The Secret Racist History of the Democratic Party

[ptbw forever]

No. I am saying a mirror image scenario illustrates how stupid it is to accuse Trump of being a white supremacist just because pro-white activists like him more than the typical anti-white politicians.

Obama was in a racist church for 20 years and you assholes defended that part of his life like it was acceptable and normal while daring to accuse Obama's opponents of being racist for saying something about it.

Racist church ? What did rev wright say that was so racist anyway?

Look up "Black Liberation theology".

What's "racist" about Black liberation theology?

What isn't racist about it?

Do you think white people would be able to run a white nationalist oriented church network without it being called "racist" by everyone?

Black liberation theology isn't "black nationalist".

Bullshit.

Black nationalism is mainstream in nearly every facet of the black community, much less black power churches, where it all began.

You don't even have a clue how stupid you are.

The same idiots who irrationally fear white student unions in increasingly non-white universities are defending blatantly racist black and brown institutions out of pure guilt and genuine fear of said institutions.

The Republican Party, which had never won the South since 1872, suddenly,

AFTER the passage of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 by liberal Democrats, has won the South almost every election since.

You'll never understand it. You can't even figure out which state to pretend you're from.

18 Democrats tried to filibuster it and prevent a vote.

.

When the bill came before the full Senate for debate on March 30, 1964, the "Southern Bloc" of 18 southern Democratic Senators and one Republican Senator led by Richard Russell (D-GA) launched a filibuster to prevent its passage.[14] Said Russell: "We will resist to the bitter end any measure or any movement which would have a tendency to bring about social equality and intermingling and amalgamation of the races in our (Southern) states."[15]

The most fervent opposition to the bill came from Senator Strom Thurmond (D-SC): "This so-called Civil Rights Proposals, which the President has sent to Capitol Hill for enactment into law, are unconstitutional, unnecessary, unwise and extend beyond the realm of reason. This is the worst civil-rights package ever presented to the Congress and is reminiscent of the Reconstruction proposals and actions of the radical Republican Congress."[16]

After 54 days of filibuster, Senators Everett Dirksen (R-IL), Thomas Kuchel (R-CA), Hubert Humphrey (D-MN), and Mike Mansfield (D-MT) introduced a substitute bill that they hoped would attract enough Republican swing votes to end the filibuster. The compromise bill was weaker than the House version in regard to government power to regulate the conduct of private business, but it was not so weak as to cause the House to reconsider the legislation.[17]

On the morning of June 10, 1964, Senator Robert Byrd (D-W.Va.) completed a filibustering address that he had begun 14 hours and 13 minutes earlier opposing the legislation. Until then, the measure had occupied the Senate for 57 working days, including six Saturdays. A day earlier, Democratic Whip Hubert Humphrey of Minnesota, the bill's manager, concluded he had the 67 votes required at that time to end the debate and end the filibuster. With six wavering senators providing a four-vote victory margin, the final tally stood at 71 to 29. Never in history had the Senate been able to muster enough votes to cut off a filibuster on a civil rights bill. And only once in the 37 years since 1927 had it agreed to cloture for any measure.[18]

Civil Rights Act of 1964 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia​

I think your whole point is that the Republicans have NEVER done things to hurt the minorities as have the democrats. Yes, when LBJ saw that the blacks were gaining in numbers he saw that he had to give the uppity.....n......s a little something, and did, with Republican help.

So your position is that the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and the Voting Rights Act of 1965 were NOT good legislation that righted wrongs and advanced equal rights,

they were just bad pieces of legislation that served no purpose other than to score some political points...?????

Whew, that's at least honest.

WTF is wrong with your cognizant abilities?

The point is that EVERY civil rights act since the reformation passed because of Republican support. EVERY ONE. The value of those acts i will let you judge. But as to the 1964 and 65 LBJ had to drag his own party kicking and screaming to support.

Northern Republican support as well as NORTHERN Democrat support....EVERY ONE. The only Republican in the South in 1964-65 voted against the Civil Rights Act.

Thanks for confirming that the Republicans supported the bill. You failed to note that KKK Robert Byrd, democrat, filibustered the bill.

The real question is whatever happened to all those racist Democrats, did they see the light, leave the country, or perhaps they changed parties as so many history books say they did?
If they changed parties from the Democratic party, what party could they possibly have gone to? What a mystery.

What history book? Your appeal to authority is noted but could you name the book?

You can provide all the facts in the world and those brain-dead dedicated members of this party will claim they are lies. Or, “this was all in the past.” So, if you don't want to know the truth, just pass on by.

One of the most vivid examples of collusion between the KKK and Democratic Party was when Democrat Senator Wade Hampton ran for the governorship of South Carolina in 1876. The Klan put into action a battle plan to help Democrats win, stating: “Every Democrat must feel honor bound to control the vote of at least one Negro by intimidation…. Democrats must go in as large numbers…and well-armed.” An issue of Harper’s Weekly that same year illustrated this mindset with a depiction of two white Democrats standing next to a black man while pointing a gun at him. At the bottom of the depiction is a caption that reads: “Of Course He Wants To Vote The Democratic Ticket!”

You know long knife , the us army also has a history of racism . You still think it's the same today ?

Of course Not. And yes, it was a Democrat who desegregated the military, President Harry Truman from a segregated state
