Wow, that's a lot of those Black people
with that HIV virus.
What, you haven't heard? CNN
reported yet again today. So bad in Washington DC that the
rates are similar to those in... yes, Black-populated Africa.
But wait, there's more.
In fact, there's a whole series of more
called "Black
In America." Oh, yeah, nothing to do with Barack running.
Nope, according to the CNN website, its just running because it's,
"40 years after the death of Rev. Marting Luther King Jr." CNN
admits this sort of series is, "an unprecedented television event."
And then on both CBS and CNN, on
the day that a presidential candidate named Barack Obama gave a
speech before 200,000+ people in Berlin Germany, top coverage on
their websites featured... no, not the speech.
No, even with all the coverage the
speech was given, it was given a side spot. The headline spot
both at
CBS and CNN were feature stories about Black people in America.
And wait, what's the news today:
House apologizes for slavery, Jim Crow Wait, that's just
CNN. Over at
CBS today we learn we're apologizing to Black people for - what??? -
World War II?
It's kind weird, isn't it? In
fact, so weird that an African American friend of mine asked with
alarm what had happened - where did this sudden HIV epidemic come
from? Is it really that bad?
What America is witnessing at the moment
is what's known in simple terms as a racist propaganda campaign
against Barack Obama.
Barack Obama is a man of
half-Caucasian-American, half-African descent. In fact, not a
single drop of his blood was given to him by an African American.
His lineage is not traced to slavery. He did not suffer under
Jim Crow laws. And, quite importantly, he specifically is not
running as a Black candidate. He is running as evenly with his
white half as his pigmented half.
He is not making his campaign centrally
about HIV in the African American community, nor about African
American life or issues at all.
Enter the corporations that own the
media. The HIV epidemic in Washington DC has existed for years
- as have many other epidemics there, such as drug use, crime, etc.
And, not coincidentally, they have not received substantial coverage
- never mind top billing - in the news.
By running a series such as CNN's "Black
In America," by whitewashing Barack's big Berlin day with cover
stories about Black Americans being riskier to sleep with than Green
Monkeys; in short, but putting Black, Black, Black up there in our
faces on a regular basis, the media are drumming up the latent
racism within us all. It is, while claiming to be giving air
to the plight and problems of Black people, constantly putting out
the most-dreaded of dreaded impressions. You know, the idea
that you hear the more openly racist among us saying - albeit not in
public. Yes, that if Barack Obama gets elected, it is going to
be about the Black people being in charge. That he will govern
for Black people. And that we better remember just how lowly,
problematic, and diseased these Black creatures are.
Oh yeah, and look now, they still are
bringing up Jim Crow and slavery. And World War II we have to
apologize for something. See, if Barack gets in office, he'll be
given them all more reparations, this time $20 million each and 2
mules.
It's disgusting. It's racist.
And, without question, it will be effective in scaring a number of
voters away from considering Barack Obama for President.
As we head toward Election Day, watch
the racist campaign to scare white people away from voting for Obama
play out daily from your favorite non-Moderate Independent new
source.
