Every Black Mississippi senator walked out as white colleagues voted to ban critical race theory

[zod16]

Every Black Mississippi senator walked out of the chamber Friday, choosing not to vote on a bill that sponsors said would prohibit the teaching of critical race theory in the state’s public schools and colleges and universities.

The historic, unprecedented walkout came over a vote on the academic theory that state education officials and Republican lawmakers acknowledge is not even taught in Mississippi. Republicans hold supermajority control of the Senate, meaning they can pass any bill without a single Democratic vote.

“We walked out as a means to show a visible protest to these proceedings,” state Sen. John Horhn, D-Jackson, said of the unprecedented action.

Respect to those who walked out on this bullshit. Fully expect for this to be the wedge issue du jour going forward.

Afraid so. There's another brothers - buuuut some got priors that would prohibit them from voting , or just don't care enough to even bother .

Sad. Mississippi 40% Black too. Imagine if half of the black population of NYC migrated to Mississippi, they would be in the majority.

What is walking out gonna do?

 

[Politic Negro]

What is walking out gonna do?

If they stayed and voted 'No', would we be having this conversation?

No. but what I wanna know is what is walking out gonna do?

Amazing that CTR was even a thing. We get that shit by default in school when we talking about American history.

Which is the main reason they have been trying to rewrite history. Texas school books on the Atlantic Slave trade...

That's up to their constituents.

Hmm well I guess we gotta wait to here what's gonna happen next.

Not just Texas. The American history curriculum across the country is down playing slavery and English literature is still pushing Anne Frank and other holocaust related stories on kids.

They talk about slavery and Indians are people that were just there. Like what white folks were doing on a daily basis wasn’t evil as fuck. They hide it behind all the wars as a sign of patriotism.

 

[bgbtylvr]

What is walking out gonna do?

Facts. Show they mad? White folks don’t care if we are butt hurt. They eat off that shit. Vote. Show up at meetings. Own your community.

 

[sinistercane]

Stop sending your son to play fir ole miss and miss st

Shit is insane and main reason you need to be heavily involved in your kids education. Imagine your kids bringing this home?

Man, I’m wishing my daughter brings that home. The level of “IN” I’d be doing would be criminal.

I get being from the South and wanting to stay near home but until they rebranded, the Ole Miss mascot was literally based on a blind Black man that they reimagined into a white confederate named Colonel Reb. No difference between this shit and the "monuments" the daughters of the confederacy put up everywhere.

Man, I’m wishing my daughter brings that home. The level of “IN” I’d be doing would be criminal.

This was the warning on Alabama text books a while back.

Well that's one issue, personally I consider this a bigger issue when you have these so-called scholars like "Skip" the truth Gates and bastards like Hobama who try to reclasify Black people as immigrants.

It ain't like you Northern niggas have it any better. All northern white people do is give y'all some vaseline.

What's the difference between them not voting on this vs the Every day Black person refusing to do this on election day?

Why not?
The black population has the numbers, if they voted. Georgia is now a purple state, so could be Mississippi. Show up for ever election, all counties, all cities.

 

[hardawayz16]

To make sure our kids will always view themselves as victims

and to make white kids feel guilt and responsibility for our well being

Ughh

Is that what it is? When you say victims what exactly do you mean. Cause, I keep hearing this victim thing from whites and some blacks. What exactly do you mean when you say victim? Can you give an example?
