Start by removing openly racists organizations from the public discourse and places of national prominence. Those would include the NAACP, La Raza and the Congressional Black Caucus.

Confronting issue of race means white people admitting that all the problems of blacks are their fault. It also means that no matter how many self destructive habits or behaviors blacks have, they are not responsible. This in turn means that whites owe blacks money.

Rebuttal?
It is a fool’s errand to try to “rebut” propaganda. What people worldwide have to learn is that mass “communications” should be treated as presumptively propaganda. The reason mass “communicators” tend to propagandize is painfully simple: Because they can. They can, for the simple reason that “communicators” all have the same interest. They all hype talk over action, the reverse of Theodore Roosevelt’s famous definition of the public interest:
"It is not the critic who counts . . . the credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena . . . who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds . . . 
All mass communications tend to denigrate great accomplishments by incessant criticism, condemnation, and complaint. The particular great accomplishments this article denigrates are the usual suspects: the Constitution, the rule of law, Christian efforts to eliminate slavery and to promote the brotherhood of man under the Fathership of God. All of which are slandered in this article.

Please ask the 6 million Jews murdered by the Germans about racism.

“I had an opportunity to see how others see us while vacationing in Italy when news broke of the grand jury’s decision not to indict officer Darren Wilson...”

And, like a true, solid-as-a-rock American liberal...he immediately surrendered.

Less than 15% of the population commits over 70% of the violent crimes (FBI statistics).
That is all the rebuttal you need.

Lol! The beauty being the left deserves as much ridicule as we can possibly dish out.

Same here, though I tried to get in (not her pants, obviously) with a black girl in high school. Her mother was a friendly person, and was otherwise unopposed to such a potential relationship. Not sure why the girl wouldn’t consider it, though. Otherwise, she was a good friend of mine.

The busing was done when I was in grammar school: worst year ever, to put it lightly. By the end of the year, I was the only kid in my class who wasn’t black.

PM me if you want to hear the rest of it.

2 are Caucasian/black, 1 is Caucasian/cuban. 1 just Caucasian. We don’t know what #5 is. And they are the most beautiful/handsome of kids. The first 2’s mom is a beauty herself, model beautiful.

I have those to. Hopefully I’ll have 1 less in a few months. As long as the divorce goes in my son’s favor.

I’d say it’s time to clean house of them.

Grandson was assigned an AD Litim as he is 13. To bad they don’t drug test the parents. His mom would show positive for 2 script mind benders, a anti depression drug, and long term Xanax usage, legal and illegally, along with MMJ usage. Mental instability to boot. Son is a Type 2 diabetic, and beyond smoking takes only his diabetes meds.

If they education tested, she is totally remedial ed, quit at 14, did OTJ training for CNA with her mom was grandfathered in. Never had a course or testing.

Grandson at 13 has more education than she does. She can’t even read instructions on a box to fix a box mix.

Says I’m rich. ROFLOL NO one who lives on SS is rich! And the IRA can’t be accessed until 72.5. Then I’m smart, what little I have, I tied every thing up in Trust funds.
