Pay Real Close Attention to This Right Wingers

It doesn't, but it's interesting to note that when you see the various presentations of authors, groups, politicians etc, you always come away feeling like the U.S. are the only ones guilty of the practice of slavery. It's not until you dig down that you discover that the U.S. played a minor role WHEN YOU COMPARE what went on south of our border.
So, it's all about your feelings? That's just nuts. We should feel bad about what happened here. Who thinks that slavery only happened in the US? What happened here had a direct impact on the slaves here, and their descendants with resulting repercussions that are still evident today. What happened somewhere else doesn't absolve the US for what we did as a country and doesn't minimize the harm done here. Only a childishly blithering idiot would possibly think it could.

The old timey racist Democrats were the conservative wing of that party. The Trumptards ignore this fact, as if those old timey racists had anything in common with the modern Democrats who believe in civil rights, universal health care, bigger and bigger central government, gay rights, gun control, and trans rights.

I mean, just how fucking STOOPID does one have to be to attempt to make some kind of connection between the two.

"Derpderpderp, duhhhhhh, yeahbut Klan DEMOCRATS!"

The Klan was, is, and always will be far right Christian terrorists. And boy do the fucking idiots hate hearing THAT.
 
The democrat party sure is the party of racism
According to Caro, Robert Parker, Johnson’s sometime chauffer, described in his memoir Capitol Hill in Black and White a moment when Johnson asked Parker whether he’d prefer to be referred to by his name rather than “boy,” “n**ger” or “chief.” When Parker said he would, Johnson grew angry and said, “As long as you are black, and you’re gonna be black till the day you die, no one’s gonna call you by your goddamn name. So no matter what you are called, n**ger, you just let it roll off your back like water, and you’ll make it. Just pretend you’re a goddamn piece of furniture.” But we shouldn’t forget Johnson’s racism, either. After Johnson’s death, Parker would reflect on the Johnson who championed the landmark civil rights bills that formally ended American apartheid, and write, “I loved that Lyndon Johnson.” Then he remembered the president who called him a n**ger, and he wrote, “I hated that Lyndon Johnson.”
I've read all of Caro's book on LBJ. And there are several.

Caro does not portray LBJ the way you and that hack article are trying to.

LBJ had to operate in a very racist Deep South, and he had to be a chameleon. He could be in a conversation on one side of the room and give the impression he was in total agreement with that group, then he could move to the other side of the room and be in total agreement with the opposite opinion with that group.

LBJ was a political genius. You should read Caro's books.

When someone asked him after the passage of those critical civil rights laws about his past using the n-word and acting like he was in harmony with his racist fellow legislators, he responded, "Free at last, free at last. Thank God Almighty, I'm free at last."

LBJ did what he needed to do to break the Southern racists' hold on political power.

How many Klan members in the US?
 
I KNOW history better than you ever will.

Republicans tried making slavery permanent by a constitutional amendment to appease southern states so they would not leave. That amendment was called the Corwin Amendment. Flash forward to the 1960's and more Democrats voted for the civil rights and voting rights acts than Republicans and a Democratic president signed both into law.

In 1964, Republicans decided to nominate a presidentia candudate that oposed the civi rigts act. Thats how much Republicans supported the Civil Rights Act.

Fast forward to today and Republicans are openly racist, opposing all equal opportunity policies and defending the right for schools to teach that slavery was beneficial. Your last 3 sentences are prime examples of the racism that exists in the Republican party today.

You call yourself idiocracy for a reason.

That's a lie. One guy from Ohio introduced that bill, it was never passed, so you're fishing.

Goldwater and the Eisenhower administration supported the integration of schools in the South, but Goldwater felt the states should choose how they wanted to integrate and should not be forced by the federal government. Incidentally, MLK said Goldwater was not racist. Should I trust your opinion or his?

During the 1960 presidential campaign, Nixon openly defended civil rights including support of government action to ensure fair treatment in employment and education.

Lyndon Johnson was a civil rights hero. But also a racist.​


Fact is, a greater percentage of Republican congress supported the Civil Rights Act than Democrats, by a lot.

Republicans aren't openly racist, it's the Democrats who market racism, and project. Your racist BS about my post is make believe, because to you, everything is racist. Now be a good dog, tune into CNN for further programming.

Thinking people don't read this race baiting moron's threads.

HTH
You don't need to be a "thinking person" to see through IM2's constant victimology and racism. It's his entire life; he spends every waking moment here trying to spread his racism.
 
Out of the over 10 million slaves that made it across the Atlantic, during the entire slave trade, only about 450,000 ended up in North America.
Brazil, should be the #1 target BY FAR of your wrath, as they alone received nearly half of the over 10 million.
I don't live in Brazil. 400,000 slaves came here. There were 4 milion by the end of slavery. 3.6 miion slaves were produced by slave breeding in America. Humans were manufactured to do labor. Women as young as 12 were forced to have children. They were required to be birthing mchines. So again, stop looking for excuses.

It's funny how these guys think. We blacks are supposed to leave the Democratic party and join the Republican party because a Republican president freed us from slavery. Yet they tell us how none of us were slaves. Accordung to them, we re supposed to despise the Democrats even though a Democratic president signed 2 pieces of legislation in our lifetimes that affect sus now.

We are supposed to hate Johnson because he used the n word, but we must always love Lincoln who stated that he believed that whites were superior and wanted to ship us out of the country.

When did all that happen? Centuries ago?

You were freed from slavery? How old are you?

Nobody here appreciates books more than me. I have my own library. I have one book on LBJ I have not got around to reading. I am traveling for work so I wont get to the book until I get back.

Caro. I will definetely look into that book. I also wont be goin to google to find a link to discredit your comments.

I was born in 63 so I know the people of that time. There was no stigma in using the "n" word. Context made all the difference. I always said the word originated in the south not through hate but through the dialect and lazy english.

Alot like any word that is on the vulgar side of language. Like bitch, some call the woman they love thier bitch. Some call the woman they love a bitch cause she is. Some hate that bitch.

I have heard good people use the n-word simply as a word. Some used the word because they hate.

Without knowing LBJ, I will say he used the word in many different ways.

Did he hate blacks yet let one drive for him? Political genius you say, so where is the truth.

There is doubt in my mind depending on the year he may of been asked about his usage of the word depend on the context of the answer.

I dont think it was until the 80's that the n-word became 100% attached to hate which really is a shame.

Thank you for the book recommendation. Books trump google. Books are the wild card. Too many use google like a deck of cards. Flip the top card, it agrees with thier opinion, they are right.

I am an idiot. I have a book by Caro, Master of the Senate. I will read it next. I got over a hundred books for next to nothing when a local used book store went out of business. I get a lot of books like this. One or two dollars each. No time to read them all at once. I will look for more as well.
