Racism?… What Racism?
Yesterday Big Government broke video of a USDA official, Shirley Sherrod, recounting for attendees at an NAACP awards dinner how she withheld help from a white farmer seeking the agency’s help in saving his farm. The crowd in attendance at the NAACP event was not fazed by the admission.
Shirley Sherrod resigned from her post last night after the the story broke.
But the story of NAACP racism does not end there. This former civil rights organization has long history of allowing disgusting, vile, racist, anti-Semitic speakers to address their members.
Another clear example of NAACP racism occurred back in 2000 at the “Redeem the Dream” march and rally at the Lincoln Memorial in Washington DC.
David Horowitz at Front Page Magazine reported on this racist display at the Lincoln Memorial back in September 2000.
Sharpton’s event was held on August 26th at the Lincoln Memorial and was co-hosted by Martin Luther King III (just to make the connection). Its purpose was to commemorate the victory over government-enforced segregation in the South – and to claim, at the same time, that government racism was as big a problem as ever. One could hardly imagine a more embarrassing caricature of King’s triumph than this carnival of sham grievances (“Free Mumia!”) and double standards (white racists bad, black racists ok). Unlike Martin Luther King’s great march, which deliberately excluded the Nation of Islam, Sharpton’s platform embraced Farrakhan and other black promoters of racial hate. Speaker after speaker celebrated a totalitarian unity of the race – the NAACP and Farrakhan, the National Council of Negro Women and the “New Black Panthers.” There was even an “I Have A Black Dream” speech (in exactly those words), delivered by Malik Zulu Shabazz, the “Minister of Justice” of the new Panther Party whose national chairman is the raving anti-white, anti-Jew, anti-Catholic, anti-gay Khalid Muhammad. Zulu Shabazz’s “black dream” was that “for every casket and funeral in our community there should be a casket and funeral in the enemy’s community.”
Not only was there no reaction to thinly veiled incitements to race war, the message itself was not so different from the thematic slogan of the march: “No justice, no peace.” This is a threat of civil mayhem, which Sharpton has made his mantra (it flashes on his website, right above the photo of his booster, Bill Bradley www.nationalaction.net). A Farrakhan emissary named Ishmael Muhammad appeared at the podium to do a pale imitation of the master, who had sent his “Queen” to represent him. As boxing promoter Don King (introduced as “a philanthropist”) actually did sum it all up: “Only in America.”

It is interesting that a group with such a sordid past would promote bogus stories of racism to smear the tea party movement. Clearly the NAACP is no longer interested in civil rights as much they are in pushing a repugnant hard left agenda.

Actually, the last time I looked at the US Department of Justice’s crime statistics, they indicated that a white person had 3-4 times the chance of being killed by a Negro than a Negro had of being killed by a white person. So, apparently these knuckleheads aren’t any better informed than our uncowardly US Attorney General. Oh well, better days are coming.

HEY NAACP!
Planned Parenthood is the largest abortion provider in America. 78% of their clinics are in minority communities. Blacks make up 12% of the population, but 35% of the abortions in America.
Blacks are the only minority in America that is on the decline in population. If the current trend continues, by 2038 the black vote will be insignificant.
The founder of Planned Parenthood, Margaret Sanger, was a devout racist who created the Negro Project designed to sterilize unknowing black women and others she deemed as undesirables of society. (“Colored people are like human weeds and are to be exterminated.”)
THIS IS RACISM!!!

No, clearly they are only interested in a black agenda and are using the dims to achieve it. They want supremacy over th whites. Their grievances have been fed by the dims for decades and it is coming to a head. They thought when Obama was elected that their time had come and are pushing it with all their might. They are just coming out of the closet and letting us know how they feel.

Apparently, any decision, thought, or action that is not in favor of blacks is racism. Apparently racism needs to be killed off.
Nice thoughts.
wanumba commented:
Go back and watch the films of Martin Luther King and of Malcom X, since they were the spokesmen of two different offered solutions to the Black community.
Side by side, it’s easy to see that King was promoting the Biblical grounds of confession, forgiveness, repentence and RECONCILIATION.
In contrast, Malcom X was arguing the Nation of Islam grounds of convicting, unforgiving, penalities and SEPARATION.
Malcom X found out what he was really dealing with and was murdered by NOI for it. The nature of his murder was not the same as the murder of King. Malcom X was killed by his own movement, to keep him from challenging it, King was killed by outside his movement, like Lincoln, after he’d lead it thru the hardest (battle) stages.
But the war is only one part – it’s the aftermath that can make or break battlefield victories.
With the field cleared of two articulate leaders who actually may have had a real potential of uniting in common cause and vision, King and Malcom X, since then the dominant lesser vision has been pushed by the number 2s : Farrakhan, Jesse Jackson, and a host of lesser of the likes Sharpton and Jeremiah Wright and thruout as arguing force and violence, separation, reparations and unforgiving for three decades.
This fundamentally has been a massive spiritual struggle for the soul of the Black community.

Notice too, that Alvin Greene’s speech was nothing but government works projects for government-provided jobs – just a SLIGHT variation in rhetoric from Sherrod’s exhortation to get on the government payroll.

All which the media covers up and acts like they never happened.
Let a white person say the word “makaka” to a non white person, and it’s “stop the presses, stop the presses”, “breaking news”, “this just in”.

I have long admired the noble purpose and creative work of this institution. For twenty-five years you have stood with dauntless courage and fearless determination. You have given the South some of its most responsible leaders in this great period of transition. So I am happy to congratulate you today for all of your great work, and hope for you many more years of creative and meaningful work.”

He bragged about being part of a Communist activist movement. King was marketed, packaged and sold to the American people as someone he was not. Just like Obama.

Do you get the feeling that the Progressive-Left leadership thinks that the chaos which their takeover plans require (never let a crisis go to waste) is waaay too slow in coming? They’ve illegally taken over car companies, they’ve rammed thru the nearly-trillion dollar stimulus, they’ve tried to start the “punish the oppressive rich!” class war, they forced the unpopular healthcare bill into law, they’ve been calling us racists for a year now…. and still we’re not at the necessary boiling point to enable martial law and the “postponement” of elections due to “unrest”.
Go to the meetings and protests and demonstrations and rallies; stand up to these thugs verbally (and be sure EVERYTHING is documented), but never-never-never lose your cool. The pushback is what they’re waiting and praying for. Don’t give them the satisfaction. Don’t give them the justification for the “next step” of governmental overreach.

NAACP- why not picket and repudiate Planned Parenthood whose founder Margaret Sanger was a noted KLAN speaker and Planned Parenthood still praises her? Planned Parenthood’s president admitted the organization took racist donations on a CNN interview and recently racist donations were accepted by Planned Parenthood again on an undercover video. In addition, Margaret Sanger was a racist member of the American Eugenics Society and so were many on her board and even Alan Guttacher, former PP Prez is still praised despite his being a Eugenics VP. The American Eugenics Society was deemed by many as being VERY racist ! Repudiate Planned Parenthood, NAACP ! Think about Lothrop Stoddard another racist Sanger Board member whose books and quotes are used by today’s KLAN.
NAACP- Get the documentary called Maafa21 and there you will see 2.5 hours of undeniable evidence that if you are going to repudiate RACE- you MUST point the finger squarely at Planned Parenthood. The film- Maafa21 is available here (watch trailer) http://www.maafa21.com

Oh geez, this one hits home for me, as a blogger covering the tea party. The amount of press time Williams recieved for the Abraham Lincoln paper, which was a satirical piece. Now between this and Shirley Sherrod what more do we have to say than that the NAACP is more racist than the tea party?

Jeez. If this sort of thing is AT ALL typical of the NAACP, then the NAACP just might be the black man’s equivalent of the Ku Klux Klan — and projecting their own racism onto their perceived enemies.

Maybe if they paid attention in school and were capable of doing math, they’d realize that the United States is 65.4-75% white (depending on if you include white hispanics/latinos) and 12.4% black, so there are already 5-6 white caskets/funerals for every black casket/funeral.
That’s called RACIST FAIL and BASIC MATH FAIL.

[The reason for so many parallels between Islam and BLT is that they are both based upon the same principles—submission and duality. Since Islam views white America as an enemy, BLT see Islam as the "enemy of my enemy" and therefore is a friend. Witness the award that Rev. Wright gave Louis Farrakhan as an outstanding person. This comradeship is temporary. When the time comes and Islam is fully ascendant, BLT will find out that Islam has been using them, just as Islam uses the Left. In the end, Islam will annihilate BLT for the simple reason that Islam demands political submission from ALL, not the just the whites.]

“Side by side, it’s easy to see that King was promoting the Biblical grounds of confession, forgiveness, repentence and RECONCILIATION.”

……………….
The point still stands, that’s what King was preaching, and how he was motivating Blacks and Whites, and he defended that position consistently, with a solid understanding of it in many venues.
Whether he would have kept on it or not over the years had he not been murdered is another question. We don’t know – people argue back and forth that his background was communist influenced, others argue he chose the Biblical approach out of genuine faith, not expediency. We don’t know.
As a movement leader, King achieved far more comprehensive positive social change thru the Biblical message than Malcom X or his rival Farrakhan did. Who knows what would have happened had Malcom X successfully broke off the NOI – obviously the NOI decided it was too grave a threat to their power to allow that.
Now all we have is NOI-NBP-NAACP all using the same rhetoric. Not King’s, but Farrakhan, Wright … and the ubiquitous Green Socialist Islamist terrorist Ghaddafi who HATES the USA.
WHen the Obama administration says “green” we should refer to Ghaddafi’s “Green Book.”

[ I am an American Muslim dedicated to defeating the ideology that fuels global Islamist terror -- political Islam. And I don't see such a "center" actually fighting terrorism or being a very "positive" addition near Ground Zero, no matter how well intentioned.
To put it bluntly, Ground Zero is the one place in America where Muslims should think less about teaching Islam and "our good side" and more about being American and fulfilling our responsibilities to confront the ideology of our enemies.
Khan and Rauf avoid discourse on reform and political Islam. Instead, they simply give us the familiar, too vague condemnation of "extremism and violence." They seem to conveniently view 9/11, al Qaeda and every manifestation of militant Islamism as simply a public-relations problem for "Muslims in the West." Imam Rauf has even gone so far as to bizarrely say that the 9/11 terrorists were "not Muslims."]

Whitey at the bottom of the totem pole is on the far left agenda, along with the elimination of Judao-Christian values, oppression of Christians and Jews, oppression of men (especially white men), elimination of the traditional family unit (mom, dad and kids), etc. Using the NAACP kills two birds with one stone at this time: Discredit/disband the TEA Party and push whitey a little further down the totem pole.
From American Heritage Dictionary
civil rights
pl.n. The rights belonging to an individual by virtue of citizenship, especially the fundamental freedoms and privileges guaranteed by the 13th and 14th Amendments to the U.S. Constitution and by subsequent acts of Congress, including civil liberties, due process, equal protection of the laws, and freedom from discrimination.
It’s obvious that civil rights are no longer on the agenda at the NAACP.

I wonder when these people will grow up and learn that slavery was years ago? My own ancestor came here in 1747, a white man, under serfdom and had to have a letter releasing him to come here, and if he returned he would be put under serfdom again.
My husband’s ancestor got on the wrong boat to come here, and was put under serfdom in Va.
I guess these people won’t pull themselves up by any means, and have to keep harping on “raaacists” agendas….because many Dems cannot go a day without some trouble in their lives…I know, I used to work with a whole bunch that did this…if trouble wasn’t going on they made up stories!
