Maybe good ole kanye can come up with a new song for us. Quote

Poor whites who came over still had the privilege of being white. They could go to schools they could find jobs they had it way better off than blacks.... I know this might be hard for you to just admit. You keep throwing out silly stuff like. Oh what about the poor whites. Ok This part I can agree with.....but that is no longer true today....or at least doesn't have to be...that was my only point about "my" family and JUST 3 generations........do you agree, that IF a black family today that is poor of the poorest just up and decided to "fix" their family tree...push love of God, family (don't get pregnant, both parents raise their kids)....respect, hard work and education that in as short a time as 3 generations their grand kids could be pretty well off even as a black person in todays society and rules.

Textbooks make some of them look great Maybe you should read a little more. Sounds like you haven't the foggiest clue as to what went into the writing of the Articles of Confederation, the Declaration of Independence, the Constitution and the Bill Of Rights. They didn't just cut and paste from other documents. Quote
new tobie Posted September 22, 2016 Report Posted September 22, 2016 Talking about individual men in history books. When some of these great documents were written, it was ok to hang some folks without using the justice system. And about old documents. On the job procedures get changed and modified. Quote

You just throw stuff out there to see if it sticks, huh? Doesn't every town have to have an MLK street? Just think of the cost of changing street signs alone. Like I said, hard to believe. Quote
