Before I get into this post, I want to acknowledge the blogger, African American Pundit, and thank him for the wonderful work that he has been doing with the Recy Taylor story. I reached out to a few bloggers about the injustice this woman suffered many years ago, but so far Rock is the only one to really get on board. I hope that some of you other bloggers of color will look into her story and leave posts on your sites as well.
So it's President's Day here in A-merry-ca, and although white folks love to cast Negroes as Presidents, -----from Eddie Murphy to Blair Underwood--- we have only had one real black President in these divided states. (Well, a half one at least.) And, because he has been the first, he has been getting a lot of (unfair) pressure from you black folks to deliver. Like Janet Jackson, you want to know what he has done for you lately. Well, I have no problem telling you Negroes that he has done as much for you as he could. He is, after all, the President of all A-merry-cans. You Negroes can only get so much.
His O-ness is facing a very troubled world, and here on the home front the opposition party is over- reaching. They are trying to break unions in Wisconsin, and threatening to shut down the government if they don't get their way. It's not easy being president of these divided states. No wonder the poor guy gets a Day.
Finally, no matter how my girl Beyonce tries to go....ahem, white , it seems that there are still some folks who just won't let her forget that her ass is black. Yes Beyonce, you might as well just embrace your blackness. Just think, if you do, you might get a chance to play the president one day in a movie.

The Recy Taylor case is another example of how blacks avoid the present and fail to confront huge problems in black culture.
Rather than study the reasons for the success of the Urban Academy in Chicago that got 100% of its all-black, all-male seniors into college, the nitwits want to stop the world until something, something, something is done to settle an alleged rape case that war purported to have occurred September 3, 1944.
Apparently the black world cannot go forward until this unprosecutable case is somehow adjudicated. Once again, blacks prove they believe they are hostages of the past.
As difficult as life for blacks may have been in Taylor's town in 1944, the situation was better in 1954 and still better in 1964, 1974, 1984, 1994, 2004.
However, as we know, blacks will go to extraordinary lengths to focus on an alleged crime involving white perpetrators and black victims, no matter how long ago the alleged crime occurred. but there is decidedly less popular desire among the black community to prosecute blacks who who prey on other blacks. It's that "stop snitchin'" code that says so much.

AB: That's an impressive list of unimpressive blurbs you have there.
"Banks' program combines the voices of Dinah Washington and Billie Holiday with tribal songs, fictional readings, erotica, and political discussions"
Tribal songs,fictional readings, and erotica? How did that ever go off the air?
Have you done anything since the 1990's? Maybe it's time for an update.
@no_slappz
That stop snitching sounds familiar, it almost sounds like Omerta.
Now slappz do I have to name people that whites have abused with tazers or name R&B stars that died in jail because of the police?
Heaard of Sean Levert?
Global Warming? Utter silliness.
It's gotten so bad for the Global Warming boneheads that they've changed the name of the process to something that might, just might contain a hint of truth.
Now it's: Climate Change.
Nothing like a firm grasp of the obvious. As if there's ever a time when the climate is NOT changing.
Anyway, fear not. When it comes to death threats, Climate Change is not on the list.
Dirty water, a long list of preventable diseases, wars and brutal dictatorships are wiping out millions of people every year. Right now. Last year, this year and next year.
Climate change death toll? ZERO.
Climate change death toll a hundred years hence: in 2111? Another ZERO.
The morons of the world will eventually come around to the understanding that IF the atmosphere warms up a couple of degrees, the air will hold more water, which will fall from the sky as it always has -- as rain. But when there's more water vapor in the air, more rain can fall, and that means more water for more crops.
Have you noticed how incompetent Egyptian farmers are? They've got the Nile River for irrigation, but even with all that water, the Egyptians cannot grow enough food to feed themselves. There's only 80 million people in that country. But they have to import a lot of food.
It's that muslim incompetence that does it every time. Anyway, if there were some competent irrigation people and some agriculture experts in Egypt, the country would become a net exporter of food.
If Egypt got that far AND more water began falling from the sky, much of the nation might become fertile land for growing.
Lots of possibilities. The Sahara and the Kalahari might become fields bursting with crops rather than the scorched earth they are today.
Imagine Africa with no food problems. With clean water? The population would explode. But you nitwits want to worry about the air temperature, as though you can see something bad about slightly warmer weather.

Oh. As if federal prosecutors have failed to put mafia guys in jail. The mafia may not be quite dead, but like other union-like organizations, it ain't what it used to be.
Now slappz do I have to name people that whites have abused with tazers or name R&B stars that died in jail because of the police?
Yeah. Name them all. Then compare that number with the number of blacks who have been murdered by other black over the time interval of your choice.
Once again, you are a nitwit who wants to avoid reality by focusing on insignificant issues.
And by the way, one of Malcolm X's killers was released from prison last year. He now lives in Sunset Park, Brooklyn, not too far from me.
Even though his murder by fellow black muslims was caught on film and his killers caught, you feel a deep need to deny the facts.
Denial. That's one of black America's biggest problems.
needs slaps:
a blind bigot like
you advising any race about denial
is akin to mareally a swirled whore advising jungle fevered white sluts about the perils of interracial maytag sex.

dumbdownsteve, you wrote:

There are a million blacks in prison because they were caught and prosecuted.
What I wrote about was the "stop snitchin" attitude and the general acceptance of crime among the black population. But, because you are a dummy, you seem to have missed that part.
As I said, there's a lot of emotion over Recy Taylor's alleged rape because it may have been perpetrated by whites in 1944.
In your mind, it apparently makes sense to devote law enforcement efforts to clear that case rather than catching perpetrators of recent crimes.
You're an imbecile.

Interesting that climatologists at NOAA say 2010 was one of the warmest years on record. And Slapzz, yes warmer air does hold more water vapor but some areas would possibly become more arid. The overall avergae temp is increasing but the term was changed to climate variation because some areas would possibly experience colder winters in response to certain feedbacks. No "liberal" attempt to mislead anyone.
Unless you have a degree in atmospheric science your opinion isn't worth much Slappy and SPC. Conservative types aren't really good at understanding science. Thing is we don't know what the effect of increased CO2 will have in the future but the vast majority of climatologists, geologists and meteorologists don't think it will be good. In essence if the best and brightest minds don't know what will happen why should we believe a few conservatrolls that get their science knowledge from Rush Limbaugh. But that was funny, more water vapor more crops.......you guys are a laughg a minute.
Hey Slappz, I got a question for ya. You say if the temps increase a few degrees then there will be more water vapor that will fall as rain. What causes rain? Why would the incresed water vapor necessarily fall as rain? If evaporation and precipitation occor due to temp differentials wouldn't it also be reasonable that there wouldn't be an increase in temp differentials as all temps would be rising? Couldn't there be a decrease in precipitation due to fewer temp gradients? Ah, so many variables in weather that the average conservatroll doesn't consider.
http://www.ametsoc.org/policy/2007climatechange.html
Wondering what your thoughts on this are Slappz.
@Steve, apparently Slappz has no clue that things in our lives are not mutually exclusive. Yes, we can work to get justice for Mrs. Taylor AND work to reduce crime on our own communities. I like how it focuses on Urban Academy but just a few days ago wasn't it attacking successful Black schools in Chicago? This troll is bi-polar or something and now it's a atmospheric scientist too. Humor trolls are a riot these days. That's good, I need a few laughs.
@ SPC, you only look at the negatives as far as those who do not vote Republican. I live in the inner city and myself and my neighbors are middle-class professionals. How about conservative areas like Mississippi, Alabama, West Virginia, ect. that have high teen pregnancy, low literacy scores and high poverty rates? To me it doesn't seem that conservatives have all the answers either huh? And are you really still on the Dems=KKK nonsense? Ask a current Klan member and see if they still belong to the Democratic Party. That argument alone should exclude you from being taken seriously.
"The Recy Taylor case is another example of how blacks avoid the present and fail to confront huge problems in black culture."
Exactly how does this statement correlate to the fact that a Black woman was sexually assaulted by several White men during a time which Blacks had little to no recourse to pursue in the justice system? How does relate to a so-called failure to confront these "huge problems" you speak of?
"Rather than study the reasons for the success of the Urban Academy in Chicago that got 100% of its all-black, all-male seniors into college, the nitwits want to stop the world until something, something, something is done to settle an alleged rape case that war purported to have occurred September 3, 1944."
It's not about "stopping the world", Slapshit. It's about addressing a past injustice that went unpunished for a very, very long time. It's about acknowledging the wrongs perpetrated and doing as much as possible to make things right.
"Apparently the black world cannot go forward until this unprosecutable case is somehow adjudicated. Once again, blacks prove they believe they are hostages of the past."
Why that's mighty white and sexist of you. Of course no one in their right mind would claim that the white world could not go forward until a similar rape case involving a white female could be adjudicated.
Oh wait...there's the Natalee Holloway case. Nancy Grace made sure to hold white America in a static grip for as long as possible. Even years later, a lot of folks can't seem to "move on". Ditto Jon Benet Ramsey.
"As difficult as life for blacks may have been in Taylor's town in 1944, the situation was better in 1954 and still better in 1964, 1974, 1984, 1994, 2004.

It's that "stop snitchin'" code that says so much."
Gee, you really go out on a limb to make Blacks sound like a bunch of shiftless, thuggish Racism-chasers who only go to great lengths to unfairly prosecute Whites while protecting their own. Reminds me of a certain people I know well...hmm....can't put my finger on it...
I guess Recy Taylor should simply forget about the whole ordeal, thank her lucky stars she wasn't killed and live what's left of her life in silence while the city of Abbeville and people all over the state, country and globe, blissfully forget what happened that September in 1944.
Damn, Shitstain. Not only are you a callous fuck when dealing with Black issues, you are a complete shitheel when it comes to rape victims. No wonder people don't have any respect for you here, you stupid son of a bitch. You're eating so much of your own shit I'm surprised you haven't choked on it and died yet.

In the 60's the only groups that J.Edgar Hoover didn't go after was the Klan and the Mafia. Speaking of Mafia and FBI some of the tacits that the Koch Family use are similiar to both groups. Blackmail, election fraud, voter fraud, violence, murder, illegal wiretaps, almost sound like COINTELPRO.
One of the guys that started PUMA and other groups is Larry C. Johnson former CIA agent. Before you state that Morkos Moulitias started Daily Kos, Markos aint shit compared to Johnson. Larry claimed to have the First Lady saying "whitey". Then he had a former accuser of the Clinton's claim that he had sex with the POTUS while he smoked crack. The right DESTROYED ACORN. They almost DESTROYED Shirley Sharrod and the NAACP. My job is to stop "the Brothers and Sisters" from doing any "Second Amendment" solutions, but it makes it hard with you people carrying those machine guns and N-word signs.
When Markos does that to a Republican then we can talk.
@no_slappz
First if you want to reduce crime on all stratas the Koch Family and other rich people could hire people for jobs instead of sitting on that surplus of the most money ever made for businesses.
Most of the rapes in Ireland are caused by the Irish. Does that mean that all Irish are rapist? Get rid of poverty and you get rid of crime. Also most WHITES kill WHITES, BLACKS kill BLACKS, ASIANS kill ASIANS and so on.
Black people don't commit crime because we're black.
Slappy,
"There are a million blacks in prison because they were caught and prosecuted."
How were they caught idiot?
Because the cops were standing there watching them shoot?
"What I wrote about was the "stop snitchin" attitude and the general acceptance of crime among the black population."
You're a stupid racist buffoon.
Let's not even discuss the black cops who investigate crimes and catch criminals. Or the majority black juries in majority black areas who send black criminals to jail every freakin day.
Do you really believe that law abiding working black Americans would let criminals roam free to vicitmize them out of some racial loyalty???
The only people who cover for violent criminals are their associates and scared trapped ghetto residents who fear retaliation.
Don't you ever get tired of making a fool of yourself on this board?
