When the topic of race relations is raised in America, especially as regards the relationship between African-Americans and whites, the name of Rev. Martin Luther King, Jr. looms large, at least as a backdrop to the discussion. That’s a measure of what a prominent voice he was in the civil rights movement of the 1950’s and 1960’s.
One quote of his comes to mind, “…remain committed to nonviolence. Our aim must never be to defeat or humiliate the white man, but to win his friendship and understanding. We must come to see that the end we seek is a society at peace with itself, a society that can live with its conscience. And that will be a day not of the white man, not of the black man. That will be the day of man as man.”
Unfortunately, both during his lifetime as well as now, there are those who claim his legacy while ignoring the idea of “the day of man as man.”
CNN doesn’t get it. At least one of its so-called journalists doesn’t get it. She probably has company at that network as she attempts to give the Democratic Party some advice on selecting leadership.
More on what this commentator is recommending on page two.
The people in the democrat people are the most racist political group in this country! I find no redeeming qualities in what they say they stand for and what they do. They are into division instead of unity and always have been! Disgusting and dangerous!!!
why is that rhetoric not racism?
The islamocrat party are just a bunch of racist morons
Black racism isn’t going to solve a damn thing in this country but Blacks not voting for democrats would do a lot for their cause.Know why? Because democrats are evil , duplicitous assholes that have been the ones dumping on your race for ever.Know the history of the democratic party and ask yourself how come you were never taught any of this in school?
leave it to C.N.N. to promote more racist bull$#%&!@*! they should be taken off the air for ever !
These people are the reason why obama ruined the country.
Go to your own continent.
People can make statements like this all day long, and there will still be a small, white segment that apologizes for being white so that they can kiss the Democrat$#%&!@* Wake up morons, you’re not wanted in the DNC anymore.
The Democrats have kissed Black butts all of these years so that they could get their votes.The Democrats in turn kept them in the fold by giving them welfare and empty promises. Now they have finally figured it out and it has led to statements like this that the DNC don’t need White people. It will be interesting to see what will happen.
and they never will, they’re the next “Jim Jones” generation.
