Karine: To tell the truth I don’t understand any of this s#@&. Glad they hand me the prompt cards to read.

Who the hell is this “White House” that’s always shootin’ off his big mouth. He sounds like FJB.

The azhos have torn down all our historical statues and monuments. They need to learn about American American studies. If they want to buy stories about the mythical African history, they can go back to Africa.

I have no problems teaching about the history of modern slavery as it goes back some 500 years and originating with the Portuguese due to the fact of their navigation of African waters in the later 1480s-1520s while searching for a route to India. Arabs too need to be included in the despicable trade —Americans (as those of the recently independent country) were the last in line of the trade But one could argue that modern slavery (of the past 500 years) was a European trade with help from others, and that slavery had been practiced for as long as man warred. It was finally the Europeans, namely the British and ultimately the Americans that ended the practice in their countries and colonies.

The residue of slavery is another issue altogether. Quite frankly if Africans were white they would have easily slide into assimilation of society, but because of their obvious difference certain factions could not and would not accept them as equals and perhaps that is where we are today with the former slave masters still cracking the whip over their former properties. It was the abolitionists (the pro lifers of their day) that upset the apple cart. This should be taught in schools. The racism of low expectations and all of that.

I remember the movie where the teacher in Los Angeles taught a bunch of kids of mexican descent high brow math. They said it couldn’t be done but with a good teacher and belief that one can learn, it was so. All kids of ALL backgrounds can learn if it is expected of them

End of rant

“African American studies”...ranks right up there with Womyn’s Studies in terms of turning out careers for people who are self-sufficient taxpayers. /sarc

This is a premeditated Progressivist Diaspora.

The demoncrats are deliberately making life so hard for the citizens of the blue states that they will flee to the red states. This exodus will drive out the lib-tards along with the conservatives, and the Dims know they can spare a few million of their lib-tard base and still stay in power in those states, but it could tip the balance of power in the red states.

Coming from the White House, it means nothing.

It should be nationwide.

DeSantis is putting on a master class on how to be a strong state governor.

The Biden regime is always lying about something.

African American studies are always a cesspool of race-baiting and poverty-pimping.

Courses like those should get minus credits.

Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it.

I prefer European American studies - Armenians, Pakistanis and Afghans are “Caucasians” but don’t consider them part of the western tribe.

He is the leader in that category, among others.
