These "intelligent" Black people wanted to lynch U.S. Education Secretary Betsy DeVoes today when she was addressing their college graduation ceremony.

Future leaders of America...(sigh). Disgusting, isn't it?
www.ed.gov... niversity-leaders
A key priority for this administration is to help develop opportunities for communities that are often the most underserved. Rather than focus solely on funding, we must be willing to make the tangible, structural reforms that will allow students to reach their full potential. Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) have done this since their founding.
They started from the fact that there were too many students in America who did not have equal access to education. They saw that the system wasn't working, that there was an absence of opportunity, so they took it upon themselves to provide the solution. HBCUs are real pioneers when it comes to school choice.
They are living proof that when more options are provided to students, they are afforded greater access and greater quality. Their success has shown that more options help students flourish.

Funny, I was just pulling up the actual statement.

Dayuum he had one too many plates of curry, but seriously tho, for decades the race war thing, was a feature of the far right, and most recently ended with Daylan Roof, but do I want to go around killing white ppl, just because some are racist??..naaw, first who am I gonna kill?? many life long friends?? family members, some racist fart I could easily avoid,??
In a situation where I am forced to defend me or mines well yes..but they needn't be racist to do that, just being an imminent threat from any azzhole.
Lookit racism is an idea, one cannot kill an idea with bullets, with education and better ideas yeah we have a better chance of killing it.edit on 11-5-2017 by Spider879 because: (no reason given)

What's the difference between indiscriminately killing white people and the same thought process for muslims in countries who haven't attacked America?
I don't support either but I hope you understand my question.
Unfortunately extreme ideology is saturating America, and diluting any hope of critical thinking by the masses.
When is the last time the US attacked innocent civilians for being Muslim?
Or do you mean, when a known target was using innocent civilians as shields, in a war zone?
I get confused sometimes....
If a handful of extreme Americans attacked China, would you expect our government and infrastructure to be destroyed in response?
Further more, when we have no connection to American lives being lost to Yemen, Libya, and Syria, should we topple their government?
Projecting freedom is not dictating the forms of government for sovereign nations.

As a minority I find this stupid. While I identify as a Liberal I am very disgusted on how my fellow Liberals treated White people as the enemy.
In fact some of us want an open dialogue and make peace with White Americans.
Also I do not like how these liberals target conservatives and while we may disagree with conservatives we believe that its their right to believe on what they want as long as they don't espouse violent rhetoric and other harmful actions.

Please do articulate for us how the jist of this statement is out of "context":
“When we have this conversation about violence, or killing white people, it has to be looked at in the context of historical turn,” said Curry . “And the fact that we’ve had no one address, like how relevant and how solidified this kind of tradition is, for black people saying look, in order to be equal, in order to be liberated, some white people may have to die.”
Why is that confusing to you? Does it confuse you that a black man is making a request to address the reasons other black people feel they need to fight to be free?
I've heard plenty of white conservatives ask the same question. Why is it confusing when a black professor asks it?

These paranoid fools who think that whitey is the devil and is out to get them need to wake up and realize that the black culture and black communities are their own worst enemy and do more harm to blacks than any whitey ever did.

I'll bite. It's talking about the need for discussion why some black people feel that way - in no way is that advocating killing anyone and if you have any level of intelligence you would actually see that.
