I agree with Keef

Elites? Which flavor of coolaid do you drink, holy mackerel.

I wish the content in the second paragraph of your post above was even remotely true. It would sure make us feel better about the ugly truth of slavery. When Jefferson penned those immortal words, he held slaves and was having children with one of those slaves. What an amazingly consistent person Jefferson was as evidenced by the fact that he held his own offspring that he had with Ms. Hemings as slaves.

Your knowledge of the civil war, its origins, the results, reconstruction and the postscript of Jim Crow for most of the following 100 years is convenient. At best.

I wonder if science will be able to discover that the consumption of some of these newsfeeds actually mimics the results of schizophrenia or CTE. WTF?

Jefferson penned the words. If he didn't believe it he wouldn't have written them. Unfortunately slavery was standard practice at the time but if you studied Jefferson you would also know he had qualms about it. We are not unique however as a nation as nearly all nations have practiced slavery at some point. Maybe if you are truly aggrieved you could speak out against slavery where it still exist today. As I said if they wanted it to continue as a slave nation they could have enshrined it in our Constitution. If you are really aggrieved you should renounce the Democrat party as they were the ones who instituted Jim Crow and fought tooth and nail against the Civil Rights Act. The only schizoprenia I see are those who now elevate the black race over other races while at the same time telling them they are incapable of advancing on their own because of non-existant systemic racism.

quack quack .. 🙄

I mean absolutely no offense but your grasp of history could use a little more balance than simply what youve pieced together, its as if your curriculum was derived from the study of Strom Thurmond.

Maybe if you are truly aggrieved you could speak out against slavery where it still exist today.

I do, through financial support of various charitable endeavors.

As I said if they wanted it to continue as a slave nation they could have enshrined it in our Constitution.

They were largely silent on the matter of slavery as two thirds of the signers of the Constitution were slave owners. They want to ratify a document. The three fifths compromise is clear evidence.

If you are really aggrieved you should renounce the Democrat party as they were the ones who instituted Jim Crow and fought tooth and nail against the Civil Rights Act.

This statement is kindof detached from reality isnt it. The post civil war south was largely democrat because the Union had been republican. Unfortunately, that held true for more than a century following the civil war. If you even remotely understood history, even someone with your agenda to absolve even the hint of institutional racism wouldnt have been shallow enough to attempt this one. The voting tallies of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 were almost universally along geographic lines (northern vs southern states) rather than party lines.

non-existant systemic racism.

Absolutely an idiotic statement.

From Ohio and the North, my dna donors were on the right side of the war of Northern Aggression as it is still known in the lost cause South. Yea, I am a student for sure. Jim Crow is alive today. Go set a watchman.
