My Folks were immigrants, they didn't own anyone

EVERYTHING IN THIS OP HAPPENED AFTER SLAVERY AND IT GOES INTO OUR LIFETIMES!

ALL RISE!

This mornings lesson:

MY FOLKS WERE IMMIGRANTS, THEY DIDN'T OWN ANYONE!

After slavery, blacks were being killed by whites with no crimes charged while the Supreme Court basically repealed the 13th, 14th and 15th amendments with a series of rulings. Due the consistent state and federally protected barbaric acts by whites, southern blacks felt they had to go north. When blacks started moving north, southern business and government leaders enacted laws in order to stop free people from going where they could earn a decent living. But even under the threat of jail or death, millions of blacks headed north where they believe they'd be treated right. If they had known what was waiting up north, the migration would have ended in Canada.

As blacks went north they found that the only difference between a southern white and a northern one was geography. When blacks went north, so did lynchings. They are recorded as race riots, but the reality is that there were a series of massacres, bombings, lynchings and other acts of terror against blacks by whites due to the northern migration of blacks trying to escape massacres, bombings, lynchings and other acts of terror against blacks by whites in the south. Historians call what happened riots and this is why it’s so hilarious to listen to the disingenuous fake outrage of the racist white subculture about blacks and riots today.

On the evening of Saturday July 19th, 1919, in Washington D.C., a group of white veterans started a rumor about a black man suspected of sexually assaulting the wife of a white Navy man. This rumor spread throughout the bars and restaurants in downtown Washington D.C. Later that night, a mob of drunken mad white men headed to a predominantly black neighborhood carrying weapons. Those mad white men proceeded to beat all the blacks they found. They snatched blacks out of their cars or off sidewalks and beat them for no reason. Where were the police? I think they had donut shops back then, but I am not sure. The violence continued into Sunday because the D.C. Metro Police failed to stop it. Random blacks got beat down on the streets of Washington. This even happened in front of the White House.

The Omaha Race Riot occurred on September 28–29, 1919. Three conditions: black property acquisition, economic anxiety and claims of black male sexual aggression, have been the general standard for white violence against blacks throughout American history. The Omaha Riots met at least 2 of the 3 conditions. The lynching of Will Brown was started by reports in local media about the alleged rape of a woman on September 25, 1919. The following day the police arrested Brown. Brown was blamed for the rape without the victim making a positive identification. There was an attempt to lynch Brown on the day of his arrest, but it failed.

The Omaha Bee publicized the incident claiming it was part of a series of alleged attacks on white women by black men in Omaha. The Bee was controlled by Thomas Rosewater who was a friends with a man named Thomas Dennison. Dennison ran a political machine that controlled Omaha at that time. To be blunt, Dennison was a crook. He controlled Omaha for 18 years before the city elected a non-Dennison flunky for mayor. His name was Edward Smith. Denison did not like that, so to make Smith look bad, Dennisons men ran amuck throughout the town wearing blackface while assaulting women and blamed blacks for it. These incidents were orchestrated by Dennison and Rosewaters paper pumped up the fake news. So thanks to his buddy at the Omaha Bee, Dennison and his friends race baited the people of Omaha and incited the Omaha Riots. On the night of the lynching, Omaha Police even caught one of Dennisons men wearing blackface. Dennison nor any of his associates were charged or convicted for what they did. Will Brown was not so fortunate. Brown was lynched, shot up after he was dead, dragged through the streets of Omaha and set on fire. He had committed no crime.

White mob violence did not end in 1919. One of the worst acts of domestic terrorism in America happened in two days of American history beginning on May 31st, 1921 in Tulsa Oklahoma. This is better known as “The Tulsa Massacre.” One may as well say this was an act of war waged on the black citizens of Tulsa Oklahoma by white citizens. I say this because not only were blacks attacked on the ground they were attacked by air. In a manner best described by the scene of Ben Richards being told to shoot the people during a food riot in “The Running Man”, whites in private planes flew over the black community shooting down on blacks and firebombing black homes and businesses.

“I could see planes circling in mid-air. They grew in number and hummed, darted and dipped low. I could hear something like hail falling upon the top of my office building. Down East Archer, I saw the old Mid-Way hotel on fire, burning from its top, and then another and another and another building began to burn from their top,”


B.C. Franklin

The excuse by city law enforcement officials was that the planes were reconnaissance used to protect against a Negro uprising. Still today, an accurate accounting of the number of dead varies. More than 6,000 people were either admitted to hospitals or sent to other large facilities for care. More than 10,000 blacks were left homeless. The bombings and ground attacks destroyed 35 city blocks of Tulsa, resulting in damages that equaled over 32 million dollars in today’s money. None of the victims or their descendants have been compensated for this act of terror to this day. Pretty soon blacks in Tulsa will have to hear that sad, sorry song that starts with, “I was not alive then.”

I just don’t think people really understand just exactly how bad things have been for blacks after leaving Africa when they start trying to blame blacks for the slave trade or slave ownership. I am waiting for the day somebody white tries to say that blacks created the black codes, sundown towns and Jim Crow. This is the state of the madness here in America at this time. Whites have complained about political correctness and yet when political incorrectness is applied to them, suddenly things must be forgotten, revised, altered or kept quiet.

On December 23, 1945, Mr. and Mrs. H. O’Day Short and their 2 children were burned to death in Fontana California. The description of this was; “A fire of incendiary origions set by persons who did not want them to move into the white community.” Before they were murdered the family was threatened and got no protection from the police. According to the report, the Shorts had no electricity and was using gas lamps at the time they moved in. This was supposed to be temporary. While the Shorts were out of the house, people broke in, sprayed the house with a flammable chemical and when the Shorts got home and started lighting their lamps, the house went up in flames.

For the first 5 years after WW2 in Chicago alone, there were 357 acts of terror by whites against blacks who tried living in or near majority white neighborhoods. In 1951 a black man named Harvey Clark and his family tried to move into the Cicero neighborhood of Chicago. A white mob vandalized his home the burned his furniture. Aside from trying to force Clark out of his own home, the police did nothing. In first six months of 1955 there were 213 acts of violence against blacks by whites is Philadelphia. These were acts of terror committed to intimidate blacks so they would not move into white communities. In 1964 when blacks again tried renting an apartment in Cicero, their apartment was again vandalized. After the apartment was vandalized, police entered the apartment, took out the furniture and told the renters they had been evicted. At the same time, in Detroit there were over 200 acts of violence against blacks by whites to terrorize black families so they would not move to the suburbs. From 1950-1965 there were over 100 bombings of black owned residences in Los Angeles. In 1987, another black family tried moving into Cicero. Whites responded with gunfire and firebombs.

This kind of terrorism has gone long ignored in understanding the brutality and long-lasting effects of such acts upon blacks in America. For decades prosperous blacks were terrorized while black communities were destroyed by mobs of angry whites who felt they were losing out because blacks had acquired the same things whites had. Ignored was the fact that blacks worked hard to get what they had, but that did not matter because blacks were to always be lesser than whites and the caste was to be created and maintained by any means necessary.

Blacks peacefully moved north to compete for same opportunities white immigrants had and this is just a small bit of what happened. White immigrants are the ones who committed the violence against blacks. White immigrants destroyed thriving black communities. The same white immigrants whose descendants tell us today how they are not responsible because their ancestors did not own slaves.

I’m surprised there are blacks still living in the USA. I mean after all the MILLIONS of blacks massacred and lynched by whites, there must be only a few left.
 
What's the purpose of the story in the OP? To agitate Racial Discord in the 21st Century?

How does this help the country? How does it help black people to stir up hatred for the Honky?

The facts are, regardless of the accuracy, or lack thereof, of the OP's spin on history, that black folks need to work with the white people if they are going to progress. Generating the violence of groups like the Black Panther who call for the death of "cracker babies" really doesn't help ordinary black people.
To state the mother fucking facts.


Its also a fact about the Long Island Railroad shooting in 1993, when blacks shot up a bunch of honkies on a train.

Should that be taught as well, and made a big deal about- it happened as well.

It'd be fun is you were smart enough to formulate your own thoughts but, sadly, we know that's not the case...

You don't want to do that white boy. You won't like what you see.

What we'll see is Colin Ferguson, a piece of shit negro with a gun, killed six people and wounded 19 (if memory serves). Ferguson was a black separatist. He had no interest in coexisting with whites.

His first possible parole date is in the year 2309.

That pleases me...
 
After slavery, blacks were being killed by whites with no crimes charged
Who has killed more blacks?
A) White slave owners
or
B) Other blacks

I’m certain you have the numbers...please share before we go any further because we swear, we really want to take you seriously.
Slave owners did not kill blacks. Black lives mattered then.

DEATH TOLL FROM THE SLAVE TRADE​

THE AFRICAN HOLOCAUST

60 MILLION DEAD AT THE HANDS
OF WHITE CHRISTIAN IMPERIALISM

The largest slave trade in the history of the world was created by white Christian Europeans. Before it was over as many as 60 million Africans would be killed for the profit of white Christian imperialism. A key reason for the high death toll was the tidal wave of war and desolation that the slave trade unleashed into the heart of Africa. Huge numbers of people died being marched to the coasts of Africa from the interior as well as in an endless series of wars produced by the quest for new slaves. Millions more would die in concentration camps at both ends of the sea journey, and significant numbers would die due to the appalling conditions on the slave ships.

The financial profits of this slave trade helped build the economic foundations of America. It was not just the south. Northern business interests made huge profits too. (This is how every American benefited from slavery in America. Whether your ancestors owned slaves or not)

I was talking about American slave owners.. Dead animals only have more value if you want to eat them,
 
History is the written account of human events which serve to remind us of both the good, bad, and ugly truths of our past. Learn from it don’t dwell in it. We as a nation have progressed along ways since 1919. To focus on prior events with the intent to politicize, polarize, and divide the nation is nothing more than a smoke screen designed to cover ones tracks. It’s a sad fact that the history of racism sits firmly on the mantle of the Democratic Party which is why they attempt to deflect that little known fact out of the equation.
 
More race baiting tripe.
Predictable, repetitive and quite frankly, old and boring.
Think I will move on from this daily trainwreck.
You can't face the truth.

Fuckin' blue-gum flappin' his lips about "truth".

Here's IM2's problem: As much as he whines about white supremacy, he is loathe to admit that he supports black supremacy.

He is not at all interested in equality. He is not at all interested in reparations.

He wants whites to suffer as negroes have suffered in this country. He doesn't want reparations, he wants revenge.

Make no mistake, he is the absolute worst type of racist there is...

These were acts of terror committed to intimidate blacks so they would not move into white communities. In 1964 when blacks again tried renting an apartment in Cicero, their apartment was again vandalized. After the apartment was vandalized, police entered the apartment, took out the furniture and told the renters they had been evicted. At the same time, in Detroit there were over 200 acts of violence against blacks by whites to terrorize black families so they would not move to the suburbs. From 1950-1965 there were over 100 bombings of black owned residences in Los Angeles. In 1987, another black family tried moving into Cicero. Whites responded with gunfire and firebombs.

This kind of terrorism has gone long ignored in understanding the brutality and long-lasting effects of such acts upon blacks in America. For decades prosperous blacks were terrorized while black communities were destroyed by mobs of angry whites who felt they were losing out because blacks had acquired the same things whites had. Ignored was the fact that blacks worked hard to get what they had, but that did not matter because blacks were to always be lesser than whites and the caste was to be created and maintained by any means necessary.

Blacks peacefully moved north to compete for same opportunities white immigrants had and this is just a small bit of what happened. White immigrants are the ones who committed the violence against blacks. White immigrants destroyed thriving black communities. The same white immigrants whose descendants tell us today how they are not responsible because their ancestors did not own slaves.

VERY VERY unlikely...at one point 3/4 of the worlds population belonged to someone else. The odds would be against you not having ancestors that were owners and the owned.
It's very likely and this thread nor the OP has anything to do with slavery. That old tired whitebread excuse has no merit.
No IM2...it isn't....at one point in time, 3/4 of the worlds population belonged to someone else.....to not have any ancestors that weren't enslaving others----you would have to be a full blooded island or other isolated group that just happened to not enslave their own--which was very rare.

This is especially true for any African ancestory as even by ancient romans standards---africa was the worst of the worst for enslaving others.
 
ALL RISE!

This mornings lesson:

MY FOLKS WERE IMMIGRANTS, THEY DIDN'T OWN ANYONE!

After slavery, blacks were being killed by whites with no crimes charged while the Supreme Court basically repealed the 13th, 14th and 15th amendments with a series of rulings. Due the consistent state and federally protected barbaric acts by whites, southern blacks felt they had to go north. When blacks started moving north, southern business and government leaders enacted laws in order to stop free people from going where they could earn a decent living. But even under the threat of jail or death, millions of blacks headed north where they believe they'd be treated right. If they had known what was waiting up north, the migration would have ended in Canada.

As blacks went north they found that the only difference between a southern white and a northern one was geography. When blacks went north, so did lynchings. They are recorded as race riots, but the reality is that there were a series of massacres, bombings, lynchings and other acts of terror against blacks by whites due to the northern migration of blacks trying to escape massacres, bombings, lynchings and other acts of terror against blacks by whites in the south. Historians call what happened riots and this is why it’s so hilarious to listen to the disingenuous fake outrage of the racist white subculture about blacks and riots today.

On the evening of Saturday July 19th, 1919, in Washington D.C., a group of white veterans started a rumor about a black man suspected of sexually assaulting the wife of a white Navy man. This rumor spread throughout the bars and restaurants in downtown Washington D.C. Later that night, a mob of drunken mad white men headed to a predominantly black neighborhood carrying weapons. Those mad white men proceeded to beat all the blacks they found. They snatched blacks out of their cars or off sidewalks and beat them for no reason. Where were the police? I think they had donut shops back then, but I am not sure. The violence continued into Sunday because the D.C. Metro Police failed to stop it. Random blacks got beat down on the streets of Washington. This even happened in front of the White House.

The Omaha Race Riot occurred on September 28–29, 1919. Three conditions: black property acquisition, economic anxiety and claims of black male sexual aggression, have been the general standard for white violence against blacks throughout American history. The Omaha Riots met at least 2 of the 3 conditions. The lynching of Will Brown was started by reports in local media about the alleged rape of a woman on September 25, 1919. The following day the police arrested Brown. Brown was blamed for the rape without the victim making a positive identification. There was an attempt to lynch Brown on the day of his arrest, but it failed.

The Omaha Bee publicized the incident claiming it was part of a series of alleged attacks on white women by black men in Omaha. The Bee was controlled by Thomas Rosewater who was a friends with a man named Thomas Dennison. Dennison ran a political machine that controlled Omaha at that time. To be blunt, Dennison was a crook. He controlled Omaha for 18 years before the city elected a non-Dennison flunky for mayor. His name was Edward Smith. Denison did not like that, so to make Smith look bad, Dennisons men ran amuck throughout the town wearing blackface while assaulting women and blamed blacks for it. These incidents were orchestrated by Dennison and Rosewaters paper pumped up the fake news. So thanks to his buddy at the Omaha Bee, Dennison and his friends race baited the people of Omaha and incited the Omaha Riots. On the night of the lynching, Omaha Police even caught one of Dennisons men wearing blackface. Dennison nor any of his associates were charged or convicted for what they did. Will Brown was not so fortunate. Brown was lynched, shot up after he was dead, dragged through the streets of Omaha and set on fire. He had committed no crime.

White mob violence did not end in 1919. One of the worst acts of domestic terrorism in America happened in two days of American history beginning on May 31st, 1921 in Tulsa Oklahoma. This is better known as “The Tulsa Massacre.” One may as well say this was an act of war waged on the black citizens of Tulsa Oklahoma by white citizens. I say this because not only were blacks attacked on the ground they were attacked by air. In a manner best described by the scene of Ben Richards being told to shoot the people during a food riot in “The Running Man”, whites in private planes flew over the black community shooting down on blacks and firebombing black homes and businesses.

“I could see planes circling in mid-air. They grew in number and hummed, darted and dipped low. I could hear something like hail falling upon the top of my office building. Down East Archer, I saw the old Mid-Way hotel on fire, burning from its top, and then another and another and another building began to burn from their top,”


B.C. Franklin

The excuse by city law enforcement officials was that the planes were reconnaissance used to protect against a Negro uprising. Still today, an accurate accounting of the number of dead varies. More than 6,000 people were either admitted to hospitals or sent to other large facilities for care. More than 10,000 blacks were left homeless. The bombings and ground attacks destroyed 35 city blocks of Tulsa, resulting in damages that equaled over 32 million dollars in today’s money. None of the victims or their descendants have been compensated for this act of terror to this day. Pretty soon blacks in Tulsa will have to hear that sad, sorry song that starts with, “I was not alive then.”

I just don’t think people really understand just exactly how bad things have been for blacks after leaving Africa when they start trying to blame blacks for the slave trade or slave ownership. I am waiting for the day somebody white tries to say that blacks created the black codes, sundown towns and Jim Crow. This is the state of the madness here in America at this time. Whites have complained about political correctness and yet when political incorrectness is applied to them, suddenly things must be forgotten, revised, altered or kept quiet.

On December 23, 1945, Mr. and Mrs. H. O’Day Short and their 2 children were burned to death in Fontana California. The description of this was; “A fire of incendiary origions set by persons who did not want them to move into the white community.” Before they were murdered the family was threatened and got no protection from the police. According to the report, the Shorts had no electricity and was using gas lamps at the time they moved in. This was supposed to be temporary. While the Shorts were out of the house, people broke in, sprayed the house with a flammable chemical and when the Shorts got home and started lighting their lamps, the house went up in flames.

For the first 5 years after WW2 in Chicago alone, there were 357 acts of terror by whites against blacks who tried living in or near majority white neighborhoods. In 1951 a black man named Harvey Clark and his family tried to move into the Cicero neighborhood of Chicago. A white mob vandalized his home the burned his furniture. Aside from trying to force Clark out of his own home, the police did nothing. In first six months of 1955 there were 213 acts of violence against blacks by whites is Philadelphia.

All rise? So you fancy yourself some sort of Racial supreme judge? All you do is spew hatred for White people and Black "sellouts" who speak the truth about MANUFACTURED systemic racism.
 
OldLady No honey that isn't how slavery worked. Like with illegals, slavery depressed wages for those working for a living. Most free people therefore would have also suffered with lower wages and fewer opportunities due to slavery.
 
LilOlLady Oh gawd the stupidity...........it was actually catholic spaniards that were the big slavers...most of the slaves found their way to spanish colonies such as found in central and south america. Americans took very few of the slaves...

White mob violence is alive and well, funded by the DemoKKKrat party and promoted by the white leftist corporate media.

Every one of my ancestors that I can find was here before 1700 and none of them owned slaves, but every person living in America benefitted from the fruits of slavery. And in 1964, everyone of my living relatives lived in an all white neighborhood and thought black people smelled funny. They were all scared to death about their property values. 1970, not a single black kid in my high school. Not one.

I don't recall any violence toward blacks around where I lived, but the welcome in the north wasn't a warm one. IM2 is right about that.

Yeah....it's funny how dems call the south racist yet the north is even worse.
I converse with a lot of black people that have moved to Texas from the northeast for job opportunities and they concur. They face less racism here than they did up north.
The south had/has that weird patriarchal vibe going on; blacks being among them is normal, but blacks are seen as recalcitrant children, not so smart and likely to cause trouble, but part of the family (sometimes literally).

Having never lived in the south or having any southern relatives, I base my understanding on Faulkner.

I dont see the children part.
There are a lot of black southerners that are considered rednecks,they ride rodeo,they farm and raise cattle just like the whites do.
We dont see them as any different than we are.
Now if they ride around blasting rap music in clapped out cars with no inspection sticker we treat em the same as we would white trash that does the same.
That's cool.
 
OldLady No honey that isn't how slavery worked. Like with illegals, slavery depressed wages for those working for a living. Most free people therefore would have also suffered with lower wages and fewer opportunities due to slavery.
I was thinking of the fruits of their labor. The sugar plantations gave us far northeners molasses to make rum, cotton to supply our mills and clothing manufacturers. That kind of thing. Since my folks come from a state that outlawed slavery in 1783, and is to hell and gone from the south, I don't think slavery had a lot of impact on wages here.
 
LilOlLady Oh gawd the stupidity...........it was actually catholic spaniards that were the big slavers...most of the slaves found their way to spanish colonies such as found in central and south america. Americans took very few of the slaves...
All Americans have benefited from hundreds of years of slavery through the government that allowed it. Slaves built this country. Descendants of slaves need to be paid reparation. Just as Natives were paid.

Aside from trying to force Clark out of his own home, the police did nothing. In first six months of 1955 there were 213 acts of violence against blacks by whites is Philadelphia. These were acts of terror committed to intimidate blacks so they would not move into white communities. In 1964 when blacks again tried renting an apartment in Cicero, their apartment was again vandalized. After the apartment was vandalized, police entered the apartment, took out the furniture and told the renters they had been evicted. At the same time, in Detroit there were over 200 acts of violence against blacks by whites to terrorize black families so they would not move to the suburbs. From 1950-1965 there were over 100 bombings of black owned residences in Los Angeles. In 1987, another black family tried moving into Cicero. Whites responded with gunfire and firebombs.

This kind of terrorism has gone long ignored in understanding the brutality and long-lasting effects of such acts upon blacks in America. For decades prosperous blacks were terrorized while black communities were destroyed by mobs of angry whites who felt they were losing out because blacks had acquired the same things whites had. Ignored was the fact that blacks worked hard to get what they had, but that did not matter because blacks were to always be lesser than whites and the caste was to be created and maintained by any means necessary.

Blacks peacefully moved north to compete for same opportunities white immigrants had and this is just a small bit of what happened. White immigrants are the ones who committed the violence against blacks. White immigrants destroyed thriving black communities. The same white immigrants whose descendants tell us today how they are not responsible because their ancestors did not own slaves.

White mob violence is alive and well, funded by the DemoKKKrat party and promoted by the white leftist corporate media.

This is an interesting illustration and observation.

When MLK got whacked back in the 1968, all of the Riots that were held were mostly just black people getting involved and usually just in the American Ghettos.

The modern day riots that were scheduled and performed had unprecedented numbers of White People involved in the burning and looting.

Shows just how far this country has come in the last half century.
 
All Americans have benefited from hundreds of years of slavery through the government that allowed it. Slaves built this country. Descendants of slaves need to be paid reparation. Just as Natives were paid.
Slaves didn't build this country. Even the money derived from the products of slavery didn't build this country. The slave states produced low value raw materials that were exported mostly to European countries. What built this country was the labor of free immigrants who mostly settled in the port cities of the North and provided the expendable fuel for the factories that actually fueled the growth of this country.
 
History is the written account of human events which serve to remind us of both the good, bad, and ugly truths of our past. Learn from it don’t dwell in it. We as a nation have progressed along ways since 1919. To focus on prior events with the intent to politicize, polarize, and divide the nation is nothing more than a smoke screen designed to cover ones tracks. It’s a sad fact that the history of racism sits firmly on the mantle of the Democratic Party which is why they attempt to deflect that little known fact out of the equation.
Shut the fuck up. We're talking about the present and America has not progressed enough for us a blacks to be satisfied. You whites aren't satisfied with things now, and you have been given everything by government decree. The sad fact of history is the lie republicans today try pushing about democratic racism. Today thhe republican party is the racist party and the fact that we still have politicians pandering to racists is evidence that we have not progressed far enough.
