Nikole Hannah-Jones: What drives me is rage
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 15 янв 2018
- Nikole Hannah-Jones, award-winning investigative reporter at The New York Times Magazine, spoke about Charlottesville, 400 years of racism in the US, and how we educate our children, at The Power of Storytelling 2017.
I know the intention was good, but the negative reference to "she ended up going to an HBCU....", .is really negative and damaging when you have students who got high ACT scores going to HBCUs by choice when they could have gone to almost any school in the USA. Please note that HBCU schools take students who have low scores and turn them into scholars ( like my brother who has an PhD from a major white institution and is a college professor) and further develop those like my daughter who had top ACT scores, testing out of her first year of Chemistry, Physics and Calculus and could get into almost any top white university, (she is a science researcher at an Ivy league institution). Both are graduates of HBCU institutions.
@@ursamajor6347 , consider your tone and approach when you want respect. Mind your attitude toward those you want to realize your "plight".
People are NOT PREJUDICE, NOR RACIST because of skin color. They treat you that way because of your ATTITUDE, DEMEANOR and your tone in which you convey it. So far it's been just violent, very hypocritical, and CONSTANTLY finding fault

@@malcolmking3329 I'm confident in what I see in my mirror.
I understand I'm not "perfect", yet I'll ALWAYS be judged and ridiculed by those like you that can ONLY blame and find fault regardless. Those, like you, don't know compliment, just complaint
Stay with it, it's "worked" for forty some years now, ... right (?)•••
@@ursamajor6347 and THAT IS THE POINT, you outed yourself right there as APATHETIC. You don't care, you just want to FIND FAULT and be malevolent.
@@bonnett5463 🤷🏾♂️ Since you didn’t get it, I’ll try another way. Reflect on you telling someone to be more respectful and to frame/phrase a topic in a way better suited to you so that you can feel better or be more engaged. That’s thought number one. Number 2 is this; now think about saying that in a disrespectful way. The mirror I mentioned earlier symbolized reflection. But I guess that’s just too much to ask. Well, have a good one.
I found the passage that was deleted from the Declaration...
"He has waged cruel war against human nature itself, violating its most sacred rights of life and liberty in the persons of a distant people who never offended him, captivating and carrying them into slavery in another hemisphere, or to incur miserable death in their transportation hither … And he is now exciting those very people to rise in arms among us, and to purchase that liberty of which he had deprived them, by murdering the people upon whom he also obtruded them: thus paying off former crimes committed against the liberties of one people, with crimes which he urges them to commit against the lives of another."

And the millions of us who lost ancestors who died in the civil war fighting to free the slaves? Do we get reparations?
I respect her, but I totally disagree with forced integration......... I do not want to be around people who do not want to be around me. That actually causes more problems. Give us equal resources and we're fine..... Begging people to let us be in their presence actually makes them feel more superior and makes us feel more inferior...

She has a point. Can’t expect other people to write your story. If you want your story told, you have to write it.
A race grifter and it is sad that you bought into her grift hook, line and sinker.
When people don't want you to know your history then you must be the original people and you must have come from royalty. This inspire me to inquire even more.
Fear is the path to the dark side. Fear leads to anger. Anger leads to hate. Hate leads to suffering

Thank you for sharing.
There are two philosophies of education. Parents who believe in it and make sure their children attend and parents who don’t.
When the United States was born, slavery was very common. Between 1530 and 1780, only in North Africa, a million or more European Christians were enslaved. George Orwell said "The most effective way to destroy people is to deny and obliterate their own understanding of their history."
They don't care
Ironically, that is not an Orwell quote.
Nice try, though.
Give me a Black break!
The Europeans you're talking about were black....
@@shelbydavis3311 no, white
The like to dislike ratio and the comments are telling two completely different stories lol
The only problem that I had with this lecture was how she referred to HBCUs. She said that a particular black student had to apply to an HBCU, not that she didn't want better. I was shocked that she spoke this way not only about HBCUs who have educated our people and very well, I might add; but also in a room full of foreigners whose opinions are shaped by what Black people say about each other.
She has a white mother and a father who chose white over someone who looks like her. So naturally she holds our former slave master in high regard. We all have all been effected by the self hate tool of white Jesus.
We are ISRAELITES and they know it.
Not all HBCU's offer such a great education anymore. Many have become institutions that cater to incorporating white students. Many have gone broke and many have become a shadow of their past. Really, only the big names like Spelman, Howard, Emory and a few others are able to keep their head above water and keep a clear message of superior education for us. HBCU's were the go to for our black children, no longer is that always the truth.
Lom Nikki Haley's dad was or is a full professor at an HBCU. Look it up.

@@mikedraper8316 this entire message about white privilege, supremacy, etc. being taught to children is white supremacy. She like others is telling black people and kids consciously or subconsciously that white people are better in every way and if whites would just let us be around them and go to their schools and live by them wed be better.
This message trash and is a big part of the problem
Pgh,Pa. in the 60s...My Mother took us out and self bussed us to the new school.Multible Carnegie-Tech-Mellon graduates etc.Good jobs..Amazin!
I try not to comment when there’s controversy but I can’t help it.
My history teacher always put it this way- getting the constitution passed was difficult, and the founding fathers had a bureaucracy like we do. It was hard enough to get the constitution as it was. With many slave owners in the US- do you really think, if they’d put abolition into the constitution, that we would have a constitution? You have to keep in mind the constitution was made when our nation was founded - we were a new, very fragile country.
I’m not advocating for slavery, not even then, but they compromised. In 1807, there was the Act Prohibiting the Importation of Slaves. They had thought slavery might die out, and abolitionists continued to work to ban slavery all together- abolitionists were usually the same people who campaigned for women’s suffrage, and other reforms, such as improved education.
You can’t hold all of America, I should say, all white Americans, accountable for one group. Those white Americans who can trace their roots back that far, which I don’t believe is a majority of white Americans, probably find their ancestors were poor and unable to do anything about it anyway.
You would be surprised how many can trace clear back to Plymouth rock. I also agree with your whole point. Some of my white ancestors were against slavery and in some cases killed and driven from states for it.
Your fragility is showing. You begin by saying what she said and then got caught up in defending something not defendable. Again, the question is asked, "Who are you willing to sacrifice for what you want?" Your comment implies sacrifice everyone but the White people.
@@rhondabarlow860 The post is fairly old and your point is not clear to me at least. Neither post above defended slavery if that was your point. Your comment of "implies sacrifice everyone but white people", makes no sense when both posters above clearly spoke against slavery. No one deserves reperations for the deeds done by others long gone. If that were not the case, everyone would be in line ahead of you.
When Caucasian and Anglo-Saxon people of ivory skin came here to our land, we opened our arms to them. We fought for their freedom. In return we got diseased blankets, and all our land taken, our families where separated by hue of skin, those who made it to Oklahoma and rebuilt a city where bombed! Those who stayed behind where redesignated as coloreds, black, negro, black and now African American, though most of the people of color are indigenous to America.
While these things are not your fault, they are the history of the Gentiles overall. Yet, we have hope that soon this hellish nightmare will end and righteoUSness will be established not only in this land, but in this world.
Some folks will never accept truth.
Robert E. So true white people do not want the truth.

If you think this is because of a problem to accept the truth, well that's NOT it. This is an issue of human nature. People of privilege are very much "AWARE" of the problems that black integration would bring them. It will drive down the property value of their homes, it will make them fear their kids' grades will deteriorate and they'd be influenced into gang culture. It will cause more white flight and investors pulling out of the community. If these people think their "racial utopia" can be achieved by simply "educating" people about "narratives", then THEY are the ones who are uneducated. THERE IS NO SOLUTION!
You mean like how revolutionary war was about slavery. Even tho the brits didn't free there slaves until 1833. 50 years after the war. Like that truth
Burner Fire this is the kind of outcomes we get from the people who are over focused on “privilege”.

@@jackreacher1717 so you learned absolutely nothing. Why did you waste your time?
It's good to know what the enemy thinks.
That's the problem: With rage you are unlikely to find the truth. Rage and fear are two modes that shut down reasoning.

It's a metaphor as a person of color I can say, when I think about the way yt ppl have treated poc and what this country is entrenched in it will make u mad

Bertram Davis That's the deal, real deal.
See that is the problem. You must take it. But remember this this is the only country we have so fight for what is yours. And the original sin was not created by white American or European. It was by Africans. So we are a new people. Hell our bloodline has been mixed and our culture was recreated here.
@@squests3139
You definitely reaffirmed the way I feel. I find it amazing that people from some, especially those from other countries criticized America, (it be should in many aspects), but millions of people are trying to get in this country everyday. They are taking jobs and opportunities that Black people have fought and died for so that their children would have a better future and they are giving it away. There is still slavery in Africa as well as Caste implemented by other Africans.
Bertram D. This country will die first. It needs to die.

People keep talking about how it’s wrong for her to be driven by rage; but anger directed towards evil is, good. If you see a child being abused, you are motivated by rage to stand up for said child. So, rage is not always a bad thing. Y’all knew EXACTLY what she met, but felt the need to make a point against it.
Thank you
her analysis is like a study in history of Columbus and she found out that he came on a 747 and landed in a corn field.
You sound high. Her analysis is spot on.
Thank you Miss Jones for all of this knowledge but would you please please write a book because my vision is not that good and I want to get it on Audible so could you think about this strongly and by the book of 1619 thank you again and God bless

Record yourself reading the 1619Project aloud and create 10 minute sections/soundbites in format that works best for you, i.e. mp3). Then you can listen to it at your convenience.
If there's no force to make a party change & they gain from remaining the same, it's not natural to just stop and it's psychotic to willingly stay where you inevitably lose and COMPLAIN.
That's where the fight start.
Who enabled the mass capture and transport of slaves?
During the depopulation of Africa in the 1500's nearly 40 million were killed. My understand, going elsewhere to work, was better than death. And I've also read, that many were either drugged or they got them drunk on rum. And the Chief's loved rum and would trade slaves for rum.
Wrong motivation. Wrong result. Can't proceed from a false assumption...😉😎
😳😳😳😳😳
More specifically what drives her is rage that her egomania isn't resoundingly resulting in everyone acknowledging that she created America and that it should be handed over to her immediately. (She's in for a very big fall.)

You Ma'am are perfect in your approach and knowledge from 1619 forward.
I read today a story about your tenure letdown you have experienced.
So the first question I asked myself, is what is 1619. Though this video is only the second I listened to today, and I'm far from knowing everything, I can honestly say from today forward I will challenge my way of thinking and analyzing any and everything that is talked about when it comes to Race and equality
Please for the love of all things holy, do not stop writing and teaching us. The way you explain things is an absolute must have in our society and this written word you speak. Awesome.
Honestly I was not expected to be knocked on my ass when hearing America's truth, but you. Nice job.

This Earth is filled with the dust of our loved ones
And with that of the ones who showed us no mercy
But the Evil ones knew no better having themselves
Been victims of a horrible power called government
The truth is that the victims of Evil are so numerous that
If they went back to their natural instinct of survival,
Nobody could ever harm them and their loved ones, but
For that they need courage that they have no more.
Yet, there was a time when we ploughed the land,
Rode on horseback, swam in rivers and lakes, ate the
Food that we, our parents, wives, and children grew,
But, not anymore because we lost our humanity.
Most humans have devolved to worse than animals
With bones and muscles only for show on stadiums
They more often walk not on earth, but on dead matter.
Where is that earth that once was sown with their dead?
A creature offered to advise me about my funerals and
I replied I was not from Earth. When she was shocked or puzzled,
I added that anyway if I were a human, when my time was up,
I would just have to jump over the cliffs of Dover, and it’s free.
Once upon a time, our ancestors owned the land, but not anymore.
Now, we have polluted waters, air, bodies, and our earth blossoms
No more, produces no more what is safe and healthy for us.
We pay governments to make the 10% rich and the 90% wretched.
God is dead and might is right; fair is foul and foul is fair.
Now, we pay creatures to come on stage and laugh to amuse us.
We are fed with lies and drugs day in day out, and we love it and
Our fathers and mothers have no more tears to shed.
Oh God, the All Merciful, why dost Thou not feel or see our pain?
Why should we humans have to beg You when we never beg our
Own Fathers and Mothers because they always knew our needs?
But, we are now all owned by the government as their slaves.
We know not what good life is and we go back to Nature only to
Enrich the tourist industry when we are surrounded by Nature.
We even pollute our fishes and eat them; we pollute all morals
And we rejoice at it in the name of Equality and Democracy!
Our men are not men anymore; our women not women anymore.
And, our depravity knows no bound; we have become child abusers!
Dishonesty, cowardice, treachery, hypocrisy, covetousness and
Greed are our way of life and we have no remorse. IS THERE GOD?

Before the very first slave landed on American shores he was first captured, transported and sold by his fellow African brothers, who were compensated for him with rum guns and trinkets
Sad fact and there was also white slaves if I remember right
but first the mexica people built Santa Fe, NM in 1609...Barrio Anulco. In the Pueblo revolt of 1680, Popay the leader surrounded the white spaniards and made this demand: :"send out all the natives to us, the pueblo, the hopi, even the mexica who came with you."

When it comes to education, let's stop looking down at our HBCU.
Especially since HBCUs are the highest producers of black doctors, lawyers, engineers and various other high paying positions. As an alum of a HBCU, I can tell you many companies come to HBCUs to recruit black employees while they go to PWI for white employees. At least that was how they did it for the accounting field.

I don’t look down on HBCs. But why can’t whites have back there HWCs, Or Asians or Hispanics? Seems racists, blacks get on whites for not being involved with them. But they want to go to black colleges. Sounds like they want it both ways.
Funny how the FAA lowered air traffic controller testing scores to accommodate the black community.
I think it started before 1619 it started with a papal bull 1458 when the Italian pope said it was okay to trade Africans for money and other perishables.
1619 is the beginning in the future U.S. ... The Atlantic Slave Trade began much earlier in the Carribean, South & Central America. Thus the earlier date of the Papal Bull (Dum Diversas) you mentioned.
In the United States, we are not debating as to whether or not the war was about slavery. Obviously there will always be people who argue this, just as there are fools who will argue that the earth is flat. There is wide consensus that the war was about slavery, and perhaps she is out of touch with the sentiment of us who are to be the arbiters of the course of this nation.
We don’t deny our history. Those us that don’t function with ‘Rage’ in our hearts tend to move forward. I try to live by the golden rule instead of bashing others over the head with my own narratives and beliefs or bashing them for mistakes past. Makes no sense to me to keep blaming people for things that were not of their own doing, nor hating on any culture with a blanketed bias.
The Pilgrims used rage to break away from the Queens rule, facts are what they are and you obviously only cherry picked what you wanted to hear. Rage is not always a bad thing and can get positive results... i.e. America!
Because it's not the past
I enjoyed this talk until the last comment "the young lady end going to an HBCU". The phrasing came across as though HBCUs are second class schools. That is absolutely not the case. I respect Ms. Jones' work however that was a mistake on her part.
Black poeple need to change history by choosing there own history first.
Patrick Jones you are so right.
Well you can start by stop using the label "black" which is an artefact of slavery, and was a label imposed by enslavers on enslaved people of African descent.
@@lesleykramer7207, we Identify with Black, because we as are the Asiatic Black People and not Africans. Africa was named by the Romans and their leader, by the name of Scipio Africanus. We are heading in the right direction, as we keep learning how we got here as enslaved people and what was our origins 16,000 years ago, as the first people to step foot on the soils of the Americas.
@@michaelcampbell5817 No, you identify as black, because that's the label the white man assigned to you.
Africans never described or thought of themselves as black, until the label "black" as opposed to "white" was created by "white" supremacists, to indicate "black" people as being "inferior", and justifying their being enslaved.
It's interesting (not to mention funny), that you now take the label imposed about your ancestors, and wear it as a badge of pride.
Nikole wrote the history for all black people, so there you go. Feel the rage.
and the dems run the southern states so jim crow was a dem thing! like the kkk!
Those that didn’t like Miss Jones’ HBCU comment may have missed a message. By wanting better perhaps Miss Jones meant being in a multicultural institution with a multicultural student body. How many Whites attend Tuskeegee, Howard, or Grambling? Do these institutions have the best facilities? I didn’t see that in the mid Nineties at Grambling. I was shocked at the poor exterior quality of some of Grambling’s physical stock. It was depressing. The white institution I trying to escape in Northern Louisiana had newer more modern looking buildings. They also had the Deep South attitude where Blacks had a “place” never to be left. So no, the buildings at the White college didn’t make it a better place for education. It’s just Grambling had me feeling as though it was below the standard of the white college. I didn’t transfer to Grambling nor did I finish at the white college. I was an Army war vet trying to work two jobs and attend college. I was mostly in a re adjustment to society struggle. That was about 1995 or ‘96. Just at the end of 2021 have I got more peace back in my life. A long struggle. Lastly, racism’s real. It needs to be solved. It’s going to take more God, more love. Racism does indeed destroy lives. Peace.

Rage never fixed anything. Rage only produces more rage.
TITLE3 SAYS IT ALL
"What drives me is rage" and the fact that I AM NOT BLACK ENOUGH?
What?
Its true, mixed race people have a lot of issues.
@@Lone432345 Its true, white racists have a lot of issues.
I know right
@@Lone432345
As a mixed person it was hard because my mom is hispanic and the racial hate I got from hispanic people made life rough for me
Can you go on the megaphone microphone and speak to the people in the street and tell them why are they breaking into windows why are they tearing down the cityThere is no black man no black community leaders saying don’t do this where are they at now where is the Martin Luther King that we used to have nowhere in sight
The Civil War was about money the same as all wars.No one gave a fig in government about slavery.The South succeeded over money and tariffs on its trading partners and used the issue of slavery to promote fear in the White population to fight.The Northern Industrialists through their influence on Congress got tariffs passed on the South’s European trading partners and their imports of finished goods to the Southern ports,which were making them rich.The North wanted the South to buy it’s finished products instead of Europe’s.The North also used the Slavery issue to promote fear of a loss of jobs in the North if the South got more powerful with the use of free labor.The irony is that after the War and a half million dead the country and its industrial base would grow and the machine was rendering the use of slavery as a useless expense and that experiment is about to reach greater heights today as AI takes over many jobs.The age of the average low skilled worker is coming to an end.Although the Western nations have long rid the scourge of slavery from their shores it is still practice in Africa and in the Parlors of the sex trade industry to an estimated 50 billion dollar industry.
It’s sad that she don’t feel things will get better, than what is the point. We must believe and push for better. If black people thought like she did with that comment we all would still be slaves afraid to fight and get free from the slave master. Hope is what makes us strive beyond the rage of injustice to be successful.
Honey, HOW, just how do we change America's past?
I TOO say that "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain UNALIENABLE RIGHTS, that among these are Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness" was the HIGHEST HYPOCRISY placed into The Constitution.
BUT, again, we cannot change the past, regardless that YOU, as the (with ALL due and sincere respect) as the black community that supports, ... insists on this narrative that IT STILL EXISTS.
You, and those that support the likes of the (also) hypocritical blm, don't offer solution, yet reject it regardlessly. You offer blame, yet NO RESOLUTION, - NOR ACCOUNTABILITY. IT'S EVERYONE ELSE'S FAULT
Shame on you ma'am
Well said. Another point these folks seem to forget is the establishment of the constitution was what should be ideal. Even among white Americans that was not the case.
She didn't start the fire, your likes did.

Proof in point, just like a second-grader, you revert to "she didn't start it." You will never be accountable, never. Regardless, it doesn't matter who started it. We ALL need to work this out and start afresh, NOT IN THE PAST. If all you can do is find fault, then you're petty and pathetic considering that's ALL you can do; you can't "find" or be any more contributing than simply find fault. That's only a second-grade level resolve, only a second-grade comprehension.

Acknowledge your role in dysfunction. If you refuse to leave no matter what, it's your ultimate power, what's the incentive for the other party to stop or think you're rational??? "Asking" isn't an American power move. Average history books bury real power moves.
@@ursamajor6347 incorrect strategy. No oppressor has both agreed to see the oppressed as equals and done it on the same land. Jewish people after a 5-6 year nightmare have a huge empowerment from having their own land to go to. Blacks, after over 400 years, have that but don't leverage it nearly enough. Read COLOR OF WEALTH & you may see how much money is gained by others from blacks socio economic status/behavior in the US. Leaving or isolating financially (read: taking the money) is a power move. Not "asking". Good luck with the psychology.

She’s got the mixed girl accent going on! Interesting to hear about racism from a biracial perspective. Of course her dad is black...annoying self-hater he must be.
And what are you saying, but not saying? :/
Why does her fatherchavex2 be a self hater?.There are many same race relationships where one or both parties hate themselves, their lineage, how and where they were raised, their gene pool, and the list goes on.
It is possible that a black and white person can meet, fall in love and then get married without any of the reasons you've prescribed
I agee with her 100%.!
That last girl she talked about was probably better off going to a HBCU than a big White institution.

hearing the children's stories and trials r horrid!!!😥
Every thing I think but have trouble putting into words.
It is great to hear "the truth" being spoken about the African American experience. The facts will always make a difference for honest people.
Love your hair color and your look as well as your story. My experiences were very interesting also, being born in a small town in Missouri and attending a segregated school, all the while wondering why the black kids attended a different school. It got very complicated. The only thing that temporarily saved me was the local library. But viewfinders took me to Africa and the pandora box began to open. I made up my mind to go to Africa then. I did. Never wanted to come back. Couldn't stay. That was the downturn of my life. Coup de estat. Now I sit an old lady with a memories. of memories.
With a headful of memories.

Black history needs to be told. My high school education absolutely discussed in detail Black history including slavery, emancipation, Jim Crow and the Civil Rights movement. As for the 1619 Project, Hannah-Jones is more of an activist than a historian. Her work needs to examined and criticized for inaccuracies. Remember, the country was set up by White people to benefit White people. It shouldn't be a surprise that concerns for native Americans were swept aside. And African slaves were considered factors of production, not citizens. The story of slavery, as I learned, is much wider and encompasses much of the Americas. Brazil, by far, was the leading importer of slaves and North America was a much smaller market. And slavery was not widely used in the Northern States. Hannah-Jones is part of a movement to deconstruct early American mythology due to sins of racism. Our celebration of our country binds Americans together, creating cooperation, a shared destiny and harmony. We have a wonderful government that happened to be created by men who abused humans of African and Native origin. Yet tearing down statues mostly creates division. Instead, face our history and elevate historical heroes that are right in front of us: Lincoln and Martin Luther King.
Really?!? You end by offering more Lincoln & King? #speechless
Lincoln was cool but I wouldn't put him in the same category as Dr. King. Remember that Lincoln signed an amendment that allowed "peonage" to flourish after emancipation.
@@marquispatton8198 Historians have to look at the time frame. Lincoln lived in an age before mass media and his prejudices were typical for the time. What he accomplished was ending slavery. At least he's the best we have for the 19th century in terms of American heroes. I am a fan of MLK as well.
The "black history" you are being taught nowadays centers solely around eternal victimhood. What a sad mindset to put into black children's heads.
@@hellogoodbye4061 i agree. Thats why we need to learn more about successful forms of resistance.
Not only the fact they're segregated schools and promotions etc... but we see it, live it every day of our lives. Not only that, there are African American leading over these poor run Black and Brown communities, bad to unequal services, homeless, barely promoted, only one or two Blacks promoted in NYC.

Is there any point at which the Africans that captured those sold into the slave trad e, are held as culpable as the whites they were sold to? Is there any equality in the process of claiming victimization over practices that are all but gone? Is there any point at which it's recognized that any current semblance to oppression is correctly categorized as oppression toward the lack of wealth and not race, similar to every culture, ever? Is there any point, that u realize, after stating in this very speech, that every country/culture has marginalized people, that u realize, America is not this lone symbol of hate? Is it not obvious that "white privilege" is a myth in a country where the privilege for minorities is not only superior, but literally engrained into law? And finally, is reperations were given to a group, that has been obviously and provably crippled by victimization culture, government assistance, and fatherless homes, would that be the endpoint for the belly aching? It's simply not enough for white people to acknowledge the sins of the past, and never subjugate a single person of color, NO NO NO, this modern movement that promotes tribalism is hair lipped with anything less, than all whites hanging their heads in constant, verbally apologetic shame, for the sins of dead people. There is literally no point that this movement concedes that there's is not the worst plight of any on earth, and unlike every cringe against humanity, since the beginning of time, THIS ONE, real or imagined, is the sole act of treachery, for which the decedent's of the accused, must be held accountable in perpetuity. Never shall any dark spot in human history be able to rival the evil of those who, differentiate themselves from those long dead slave owners and Jim crow era folks. If a white human ever has the notion that his good character, and lack of bigotry throughout life, somehow constitute his innocence in relation to the crimes of dead people, he should be immediately fired from whatever employment, cancelled, beaten, and made to walk around the town square, spouting apologies constantly for the rest of eternity. Furthermore, if one suggests that any other descendants of enslaved people's, throughout history, whom happen to belong to a race without black skin, or those enslaved by anyone whom wasn't a white American, PROCLAIMS THAT HISTORY WAS SOMEHOW EQUALLY, OR SIMILARLY OPPRESSIVE TOWARDS THEM, they should immediately be labeled a racist, and made to commit suicide. It is unacceptable for those decedent's of this slave period, to be made to share the monicker, of SLAVE DESCENDANTS, with any other group, who's ancestors were enslaved. HOW DARE any individual shed light on the fact that EVERY RACE has endured slavery throughout time? The plight of today's black American, with laws that 100% SOLIDIFY equality of opportunity, and many that ensure equality of outcome, is the scourge of humanity. Here, in the U.S, black Americans should never be held to account for anything they do to that makes them less wealthy than their potential and access would otherwise guarantee. Because there are places that groups "stick together", and create communities of like minded individuals, whom on whole, act in similar fashion, it MUST BE ACKNOWLEDGED, that if these groups happen to be black, and not at the financial level of the most affluent groups, the differences in these groups ARE THE SOLE CREATION OF CURRENT OPPRESSION AND MADE TO SUFFER BY CALCULATED EVIL, WHITE DESIGN. Furthermore, every white individual in America, is known the world over, to congregate in like-skinned groups, from the age of 3mths to death, for the some purpose of plotting to devote maximum effort, not only to oppress blacks, but also to be trained in the covert bigotry to which they must be ever apologetic. It is the grand hope of all those progressive, that every white individual will accept his inherent treachery, and soon pay for his ancestors transgression,, AND THE RACISM THEY CURRENTLY, YET UNKNOWINGLY HARBOUR, BY DIRECT FINANCIAL PURGING. It is also unforgivable to suggest that it might be a better solution to remedy the fatherless home, crime, and lack of interest in education, that poisoned black culture, and became epidemic AT THE EXACT TIME THEY GAINED 100% LEGAL EQUALITY. One is on level with Adolph Hitler, if he points out the glaring oppression that these issues have on predicting success, desire race. He is equally evil if he suggests that if the blacks from 50's & 60's had a similar situation as blacks today, there would be 0 signs of desparity. Only a witch would point out, there are points in the history of all, that render the "bootstrap" montra valid. Black Americans are the most subjugated, oppressed people's currently on earth today, despite the fact, that most of them disagree, their loud minority must be given all the validity. The majority of blacks, whites, and the world, whom realize over coddling, victimization mentality, social justice warriors, and the need for Democrats to retain votes they don't deserve, and remain relevant, ARE NOT PLAUSIBLE CAUSES AND CONTRIBUTORS TO THE PLIGHT OF THE MOST WELL- OFF blacks on the planet. YES PEOPLE OF EARTH, to truly be progressive and a man of the times, you must disregard any common sensical notion that the rules of the world can be applied to the American black person, their plight in history has assured them, by doctrine of the progressives, immunity from reality and responsibility. While these rules should apply to everyone else in their strife to atone for the sins of the Dead, there is no larger bigot than he who attempts to apply any sanity to the plight of the black American. However many years pass, despite the good anyone's ancestor, or present-day compatriot does, one must never lose sight of his obligation to the American black. Literally nothing else matters, and this task, by design, can never be fulfilled. Those who are not black Americans can simply never, in a million years, atone for the transatlantic slave trade and the years of Jim Crow, for unlike any other tragedy the world has ever seen, this is the Paramount crime, and the only one on earth that must continue in perpetuity, by branding the ancestors of this atrocities design, as guilty as those whom they never knew indeed were. Let it also be known that financial compensation and the act of constant apologetic shame from all non-black Americans, is the goal, one would be racist to believe otherwise. One would be worthy of The gallows if they assumed that equality was possible by affording black Americans every opportunity and access point of any other, or that the obtainment of such and equal wealth to all other racial groups would suffice in removing the guilt from the ancestors of those who once protested it. One cannot ever assume that the rightful and logical goal of black Americans should be to work hard and Gain wealthy equality with all other races. No no, it is only right that The advocates of these policies expect and demand that you understand, the only acceptable path into eternity is for the Black American to be completely dependent upon the government and have the thrill of watching all other races in constant apologetic shame. NOTHING ELSE IS SUFFICIENT. To every non black American I beseech you, DO YOUR HOMEWORK, UNDERSTAND THAT ANYTHING IN HISTORY PERPETRATED BY WHITE PEOPLE, DESPITE WHAT YOU HAVE BEEN TOLD PREVIOUSLY, WAS IN DIRECT DESIGN, AN EFFORT TO SUBJUGATE THE BLACK AMERICAN, TO INCLUDE EFFORTS TO IMPROVE THEM, AND FOR SUCH YOU SHOULD BE EVER APOLOGETIC
I find that when I try to go back from 1619 everything becomes abstract. The fact remains that blacks were kidnapped and captured and taken to Europe, the Caribbean and America. In order to hold the oppressors responsible we MUST speak on the topics they cannot refute and what are evident. We have to keep passing down these stories to our children do that the history would not get lost by distraction by Religion, video games, sports, issues among political leaders etc but we MUST keep our focus on what matters to Blacks and what will empower them.
The light to God How did we get stuck with the monster we have in the white house? He and his kids?

A race grifter and it is sad that you bought into her grift hook, line and sinker.
Millions of us lost ancestors who died fighting to free the slaves during the civil war. We want reparations. Pay up.
When people talk of reparations, you and I agree. Everyone would be in line. Not one African American alive today was enslaved, and not one white American owned slaves. Everyone, white black, yellow, have someone in their past who was treated unfairly, killed, enslaved. They receive justice from God.
In 1619, there was no United States of America! Those that formed the
Colonies into a united entity saw slavery as wrong . . . which is why
the 'Declaration of Independence' was worded as it was.
While existing in an obviously racist environment, we had people
striving to make this new united from of government a kind of placed
where the rights of the people were predominant over the government
itself . . . a government of the people, by the people, and for the
people.
We see the roots of the elimination of slavery were in the minds of the
forefathers because, within almost 30 years of the founding of the
United States of America, it became illegal to import slaves from Africa
or the West Indies!
By the 1860's, America had a Civil War to eliminate slavery altogether .
. . and President Lincoln signed the 'Emancipation Proclamation' which
is no doubt part of the reason he was murdered by assassination by John
Wilkes Booth!
To think the United States is a racist nation is folly and ignorant of
the truth and reality . . . the '1619 Project' is more an attempt at
spreading reality in the form of half-truths and propaganda, than an
attempt at the spreading of enlightenment through education.
It is all to obvious that slaves were brought to North America well
before 1619 . . . but the originators of the '1619 Project' seem to have
forgotten who sold these slaves in the first place! It was from their
own people that gathered these slave up while still in Africa . . .
Africans sold their own people into slavery and these slaves went to
many places other than just to North America! But these 'truths' don't
fit the narrative of the '1619 Project' and will never be revealed by
them!
Ok shaniqua
Right. Trying to PROVE something is Futile to a person who 1) already KNOWS the truth and does not care and 2) who is Wicked and foolish and is intent on destruction

Woke people like Nikole think truth is a social construct made by white people to keep the black people oppressed.
One more thing and King expressed this before he was murdered! The Civil Rights Act of 1964 did not cost the government anything. One would think that the most logical and non-invasive approach to Jim Crow (which the term itself is condescending) would be to make a system of separate but equal which was vastly unequal, EQUAL. Or to at least make marked movements toward equality which could only happen at that time in a separate paradigm not integrating people behind the curve into those with excess. The only viable thing about the act that I agree with is public accommodation.
But not integration and integrated schools in-particular. The Civil Rights Act and integration was a scam to boot designed to quell any black identity movements and further fragment the mind and so-called black community. For the record, the hood and ghetto are not the black community, we don't have one because of integration. So this is the one thing I do not agree with this lovely and intelligent woman. DAMN integration! Reparations is a debt owed, cut the check!
Some people are still caring that ring thru the nose ????
