"read more here" the link is broken

It's fixed. Sorry!

What was really pathetic was the Mayor of Cambridge's press conference (broadcast on CNN) where she didn't say one kind word about the officer, or her police department. It really showed her extreme level of bias. Why would anyone want somebody like that in public office?

kevin,
got your book today, can't to read it.

i hope that it does make me understand why black america votes democrat.

we have two extreme sides on the right and the left. we should never put either side in power. however, the extreme left has control over our government. it is amazing to see the left extremist coming out of their closets. what is amazing are the closets in which they have been hiding, such as our universities, public schools, hate filled preachers, ect., and yes, our president of the united states and his administration.

i pray to our GOD for all americans and that i was born in a great country, with all our faults.

Great piece Kevin.

I also thought Obama only answered the question about Gates because he wants the media(which is in his back pocket) to discuss this matter, instead of his Health Care Plan.

Awesome post!! Keep up the excellent work!

Kevin,

Love your blog. It's now a favorite.

Thanks for picking up this typical white person's spirits.

See, THIS is why Presidents don't get to have Crackberrys. Gates probably sent Obama an SOS text, which Obama stupidly reacted to, only hearing Gates' version of the story. And the rest, as they say, is history. As a wise man once said: Stupid is as stupid does.

I appreciate what southernsue had to say about extremism being hidden within our schools, universities and pulpits. It is time for all of us to stand up against false educational teaching and supposedly Christian ideas! If your child's teachers teach progressivism, then ask them why they do not teach an alternative such as conservatism! If your pastor is preaching to you to accept the idiology of charity, then ask him/her why, when you can be so charitable, no one accepting charity cannot do the same!

This is a prime example in our everyday lives of Affirmative Action Gone Wrong! Give, give, give, give until it hurts! Take, take, take until you know that someone else is hurting for your benefit!

Professor Gates is a prime example of Affirmative Action Gone Wrong. He doesn't know what it is like to be a citizen of the United States. He only knows what it is like to be a black man. Society has given so much to him, deservedly so due to his intelligence, but I believe he feels he is beyond reproach only due to the color of his skin.

What a shame.

OOps.

The line "this is racism talking, this is fact"

Should have read.
This ISN'T racism talking ....

and please excuse other typos.

Hello Birdy - Please get me some info on the blacks wanting to set up their own schools, because they can't keep up! theblacksphere@gmail.com is my email. You had amazing points in your email.

@Anne - As I have said, a smart person ruined by Higher Ed.

@Doug - That press conference was WEAK! What a joke! You know the White House sent "talking points!"

@Southern Sue - Keep me posted on the book!

@49er and Commoncents - Thanks for the props!

@Rick Z - Thanks for the support of the blog! Check out my book, The BIG Black Lie!

@Most Rev - I'm sure your post was honest, and from the heart! That's what matters!

@Laurie - So true! Gates hit the panic button on his crackberry, alerting Obama!

Here are a three links on the topic from Toronto's news. This is a slippery slope. I should mention that there is also a large African population in Ontario from Somalia and other places in Africa of whom many are Muslims, so they don't mix in at all creating yet another problem.

I think the last link is the best ... Here is an excerpt.

The seemingly unthinkable has been approved in the center of the universe:

Tuesday night, the Toronto District School Board said yes to so-called Black-focused schools.
…
Tuesday’s vote actually capped months of heated back-and-forth involving parents, students, teachers and trustees, the end result of which was the board throwing its support behind “four innovative strategies for improving the success of Black students.”
…
The approved strategies include:

* Establishing a Program Area Review Team to recommend the program and operational model for an Africentric Alternative School opening in September 2009;
* Establishing a pilot program in three existing schools integrating the histories, cultures, experiences and contributions of people of African descent and other racialized groups into curriculum, teaching practices and school environment;
* Establishing a Staff Development, Research and Innovation Centre in collaboration with post-secondary institutions and community agencies to assess best practices for improving the success of marginalized and vulnerable students; and
* Developing an action plan for addressing underachievement for all marginalized and vulnerable students.

I forgot ... in answer to your suggestion that it's the blacks wanting the separate system. I am not sure it's coming from them, I think it's coming from the do-gooders on the left who will, as mentioned before ... do whatever it takes to present the appearance that the "Great Mosaic" is functioning smoothly and everyone is happy.

The rotten society in Toronto is well known to most of the clearer thinking citizens in Western Canada. What they have left of the multicultural experience in Ontario is like the thin veneer left after the termites have eaten all the wood inside. It is a hollow place of great pretense and great envy. Our San Fransisco.

Even West Coast Vancouver isn't quite as whacked out, but then Vancouver's competing classes are from India and China, not so many black folks on the West Coast. I believe that as of now, white folks are a minority at least in the lower mainland. Other than the drug gangs, most people in British Columbia get along fine.

But keep your eye on Toronto and Ottawa ... that is where most of the insanity comes from in Canada.
