#BlackConservatism isn't "lily-white" conservatism.

"Authentic black conservatism has always had the fundamental and explicit goal of opposing white supremacy."

— Kareim Oliphant

#BlackConservatives

If Burkean conservatism is a response to the French Revolution; African or Black conservatism, emerges out of, and in response to the Transatlantic Slave Trade.

Reaching back across the centuries, this program sheds light on historical attitudes toward human differences.

Anthony Bogues, Brown University: What is Racial Slavery?

What is racial slavery and how is it different from other forms of slavery?



#RacialSlavery
#WhiteSupremacy
"The Atlantic slave trade was well under way before there even was such a thing as the “Black Race” or the “White Race,” both previously being a host of various nationalities, ethnicities, religions, cultures, languages, and phenotypical features."

Never forget or minimize this...

“the system of racialised perpetual hereditary chattel slavery that was developed in the New World by Europeans has NO EQUIVALENT
in history."

The Conservative Roots of #BlackHistoryMonth

"Arguably one of the cleverest artifices of white supremacy is the thorough scrubbing out of African civilization and human existence before contact with Europeans."

— Dr. Chidike Okeem

"When oppression and subjugation are falsely presented as the genesis of black human identity, it provides a pseudo-intellectual justification for the marginalization of black people both on the African continent and in the diaspora."

"Moreover, it provides a justification for self-hatred among black people who are not taught any better."

#NeverForget

#WhiteNationalism is an abomination.

It was a movement so BARBARIC and DISSIMILAR in world history, that men had to find a new word to describe its satanic conduct.

The word that was settled upon' #Genocide

The #ArmenianGenocide started in 1915

The Holocaust 1941 and 1945.

But, before those two genocides trsanspired, one happened in Africa: "It took place between 1904 and 1908"

Filibuster is a perilous wedge lodged in the heart of our politics

"How could a country [Germany] so highly developed, cultured, and educated descend from a functioning democracy to a full-blown dictatorship in just a few years?"
bostonglobe.com/2021/10/30/opi… via @BostonGlobe
Is the Filibuster Just?

Does the Filibuster expand liberty or will it take it away?

The AFRICAN father of WESTERN theology whispering to another AFRICAN.

“Lex iniusta non est lex"

'An UNJUST law, is NO LAW AT ALL.’

You have to make the MORAL case against the filibuster -- not the procedural problems with it.
