The left and their race baiting cohorts have finally achieved their goal to turn nearly half of black Americans not to be ok with white people. This is not a surprising result based on the nonstop drum beat claims of racism everywhere, police targeting and killing of innocent backs and rising white nationalism. What they have succeeded in doing is to unravel all the good that was achieved in the leadup prior to President Obama’s inauguration. Black Americans, as are all children, are now taught in schools that America a racist country not founded in 1776 but in 1619 on the backs of black people when the first African slaves were introduced to the American colonies. This continual harping on the evilness of the white race and the perpetual victimization of blacks has accomplished its goal – the races are now at each other’s throats. Mission accomplished for the left and their cohorts. The irony in all of this is that there is no better country in the world for blacks to have equal opportunity to succeed in attaining a prosperous and happy life…not in South America and the Caribbean, not in the Middle East, not in Asia, not in Europe and certainly not in the former Soviet Republics nor even Africa itself. I fear that this nonstop accusation of white racism will lead to Balkanization of America. It is not a pleasant thought to imagine America as Yugoslavia.
Yes, a very upsetting situation, entirely designed and implemented by those in the Democratic party who have been touting “Transformation”, especially in their systematic sabotage of the public school system and their intentional torpedoing of alternate, e.g., Charter school, systems—for obvious reasons: why, if your intention is to destroy public education and those it is meant to educate, would you provide, let alone encourage, an alternative?
Well, now that we have established that NewNeo enjoys The BeeGees, let me mention that there are at least FOUR excellent analyses of their voices (plus a look at younger brother Andy’s voice) on Fil Henley’s excellent “Wings of Pegasus” YouTube site. Also, if you have a question, it is his custom to answer every email personally. Enjoy!
Gerard surprised me in a few ways as I got to “know” him through his blog. One surprise was his love of the Bee Gees (my all time favorite). For a brief time, I thought Gerard was sort of a Lester Bangs figure and I didn’t consider he’d be a Bee Gees fan. I remember his comment, “Barry Gibb in this performance could convert me,” regarding the video of Gibb’s performance of “You Win Again”. I’d had the same reaction upon seeing that video and wondered if something was wrong with me…
The Asbury Revival lives! And has reached Baylor.
_______________________
Baylor University students are praying for mass spiritual renewal after receiving inspiration from the student-led revival at Asbury University in Kentucky.
Students at Asbury have led a 24-7 worship event in the school’s chapel since February 8 that has attracted worshipers from across the country and the world and has sparked a generation-wide call for religious renewal in America across multiple college and university campuses.
In Waco Texas, Harris Creek Baptist Church (HCBC) held a small religious service on campus from 9 PM to 3 AM, and students have continued to organize informal worship events nightly, according to the student newspaper, The Baylor Lariat.
Photos from February 20 of the event on held in the main square on Baylor’s campus have circulated on social media under the hashtag “#RevivalGeneration.”
…
Baylor President Linda A. Livingstone told Campus Reform in an exclusive comment that she is “overjoyed to see students boldly stepping out to encourage this generation of men and women to know the transformative power of the gospel.”
In a recent public transportation excursion the driver verbally abused me. I am “white” he was “black.” Completely unprovoked on my part; I was silently exiting the bus. To make his abuse even more demeaning he referred to me in the third person, rather than the second person; like I was an “other” unworthy of a “you” pronoun or direct discourse.
I notice this a bit more recently, especially in anonymous situations; a look of disdain from the car next to me at a stoplight, a look of disdain in a supermarket…
It is unfortunate that many are fomenting hatred of “whites” and this is permeating polite society.
There have been a few religious revivals in America. I recall an interesting bio of George Whitefield or Whitfield on the old History Channel back when it was good.
In 1740, Whitefield traveled to North America where he preached a series of revivals that became part of the “Great Awakening”. His methods were controversial, and he engaged in numerous debates and disputes with other clergymen.
A couple of ugly items in his bio, at least by modern standards.
Joe:
I can assure you that in “real life” Gerard was a big Bee Gees fan.

What did he say to you?
Xylourgos and RTF: FWIW, DEI workers are being let go at a higher rate than other workers (33% to 21%) as companies are laying off employees in the current economic slump: “Diversity staffers seem like a good idea in a Trump-style economy when business is booming. That’s when a company can afford it. In a Biden-style economy, when you’re worried about the future? Not so much. The other problem with diversity staffers is that they don’t build, market, or sell anything. What they do create is problems that then must be solved by the company. Not enough people of color at the company? Not enough LGBTQ people at the company? These are the issues that these workers are paid to notice and report. You don’t need these problems if you’re a boss worried about meeting profit projections, payroll or rent.”
For any who have an interest in the Vietnam War, here’s an interesting nook review by VDH.
“Military historian and Hillsdale College professor Mark Moyar has just published Triumph Regained: The Vietnam War, 1965-1968, which is the second in what will become a massive three-volume revision of the entire Vietnam War. It is a book that should be widely read, much discussed, and reviewed in depth regardless of one’s view of that sad chapter in American diplomacy and conflict in Vietnam.
The first book, Triumph Forsaken: The Vietnam War, 1954-1965 appeared in 2006. It gained considerable attention for its heterodox analysis of the postwar origins of communist aggression against the South, beginning with the disastrous French colonial experience and its transference to the Americans. Moyar described the Byzantine intrigue through which the Kennedy Administration inserted American ground troops into Vietnam, and why and how his successor Lyndon B. Johnson rapidly escalated the American presence.”
Some interesting assertions about the Communists fears that they were losing. A fact unknown to U.S. intelligence and certainly never talked about in our media. Poor intelligence, bad news reporting, domestic political maneuvering, and subsequent bad decisions seem to have led us down a primrose path to abandoning the South Vietnamese when victory was actually within our grasp.
Funny to read Xylourgos’ top comment. I was just reflecting on this a few days ago. I was remembering how race relations seemed to be steadily improving from the early 80s up to Obama’s election. Then, by design, he sent it all to hell. Even my BiL, who is black and married to a white woman (my wife’s sister) is infected. He says he won’t come visit us in Florida as it’s the South and he could be lynched.
physicsguy, that comment from your BiL is especially sad considering that, outside the poor black areas of large cities, the South is rather better integrated and more tolerant than, for instance, the suburban areas around big cities in the Upper Midwest.
miguel, that Ricochet link to James Lileks is a hoot, and he’s quite right.

It seems possible and I think it would be a great thing. Much of the power of the Civil Rights movement came from its Christian moral credibility.
I’ve forgotten who said the Civil Rights movement was “Baptist to its bones,” but they had a point.
This too is a time for Christians to step up for moral witness, though from a different direction.
On the subject of “spheres of influence” and whether Russia should have any say into what Ukraine does…well, take it away Ted Cruz!
WASHINGTON, D.C. – U.S. Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas), Ranking Member of the Senate Committee on Commerce, Science, and Transportation and member of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, issued the following statement today after two Iranian warships were allowed by Brazil to dock at a port in Rio de Janeiro:
“The docking of Iranian warships in Brazil is a dangerous development and a direct threat to the safety and security of Americans. The United States has sanctions and antiterrorism laws designed exactly to deter and respond to these threats. These Iranian warships are already sanctioned, and so the port in Rio de Janeiro where they docked is now at risk of crippling sanctions, as are any Brazilian companies that provided them services or accepted payments – and so are all foreign companies that entangle themselves with the port or those Brazilian companies in the future. President Biden calls Brazilian President da Silva his friend and said he was honored to host him at the White House, and da Silva himself is a Chavista aligned against the United States and our interests, so either these risks were not conveyed or the Brazilians did not care. Nevertheless, our anti-terrorism laws are designed to protect Americans and are not optional. The Biden administration is obligated to impose relevant sanctions, reevaluate Brazil’s cooperation with U.S. antiterrorism efforts, and reexamine whether Brazil is maintaining effective antiterrorism measures at its ports. If the administration does not, Congress should force them to do so.”

On the subject of “spheres of influence” and whether Russia should have any say into what Ukraine does…well, take it away Ted Cruz!
A few things.
Firstly: Iran is a terrorist regime in a declared state of war with the US and has been for decades. Even the most extravagant and generous interpretation for the Kremlin of Ukraine’s behavior does not let the same readout. Especially since the Ukrainians did not strike at Russian soil until after the Kremlin dropped the pretenses that it was not invading Ukraine.
Secondly: Nobody made the Russian Government sign Helsinki’s Final Act or the Astana Declaration publicly stating there was no room for one OSCE nation to dictate another’s policies or assume hegemony over it.
Thirdly: In spite of the second I do not have a fundamental issue with the idea of Russia exerting influence over Ukraine, but a hell of a lot matters about the How. Invading a country under false pretexts with the states goal of dismembering it and curtailing its independence is a ghoulish way to exert influence even when given the greatest possible justifications like with WWII. This isn’t that.
Fourthly; the nature of your argument belies how feeble it is. What pray tell do you think the US will do in response to this? What would the US do, even if it were not under a Tehran Simp regime?
Yeah, probably not “invade Brazil to try and overthrow its government and see if Minas Gerais wants to try this independence thing again.”
Which further makes a mockery of your attempts to equate what the Kremlin has done with the US and the Monroe Doctrine. Especially since even during the US’s imperialist, interventionist worst it did NOT like the idea of perpetual sectarian war being allowed to linger for foreign policy purposes. Which is what the Kremlin has openly embraced in Ukraine and especially Georgia.
If you had shame or even basic self awareness, Mike, you would not be making such a gratuitously stupid and disingenuous comparison – MUCH more different and less fitting than the analogies I made to the 1930s which you condemned without ever explaining way according to a shifting scale of strawman justifications.
Especially since Sanctions and reconsiderations of involvement are not invasion and partition. As your own source and Cruz point out.

Amen!

He has this to say about current racial politics:

White people if you are still trying to do things to help black people you all have done lost your minds.
We as certain black intellects from crazy backgrounds… we do not associate ourselves with n-words… We are … blacks who are trying to do something to help themselves. We do this.
So white people … if you want to help black people, only help the ones who are trying to help themselves.

OTOH, it does appear that South Africa (rather than the former Yugoslavia) is the model…since the countries of the former Yugoslavia have for the most part been able to rebound successfully, which is something that “Biden” will try “his” utmost to prevent WRT America.
