Happy Jim Crow Songs

[rdean]

What I don't get and what they are spinning is Phil was talking directly to his experience working in the fields.

There's no spinning.

Phil's got the luxury of time to really know what went on.

And instead of really thinking about it, he spews this crapola about "blacks being happy" under Jim Crowe.

What he miss the lynchings? The church burnings? The murders of civil rights workers?

It was a despicable comment.

You just did the spinning Sallow.
He did not say they were happy under Jim Crowe laws.
He said they were Godly people and happy to have a job to support their family.

Pre-entitlement, pre-welfare, you say: Were they happy? They were godly; they were happy; no one was singing the blues.”

He is saying they were better off before Government entitlements and welfare, which has broken the Black Man's responsibility to home and family. He did not refer to the Jim Crowe laws at all.

Since they lived under Jim Crowe laws, were they happy or not?

That's right, Blues music skipped Jim Crowe.



Reality is, back in the days of Jim Crowe there wasn't many ways to complain except through song! And the racist is clearly talking about Jim Crowe as the time "before government entitlements."

Lets see, which party was it who elected a known member of the KKK for LIFE?

the left/progressives are shameless with their lies all for their agenda in Politics

 

[PredFan]

Again I'm enjoying the wailing and gnashing of teeth from the lefties at getting butthurt over the victory of free expression and faith over the tyranny of the minority.

The left wing butthurt marches on.

I think that in rural farm areas it wasn't as bad as in the cities.
Dems just went from Slavery to Jim Crowe Laws and then to welfare laws. They are still under that plantation and are being controlled.


“I’ll have those ******* voting Democratic for the next 200 years.” —Lyndon B. Johnson to two governors on Air Force One -

“These Negroes, they’re getting pretty uppity these days and that’s a problem for us since they’ve got something now they never had before, the political pull to back up their uppityness. Now we’ve got to do something about this, we’ve got to give them a little something, just enough to quiet them down, not enough to make a difference.”—LBJ

They were happier before entitlements and welfare that has broken the family unit.
