@BillRM,
Scary stuff They admit that blacks lie on purpose, it's their culture or something
Quote:n black vernacular, Signifying is a sign that words cannot be trusted, that even the most literal utterance allows room for interpretation, that language is both carnival and minefield.
It is not difficult to understand why Africans forcibly transported across an ocean would be suspicious of a language that gave them the status of chattel slaves and defined them as less than human. Mastery of that language entailed internalization of the master's values, paying lip service, at the very least, to the notion of white superiority. Slaves learned to resist this literal process of self-destruction by saying little, saying no, saying to themselves and each other a different version of the new tongue

I think you've mistaken them for Republicans/conservatives.
@JTT,
Lying and spinning truth is a human thing not a black/white or even a conservatives thing.
I love for example the lying for Jesus group that you run into here.
@BillRM,
Was a bit of tongue in cheek, humor, ..., Bill.

Geeze, whodave thunk that was possible?
The white world has always tried to rob and discredit us of our history . . . Every student of history, of impartial mind, knows that the Negro once ruled the world, when white men were savages and barbarians living in caves; that thousands of Negro professors at that time taught in the universities of Alexandria, then the seat of learning; that ancient Egypt gave the world civilization and that Greece and Rome have robbed Egypt of her arts and letters, and taken all the credit upon themselves.

@marsz,
Ok who would wish to lay bets on if this person is for real or not?
From just the post I would tend to think this is a troll by a middle age white guy.
@marsz,
Ok from looking at his posting history he is a trolling evil white guy.
The kind of person who drive others to the tanning booth so we had less in common with him.
Marcus Mosiah Garvey, Jr., National Hero of Jamaica (17 August 1887 " 10 June 1940[1]), was a publisher, journalist, entrepreneur, Black Nationalist, Pan-Africanist, and orator. Marcus Garvey was founder of the Universal Negro Improvement Association and African Communities League (UNIA-ACL).[2]
Prior to the twentieth century, leaders such as Prince Hall, Martin Delany, Edward Wilmot Blyden, and Henry Highland Garnet advocated the involvement of the African diaspora in African affairs. Garvey was unique in advancing a Pan-African philosophy to inspire a global mass movement focusing on Africa known as Garveyism.[2] Promoted by the UNIA as a movement of African Redemption, Garveyism would eventually inspire others, ranging from the Nation of Islam, to the Rastafari movement (which proclaims Garvey as a prophet). The intention of the movement was for those of African ancestry to "redeem" Africa and for the European colonial powers to leave it.
