Folks,

We are very tolerant on this board. There are hardly any rules. Please don't use questionable terms or context when it comes to race. That is all!

Thank you,
:thumbsup:

I think this thread needs another boost today.

I pray that one day, you whites will embrace what is right.

"Racism" is the first word used to silence debate. It only silences the weaklings though.

That looks like one of the most scholarly tomes on this subject that I've seen. Thanks for the suggestion; I'll definitely add it to my library.

I was laughing at that education video on this fellow's website...and from what I've read he seems to have a refreshing take on this subject. Let me know what you think of that book. I've got such a reading backlog now it'll be months before I can get to it.

Speaking of Racism:

Nazi Garden Gnomes?

Excerpt from Deutsche Welle, Alles Hauptgewicht ist mein Selbst:

Nazi garden gnomes spark controversy
Großansicht des Bildes mit der Bildunterschrift: Heil garden gnome!

Over 1,000 gnomes raising their right arms in a Hitler salute have taken over a square in a German town. The artist who made them says they're a warning about the manipulation of the masses inherent in fascist ideology.

A collection of controversial garden gnomes, whose stubby right arms are raised in a Hitler salute, went on display in the Bavarian town of Straubing on Wednesday. The display, entitled "Poisoned," consists of 1,250 saluting gnomes arranged in rank and file. Most of the figures are black plastic, but about 20 are painted shiny gold.

German artist Ottmar Hoerl said the installation was a protest of lingering fascist tendencies in German society.
...

Something about 'manipulating the masses' reminds me of Chairman Maobama and his vacuous yet soaring rhetoric of nothingness that so many folk bought into...just saying...

But I digress, here's the full article...in English:
