Simplify this.

If a white person opens his mouth, SJW’s cut him off saying Ut, Ut, you hush up!

I just said it and so did you (by copying and pasting)...and so far, we’re still alive.

Shortly after moving to Memphis last Spring I saw a Shirt that had the images of Dr.King, Elvis, and B.B. King.
Underneath it said “Three Kings”. I bought one.

If a black person uses a computer, is that cultural appropriation?

I predicted the Left would eventually cancel MLK because he wasn’t “radical” enough.

RE: If a black person uses a computer, is that cultural appropriation?

Asking for a friend.
/////////////////////////////////////////
True of a long list. And everyone could join in the fray over genuine or simply the common name we know for non-Swedes and Swedish Meat Balls, non-Belgians and Belgian waffles or non-Quakers eating Quaker Oats. Lawyers will love it.

Just to be fair, at one time Paul Whiteman was the King of Jazz.

And I had to laugh recently hearing some Yardbirds type young white guys trying to sound soulful singing the blues. Their backgrounds were not authentic but like Tom Rush and Bob Dylan they understood others had it worse and their music should be respected and preserved. Very few blacks went to hear black people sing blues or bought their records—possibly wanting to forget the old days before they arrived. It was a young white fan revival in the 60s and 70s.

Parchman Farm was covered by the Nashville Teens, Blue Cheer, Johnny Rivers, Bobbie Gentry and many others. I was able to see Bukka White sing once. He was in that prison as a young man. It was his song about his past.

But when a white student in an English folk song and ballad class I took was sick of hearing the putdowns of others singing black songs (John Hammond and Eric Clapton and others) she said: “Why can’t anyone of any race sing a song? Why should our freedom be restricted?” She was practically booed for it.

I never forgot her for that statement.

That is a very good argument to shut these idiots up.

It would be a hoot if a group of White people were to take out a full page ad in a local newspaper that listed all of the items invented by, developed by, or improved upon, by White people in 2 inch letters proclaim “all of the aforementioned items were invented by, improved upon, or developed by White people and their use by non-Whites constitutes cultural appropriation and it needs to stop.”

Wouldn’t that be a hoot?

I will then post quotes by Booker T. Washington.

“There is another class of coloured 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.”
Booker T. Washington

“I am afraid that there is a certain class of race-problem solvers who don’t want the patient to get well, because as long as the disease holds out they have not only an easy means of making a living, but also an easy medium through which to make themselves prominent before the public.”
Booker T. Washington, My Larger Education

“Among a large class, there seemed to be a dependence upon the government for every conceivable thing. The members of this class had little ambition to create a position for themselves, but wanted the federal officials to create one for them. How many times I wished then and have often wished since, that by some power of magic, I might remove the great bulk of these people into the country districts and plant them upon the soil – upon the solid and never deceptive foundation of Mother Nature, where all nations and races that have ever succeeded have gotten their start – a start that at first may be slow and toilsome, but one that nevertheless is real.”
Booker T. Washington, Up from Slavery

“My experience is that people who call themselves “The Intellectuals” understand theories, but they do not understand things. I have long been convinced that, if these men could have gone into the South and taken up and become interested in some practical work which would have brought them in touch with people and things, the whole world would have looked very different to them. Bad as conditions might have seemed at first, when they saw that actual progress was being made, they would have taken a more hopeful view of the situation.”
Booker T. Washington

This is why we need to run for school board... Time to fight for all of America’s children! The time to ignore the school board races is over, we need to run and tell the teachers unions, liberals and CREEPS who will let DRAG QUEENS (Unless the Drag Queens are NHRA FEMALE RACERS) into our schools that it won’t happen.

They might as well then claim that MLK is a white supremacist.

Imagine wanting to judge someone by the content of their character rather than the color of their skin.

By electing and reelecting Democrats. And kicking God out at every opportunity. And it is only going to get worse.
