President Trump said recently that soon they will be taking down memorials of Washington and Jefferson. Well, they're doing it. In the very church that the father of our country attended. The man who courageously and brilliantly commanded our revolutionary army in the 1770s and 1780s, against the most powerful military force in the world at that time (Great Britain), and created our nation, now isn't considered worthy to have his memorial stand in the church he once attended.
Churchgoers there now are removing statues in the church of Robert E. Lee and Washington both. Church leaders say this is intended to make the place of worship "more welcoming". I would see it as exactly the opposite. Any church that would remove a statue memorial of our first president and valiant war hero, would not deserve my patronage. I'd quit going there.
This is quite revealing. It's yet another example of how some blacks in our society define themselves. And that is of not BEING part of our society. While black civil rights leaders are always calling for acceptance, and integration with the mainstream society, they are consistently coming up with ways to separate themselves from it. They really don't seem to want to be a part of the society around them as it has always been, hw our ancestors brought it to be.
In addition to removal of statues and monuments that have stood for a century or more, current generation blacks (some of them) give names to their kids that sound foreign to most Americans. The act of being different is no accident. It's a deliberate act of separation. Likewise with rap "music", patterns of speech, and even the moronic low pants wearing custom.
Current day blacks no longer need to decide if they want to be part of mainstream America. They have clearly decided. They don't. And all the high and mighty derisions of white nationalism, might be viewed in conjunction with all the black nationalism we see, much more prevalently.
