Repubiklans
When Some Repubiklans Say they are Christian Conservatives ring the alarm! Repubiklans seem to want blacks to think they're welcome into the party. Yes we know that they are the party of Lincoln. Conservative Christians are also the ones who used the bible to justify slavery. Repubiklans can't deny the truth: We were freed because of a gnawing of some impending disaster, because of a soil becoming rapidly impoverished, because of the hunger for fresh land, because of the new logic of life that came in the wake of the clanking machines-it was all these things, and not the strength of moral ideals alone, that lessened the grip of the Lords of the Land upon us. We black men and women in America today, as we look back upon scenes of rapine, sacrifice and death seem to be children of a devilish aberration, descendants of an interval of nightmare in history, fledglings of a period of amnesia on the part of men who once dreamed a great dream and forgot. Just as feminism has challenged patriarchy and shown how patriarchy and androcentrism warp the world for everyone, men as well as women, so black scholars must challenge the Eurocentric mind set not only for the sake of the black community but also for the sake of all scholarship. I'm in the grassroots and throwing miracle grow on it with knowledge and we fed up with people saying it causes division to discuss racial issues when we feel its effects daily!
