Baldwin was a racist. Why would anyone take his drivel serious?

Then they ought to act like [humans].

Here are a few white bashing quotes by James Baldwin...just another racist black

"...the Western party is over, and the white man's sun has set. Period."

"The terrible thing about being white is that whatever you do is irrelevant.
Play your games, dance your waltzes, shoot your guns, fly your helicopters,
murder your natives. It's all been done."

"If you are born under the circumstances in which Black people are born, the
destruction of the Christian churches may not only be desirable but necessary."

"The world is white no longer, and it will never be white again."

"The American Negro has the great advantage of having never believed
that collection of myths to which white Americans cling: that their ancestors
were all freedom loving heroes, that they were born in the greatest country
the world has ever seen, or that Americans are invincible in battle, and
wise in peace, that Americans have always dealt honorably with Mexicans
and Indians and all other neighbors and inferiors, that American men are
the world's most direct and virile, that American women are pure."

Teapers are racists...who takes your drivel seriously.

Fucking teapers....why is African American so bad...but Irish pride so accepted you race baiting, hateful hag.

Teaper hypocrites....START YOUR FUCKING WAR ALREADY. Fill the streets with your blood and call yourselves martyrs....I am tired of listening to your hate and nonsense.

Teapers say worst, but you never have a problem with their hate speech, you Irish racist POS.

 

[Luddly Neddite]

He was correct. Just as he was correct in just about everything else he said.

Related - Most of that could be said about feminism as well: women want to be treated like humans. EQUAL humans.

Same with marriage equality.

Key word: EQUAL.

And those are just as threatening as people of color wanting equality.

 

[JakeStarkey]

Baldwin was right, and the teaper racists are wrong.

James Baldwin is a great writer, read him sometime. Here is my favorite quote of his and another more telling comment.

"White children, in the main, and whether they are rich or poor, grow up with a grasp of reality so feeble that they can very accurately be described as deluded--about themselves and the world they live in. White people have managed to get through their entire lifetimes in this euphoric state, but black people have not been so lucky: a black man who sees the world the way John Wayne, for example, sees it would not be an eccentric patriot, but a raving maniac." James Baldwin

"...One did not have to be very bright to realize how little one could do to change one’s situation; one did not have to be abnormally sensitive to be worn down to a cutting edge by the incessant and gratuitous humiliation and danger one encountered every working day, all day long. The humiliation did not apply merely to working days, or workers; I was thirteen and was crossing Fifth Avenue on my way to the Forty-second Street library, and the cop in the middle of the street muttered as I passed him, “Why don’t you nig/gers stay uptown where you belong?” When I was ten, and didn’t look, certainly, any older, two policemen amused themselves with me by frisking me, making comic (and terrifying) speculations concerning my ancestry and probable sexual prowess, and, for good measure, leaving me flat on my back in one of Harlem’s empty lots. Just before and then during the Second World War, many of my friends fled into the service, all to be changed there, and rarely for the better, many to be ruined, and many to die. Others fled to other states and cities—that is, to other ghettos. Some went on wine or whiskey or the needle, and are still on it. And others, like me, fled into the church."
