"That has no bearing on the discussion. Of course black America has endured indignity and been treated shamefully but that does nothing to change the reality of people watching the mayhem and destruction while little is done to prevent or stop it. I'm merely pointing out that it's going to get worse, and your complaining that you have more reason to gripe than someone else is totally irrelevant to that."
Apparently you don't live in a black community, The so called liberal media doesn't cover a lot of things that happen in black neighborhoods. This is why:
In his Sunday column, Kansas City Star Editor Mike Fannin detailed the paper’s latest investigation into a trusted, local institution that had “disenfranchised, ignored and scorned” the Black community for decades.
But the powerful business in question, one that “robbed an entire community of opportunity, dignity, justice and recognition,” hit close to home: It was the Star.
“We are sorry,” wrote Fannin, the paper’s editor and president. He added: “It is time that we own our history.”
The Star issued an apology on Sunday for the way the newspaper had previously covered the Black community for decades, including how Black people only made the paper in its early years if they were accused of a crime.
Which is why people make the silly comments like the ones in blue.
The only news to report is out of wedlock children and shootings.
Only if you're a racist white boy.
The new Liberal Dictionary where facts are racist.
There is no such dictionary. This is how ,much you don't know white man. And this is in YOUR city.
Clinton Hill Plaza renamed after local socio-cultural innovator Jitu K. Weusi
Ariama C. Long | 7/8/2021, midnight
Crowds of adoring family members, fans, politicians, activists, friends, students, and mentees gathered this past Saturday, July 3, to honor longtime educator and social justice advocate Jitu K. Weusi, formerly called Leslie R. Campbell, with a plaza renaming in his honor at Putnam Triangle on Fulton St. and Grand Ave. in Brooklyn.
Weusi, who passed away in May 2013, was a Bedford-Stuyvesant native and icon. He was known by many names, such as “Big Black.”
He began teaching in 1962 when he became dissatisfied with the state of education for Black teachers and students, said family.
He went on to be a founding member of the African American Teachers Association (ATA) before leaving the Department of Education (DOE) entirely in the late 1960s to form the first Black independent private school in New York City, Uhuru Sasa Shule (Freedom Now School),
reported Patch.
Eventually, he returned to the DOE in 1985 and retired in 2006, but founded a vast number of organizations including the New York Chapter of the National Black United Front (NBUF), African Americans United for Political Power, the EAST, and co-founded the Central Brooklyn Jazz Consortium (CBJC).
