I mean, I could give a gently caress, but don't you think it's a little on the nose for old white perceptions of people protesting their views?

The problem is the intolerant bigots, not the people that they can't stand and refuse to treat as equals.

The best part is Colin isn't even doing anything. White America is so worked up they can't stop paying attention even though they want people to stop paying attention. It's kind of beautiful.

I also enjoy the crossover of people sick of "outage culture" losing their minds over the anthem protests.

Communism has always been on the side of black rights. I don't know how much that has to do with mutual hate of Rich Whitey but they've always been down with the movements

Race is a lie created by proto-capitalists to divide poor white workers and poor non-white workers.

One of my favorite history professors described human history as "people meeting and having sex everywhere". Hell, one of our most enduring cultural heroes went on voyages specifically to seduce different kinds of strange.

Have they? I know the wobblies in Washington State got their start by inciting a lot of anti Chinese sentiment (because ports were hiring Chinese dock workers willing to work for a lot less than what the standard pay was for their white counterparts).

I hope you're right because I'm just floating around this thread waiting for a chance to talk about Hoover and I think that gets me closer to the goal.

e: On reflection Spoeank's post gives me free reign anyway. I am giving forums poster African Aids Cum a list of 200+ posters who are card carrying communists should he buy out his ban.

Hmm, this doesn't seem as damaging around here as it was back then.

The Wobblies were also one of the first unions to allow blacks, as well. The Commies have always been down with Black Rights once they got rightly organized with a unifying message for *all* laborers. It only intensified as civil rights and the cold war rolled on, too. The government feared MLK not only because he was down for black rights but they were afraid they were going to turn all the black people into card carrying communists.

The USSR kinda hoped that would happen too

“I think it’s the wrong venue,” Irsay said. “It hasn’t been a positive thing. What we all have to be aware of as players, owners, PR people, equipment managers, is when the lights go on we are entertainment. We are being paid to put on a show. There are other places to express yourself.”

Reminder, Jim Irsay is a spoiled rich kid, who literally had a billion dollar business handed to him by his daddy.

Kaep took advantage of the bye week to hold his "I Know My Rights" camp, a camp he and some friends planned and pulled off by themselves for kids in Oakland

Each kid got a shirt with 10 rights listed (You have the right to be free, healthy, brilliant, safe, loved, courageous, alive, trusted, educated, and to know your rights)

quote:

"We're here today to fight back and give you all lessons to combat the oppressive issues that our people face on a daily basis. We're here to give you tools to help you succeed,” he said. “We're going to give you knowledge on policing history, what the systems of policing in America were based on, and we're also going to teach you skills to make sure you always make it home safely."

Colin continued, "We want to teach you today about financial literacy, how you can pursue higher education, how you can be physically fit and healthy. We will talk about police brutality, and what to do about it, but we also have lawyers, professors, health and fitness experts, because we want you to be able to live the life of your dreams."

For the next several hours, the kids would attend smaller breakout sessions with leaders and experts challenging them to create powerful new habits for success. Not a single workshop was about sports, but instead they were all about essential life skills that would prepare the kids for a world that often treats people of color with an incredible harshness.

Kaep posted:

As many of you know, I was adopted. As African-Americans in general, it's often hard to know where our ancestry, where our roots are. As someone that was adopted, for me, it has been even harder. All I ever really knew was that I was from Milwaukee, but recently, I took an Ancestry DNA test and discovered that my ancestors are from Ghana and Nigeria. It changed everything for me. It helped me know that my history did not begin with being adopted. It did not begin with slavery. It's even part of why I wear this Afro now. I'm not going to hide who I am.

I want all of you to know what I know, so when you leave, in your bag, you'll see the forms where each and every one of you can discover your ancestry through your DNA for free. We've taken care of that for each of you. I want you to know what I know and know where you came from before slavery, before this oppression that we are experiencing, before police brutality, you had thousands of years of rich history and I want you to know your roots with that history.
