White Tucker Carlson Guest Says African-Americans ‘Need to Move on’ From Slavery (Video)
Tucker Carlson guest Mark Steyn offered his thoughts and slavery and the issue of reparations to the descendants of U.S. slaves, telling viewers of Carlson’s Fox News show Thursday that nobody living today knew anyone who had been a slave and that people just needed to move on from the whole issue.
“Slavery was abolished a century and a half ago. Nobody alive today had a grandparent who was a slave and in that sense I think you reach a point where, you know, you need to move on,” said, Steyn, a Canadian author and culture commentator who is white. “The reparations thing eventually, as the decades go by, becomes ridiculous.” ...
The moment comes as Carlson faces a months long advertiser boycott after a segment on his show in December in which he said illegal immigration made the United States “poorer” and “dirtier.” Since that episode, major brands like Pacific Life, Red Lobster, SmileDirectClub and dozens of others have pulled ads from the show...

The lily white democrats who did not vote for the civil rights act and one of their leaders in government for many years senator Byrd who was once the leader of the KKK have selected a bunch of African Americans called the black caucus, we call them plantation owners who will control and dish out the goodies that the lily white rats give them. They are their own worst enemy

America is the LEAST racist country on the planet. But as a divide and conquer strategy it works pretty well, everybody has been guilt tripped and worked over for decades, so they reflexively surrender anytime it’s brought up. It is pure poison, because it ruins everything. And that’s the idea when destabilizing a society.
“The worse, the better”.
No. Native American. Born in America.
African Americans aren’t the only Americans who need to move on from slavery.
Ah, got it. White suburban punk then. Just like me.
My dad said the same thing. He said there was a very strong family & church oriented community. The leftists absolutely destroyed all that. The riots and welfare saw to that. What’s remarkable is there are still abandoned buildings from 1965, when people move out, white or black, they ain’t comin’ back. The tax base never recovers. 50+ years!!
Leftism is a plague, or a tornado, or any number of disaster adjectives. It really is.
Sounds par for the course.
Steyn will be feyn. He’s no chump.

Not suburban.
Two words. Cheese biscuits
Thanks for the mention.
Because the Democrats need someone to blame and it can’t be Democrats. Promises for 50 years and African Americans are worse off.
Yes, I agree.
Black Star shipping lines was established by Marcus Garvey to trade with African countries and secondly, to give blacks a way to go back ‘home.’ The Lines collapsed under the expense of maintaining the ships and Marcus was later convicted of mail fraud, which was doubtful.
Well that too, but then we have too many lazy haters too.
Agreed
