"Real talk: Daniel Rubin has a great little piece up wherein he chats with The Field Negro, the Philly-based blogger who sharply ponders all things black on a daily basis. (Seriously, if you’ve never checked in with TFN, you should: Its author, Wayne Bennett, is a fantastic read who can cut through bullshit like a hot knife through butter, which is a far grosser analogy than I wanted to make, but there you have it.)"

"To white people, Bennett's musings are like kitchen-table talk from a kitchen they may otherwise never set foot in. To African Americans, he is part of a growing army of black Internet amateurs who have taken up the work once reserved for ministers and professional activists: the work of setting a black agenda, shaping black opinion and calling attention to the state of the nation's racial affairs."

"That's why I love the blog "Field Negro" so much. Field, as he's known to his fans, has the sense of reality that it takes to call out the (CowPuckey) of blame beating by those who are in positions of power and their lackeys. Because of his handle and his unabashed way of writing about racial issues, Field is often cited as a "Black blogger." What he is, however, is a first-class detector of blame deflection and an excellent student of history. If you want to write about the past and future of repression there's really no other perspective to take - which is why everyone should read Field."

"I had no idea, for example, of the extent of the African-American blogging world out there and its collective powers of dissemination.But now, after reading thousands of anguished, thoughtful comments posted on these blogs reflecting on issues of persistent racial discrimination in the nation's schools and courtrooms, what's clear to me is that there's a new, "virtual" civil rights movement out there on the Internet that can reach more people in a few hours than all the protest marches, sit-ins and boycotts of the 1950s and 60s put together."

"There are some fringe creationists in the Republican party, but almost all Democrats are liberal creationists who don't believe in evolution."
Dumbest post ever. No wonder he's a repub.
----
I am a Republican because I am smarter than you.
Liberals don't believe in human evolution.
Ever since the first modern humans dispersed from the ancestral homeland in northeast Africa over 100,000 years ago, the populations on each continent have evolved largely independently of one another as each adapted to its regional environment. Because of these divisions in the human population, anyone interested in recent human evolution is almost inevitably studying human races, whether they wish to or not.
But Liberalism denies that there are any differences between races, even go so far as to deny that race is even a valid concept.
Race isn’t just skin deep. In fact, the visual differences between races are less significant than the behavioral. Evolution’s strategy for adapting to radically different environments is to keep the human body much the same but change the social behavior.
It's quite obvious that Africans and Europeans have different demeanors and abilities, yet modern Liberalism insists that these two groups must have identical outcomes both in achievement and in failure and that this equality of conditions must be enforced by the government.
Liberals deny human evolution; they believe that despite 3,000 generations of being apart, all human minds are exactly the same. They are creationists who demand that we embrace falsehoods in defense of the Liberal belief system, thereby leading us away from the scientific truth.
We are all equal as human beings, but different in abilities and desires. Radical liberal equalitarianism, which labels these differences as injustice is a war on truth.
@ Republicans Are Smarter:
You make sense and I've often wondered about that also as I've always had an interest in anthropology.
The different physical qualities seen are also in order to adapt to environment.
For example in Middle Eastern people the nose is generally more hooked and larger/longer, so that the fine sand particles that make it through the head and face cloth can be filtered before entering the lungs. Also in the desert at night the longer nostrils have more surface to heat the air to body temp before it enters the lungs which is a bodily necessity. Just as one example.
But as for cultural, my thoughts are that doesn't mean that given the same opportunity in a different environment, any person from any place can adapt up or down as the case may demand,and rise to the occasion.
It's when the social and economic circumstance are manipulated and made unequal that there is difficulty in adaptation.
Just my two cents.
Lilac, we know you are from Iran, living in PR, pretending to be pro-FN.
Just got a call from your father. The 'fix' is in.
Very funny hahaha! But no I am Middle Easterner (not Irani)like one fifth and the rest is other nationality's but it doesn't matter for I am great! and that's all that matters.
*runs away making the ululating sound used in cheering and war *
Careful, Jew. This is how I aim.

I would argue that the manipulation is coming from those who argue from the standpoint of "social justice".
From A Troublesome Inheritance: Genes, Race and Human History, by Nicholas Wade:
African populations have not gone through the same Malthusian wringer that shaped the behavior of the European and East Asian populations. Between 1200 and 1800, the English, adapting to the harsh pressures of an intense agrarian economy, became less violent, more literate and more willing to save for the future. In Africa, population pressure has long been much lower than in Europe and Asia …
Europeans have been adapted by evolution to meet European cultural requirements. There was a very high level of executions in the Middle Ages and Renaissance era that removed the most violent criminals from the population.
European cultures tried to keep population below the famine level by inculcating the sexual restraint and romantic choosiness conducive to relatively late marriages, while East Asian cultures cultivated grinding work ethics. In most of tropical Africa, however, the infectious disease burden was so lethal that dense populations could not be achieved due to epidemics. So the population could not form cities, nor even fully farm the countryside. The big danger in Africa was not Malthusian overpopulation, but underpopulation, which may account for persistent differences in sexual behavior.
Not surprisingly, each continent’s culture seems to have bred people befitting its environment, and their traits live on in their descendants in modern America.
Of course humans are very adaptable and most individuals can successfully navigate the requirements of whatever culture they find themselves in, to greater or lesser degrees. However, when you look at large groups, obviously there are going to be significant differences in how they do.
If you deny these differences, if instead you label it as an injustice that must be remedied, you will cause more harm than good.
Knowledge is usually considered a better basis for policy than ignorance.
Dear Lilac, how old are you? and please post a photo of yourself. People would like to know what a middle-easterner, PR and African looks like.
Show me that bitch who parks herself at the prominent position on every State Of The Union Address, and takes a TAX-Payer paid drive with a limousine ride from her house to two blocks to her tax-payer office.
@Republicans are Smarter 12:41:
Very interesting and I agree with certain ponts of this except for the over all sense that I'm getting that certain groups are just smarter than others. I really can't subscribe to that theory because of the situations of colonization etc that have occurred.
When Castro took over Cuba he made it a point to educate the black underclas and made them into doctors and other professionals. They were also trained by the Russians with equally good results if not better.
When King Leopold took over the mines of Africa he was very sadistic, cutting off the hands and feet of the toddlers so they could not liberate themselves. I'm sure you have read of this barbary.
I cannot believe that these situations would not affect a people in a very negative way.
So I feel one must look at all angles before declaring these theory's to be scientific facts.
This is a very interesting conversation and I will look into that book. But unfortunately it is 3:30 am here and I must get my beauty rest. :) So good night all until tomorrow God willing,

That's pretty funny coming from a socialist.
"I wonder what the world thinks of Obama not attending?"
Obama is smart for not attending; this rally will be a steaming pile of nothing. No one will even admit that Islam is to blame, no one will even stop to wonder if mass immigration from a non-assimilating culture that is hostile to your ideals and way of life is such a good idea.
Ever since George W. Bush refused to name the enemy and instead declared war on their technique, the West hs been unable halt the advance of radical Islam.
History never ends. This was never a war on "Terror", this is a war between two cultures who have been at it for 1,400 years. Just because one side won't admit doesn't mean the other side will stop.
The refusal of Western leaders to let reality compete with ideology will have tragic consequences for the peoples of Europe.
"That's pretty funny coming from a socialist."

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1FJME4bD6jQ#t=183
Anytime sentences start off with "I don't mean it as criticism of Obama" the truth is being spun.
Anyone with any knowledge of Statement Analysis knows that everything before the word "but" is meaningless.
If not the Obama administration, which world leaders from America did Jake Tapper think should have been representing America?

As world leaders march in Paris, US represented by ambassador
...
US Attorney General Eric Holder, who was in Paris Sunday to attend a meeting of interior and justice ministers discussing measures to combat jihadist attacks, was meant to have participated in the rally according to the White House on Saturday, but did not do so, the US embassy in Paris confirmed.
The embassy did not say why Holder did not attend the march. It said the United States was represented in the huge rally by its ambassador to France, Jane Hartley.
http://news.yahoo.com/world-leaders-march-paris-us-represented-ambassador-192240532.html
At least Ambassador Jane Hartley was available.
President Obama on Friday nominated Jane Hartley, a top campaign fundraiser and former Carter administration official, as the United States' next ambassador to France.
http://www.usatoday.com/story/news/politics/2014/06/06/nancy-hartley-ambassador-france/10081391/
Representing the United States on the world stage is someone that helped collect $$ for Obama's campaign.
I agree, America's top cop would have been a better choice than a campaign fundraiser.
I have a serious question for 'everyone' on FN, including Bill and Kinky:
Do you believe we are losing the war with Islam or not? I mean, Bin Laden wanted a religious war between Islam and the Judeo-Christian religion.
I don't know about you, but it sure looks like it's headed that way, if not already here.
FP, your insightful wisdom on this matter would be greatly appreciated.
I mean, Al-Quatar, ISIS and Islam seem to be getting stronger, not weaker. And Islam remains silent, but appears to support the Jihad movement by their silence.
God help us if/when Islam Jihadists come to America. They may already be here. They seem to pick and choose when to hit without giving a clue.
The other scary thing is Islam seems to be growing in members right here in America. Remember Oklahoma? The beheadings?
Are we like France? unable to stop them?
FP, is there something in the Scriptures about this? For the life of me I don't know why our ministers aren't speaking about this? This is serious stuff.

Thank you! Please let me know when you post the photo. I am so very anxious to see you.
Is there anyway you can block Kinky from seeing you? I mean, can this be an all Black thing?
I read somewhere that a brother developed an app that blocks racists. We are really getting pretty advanced in our technology.
Maybe Field and PC can help with this? Come to think of it, Bill should be blocked out also....
but not WC or Cali Girl. Those two prove that there is very little, if 'none', in CA.
Does anybody know where Kinky is from, MS? What about Bill?
Field, when you pay your bill, there will be an upgrade in Anons. Until then, the shit is just going to get worse.
Actually Mr. Anon Inc. your peeps had some great captions and comments today. Things started going downhill with Bill and his idiotic comments about the president not attending this beautiful march in Paris.
I am sure thst the Secret Service would have just loved it if the president (all 6" plus of him) was leading that march with other works leaders.
Bill, u are really starting to let your wingnuttry get the better of you.
Obama has nothing to fear from Muslims. He's the one who has promised them the future.

Strange you think Obama would be in danger in Paris but not other leaders.
You do know this is Paris France and not Paris Texas right?
Bill, u are really starting to let your wingnuttry get the better of you.
You keep saying it, I keep asking, you keep ducking...
Besides for mocking dumbocrats, why do you think I'm a rethuug? Me being pro choice, pro gay marriage, pro drugs put me in the rethug party?
