(ThyBlackMan.com) Born in 1856, Booker T. Washington was an amazing black educator, orator, author and adviser to US presidents.
Isn’t it interesting that black men and women in America way back then were achieving extraordinary success? Meanwhile, liberals and Democrats claim America is such a hellhole of racism that blacks need cradle-to-grave welfare, affirmative action, lowered standards and numerous other special concessions to survive. Why am I seemingly the only black person on the planet highly offended by the Left’s bigotry of lowered expectations? Actually, I know other blacks who share my frustration with blacks who think liberals and Democrats are their friends.
Booker T. Washington so succinctly and perfectly described black race profiteers, I am convinced he personally knew Al Sharpton. Thus, Sharpton must have a portrait of himself in his attic like Dorian Gray. The portrait collects Sharpton’s plethora of sins and keeps his appearance from reflecting his true age. I suspect this despicable race hustling conman has been peddling crap/hate for a very, very long time.
Washington really nailed Sharpton and the Black Lives (Lies) Matter movement in his following quote.
“There is another class of colored people who make a business of keeping the troubles, the wrongs, and the hardships of the Negro race before the public. Having learned that they are able to make a living out of their troubles, they have grown into the settled habit of advertising their wrongs – partly because they want sympathy and partly because it pays. Some of these people do not want the Negro to lose his grievances, because they do not want to lose their jobs.”
Can you believe Washington said that back in the late 1800s? Black “losers” (a little Trump lingo) were exploiting race and looking for a free ride. As the saying goes, there in nothing new under the sun.
So, here we go again. To commemorate the one year anniversary of the death of black thug Michael Brown, Black Lives Matter thugs trashed Ferguson again. http://cnn.it/1MpUaCa Liberals still advise government to walk on eggshells to appease the BLM terrorists.
Michael Brown robbed and assaulted the clerk of a convenience store. He died attacking a police officer. Period. End of subject. Why in the name of all that is righteous would intelligent people, black and white, reward this thug with civil rights hero status? How offensive is that? What a slap in the face to the legacies of real civil rights icons?
Black Lives Matter thugs are allowed to roam the country wrecking havoc. At a major speaking event, liberal Democrat presidential candidate Bernie Sanders allowed BLM thugs to storm the stage, take his microphone and run him off his own stage. How wimpy is that? http://bit.ly/1DMRkEq
Democrat presidential contender Martin O’Malley also allowed BLM thugs to hijack his event. O’Malley wimped out and pandered to the rude thugs. O’Malley’s attempt at appeasement emboldened the thugs to demand that he apologize for daring to say “white lives and all lives matter.” O’Malley complied. http://fxn.ws/1WlZnhh
Sanders and O’Malley displayed typical Democratic Party weakness and politically correct liberal thinking. Liberals believe because blacks were slaves in America, whites must be careful not to offend and have no moral authority to ever tell blacks no.
These two Democrats immediately waving the white flag of surrender to BLM perfectly illustrates why Democrats must never be in-charge of our national defense.
Black Lives Matter thugs are bullying everyone because they can. These evil hate-filled race profiteers ignored the facts in every incident in which a black is killed. The movement is a scam. BLM is really about gaining political power. It is not about resolving issues or racial unity. Nor do they want as Washington brilliantly stated, “the Negro to lose his grievances…”
The insidiously evil movement is unworthy of respect from the American people. Pandering to BLM is a huge mistake; emboldening them to behave more outrageously and make more absurd demands.
In Boston, BLM banned whites from a public forum. http://bit.ly/1UE9Lz7
At a Chicago suburb high school white students were barred from attending a Black Lives Matter event. http://bit.ly/1L7epRP
BLM leaders say they will “shut down” the Republican National Convention. http://bit.ly/1KJ6VEq
In Denver, BLM bullies say screw history, we want the name of the city’s Stapleton neighborhood changed. http://bit.ly/1P8aPYt
BLM thugs began digging up a confederate general’s grave. . http://bit.ly/1JV0lw2
BLM launched a campaign to deface civil war monuments across America. http://bit.ly/1J0McZf
BLM thugs are burning American and confederate flags. http://bit.ly/1Mlqgx6
BLM has intimidated numerous major corporations. Cowering in fear, major store chains have stopped selling confederate flags. http://cnn.it/1JV3ig5
What continues to boggle my mind is why do liberal activists always fight for symbolic changes which do not impact blacks’ lives in any way. And yet, not only do liberals ignore, they verbally beat up anyone who dares to address real issues plaguing the black community. http://bit.ly/1HIFUMF What is up with that?
Bottom line, America needs to stop pandering to Black Lives Matter haters and race profiteers. Tell these terrorists no. Tell them to shut up and go away. If not, the infectious BLM disease will continue to grow and spread, nurturing racial hate, pounding on it’s chest and poisoning our great land.

Booker T. Washington was a great leader and elder spokesperson. However, as powerful as a leader as he was his approach to black emancipation was flawed. He was a proponent of Black people giving up their right to participate in electoral politics. This, among other things, put him at odds with another great black leader of the day known as W.E.B Dubois. I believe very strongly that it was Washington’s conciliatory, almost mechanical nod at being socially inferior that pleased the white power structure of that day.
Fast forward today, that some members of the rank and file hard right are using him as the example of “why can’t you guys be more like him” is laughable if not predictable. Why not use W.E.B. Dubois, Ida B. Wells or Harriet Tubman, a woman who would not wait for the moral compass of the majority of white America to awaken.
What she said then rings true today, especially after reading this article: “I freed a thousand slaves. I could have freed a thousand more if only they knew they were slaves.”
I understand your frustration, but you cannot as a mature older person decide how young people react to what’s happening. you read as if you’re in your 50s. so am I. our parents complained about their kids in the 1960’s. So if we are doing the same things, we’re no more understanding, mature or introspective than they are. things are way better than the 1960s and 70s but conservative folk don’t want to own up to that.
Now if we start hating people as blacks, then we haven’t learned anything.
Black Live Matter is a group of people who want things to change but they don’t know the path of wisdom to get there. I always advocate standing up for our rights, but there is often a better way, a better time and a better place or forum where we are likely to gain ground and win. You don’t fight fire with fire. You fight it with the water of strategic wisdom.
Thank you for speaking the truth. These ‘progressives’ are nothing but trouble makers, thriving on dividing the races. I hope we can all come together again one day.
What you have written here is RIGHT ON POINT!!! As a former Black Police Officer and Retired U.S. Marine; I SALUTE YOU for writing the TRUTH!!!
