Where are the white women at?
Oh, BLM is mainly white fascists.
Never mind.
they witnessed Madonna weeping and crawling across the floor,
to kiss the feet of black Jesus,
who had just been beaten by a gang of white boys ...
several times per day, day after day after day ...
2 Timothy 3:1-7
1 But know this, that in the last days perilous times will come:
2 For men will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy,
3 unloving, unforgiving, slanderers, without self-control, brutal, despisers of good,
4 traitors, headstrong, haughty, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God,
5 having a form of godliness but denying its power. And from such people turn away!
6 For of this sort are those who creep into households and make captives of gullible women loaded down with sins, led away by various lusts,
7 always learning and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth.
It worked out real well for Nicole Brown Simpson.
First of all they almost certainly aren’t anyone’s mother. They are just claiming so. I doubt most are even related to anyone protesting. It’s political theater.
Secondly remember FReepers that married white women supported Trump
last election. As I remember the only female demographic group to do so. So easy on us mmkay
What’s a matter honey, don’t you like black people.?

I recognize a lot of the so-called “moms” as the same antifa women who dressed in black as recent as a couple days ago. They just put on a yellow shirt now for optics. Most of these people aren’t mothers & many don’t even identify as female. #PortlandRiots

It’s these mind numb robot women who elected Ilhan Omar.
for the most part, FakeNewsMSM is refusing to link BLM to “climate” activists/Dems/Green New Deal, yet the truth is hiding in plain sight:
15 Jun: Inside Climate News: For the Sunrise Movement’s D.C. Hub, a Call to Support the Movement for Black Lives
Members of the Washington chapter say they want to fully integrate racial justice into all of their work on climate change and the Green New Deal.
By RACHEL FRITTS
A week and a half after George Floyd was killed by a police officer in Minneapolis, the Sunrise Movement’s D.C. hub hosted a discussion over Zoom titled, “How to Take Action for Black Lives.”
Over 50 local members of the youth-led climate activism group joined the call to discuss how they could best show up to support Washington’s protests against police brutality. They also discussed how they could improve racial equity within their own organization.
“Literally all we’re doing right now is deciding how best to show up for the Movement for Black Lives in every way possible,” Naeem Alam, a D.C. hub coordinator and co-organizer of the discussion, said later in an interview...
The Sunrise Movement, made up of a series of local hubs in cities all over the U.S., is best known for its role in crafting the Green New Deal, which its website describes as “a 10-year plan to mobilize every aspect of American society to 100% clean and renewable energy by 2030, a guaranteed living-wage job for anyone who needs one, and a just transition for both workers and frontline communities.”
The group launched in April 2017 and rose to national prominence during the 2018 midterm elections as it endorsed and heavily campaigned for an unknown Queens bartender named Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and other young progressive candidates supportive of the far-reaching climate manifesto...
In February 2019, Ocasio-Cortez, then a newly elected House member, and Sen. Edward J. Markey of Massachusetts introduced the Green New Deal as a congressional resolution...
It might seem strange for an activist group championing climate change solutions to turn all its attention towards an issue with no obvious connection to fossil fuel emissions. But systemic issues like climate change and racism should not be in separate silos, said Whitney Tome, executive director of a green diversity initiative launched in 2014 called Green 2.0.
Research has shown that non-white people are more concerned about the threat of climate change and more vulnerable to its consequences. Black communities are more likely to be located near coal plants and less likely to have access to clean air or drinking water than white communities...
“The reason that I joined SUNRISE in particular is because SUNRISE seems to be one of the few groups focusing on this issue that was really taking racial and economic justice into account in an explicit way,” Alam said.
Alam, 22, first got involved with the SUNRISE MOVEMENT in January 2019, while he was an undergraduate electrical engineering major at the University of Maryland. “Ever since I was a kid, I had an understanding that unless we switch to renewable energy, these fossil fuels are going to destroy our planet,” he said...
Crystal Gong, 23, is Alam’s fellow hub coordinator and co-organizer of the June 3 Zoom call on how best to support the Black Lives Matter demonstrations. She grew up near D.C. in northern Virginia and graduated from the University of Virginia in 2018.
A food ethics class she took in college ignited her passion for environmental activism...
During the “Taking Action for Black Lives” discussion, the D.C. hub’s members talked about how they could better integrate racial justice into their actions. Their dialogue was informed by a script sent to all regional hubs by national Sunrise leadership. It covered topics including how to contextualize the current moment through historic movements for black lives, how to effectively take action through donations, mutual aid and protesting, and how to talk to friends and family about race...
Gong opened the meeting by addressing this fact head-on: “For a movement that claims to fight for black and brown workers of the Green New Deal, shun the history of white environmentalism, especially a movement in Chocolate City, we sure are white,” she said.
Of the 52 Sunrise members at the meeting, only two were black...
“It’s not going to be possible to have a Green New Deal ... unless we address these underlying issues of racism,” Alam said. “This country is only 60% white. Do we really think that we can have enough mobilization in this country—in all parts of this country—if we’re writing off 40% of the country’s population? I personally don’t think so.”

10 July: Inside Climate News: Q&A: An Environmental Justice Champion’s Journey From Rural Alabama to Biden’s Climate Task Force
Catherine Coleman Flowers gained acclaim as an activist fighting for wastewater treatment in Lowndes County, Alabama.
By Ilana Cohen
In 2019, she founded the Center for Rural Enterprise and Environmental Justice, a successor to the Alabama Center for Rural Enterprise. The non-profit organization seeks to address the root causes of rural poverty.
Today, Flowers is a senior fellow of environmental justice and civic engagement at the Center for Earth Ethics at Union Theological Seminary, and a rural development manager for the Equal Justice Initiative...
Flowers is also one of three women of color and the only Black woman to serve on the Biden task force on climate change, which is co-chaired by New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and former Secretary of State John Kerry and includes Sunrise Movement co-founder Varshini Prakash...
In a recent interview, she spoke about her path to activism, her new book, her experience on the Biden task force and how her work has been influenced by the Covid-19 pandemic and nationwide protests for racial justice.
This transcript has been lightly edited for clarity...
Catherine Coleman Flowers: It warms my heart when I look out and see the protests and I see people of all races participate ... put their bodies and lives on the line together to make sure Black lives matter. I was watching MSNBC when the protestors were attacked in front of the White House, and it reminded me of Standing Rock because what I saw in the actions that took place was that the people who got on the front of the lines that would feel the brunt of the police attacks were young white people, and they put people of color in the center to protect them. I’m seeing the same thing now and that gives me so much hope, because we’re all in this together...
White supremacy is coming to an end, and we’re going to really bring forth that beloved community that Dr. King talked about. I see it starting to manifest, and young people are leading that movement...

NYT grooming black girls, so Sunrise ain’t so white:
26 Jun: NYT: These Teen Girls Are Fighting for a More Just Future
Like legions of Black women before them, these four young activists are building a better tomorrow.
Interview by Jessica Bennett
In San Ramon, Calif., Tiana Day, 17, led a Black Lives Matter protest across the Golden Gate Bridge, after responding to a post on Instagram from another young woman, Mimi Zoila, 19. (Ms. Zoila, who is white, had secured a permit for the protest, but was looking for someone from the Black community to lead it. Ms. Day sent her a message.) Ms. Day thought “something like 50 people would show up.” There were thousands, stretching for miles...
And from her bedroom in St. Louis, where she lives with her parents while on break from college, Brianna Chandler, 19, was using social media to organize a teach-in for local high school and college students to learn about racial justice. Two older activists called in, including Cori Bush, who is running for Congress; another girl, part of a local arts troupe, read a poem about police brutality.
“I think that educating people is essential to movement building,” said Ms. Chandler, who is also active in the SUNRISE MOVEMENT, a youth-led climate justice organization.
Teen girls have long been at the forefront of social progress. Think Malala Yousafzai, Emma González or Greta Thunberg.
So have Black women. It was three Black women — Patrisse Khan-Cullors, Alicia Garza and Opal Tometi — who founded the Black Lives Matter organization...
These teenagers are stepping up to continue that legacy...

Interesting. Orwell really had a clue.
Just dug out “1984” from the basement today. Last time I read it was 1974. Upset then with the book but wasn’t sure exactly why.
I suspect I’ll view a bit differently now. Lol!!!
They aren’t mothers, they just changed their shirts from black to yellow. Hell, they aren’t even women.
Reason #2,014 why I married a Taiwanese man: everything is the white American woman’s fault. First we hear from the Left how we are evil oppressors of racial minorities. Then we hear from the Right how we are the Left’s foot soldiers. The only way to “win” that game is not to play at all.
I work for a living, keep myself fit, and still do the majority of the housework. I have never had sex with any other man. I don’t believe in divorce except in cases of abuse or infidelity. What the American man calls “feminist oppression” because it involves a marriage license and an American woman my husband calls “a damned good deal”.
Orwell understood the female need of acceptance.
That is a passage from “1984” that enters my mind often these days.
One cannot help notice in my part of the country that there seems to be a disproportionate share of young, high school and college females involved in this.
I drove by a church (yes a church, Universalist Unitarian, but ostensibly...a church) that has had a giant Black Lives Matter banner hanging over its entrance) and they had young high school girls out near the road with car wash signs to raise money. The young girls were joyfully jumping up and down and cheering at passing cars, looking to all the world like they were raising money for their cheerleading program.
They were raising money for BLM.
And I see this mix in town squares around here-a young black guy, some young white guy or two, a bunch of school age girls, and a few older women and an occasional older hippie looking guy or two.
But a disproportionate number of young women. And I am not the only one noticing this.
I suspect it is for a variety of reasons, but one of them in many cases is this hole in them that needs filling, IMO.
I read that book about every two years.
A bit scary.
It is true that time will alter many viewpoints.
When I was nine or ten, I went to the Benny Decker Theater on the Yokosuka Naval Base and saw “Dr. Zhivago”. I thought it was the most boring movie with a few exceptions.
I just rewatched it a year or two ago, and enjoyed it immensely. Saw it in quite a different light.
Especially the scene where Dr. Zhivago comes home from the war to find his family’s home “requisitioned” by the local communist party committee.
You just described every year the human race has existed in one country or another. You guys never give up :-)
How about putting the Good Book down for a second and actually helping instead of desperately waiting for end times :-)
She was an interesting writer.
