I personally don't care as I don't feel it's going to add or subtract anything from my life, but I hope that for those who feel this is important, I hope this makes them feel better. IP: Logged |

Yes. Anything "woke" is unnatural. As well if anyone "woke" took them outta their usual pocket of like minded one's and visited other black communities, online or otherwise - they would see this is a bargain chip made by x y and z to do what they are with society. It's all MANipulation to steer people through low vibration energy. Woke ones are angry, hostile and fearful.
In a nutshell, most people that are not white see through the BS. Those in those woke groups who aren't white are either paid or programmed. Sadly. If anyone went seeking quit less attention seeking black people's opinions, they could see a wider picture. Everyone should question what makes the news. If it does big money is behind it. If it does what are the motives? We were given minds - we don't use them - we lose them and as jwgop said "Marxist communist" .... That would s a hive mind, goal of stealing the minds of many.

Let’s at least be historically accurate here. On this date, the REPUBLICANS and Union soldiers set free the remaining slaves from DEMOCRAT slave owners.IP: Logged |

And those slave masters gave all the constitution that you are all proud of.They insisted removing the word "God" and adding freedom for "slaves " in it. Must have been the dogmatic conservatives of those time who were self centered and didn't want it . IP: Logged |

Hard to find a true Marxist in USA. Majority Americans believe that behind a body there is a soul. A watch just doesn't show up in existence. There is a force behind its creation. Perhaps JW is referring to Marxist Russia and China and just broadcasting fears that the advertisers pay him to do Those Marxists deny that 21 grams is lost when a body dies , just to illustrate. Where does it go? It is 2021 now, I am sure much has changed. Americans are the most fascist and materialistic . Pendulum does swing for any civilization. P.S Enjoy your 1 free holiday which all these fascists doesn't want you to. Remember Billie? He said vacation is for losers or something like that. What a Mfk fascist and a draconian. Rumor has it his soul contract ends Aug 2021. Lets see . IP: Logged |

In my time alive this round, I have witnessed Black appreciation dates, occasions added so often. I'm speaking from middle isle - What amount will ever be enough? Before the "woke" movement, there was many holidays , months etc especially rights pushing special groups to the front of lines. I am all for equality, yet that line is blurred in the "woke" times. In a perfect world, We could celebrate each group with it's own month (continent based I suppose) and use the remaining months - supposing there would be ~ For ALL LIVES. I mean shouldn't this segregation be over already? I was a kindergartener when they lifted in my area. I was best buds to so many black kids. I loved it, playing with Diana Ross dolls and understanding differnt cultures from myself (Sag risings love that) but when will this BS quit? Because needing to push for special treatment over and over, no end in sigh - no satisfaction met (like a hole never filled) and on the other side to oppose rights, not allowing equality - it all gets outta hand. When will actual Equality/ Equal rights, fairness occur? Because it seems the new oppression is going the other way. No one should be ok with any oppression. We are eachother. The mirror effect is a real thing and karma will be paid - again later. We can't change the generations before - We CAN see now that flipping the script is still going to bring a future with similar results. If we aren't careful, that will occur. The true argument is below the surface - light/dark is not about skin (s. kin) ~ http://youtu.be/582cgYbUlLc

It's a start. Republicans don't even want to do this, let alone what "most non-white people" are actually asking for. IP: Logged |

Your shining light pledged to do this, as a way to win votes. Would you have been okay if he did? Of course, he could have been lying, and not gone through with it. He could have tried to do it last year, but he didn't. IP: Logged |

The real question is would you have been against it had President Trump done so? Of course, we all know the answer to that. You are oblivious to every great thing President Trump has done for the Black community and every bad thing Biden has done for Blacks.IP: Logged |

Holiday: Juneteenth! Emancipation 1863 --> June 19, 1865 Galveston Texas --> June 19, 2021 Whitehouse Proclamation - http://www.whitehouse.gov/briefing-room/presidenti al-actions/2021/06/18/a-proclamation-on-juneteenth-day-of-observance-2021/ Video: History of Juneteenth (by Roland Wiley, 3 years ago, w Links to REFS in the notes) [4:32] http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qwe7pQPMcGo In the past years here at LL, I had done a thoroughly researched posting on Juneteenth, with links. (The LL Google search barely brings up LL links? .. Didn't even bring mention of 'this' thread, with "Juneteenth" in the title. Wonder why? Used to give several pages of links for things I typed into the search bar.) Certain towns and States in the USA had been celebrating Juneteenth for years. Now finally, this Proclamation 2021 "unites" the Country in pinning this important piece of history about the formation of this country (USA).
Recognition comes on the approach of USA Pluto Return. Digging down deep into our Foundations. (music) Shackles {Mary Mary's} (Jennifer Phillips, {born in USA}, UK The X-Factor, 2015) [2:44] http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xO7eaEPuSVg IP: Logged |

Newsflash: he pledged to do it, so I guess he thought that he could. Still wondering why the republicans who like to claim the same victory as their predecessors, in freeing the slaves, don't want to actually have it celebrated, or taught at all. IP: Logged |
