oops yeah, I should proofread,duh. Never could type.

Nevertheless, you see how little we were told about anything remotely current.

FactorFiction, one more thing. Actually, JFK was assassinated in 1963.

Factor Fiction, unfortunately, when it comes to the Rosa Parks incident and

all of the other aspects of the so-called Modern Civil Rights Movement, hardly any of the history books tell "The True Story" and "The Entire Story".

Yep

I need some ed-u-cay-shin... Back in the mid eighties the required history classes in my small city only taught up to World War II with any sort of depth.Oh then we skipped ahead to the fact that Kennedy was shot in 1964. And, that about wrapped up US History II.

Hi, Reni, my good friend. Missed you. However, with all due respect, the

Rosa Parks incident did a whole lot more harm to race relations in America than good. In future posts, I will cover some of the specifics.

FactorFiction, good to hear from you. And so far as Rosa Parks, there was

more to her than met the eye. She was NOT just an innocent little seamstress who got pissed off one day. That bus episode was orchestrated by some people who had an agenda ... an agenda that was not in the best interests of America.

Interesting perspective...But I still think she helped, imhwo (in my

humble white opinion!)...

David1, I'm happy to hear from you. Real happy about it. I consider you to

be one of my good pals around here.

Ariala, RE: Naughty Sites. I just can't picture you ogling that stuff.

Great post.

I do wonder how many times Rosa thought, "Why didn't I just move? This is so not worth the notoriety/publicity/etc." But then I would have been quite embarrassed rather than proud of my "historic" stance...how 'bout having your PMS be the start of a Civil Rights Movement...hehe... I don't recall that I have read her thoughts about the whole thing in her later years...

MHW, are you asking me if I've tried to get in on porn sites? LOL

Ariala, what a bummer. And I bet your employer has blocked access to all

the porn sites, too.

MHW, well, I'm at work and can't read posts, so I can just imagine what

you said here! LOL (I'm able to comment but posts are blocked...strange system!)

Enjoy stirring the pot!

Ariala, hiya doin', friend? Don't know how long I'll be here, but for some

reason or the other, I was overcome by an powerful urge to "stir the pot".

MHW, welcome back!

mightyholywarrior, You are right. I spoke in haste. I have not walked in the shoes.

strat, good hearing from you. And apparently, when it comes to the Civil

Rights Movement, you know what time it is.

posted by Feenix on November 3, 2005 at 8:20 AM | link to this | reply

Tapsel-T, "RESTROSPECT"?! My mother voiced her opposition to the

Montgomery bus boycott in 1955 and 1956 while it was happening. And in addition to her, many other blacks back then regarded the endeavor as being nothing but a demonstration of blacks pleading with whites to cut them a little slack.

But all of the blacks who felt the way my mother and others did got shouted down by the civil-rights crowd and all of the Northeastern socialists and communists who were backing Parks, M.L. King, Jr. and the Civil Rights Movement ... and I could go on.

But anyway, it is real good to hear from you, my friend.

Exactly! And welcome back!

Kiddo, "where this goes" is the Civil Rights Movement was a folly; one of

the biggest ones in history. The endeavor was nothing but a waste of time, money and lives.

And thank you for welcoming me back. Thank you very much.

mightyholywarrior, It is always easier in retrospect to say what should have been done. The question is, "What are you going to do now?" Welcome back.

SYMPHONY, thank you for welcoming me back. Gives things about a week. By

that time I will have returned to my spot as "One of the Most Hated Men on Blogit".
