Not at all, Celebrating your heritage is great, The Italians and Irish do that also. Saying black lives matter is fine, I think black lives matter, but you know its just not that, its the part of saying you want cops dead, then they dont really have people speaking, but rather, blocking freeways streets and breaking shop windows etc.
Point out racism when there is racism... not just pointing out some kid is racist because hes born white.
We can see what this is really all about, there is a radical part of the left wing who would like to do away with the US constitution, and symbols like the US flag, then replace it with something more representative in their minds, something more socialist in nature. Once they convince everyone that everything in the US is racist, because the people who created the country was racist, all white people have unfair privileges and advantages, are evil by virtue of genetics it will be so much easier to accomplish that.
No I have no issue with people being proud of their African Heritage whatsoever.... Only people who use that as a trojan horse to accomplish something else.
You always give yourself away. No one has ever said they want
all cops dead and even if a few have thats not an accurate representation of BLM or its agenda. Their only error is expecting whites to listen to them complaiing. Again your replies are simply full of deflections and racist blame. Something I have come to expect of whites that feel uncomfortable facing reality.
Get rid of the constitution? You mean the same one that stated Blacks were not fully human? Written by slave owners with the hypocrisy to claim all men are created equal? You dont need to convince everyone else that the US is racist. People all over the world know its racist and they see the effects even in their countries.
You arent evil because your ancestors were racists. Youre only ignorant and racist if you claim they were not or that what your ancestors did by setting up a racial caste system is not directly responsible for your present privileges and advantages.
What people celebrate their African heritage and attempt to use it as a trojan horse? This is a new on on me.
So there you go, you are for getting rid of the Constitution. And it is false that it stated Blacks were not fully human there was a reason for the 3/5ths clause. Please educate yourself. It was a political measure because of conflict between the Northern and Southern delgates
3/5th Clause in the Constitution. What is it and why was it put in?
Delegates to the Constitutional Convention of 1787 hotly debated the issue of slavery. George Mason of Virginia argued eloquently against slavery, warning his fellow delegates:
“Every master of slaves is born a petty tyrant. They bring the judgment of heaven on a country. As nations cannot be rewarded or punished in the next world, they must be in this. By an inevitable chain of causes and effects, providence punishes national sins by national calamities.”
Southern delegates, on the other hand, argued strenuously that the new government should not be allowed to interfere with the institution of slavery. Delegate John Rutledge of South Carolina, for example, told delegates that “religion and humanity have nothing to do with the questions” of whether the Constitution should protect slavery–it was simply a question of property rights.
The Constitution that the delegates proposed included several provisions that explicity recognized and protected slavery. Without these provisions, southern delegates would not support the new Constitution–and without the southern states on board, the Constitution had no chance of being ratified. Provisions allowed southern states to count slaves as 3/5 persons for purposes of apportionment in Congress (even though the slaves could not, of course, vote), expressly denied to Congress the power to prohibit importation of new slaves until 1808, and prevented free states from enacting laws protecting fugitive slaves.
Celebrating Black Heritage is a Trojan Horse when it doesn't actually do that. When it becomes a platform to just say how racist whites are, then it becomes a Trojan Horse. Its pretty simple actually.
