Actually, in a free country, you don't
have to be anything.
Beside, Angela Davis, who is a terrorist and a murderess, is not morally qualified, to tell others what they must think or do.

Using Angela Davis as the example of racist or Anti-racist is like asking OJ to open a string of women’s shelters.
too many here at FR are not old enough to know about Angela Davis.

Ive never understood why people make such a big deal out of cooking the holiday meal.
For my wife it's "family tradition." She has to cook foods that her grandmother cooked, plus those that her mother made.
And quantities of those foods make it even worse. One year we had 16 adults and 4 kids. Lots of cooking.
Never again.

How about:
I didn’t own any cotton plantations.
My ancestors didn’t own any cotton plantations.
YOU didn’t ever pick any cotton.
Your immediate family didn’t pick any cotton.
Unlikely that ANY of your ancestors EVER picked cotton.
SO SHUT UP.

1-4 will inevitably lead to how Liberals ruined them.

She ain't invited into our home for Thanksgiving dinner, so thanks but NO THANKS!
And if someone else at our Thanksgiving dinner started that crap at the dinner table, they would be asked to leave.
Thanksgiving is a time for family, not to fix this woman's racial hang-ups.

How about not discussing race, politics, or sexual orientation at all on Thanksgiving?

There is a reason we don’t associate with lefties. They don’t even have a clue how to have a family gathering. The truth probably is being a large family of Trump supporting conservatives any lefties that were associating with us no longer do. We are all good with that.

Quoting Angela Davis is not a good way to open dialogue with anyone outside of the Black Panthers.

Shows how single-minded-racist-obsessed they are...who in the hell considers how to discuss racism at any dinner table?
