Why racism is an issue in the 21st century. The answer just might shock you.

I've never seen such disingenuous mental gymnastics in all my life.





Racism is alive and well... On the right.

"Oh but 200 years ago..."

Yada Yada.

The left want to discuss it... Or, "bring it into the foray"...


The right are the ones who perpetuate... Or bring it into reality.

I don't care about chronological nonsense.

It's September 2015 and those slave owners are DEAD.

Racist pigs and racist xenophobic republicans are running for president TODAY!!!

I don't care about chronological nonsense.

Apparently neither does anyone else.

a reply to: neo96

And in 100 years when people look back at this point in history they'll talk about how the Republicans from the 2000s were the party that was number one amongst racists.

Just like how you're talking about democrats from 50-100 years ago

You've shot yourself in the foot... Again.


You don't want the left discussing (bring to the foray) racism...


But you're happy to go back 200 years to discuss (bring to the foray) racism.



Get a bandage for your foot, Neo, there is blood on the dancefloor.

The only fail here is from those refusing to read the sourced material.

During the 2003 Democratic Primary debates, the Rev. Al Sharpton, said the Democrat take the black vote for granted and treat African American like a mistress. They [Democrats] will take us to the dance, but they don't want to take us home to meet mama." - See more at: historynewsnetwork.org...

And the people like Neo will say "that was a century ago, my side doesn't do that anymore".


MEDIC!!!

I thought al sharpton was a joke that we shouldn't take seriously.

Oh wait but now you're quoting him?

Democrats weren't always the center, center-left party. That's what you aren't getting. You're applying the ideologies of present day Democrats across history and it's quite foolish.

Race has been a political hot potato for almost two centuries here.

Driven by wait for it....

POLITICS.

And yeah the one that continually keeps bringing it up in to the foray is the democrats.

Yeah... the Democrats. The Republicans are squeaky clean, right?

Here's a thought: Most people are either open racists or closet racists. The open ones I can handle because they don't mince words. The closet ones are those who'd crap their pants out of fear they might get outed, but they're far more numerous and dangerous because they're sneaks.

I'd rather sit down with an open racist and try to discuss their issues, but the sneaks I wouldn't trust with a bottle of beer. The beer goes in and the racism comes out, usually in the worst ways.

And I thought the democratic party was the party of 'equality'.

For over 2 centuries they haven't even been close to being.

Sharpton is a joke. He's the Dr Seuss of racism. Well, I take Dr Seuss more seriously.

Some called it the Civil War, others called it the War Between the States, but to the African Americans at that time, it was the War Between the Democrats and the Republicans over slavery. The Democrats gave their lives to expand it, Republican gave their lives to ban it. - See more at: historynewsnetwork.org...

History reveals that it was Thaddeus Stevens, a Radical Republican that introduced legislation to give African Americans the so-called 40 acres and a mule and Democrats overwhelmingly voted against the bill. - See more at: historynewsnetwork.org...

Yeah pretty much.

Yes Louis Farrakhan is a text book lefty...

Get real he is a hatefilled supremacist.
He has no allegiance to direction, just money and fascism.

& some of those weren't even racist.
