Diversity Equity Inclusion

Because they were pissed off at the election. Basically the mirror of everything being portrayed in your postings.

Riots were how we had political disagreements in 2020/21.
We did not try, to overtake the govt, big difference. We did not try to kill the vice Potus and congressmen. It is ok to peaceful protest. It's ok for you guys to take over the govt., that is an insurrection, not a protest.

White Supremacists, The Proud BOYS, White Conservatives, trump followers, and minions.
FYI, the attack of the Gravy Seals and their buddies was on the CAPITOL building, not on the WH. The Jan 6 Trumpturd uprising did not reach the White House grounds.

Don't you want to overthrow the government that is holding down you and other black people?
Sir, you are sad; I do not want to overthrow the Govt. I rather vote all the conservatives out. Although the Constitution did not include me, I rather honor those constitutions by following the laws of the US govt where I was born in. I remember saying the Pledge of Allegiance as a youngster. I am a Christian. I believe in 1 nation under God will liberty and justice for all. I will not incite one group against another. There are a lot of people who think those words belong to white people only. You have been holding us down for a long time . You are afraid of the browning of America.

"To Kill a Mockingbird" was one of the books we read in school that openly and clearly described the unfair treatment blacks received in the pre-Civil Rights South. It isn't Republicans banning it...




Meanwhile, libs consider school moms "domestic terrorists" for wanting this book out of elementary schools. I'm assuming you are in favor of books like "Gender Queer" being available to 2nd graders without parental permission?

Age-appropriate, but kids watch things on tv and the movies. MY exIN Oklahoma schools do not teach the Tulsa massacre.

I don't understand you supporting a government you say doesn't recognize you.

That seems very odd.

Unless you born 160 years ago, that’s a lie. Just stop imagining all the ways you are a or might be a victim and move on.

Believing you are a victim of events centuries old is a self fulfilling prophecy. You vote. You are a gold member of a college athletic forum. You obviously are literate. And you likely are gainfully implyoyed. You have a lot of advantages that You shouldn’t burden with ancient history.

Since you mention 1619, take those rose color glasses off. how long did it take for those advancements to occur. WE HAD to fight and send the national guard so we can have a right to go to school. Desantis wants to cancel out the black experience. The white man never did any wrong,, he would have you believe. you are telling me nothing new, for every advancement. The GOP wants to take away.
you did not respond to my questions

do you think the Constitution ratified in 1788 and effective March 4, 1789, still exists and still views black people as “three fifths” of a “person? Have you read the 4 amendments and 11 statutes I cited? Have you read Brown v. Board of Education? Do you any of the abolitionists I cited? Have you read Dr. King’s Letter From the Birmingham Jail?

Yes I have but the ? is How Long and they are still trying to take it away.
 
It isn't. They just make up a narrative where they become the good guys. So in this case the parties flipped. The New Deal had nothing to do with blacks flipping to Democrats. FDR only got 70% (give or take) of their vote. They were totally Republicans before Nixon the racist switched to his southern strategy. And the Jimmy Carter apparently became a racist with his own Southern strategy in 1976:

Then in 1980 the whole country went racist with the south:

Votes-election-Results-Candidate-Political-Party-American-1980.jpg


Then even worse in 1984:

election-Results-Candidate-American-Votes-Ronald-W-1984.jpg


The reality is that most of the world doesn't revolve around race. There is a whole other set of factors for why the switch up happened. Could race be involved with some of it? Yeah, but it didn't stop those party switching racists from voting almost lock step together for Carter over a decade after the Civil Rights act.

Good rebuttal with the Carter election. That was a little before my time (I was alive but not politically aware) so I'm not going off personal experience, but from what I know Carter was kind of a unicorn candidate.

He was a Dem but from Georgia who was also a strong evangelical candidate. He supposedly ran as an apolitical candidate and the country was reacting to the Nixon scandal and the Ford pardon.

So Carter, being an evangelical southerner, was a unique candidate for that moment.

There's a reason why Reagan opened his campaign in the south and played right into the southern strategy which obviously was effective as you can see.

The way I understand it was the conservative south were democrats because of, well Lincoln. That started to crack under FDR as he expanded the federal govt and sided with unions. Then it cracked open after the civil rights bill. Lyndon Johnson said that he probably just delivered the south to the republicans for the next century.

Anyway the Southern Strategy is summed up as this. The prevalent question is....does the strategy ring a bell right now (culture wars, anti feminism, racial scare tactics, strong evangelical influence)?

-------

In 1969, an aide in the Nixon White House named Kevin Phillips published a book titled the Emerging Republican Majority.

The book argued that the Republican Party needed to use racial and social issues to build up a base of socially conservative voters in the south.

Republicans didn’t win the South solely by capitalizing on white racial angst. That decision was but one in a series of decisions the party made not just on race but on feminism and religion as well. The GOP successfully fused ideas about the role of government in the economy, women’s place in society, white evangelical Christianity and white racial grievance, in what became a “long Southern strategy” that extended well past the days of Goldwater and Nixon.

He wasn't completely unique. Clinton split the south in 1992 and then again in 1996.

Reagan wiped out Carter and Mondale. He didn't need to enact any Southern strategy. In 1984 Minnesota was the only state he didn't win. His strategy was effective literally everywhere.
The way I understand it was the conservative south were democrats because of, well Lincoln. That started to crack under FDR as he expanded the federal govt and sided with unions. Then it cracked open after the civil rights bill. Lyndon Johnson said that he probably just delivered the south to the republicans for the next century.
And Johnson was wrong. The Democrats remained fairly strong in parts of the South when the elections were competitive. They were not competitive from 1980-1988 but you couldn't say that was because of some grand GOP strategy to take the south.

1980, 1984, and 1988 were just wipeouts.

No, it isn't summed up as that. That leaves out the idea that the Democrats weren't also doing things that turn off voters that are not in the northeast or on the west coast.

I will make it easier for you. The Democrats moved too far to the left socially and politically for nearly every state out side of the northeast and the west coast and the Republicans were successful in pointing out to these people that the things they value don't match that party. Not some grand evil design but focusing on stuff that rings true to them.

Everything else is just an attempt to demonize political opponents. (Which goes both ways you Godless grooming lazy check robbers....)

Im sorry you feel affirmative action lowered standards and that it has an adverse acceptance in general society. AA has helped many a white woman get a equal footing in our society. It has open more doors than what white men has attended. It really sad it takes a law for black people to get a equal footing. When the constitution was made ,the founding fathers did not consider black people since we were 3/5th human. The constitution was for white men. We are still fighting for equality in the year 2023. Yes we have made advancements but we still have a long way to go. I knew with the conservative court AA was going to be denied. Some people believed black people have advance to far, when that happens a lot of people try to stop that advancement. I fear that with AA being stopped in college education,it will move to other areas jobs,and other services.Racism is alive and well,thats why Desantis wants to erase our history so people can and will forget all the dirty things that were done to black people.
You are lying about DeSantis as he hired two blacks to write the history and they put all kinds of black history in the history classes.
