The city should cut all ties with those idiots.

Their insanity is going to get them into some serious trouble. They actually seem to believe their own rhetoric and when the day comes that they decide they can impose their will on the rest of us, they are going to wake very quickly to a grim reality.

 

[Who_Me?]

Here, Let me whip a little white guilt on ya.

The city should cut all ties with those idiots.

Charlotte is a minority-majority city with 35% of the population being black. Good luck with that.

They have supported the producers of the highest quality work. There is no indication whatsoever that the Opera, the Symphony the Ballet company, or any of them did not invite the artistic contributions of POC's.

When any line is drawn that discriminates between the best work and everything else, it is likely that African Americans will be statistically under-represented in the select group. Racial prejudice has nothing to do with it.

I guess I should see more opera and ballet before they're driven out of existence.

The sheer amount of woke dumbfuckery is becoming mind numbing.

However, the benefit is, to know who to absolutely AVOID.

What's an "African American?" Is that like someone who was born in Africa and has duel citizenship?

Or do you just mean blacks? It's OK, you can call them blacks. Hell they call each other ni**er.

duel citizenship?

I don't see nothing wrong funding BLM Work Shop on how to be a good Marxist, Learn the Ebonics Language, How to loot and get away with it, Be a 24/7 Victim, Live off Others Earning, How to Attack Police and be Right. How to murder police and walk free. There are a lot more suggestions I have that follow the strike guide lines of the democRat party.

Without Whitey music or any art would not exist. I think it was Miles Davis who said the Black form of jazz was basically European classical music without sheet music.

 

[RoshawnMarkwees]

Black segregationists need to exterminate themselves for speaking English.

Black segregationists need to exterminate themselves for speaking English.

Yes, the cultural appropriation is theft. They should also remove clothing and start wearing shrubbery,and quit driving cars, and living in buildings.

Are they going to fund twerking?

/——/ The Art group should disband and turn their center into a BLM headquarters and orgy palace, if they are truly sorry.

 

[EvilCat Breath]

Whites should stop funding these organizations and form their own.
