-that-be subconsciously construct “reality” by projecting their will to power onto the transcendent screen of axiomatic certainty, all to perpetuate structures of power in which they’re on top, then does not critical theory itself fall under that same...

When they’re not hurling racist comments at Black Republican officials, White liberals are assuming they’re smarter and more well-equipped than people of color to handle the world. Take their argument for voter-ID laws for instance. White liberals inform us all that people of color, especially those who live in urban areas, are somehow too poor or too stupid to obtain an ID in order to vote. We all know that in order to function in America, we have to have an ID. Whether it be obtaining services from the government, buying alcohol or cigarettes, picking up your prescription, going to...

“I was enjoying dinner with friends when this protest broke out. Watch it all. They ruined a perfect evening. My apologies for any profanity I let slip.”

White college graduates have emerged from the last two decades of elections as an increasingly large and cohesive political bloc -- and one that poses problems for both political parties. Back in the pre-COVID-19 era, their numbers augmented by recent products of woke campuses, they seemed to be the dominant force in the race for the Democratic presidential nomination. They flitted from one candidate to the next, tilting toward Sen. Kamala Harris after she whacked Joe Biden for opposing school busing in the 1970s, then luxuriating in Sen. Elizabeth Warren's stentorian assurances that, on every issue, she had "a plan...

While the majority of voters across the board support halting immigration due to the coronavirus, Hispanic voters are more in favor of a moratorium than white voters are. A new poll from the Washington Post revealed that 65 percent of all voters want all immigration to the United States to be put on pause.

The mother of Mollie Tibbetts, a 20-year-old Iowa college student who was allegedly murdered earlier this year by an immigrant residing the U.S. illegally, adopted the child of Mexican immigrants who fled town after the man accused of killing her daughter was arrested. Laura Calderwood told The Washington Post in an interview published Friday that she had taken in Ulises Felix, 17, after his parents fled town following Cristhian Bahena Rivera's arrest... The Post reported that Felix's parents had worked alongside Rivera at the same dairy farm for years. Felix told the paper that his parents "took care of" Rivera...

The Democrats are the party of Jim Crow, black codes, and the Ku Klux Klan—but it’s the GOP that’s racist and has a racist history, or something. These historical debates get the Left and Right going on social media. Yet, a new study just drives the heart into the whole notion that liberalism is open and averse to racism.  It’s the seat of irony. The report found that white liberals dumb themselves down while interacting with minorities in order to get along with them (via Yale Insights): Racial bias can put people of color at a disadvantage when interviewing for...

Therapists in the U.S. say they have seen a rise in politically-related anxiety under the Trump presidency. Though a condition has not been officially named, therapists and patients have referred to it as “Trump Anxiety Disorder,” according to a report from Canada’s CBC News. Elisabeth LaMotte, the founder of the D.C. Counseling and Psychotherapy Center in Washington, D.C., told CBC that there is a “collective anxiety” among her patients related to President Trump’s rhetoric and policies. "There is a fear of the world ending," she said. "It's very disorienting and constantly unsettling." She said that Trump critics who she treats...

White Lives Matter Too Much! #WhiteLiberalsAreIdiots (Tommy's commentary on White liberals and white guilt)

White liberals are bad for America’s public safety health- so bad in fact that I as a sane American Black keep them away from any self-defense, public safety or homeland security discussion I watch numbly as liberals hoist local thugs and distant terrorists in their endless quest to create phony civil rights causes. This is actually a side-handed complement to the epic progress achieved during the Civil Rights Movement era. In the absence of plentiful White dragons of discrimination to slay they’ve foolishly returned to violent ” people of color ” ( one of their pet names for us )...

Dr. Benjamin Carson is responding to the demonization of him by the liberal media by pointing out the obvious, that liberal media types, many if not most of whom are white, hold a special hatred for black conservatives. Nice Deb has links and the video:**snip**At Daily Kos, Dr.Carson has gone from hero to a “Political Mandingo” and Uncle Tom. That sounds pretty racist to me.

A splintered black community will not see an end to the violence afflicting inner cities. White people must accept responsibility for their role in destroying the black community. And America needs to start targeting the unseen gun runners selling guns to gang bangers. All those were among the messages controversial Nation of Islam leader Minister Louis Farrakhan delivered to a packed house at St. Sabina Catholic Church on Friday. “Our children are out there killing themselves and one another. My beloved brother lost his daughter to senseless violence,” Farrakhan said of Nathaniel Pendleton — father of 15-year-old murder victim Hadiya...
