Pete Hegseth Says Air Force Restoring Tuskegee Airmen Videos Amid Backlash

[Kruska]

To mimic the democrats. I think not.

Only goes to show how little you "think".

 

[rightwinger]

Celebrate you claim? But the Confederacy was Democrats. They have not changed one bit.

Was is the word

It is Republicans defending their racist heritage

 

[Kruska]

When have black folks ever been racist against whites? We are not in a position of power to be racist, now black folks can hate.

Hmm... the USA okay, in Africa?? many are just as racist as Whites are.

 

[Superbadbrutha]

There was quite a bit of discussion about diversity and inclusion
At the start of the war, Negroes were restricted to menial labor and cook positions
NAACP and other groups pushed for access to more skilled positions…..inclusion

Tuskegee airmen and tank battalions were a result

Trying to change history to fit the lies that they tell.

 

[Superbadbrutha]

That is the same argument MAGA is making today. We don’t oppose diversity as long as it is based on merit
But whites get to decide what merit is

Exactly and it's only based on merit when it favors them.

 

[Superbadbrutha]

Well, that is very arrogant.

Why did Japan attack America again?

 

[Superbadbrutha]

You have been fooled by Democrats. First why do you assume those black pilots excelled? At what?

Ask the Bomber pilots that they were protecting.

DEI evolved from EEO and Affirmative Action

It is hard to abolish DEI without cutting out Equal Employment
Military have been receiving diversity training for decades, now it is under attack as….this may be DEI

More like it mutated from EEO, which was sufficient on it's own.

As presented, developed and taught by the Left; DEI = In application it has meant Divisiveness, Inequality, and Exclusion = DIE.

It's amazing how as long as it favors white women, Asians, handicapped ️, LBGTQ, etc. it's ok, but if you think it might favor black folks then white men feel threatened. Why is that?

When have black folks ever been racist against whites? We are not in a position of power to be racist, now black folks can hate.

So you're saying that no black person has ever been in a position of power?

What was Barack H. Obama doing for 8 years?

What about black leaders and entrepreneurs like Oprah Winfrey, Denzil Washington Jr., Mellody Hobson (CEO Starbucks), Nelson Mandela, Mae Jamison (NASA Astronaut), Colin Powell, Muhammad Ali, Tiger Woods, Michael Jordan, Brandon M. Scott (Baltimore Mayor), Lori Lightfoot ( Chicago Mayor), Eric Johnson (Mayor of Dallas TX), Michael Hancock (Denver Mayor), Sylvester Turner (Mayor Houston TX), Quinton Lucas (Kansas City Mayor), Ras J. Baraka (Mayor Newark NJ), Latoya Cantrell (Mayor New Orleans), London Breed (Mayor San Francisco), Melvin Carter (Mayor St Paul MN), Muriel Browser (Mayor Washington D.C.), Karen Bass (Mayor Los Angeles).

You cannot say you aren't in a position of power because there are black mayors and judges all over the United States. And we've had a black president.

The days of using that lame excuse is gone forever.

You and I both know that some blacks can be just as prejudice as any white Cracker born in the South during the depression.

Matter of fact, there are more blacks today that are that are extremely prejudice than white people, even though you only make up 13% of the total population.

The 1989 film Glory depicts the 54th Massachusetts Volunteer Infantry Regiment, the first all-Black regiment in the Union Army during the American Civil War

They waged war against Democrats. But later on, Democrats sold them out by jim crow laws, lynching, the Ku Klux klan and lying that Democrats do not discriminate. FDR virtually put blacks in the deep freeze during WW2. You know how many years democrats had first to allow blacks to be pilots then to have them in the war? The war was off limits to blacks till FDR was next to dying.

This is when at the end of war against Hitler that the blacks protected the bombers with fighters.

Tuskegee Airmen fought Hitler in Christmas of '44

Christmas is a special day for worship, but black pilots from Alabama had something else to do 73 years ago—destroying part of Hitler’s war machine.

Now the Tuskegee Airmen were formed at the request of Mrs. Roosevelt in 1943.

They began fighting on Christmas day in December 1944.

Pilot training to fly bombers for whites lasted 5 months. For blacks, whites trained them for about a year and a half.

'Bloody Hundredth' B-17 Pilot Shares WWII Experiences

Retired Air Force 1st Lt. John A. Clark was a co-pilot with the 100th Bomb Group, which gained its reputation as the "Bloody Hundredth" due to the heavy losses it suffered during World War II.

WW2 ended on May 7, 1945 in Europe.

Explain what you mean. I just researched when the Tuskegee Airmen was created and how long it took the Army air corps to train them and when at the end of WW2, they flew protection flights. They protected white pilots flying B17s.

Training for white pilots took 5 months yet blacks trained by white officers took about 1.5 years.

 

[Robert W]

Ask the Bomber pilots that they were protecting.

From December 25, 44 to May 7, 1945. Are you a pilot yet? I am.

Why did Japan attack America again?

To attempt to defeat FDR. HE handed them their first target.

Was is the word

It is Republicans defending their racist heritage

We don't have such heritage. Per historians, Democrats waged war against the previous USA.

Then why do Republicans defending it?

Did Pres. Obama watch Birth of a Nation and no one told us? Tell me how Pres. Obama discriminated against white folks. Tell me how any of the above-named folks discriminated against white folks. Well show us how black folks are discriminating and acting out their racism against whites.

 

[Superbadbrutha]

From December 25, 44 to May 7, 1945. Are you a pilot yet? I am.

WTF does that mean?

 

[Superbadbrutha]

To attempt to defeat FDR. HE handed them their first target.

So, Japan attacked Pearl Harbor because they didn't like FDR, is that what you are telling us?

 

[Robert W]

WTF does that mean?

That is the period when the Tuskegee airmen actually flew missions. They had a brief record.
