SEATTLE, WA -- On September 11, 2011, blacks from the West Coast and the East Coast joined together and signed one of the most comprehensive legal briefs ever prepared on racial discrimination, then filed their brief today, September 12th, at 9:00 AM Pacific Daylight Time in US District Court in Seattle (Case No. C11 - 1503). The plaintiffs, who refer to the defendants as Father of Racism, allege that as an organization, the Democratic Party has consistently refused to apologize for the role they played in slavery and Jim Crow laws and for other subsequent racist practices from 1792 to 2011. Rev. Wayne Perryman, a former Democrat himself and the lead plaintiff in this class action lawsuit, said he was inspired to file this action after seeing the recent movie The Help. The movie takes place in the region that was exclusively controlled by Democrats for more than 150 years (the South). Mrs. Frances P. Rice, the Chair of the National Black Republican Association is also a plaintiff in the lawsuit. Mrs. Rice is a resident of Sarasota, Florida and has lived in the the South most of her life.
The case cites the collective work of over 350 legal scholars and includes Congressional records, case law, research from our nation's top history professors, racist statements from Democratic elected officials, citations from the Democrat's National Platforms regarding their support of slavery, excepts of speeches from Senator Obama, individual testimonies from blacks who lived in the Jim Crow South and opinions from the NAACP.

Against barry’s white half, no doubt.
They should also sue the Democrats for enslaving them via welfare and inner city schools.

Love the name, though... lol.
What??? They’re suing Democrats?!? Granted, the Democrat Party is the party of racism, but for black Americans to recognize it and take action (however foolish) against them is hugh and series! I’m stuned...
Stoopid.
Backdoor reparations move...?
Love the name, though... lol.
Finally blacks are realizing that it was originally the Democrats who have kept them on the plantation and in mass poverty and not those villainous Republicans. A history lesson is finally being played out. The democrats have always masqueraded as “friends/brothers” of the black man when all along the opposite was true. Hens coming home to roost. And, bad news for the communist democrats in power - no more using the black folk as your battering ram against the conservatives.

Even if the law suit ends up symbolic, a huge awakening is going to happen. I can’t believe this was on Moveon.com’s blog.
Perryman and Rice are both GREAT Americans!
Pretty awesome.
Are courts in the business of ordering apologies?
Not moveon.org, Move-on-up is the site.
Another good group

Until the election of 2000 I had no idea it was the ‘demoRATS’ that voted against civil rights. It was a group of young black teens who told me. Never taught this in school. Wake up my fellow black brothers and sister. Join a tea party!
