Socialism - Liberalism Quotation
"The American people will never knowingly adopt socialism, but under the name of liberalism they will adopt every fragment of the socialist program until one day America will be a socialist nation without ever knowing how it happened." – Norman Thomas

Al Sharpton's White-hate Reclaim the Dream rally, only yards away from Glenn Beck's Restoring Honor gathering, was intended to protect the words of Dr. Martin Luther King, who if alive today may have been standing on the stage with Beck, or at least as his niece, Dr. Alveda King said: "would like," what was said on August 28th on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial. In the video below, hear Ben Jealous, the president of the NAACP, say if MLK's speech been read at Restoring Honor, the crowd would not have applauded.
Glenn Beck Restoring Honor
Sharpton's embarrassment hasn't been this high-profile since he evoked Tawana Brawley's fake rape. He couldn't rally a significant crowd even with help from The U.S. Department of Education, which sent out 4000 emails, on federal computers, using federal employees, urging them to attend Al Sharpton's hate rally. Sharpton is claiming a crowd of 30,000, but some who stopped by both rallies are saying, huh-uh. Joe Schoffstall at Eyeblast says 30,000 attendees are impossible - and points out the bleachers are at a high-school athletic field and cannot hold anywhere near 30,000:
Sharpton’s website claims that 30,000 people made the 5-mile march to the MLK memorial, but I find that a little hard to believe. Those are high school football bleachers. There is nowhere near 30,000 people there.
So far, I have found no aerial shots of the Sharpton White-hate rally, but it is clear Sharpton the Reverend Sharpton knows nothing of Grace. You cannot see it and you cannot hear it in this rally or in any interviews Sharpton has done since. Dittos Ben Jealous, the chairman of the NAACP, who says had the MLK I have a Dream speech been read at Beck's event, the crowd would not have applauded.

Paris Lewis, a convert to Islam, is known today as Malik Zulu Shabazz. In the video interview below with a Russian-English language news channel, Shabazz says his New Black Panther Party (NBPP) is "ready to rumble," and will meet Glenn Beck at the "Washington monument." According to Shabazz, the NBPP is ready for "rightwingers," and he names some, but leaves Sarah Palin out of his list of "rumblees." Apparently, they want no part of Mama Grizzly, Sarah Palin who will be appearing at Beck's Restoring Honor.

Shabazz also said the New Black Panther "will deal with all rightwingers," including Michael Steele, J. Christian Adams, the DOJ whistleblower, Rep. Frank Wolf (R-VA-10th) who tried to subpoena the DOJ for information about the NBPP voter intimidation case, and TEA parties.
Without blogs and Fox News, you would know nothing about the voter intimidation case against the New Black Panthers, because mainstream media refuses to talk about this anti-American, Jew-hating, screed-spewing organization which tried to keep voters from exercising their right to vote for their choice in the 2008 presidential elections. UPDATE: 7-9-10 1:00 pm EDT - Oops, in the video below you'll hear Lewis/Shabazz say Fox will not allow him on. Just heard that Megyn Kelly is interviewing him at about 2:30 p.m. EDT. Here is a statement dated July 8, 2010 from GlennBeck.com, after saying no one applying for these permits receives them hand until about three days before the event:
[Beck] ...we have not only the permit, the space of the Lincoln Memorial, we have the space — we have taken the mall and asked for the space from the Lincoln Memorial all the way to the capitol building. We have the entire mall reserved for that day. Not because we're expecting that whole place to be filled but because we wanted to make sure counterprotests and everything else, we want this to be a peaceful event.
There is only one sliver of the mall that we don't have. It was reserved by the White House and it is like a quarter of the space behind the Washington Memorial. So we wanted to make it a safe space, we wanted to make it a peaceful space, we wanted to do justice to the space. It is a sacred space to me as well, and anybody who thinks that we're going to desecrate the image of Lincoln, Washington, or even MLK, I invite you to come and bring your family because you will be amazed. You will be amazed at how uplifting this will be.
So where is the press? We're talking about a sacred and Constitutional right to go to the polls uninhibited. Where is the press?
The Beck rally on August 28th will meet on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial to move the "restoration" theme forward:
"a non-political event that pays tribute to America's service personnel and other upstanding citizens who embody our nation's founding principles of integrity truth and honor."
August 28th is the 47th anniversary of Martin Luther King, Jr's I Have a Dream speech at the Lincoln monument. Lewis/Shabazz says his group will meet Beck on "the 27th." They'll have to camp out because the rally begins on the 28th - or maybe they plan to catch Beck without the masses, overseeing the setup the day before???

I Have a Dream speech August 28, 1963
If you plan to attend the Beck's rally, find time and information about how to get into the Lincoln Memorial on rally day here. One thing to mention, on Left websites there are people saying the National Park Service says Beck does not yet have a permit approved for the National Mall area on the 28th, and others say the permit is for the area in front of the reflecting pool, not on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial. The question: does Beck have the permit? Surely he would not hype this event with an event license.
Shabazz says the NBPP is also "ready to rumble" with Michael Steele chairman of the RNC, TEA parties, Rep. Frank Wolf (R-VA) who is investigating the Department of Justice (DOJ) dismissal against the NBPP's voter intimidation in Philadelphia, and J. Christian Adams, the whistleblower that resigned the DOJ after being told that there will be no justice for White victims of voter fraud and/or intimidation - bottom line, Justice will not prosecute Blacks participating in voter fraud or intimidation.
To understand what the New Black Panthers are all about, you must also see the National Geographic video of the NBPP's Philadelphia chapter head, King Samir Shabazz, telling Blacks they need to kill Whites, including our "cracker babies (second video below). American, this is who and what we are dealing with.

On one of my Jeremiah Wright posts, a reader has asked if I am aware that "Rev. Wright created the largest congregation in a predominately white denomination 94%+, the United Church of Christ? Trinity UCC's association with the denomination is totally voluntary, as is the 100s of thousands of dollars the congregation donates to support the denomination?"
Jeremiah Wright
If I understand the question correctly, he is saying that former Trinity United Church of Christ, when pastored by Jeremiah Wright, is a part of a mostly white denomination, the United Church of Christ. I fail to see any Christian denomination by the color of its majority body. An exception might be the African Methodist Episcopal. Perhaps my reader is trying to tell me that Wright is mainstream as the pastor of a huge body of churches. And perhaps my reader is right, as United Church of Christ is a part of the far-left and dangerous National Council of Churches.
To me it seems Wright is getting closer and closer to a call for violence, although the reader says he has listened to many of Wright's speeches and sermons and said Wright has never advocated violence. Wright is quoted in the New York Post saying Martin Luther King was wrong to advocate for non-violence. Reader is doubtful of that quote. When I listen to Wright, time after time, and knowing that he embraces and defends Black Liberation Theology (BLT), consider this quote by James H. Cone, the founder of BLT.
James H. Cone: If God is not for us and against white people, then he is a murderer, and we had better kill him. The task of black theology is to kill gods who do not belong to the black community. Black theology will accept only the love of God which participates in the destruction of the white enemy.
What we need is the diving love as expressed in black Power, which is the power of Black people to destroy their oppressors here and now by an means at their disposal. Unless God is participating in this holy activity, we must reject his love.
Cone is an ordained minister of the African Methodist Episcopal Church. Black Liberation Theology is said to combine some Christianity with Black Power. I believe the movement is growing closer to The New Black Panthers with heavy Islamic influences. I ask if it is possible we are heading for another Black Power movement? Pick any YouTube New Black Panther video and tell me how much of a Christian influence lingers. Also consider Wright's Hamas sympathies - a terrorist organization.
If Wright is not advocating for violence, he surely has to know that many, many young black men are listening to him, are converting to Islam, and if he has any authority at all among blacks, he is fueling the hate that so often turns to violence.
For those wanting to criticize me for pointing out Wright's racism, his breathtaking lack of patriotism damning America, deriding being born in "the oven of America," praising socialism, and little or no respect for whites, okay, but as I said to my reader, Wright's own words represent who he is. After all, to quote Barack Obama, "words matter."
Jeremiah Wright is speaking (or reading) to the New York Society for Ethical Culture in 2009 - and is speaking of their publications. He praises them for filling an invaluable purpose, specifically the socialist perspective. He says they fill an incredible void in critical thinking, and loves their idea of "no nonsense marxism." He speaks of Martin Luther King, and recently said King was wrong to advocate for non-violence. Wright appears to hate everything about this country, and the only thing a White can do to please him, is leave the U.S. So has he called for black on white violence - a battle cry maybe, by invoking MLK? Are we moving into the return of the Black Power era and has Wright embraced it?
Barack Obama and Jeremiah Wright
In this video, Wright speaks of Martin Luther King and the victims of King's "famous menage a trois: militarism, capitalism, and racism." Wright is an advocate of Black Liberation Theology, which is a part of Black Power movements, and many believers seem to have embraced Islam, including members of the New Black Panthers. Does Jeremiah Wright and the huge congregation he pastored, stand with the New Black Panthers?
Listen as he says "after all we are a Christian country," and listen to the chatter in the audience. Visit the New York Society for Ethical Culture here. See links to background on Jeremiah Wright below the video.
A reader, Sara, brought up a salient point that I first misunderstood Wright's comments about the "menange a trois." After more research, I accept that. It seems I succumbed to the belief that MLK was really more conservative in his thinking, that he explored what capitalism meant, but did not damn it, and I believed that while he suffered for the treatment of Blacks, he did not hate Whites or the U.S. As I dig deeper, I'm ready to concede that none of that may be true. We can't know whom MLK would have stood with today. Maybe he would have embraced Black Liberation Theology and Jeremiah Wright. I'll note once more though - Wright recently said MLK was wrong to advocate non-violence.
Jeremiah Wright Praises Socialism, Marxism and Zings MLK (video)
Jeremiah Wright taught a five day course at the Chicago Theological Seminary last week, on the grounds of Chicago University. He had a lot to say to his small class of no more than 20 "older" African-American women who could afford to pay the $300 if not needed for college credit, or $1000+ for credit. Wright claims that Martin Luther King was wrong to advocate for non-violence for blacks "born in the oven of America." Who would pay the man to praise this country? Anyone?
Barack Obama with Jeremiah Wright
Forty-two years after the death of Martin Luther King, I think Wright is calling for violence against Whites.
From the New York Post here are some of the more disgusting quotes, although his "God d**n America" can't be topped for the worst of his outrages, and s you read them, remember that Barack Obama and Michelle sat in this church for 20 years:
We probably have more African-Americans who've been brainwashed than we have South Africans who've been brainwashed, he said, and seemed to allude to President Obama twice: "Unfortunately, I got in trouble with a fella for saying this...All your commentaries are written by oppressors." At the mention of nation of Islam head Louis Farrakhan - whom Obama disavowed during the campaign - black leaders "go cutting' and duckin,' he said.
"You are not now, nor have you ever been, nor will you ever be a brother to white folk," he said. "And if you do not realize that, you are in serious trouble."
The civil-rights movement," Wright said, "was never about racial equality. It was always about becoming white . . . to master what [they] do." Martin Luther King, he said, was misguided for advocating nonviolence among his people, "born in the oven of America."
"White folk done took this country"
Jeremiah Wright Home built in the oven of America
You probably remember that Trinity United Church of Christ (TUCC) built a million dollar home in a gated in the Odyssey Club neighborhood on a golf course. The New York Post has an interesting bit of info: before the $1M home, the Wrights lived in a two-story house in an affluent subdivision "surrounded by roadblocks: the line between rich and poor is literal. His former neighbors all say he kept to himself."
NewsBusters' Noel Sheppard has more and says no one besides the New York Post reported this incendiary event. Once more, who would pay this man to talk nice?
