Trump becomes first president to skip MLK Day proclamation

They don’t care. ...

Yes they do, to the extent that most people care about the history of countries other than their own.

I know the order, I quoted the director responding to the removal

Is it just for the birthday celebration to return it to its original status? Is it part of cleaning up the park?

You really have given us no context here and just jumped to some radical conclusions

Post a link to that.

How many black millionaires in the entire continent of Africa vs. just America?

Also, I have no intention of visiting that continent.

Africa has over 120,000 to 135,000 millionaires, with recent reports from 2024/2025 placing the number around 135,200 (late 2023 data) or 122,500 (2025 estimate).

Washington is well known figure throughout the developed world. Outside of the US, no developed country cares about MLK.

Countries around the world don't give a fk about George Washington

Yes, they do.

No they don't. MLK is only a blip in the radar, nothing more. If they do care, they would hold some kind of event honoring him.

 

[Unkotare]

No they don't. ...

Yes, they do. With the conditions to which I referred.

 

[Unkotare]

... If they do care, they would [sic] hold some kind of event honoring him.

You don't have to hold an event to have an interest in history.

They don't have to give a ****. They know Washington and his role in the Revolutionary War and the dollar bill.

Ok, how many in Europe and Asia care about MLK?

No. Several years ago, my English friend built a beautiful tribute to America in the form of a diorama, and spoke very knowledgeably about our forefathers. Especially about George Washington.

She probably knew enough to easily ace the citizenship test.

And she though MLK was somewhat a joke.

Those who have an interest in and knowledge of US history. Most of the people I've met from Europe and Asia.

Let's put it this way. Movie poster with black actors and actresses are omitted from the poster in Europe and Asia. No country aside from the US is continuing to provide opportunities for blacks and pampering them.

Who told you that, and why were you stupid enough to believe it?

I don't think so. That's just the UK with a sizeable black population. Asia, forget about it. You do know that Asians, especially the Oriental Asians, do not revere blacks, right?

Half of Britons can’t name a single Black British historical figure, research shows

Some 75 per cent of British adults surveyed acknowledged that they did not know ‘very much’ or ‘anything at all’ about the subject

[Superbadbrutha]

Yes, they do.

No they don't, when I served overseas I didn't see anyone talking about or any displays of George Washington. They make talk about it in history class like we do in this country.

I guess Google search engine is stupid.

My Japanese in-laws, issei and nissei, did not care for the blacks or Jewish people.
