Blacks Petition UN To Censure Obama and Democratic Party for Racism

BLACKS PETITION UN TO CENSURE OBAMA AND DEMOCRATIC PARTY FOR RACISM

By Frances Rice

The NAACP, acting on behalf of President Barack Obama and the Democratic Party, launched an attack on Republicans with a false charge of racism because some states are trying to end voter fraud by requiring all voters to present identification when appearing at the polls to vote.  The NAACP did their grandstanding in front of the United Nations on December 10th, the day the UN declared to be “International Human Rights Day”.  The NAACP also announced that in January 2012, they will present a petition to the UN, claiming that Republicans want to “take away the right to vote” from “the elderly and working families of all colors.”   

Notably, the NAACP has voiced no objection over identification required to do business in a bank, board an airplane, get medicine from a pharmacy, use a credit card in retail stores, drive a car and a host of other things.  Even more telling, the NAACP is not targeting labor unions, major donors of the Democratic Party, even though unions require their own members to produce a photo ID in order to vote in union elections.  To see an article with more details about unions, click here.  

With aplomb the NAACP ignores who actually denied blacks the right to vote—the Democratic Party, the party that instituted those Jim Crow laws and poll taxes.  No concern is shown by the NAACP about voter fraud by Democratic Party operatives, such as ACORN that was prosecuted in several states.  There was nothing but silence from the NAACP when, on December 12th, two days after the NAACP’s stunt at the UN, the head of the Indiana Democratic Party, Dan Parker, resigned as St. Joseph County Prosecutor  Mike Dvorak  launched an investigation into allegations of election fraud that stemmed from the 2008 Democratic presidential primary.  According to reports, numerous signatures on petitions that placed then-candidates Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton on the party’s primary ballot were allegedly forged and then certified by the St. Joseph County Voter Registration Office in South Bend.  Details about this investigation can be found by clicking here.  

In reaction to the efforts by the NAACP to smear Republicans as racist, the National Black Republican Association sent a petition to the United Nations, seeking a censure resolution against President Barack Obama and the Democratic Party for that party’s gross violations of human rights in contravention of the Charter of the United Nations and the United Nations’ International Convention on Civil and Political Rights.  That petition is shown below.  

It is time for the Democratic Party to be held accountable for their reprehensible election year strategy designed to keep blacks poor, angry and voting for Democrats.

Secretary General Ban Ki-moon
The United Nations
1st Ave & E 44th Street
New York, NY 10017

Dear Secretary K-moon:

We, African American citizens of the United States,

Considering the obligation of States under the Charter of the United Nations to promote universal respect for, and observance of, human rights and freedoms,

Recognizing the principles proclaimed in the Charter of the United Nations and the United Nations’ International Convention on Civil and Political Rights that States must create conditions whereby everyone may enjoy his civil and political rights, as well as his economic, social and cultural rights,

Herewith petition the United Nations to take the necessary measures to issue a censure resolution against the United States’ Democratic Party and the head of that party, President Barack Obama, for the gross violations of human rights committed against African American citizens of the United States by the Democratic Party (with charges one and two happening today and charges three through 25 happening in prior years), to wit:

Democrats:

1.    Use what President Barack Obama described in his book “Dreams From My Father” as “plantation politics” to keep African Americans improvised and living in dilapidated communities with over 17% unemployment
2.    Keep poor African American children trapped in failing urban public schools
3.    Beat African Americans to death, cut them into pieces and burned them alive
4.    Burned down African Americans communities
5.    Bombed African Americans churches
6.    Lynched over two thousand African Americans
7.    Proudly endorsed the institution of slavery to enslave millions of African Americans
8.    Called Republicans “Nigger Lovers” for fighting for civil rights for African Americans
9.    Called the original Republican Party “Black Republicans”
10.    Killed African Americans outside the voting booth for voting for Republicans
11.    Killed white teachers who taught African Americans students
12.    Burned down African Americans schools
13.    Proudly called themselves “the Party of White Supremacy"
14.    Stacked the United States Supreme Court with pro-slavery and racist  judges
15.    Sponsored racist legislation from Jim Crow Laws to Black Codes and Fugitive Slave Laws
16.    Supported Judge John Ferguson in the case of “Plessy v Ferguson” & opposed the case of “Brown v. Board of Education”
17.    Praised the Dred Scott Decision that classified African Americans as “property”
18.    Fought against the integration of public schools
19.    Forced African Americans to sit in the back of buses and restaurants and in the balcony of movie theatres
20.    Killed little African Americans girls in their Sunday school classes
21.    Hanged African Americans by the neck until dead without a trial
22.    Formed terrorist organizations, such as the Ku Klux Klan to lynch and terrorize African Americans
23.    Denied employment to African Americans
24.    Refused service to African Americans in restaurants and other public facilities, such as parks and swimming pools
25.    Made reprehensible racist statements, including the following by President Lyndon Johnson:  “These Negroes, they’re getting pretty uppity these days and that’s a problem for us since they got something now that they never had before, the political pull to back up their uppityness. Now we got to do something about this, we’ve got to give them a little something, just enough to quiet them down and not enough to make a difference. For if we don’t move at all, then their allies will line up against us and there’ll be no way to stopping them, we will lose the filibuster and there’ll be no way of putting a brake on all sorts of wild legislation. It’ll be Reconstruction all over again….”

Wealth Gaps Rise to Record Highs Between Whites, Blacks, Hispanics

Saturday, September 24th, 2011

The median wealth, or net worth, of U.S. households fell from ,894 in 2005 to ,000 in 2009, a drop of 28% when adjusted for inflation.

Pew Research Center: The precipitous decline in wealth was not evenly distributed across racial and ethnic groups. Minority households–Hispanics, blacks and Asians–experienced far steeper declines than white households.

In 2009, the median net worth of white households (3,149) was the highest of all groups.

In sharp contrast, Hispanic and black households had a median net worth of ,325 and ,677 respectively. Asian households, with a median net worth of ,066, had much more wealth in 2009 than Hispanics and blacks but much less than whites.

All groups experienced drops in wealth from 2005 to 2009 but there were sharp differences among them.

Hispanics’ median net worth fell 66%, from ,359 in 2005 to ,325 in 2009. Black households experienced a loss of 53%, from ,124 in 2005 to ,677 in 2009. The drop in the wealth of white households was modest in comparison, falling 16% from 4,992 in 2005 to 3,149 in 2009.

As a result, the median wealth of white households is now 20 times as high as the wealth of black households and 18 times as much as the wealth of Hispanic households. These ratios are about twice as high as the ratios that existed before the onset of the housing crisis, the stock market crash and the Great Recession (which began in late 2007 and ended in 2009)

Minority households experienced greater losses than whites because they are more dependent on home equity as a source of wealth. As noted above, housing values started to fall sooner than stock prices and, unlike the stock market, the housing market has not yet begun to recover.

Hispanics and Asians were further affected because they are disproportionately likely to reside in states that have been among the hardest hit by the housing crisis: California, Florida, Nevada and Arizona. Hispanics and blacks have also been more susceptible to home foreclosures, and their home ownership rates have dropped more than any other group.

So, Where Is America’s Wealth Going?

Eliminating taxes for billionaires and multi-national corporate oligarchies combined with deregulation and non-enforcement of regulation as tools to stimulate the economy doesn’t work. Not only does it NOT work, but it has the opposite desired economic effect?

Reference the chart from the Institute for Policy Studies, that demonstrates the distribution of wealth in America.

Over the last three decades, inequality has grown by almost all measures. Historically, while those at the top of the income distribution have enjoyed far higher average incomes than everybody else, the gap between the top and the bottom has grown enormously in recent years, driven both by slowdowns in income growth at the bottom and middle, and rapid acceleration of income growth at the top. (Interactive chart at When income grows, who gains?)

Winner Takes All

The super rich have grabbed the bulk of the past three decades’ gains.

Aevrage Household income before taxes.

Out of Balance

A Harvard business prof and a behavioral economist recently asked more than 5,000 Americans how they thought wealth is distributed in the United States. Most thought that it’s more balanced than it actually is. Asked to choose their ideal distribution of wealth, 92% picked one that was even more equitable.

Average Income by Family, distributed by income group.

For a healthy few, it’s getting better all the time.

Blacks Sue Obama & Democrats For Racial Discrimination

BLACKS SUE OBAMA AND DEMOCRATS FOR RACIAL DISCRIMINATION

By Frances Rice

Courageous aptly describes Rev. Wayne Perryman who has just filed a historic and landmark lawsuit in federal district court demanding an apology from the Democratic Party for centuries of racist oppression.  This is Rev. Perryman’s second attempt to seek long overdue justice.  His first lawsuit in 2005 went all the way to the United States Supreme Court.  In that case, the Democrats hired an army of lawyers, admitted their racist past, but refused to apologize.  The Democrats were let off the hook by the Court on the legal technicality of “standing,” since Rev. Perryman had not suffered personally from the Democratic Party’s horrendous racism.  Different this time are two factors.  First, President Barack Obama is a named defendant.  Second, this writer has joined Rev. Perryman as a plaintiff since I did suffer personally at the hands of the racist Democrats during the 1940s, 1950s and 1960s.  Click here to see my bio with details that is posted on the National Black Republican Association website.

Blacks File Class Action Racial Discrimination Suit Against Obama & Democrats


Seattle, WA. On September 11, 2011, blacks from the West Coast and the East Coast joined together and signed one of the most comprehensive legal briefs ever prepared on racial discrimination, then filed their brief today, September 12th, at 9:00 AM Pacific Daylight Time in US District Court in Seattle (Case No. C11 – 1503). The plaintiffs, who refer to the defendants as “Father of Racism,” allege that as an organization, the Democratic Party has consistently refused to apologize for the role they played in slavery and Jim Crow laws and for other subsequent racist practices from 1792 to 2011.

Rev. Wayne Perryman, a former Democrat himself and the lead plaintiff in this class action lawsuit, said he was inspired to file this action after seeing the recent movie The Help. The movie takes place in the region that was exclusively controlled by Democrats for more than 150 years (the South). Mrs. Frances P. Rice, the Chair of the National Black Republican Association is also a plaintiff in the lawsuit. Mrs. Rice is a resident of Sarasota, Florida and has lived in the South most of her life.

The case cites the collective work of over 350 legal scholars and includes Congressional records, case law, research from our nation’s top history professors, racist statements from Democratic elected officials, citations from the Democrat’s National Platforms regarding their support of slavery, excepts of speeches from Senator Obama, individual testimonies from blacks who lived in the Jim Crow South and opinions from the NAACP.

Perryman said President Obama was named as a defendant not only because he is the official leader of the Democratic Party, but because of certain statements he made about his own party in his book, Dreams from My Father.  In 2009, the President was asked to issue an apology to blacks on behalf of his party, but he refused. Unlike other reparations lawsuits, this lawsuit merely asks for a public apology, but no monetary damages.


In the 40-page brief, Rev. Perryman tells the court that the Democratic Party, (the party that is quick to call the Tea Party and Republicans racist), is the same party that refuses to confess and/or acknowledge (in public and on their website) that they are the party that supported the institution that packed millions of black men, women and children in the deep dark hulls of slave ships with just barely enough food and water to keep them alive, and forced them to lie in their own urine, feces, and vomit for the duration of a long trip across the Atlantic.
 

And after arriving in America, it was the members of their party that forced these poor souls to work from sunup to sundown for the next 70 years and never paid them one dime. And when the black victims were fortunate enough to escape, it was the Democratic Party that passed Fugitive Slave laws to return them to their brutal slave masters. When their inhumane institution of slavery was challenged by the opposing party, Democrats countered by placing threats in their political platforms (1844-1856), – threatening anyone who dared to interfere with what they called, “the sectional issue of Domestic Slavery.”

In May 21, 1856, they carried out their threats when they attacked their opposition, Senator Charles Sumner with a walking cane on the Senate floor and when they attacked with guns, freed blacks and abolitionists on the streets of Lawrence, Kansas. Six years later, Democrats called themselves ‘Confederates” and went to war killing thousands to defend and protect their racist institution of slavery.

After losing the war, they fought against constitutional amendments and civil rights legislation for blacks, and chose instead to form terrorist organizations, legislate Black Codes and Jim Crow Laws and support every landmark case that was designed to deny blacks their constitutional rights including the Slaughterhouse Case, Plessy v Ferguson, the Civil Rights Cases of 1881 to overturn the 1875 Civil Rights Act, and Brown v. the Board of Education. While many of these cases were pending, Democrats proudly adopted the name “The Party of White Supremacy” and committed every inhumane violent act known to mankind (from 1867 to 1977) to keep blacks in “their place.” And to add insult to injury, after killing millions of blacks through their racist institutions, they hired powerful attorneys to keep this information from blacks and to avoid apologizing to blacks.

Perryman said, “Any organization that has such a racist history and receives 97% of the African American vote (after doing all they could to deny blacks the right to vote), should willingly apologize without being forced do so through a lawsuit. He said, “I guess they feel they have nothing to apologize for.” Perryman went on to say that he is “convinced that Democrats will only apologize if the media, or the courts (with public pressure) will force them to do so. The man who authored the book: The Audacity of Hope, now has the “audacity” to refuse to apologize for his political party and their racist institutions, that took the lives of millions of his own people.
Apologies for Racism – Precedent Set

In the 40-page brief covering a period from 1792 to 2011, Perryman makes the following claims regarding past apologies for racism and racial injustices. Perryman said history reveals that an apology or reparation for blacks would not be an issue today had the Democratic President Andrew Johnson chosen to sign Senate Bill 60. Since Johnson’s veto of Senate Bill 60, the door for reparations involving racial injustices remained closed for over 120 years.

In 1988, Congress opened that door with the passage of the Civil Liberties Act of 1988. Under that new bill, Japanese internment victims received an apology plus ,000 each in reparation pay. In 1993, the victims of the Rosewood, Florida Massacre received an apology and reparations from the State of Florida. On May 16, 1997, President Clinton issued an apology to the victims of the Tuskegee Experiment and paid the African American victims a total of ,000,000 in reparations.
On February 7, 2005, the 109th Congress issued Senate Resolution 39 and apologized for not enacting lynching laws to protect those who were victims of lynching. In that resolution, Congress stopped short of acknowledging that all of the lynchings took place in regions controlled by Democrats.

And finally on January 20, 2007, the Executive Committee of the Democratic Party of North Carolina apologized for the 1898 riot and massacre that killed several black Republicans and drove them out of office.

Who is Rev. Perryman?

Rev. Perryman is the same Seattle minister who used his biblical research in 1994 to persuade the world’s two largest Christian publishers and the Encyclopedia Britannica to apologize and remove the “Curse of Ham” theory from all of their publications. The curse theory had existed for over 500 years and was used by Southern Christians and Democrats to justify slavery and their mistreatment of blacks.

Obama Devastates Poor And Middle Class Blacks

Saturday, August 13th, 2011

 

OBAMA DEVASTATES POOR AND MIDDLE CLASS BLACKS

By Frances Rice

Showing not a modicum of compassion, President Barack Obama is steadily pushing his socialist agenda that is spiraling black Americans into the depths of economic ruination.  His unyielding mantra of “tax the rich” is just a smoke screen for his desire to punish job creators, mostly small business owners, who produce the majority of the jobs in this country.  Hurt most by Obama’s failed socialist policies are the poor and middle class.  Below is an excerpt from an article by Chidike Okeem that provides the troubling details about how Obama is devastating the black community.  The article in its entirety is posted on the Internet and may be found by clicking on the title below.

Barack Obama and the Betrayal of Black America
By Chidike Okeem

When Barack Obama was elected as the president of the United States, black liberals dreamily believed that the numerous maladies in the black community would cease to exist.  They believed that his election was indicative of a vigorous wind of political and social change that was blowing across the country.  Barack Obama himself vowed that his election would demarcate the conclusion of grisly "politics as usual" from the commencement of political and democratic freshness.  However, as this administration continues on, it is abundantly clear that Obama has not only failed to deliver in a general sense, but he has also completely betrayed his most loyal constituency — the black community.

After passing a gargantuan stimulus plan that was supposed to fix the economy, the unemployment rate continued to rise — until it only recently began falling.  Although we are currently at a 9.1 percent unemployment rate, the rate in the black community is at an unpardonably enormous 16.1 percent — the highest of any ethnic group in the country.  It is also important to note that black unemployment was lower under Bush than it has been at any point during Obama’s administration.  In point of fact, black unemployment was even lower under Bush than it was under Clinton.
More egregious than the high rate of black unemployment is the fact that Obama has been completely disconnected with the black community.  He has failed to articulate any policy that would deal with the crisis that is evident in urban America.  Rather, Obama is much more focused on articulating and enacting policies about issues that are close to his heart, such as allowing gays to serve openly in the military, as well as becoming a potent mouthpiece for the immoral Arab scam to steal Israeli land and annihilate the Jewish people.

Any intellectually honest person in America must look at Obama’s demonstrable disregard for black issues and come to the unavoidable conclusion that black America is the very least of Obama’s concerns.  So obvious is this fact that even some of Barack Obama’s most ardent supporters in the black intelligentsia have begun voicing strident denunciations of the president.  The latest assault on Obama from his left-wing compatriot Cornel West is evidence of this phenomenon.

Although West’s critique of Obama was partly personal and laden with his characteristically asinine divisive racial rhetoric, there was some substance to his criticism to which left-wing Obama cheerleaders in the black community remain willfully blind.  West accused Obama of being "a black mascot of Wall Street oligarchs and a black puppet of corporate plutocrats."

While West foolishly assumes that support for black issues and being in favor of business are mutually exclusive, the unstated and basic premise in West’s critique is that Obama does not care enough about, and expresses no interest in, black people and black issues.  As absurd as the rest of his intellectually messy ramblings are, West is right about that fundamental point.
 

Obama’s sycophants are used to writing off all criticism of the president coming from whites as racist, and they are equally used to describing all criticism from black conservatives as being the puerile rants of Uncle Toms obsequiously looking for approval from "the white man"; however, although Cornel West is one of the black left’s most revered academics, they would much rather write him off as entirely crazy than to admit that any criticism he has of Barack Obama contains even a scintilla of merit.

Big Government is the Problem, Not the Solution

By arguing that Obama has betrayed the black community, I am not arguing that Obama needs to spend his time carving out black-specific governmental policies.  Manifestly, the black-specific liberal policies that have been attempted in the past have done nothing more than stimulate a metastasizing of the very social cancers that they were designed to treat.  My argument is, however, that Obama has failed to enact the economic policies that would provide the necessary environment for blacks to fend for themselves independent of government — despite the fact that he presented himself during his campaign as someone who was inimitably skilled and uniquely well-positioned to do so.

Without attempting to cater to blacks specifically, President Reagan managed to create economic prosperity throughout the entire country which, in point of fact, benefited blacks more than it did whites.  The facts cannot be disputed: Reaganomics had a salubrious effect on the black community, whereas Obamanomics is having an unequivocally deleterious effect on black economics and the black community at large.

Obama Is Not The President of African Americans?

One of the talking points formulated by Obama’s apologists in the media is the notion that Obama is not the president of black America.  They argue he is the president of the United States of America.  This pathetically feeble argument exists for the sole purpose of deflecting legitimate criticism of Obama’s failure to meet the needs of the black community.

The fact of the matter is that Obama is the president of African Americans, just as he is the president of white Americans.  It takes a shocking display of intellectual dishonesty to suddenly release Obama of any responsibility for black America, especially when previous presidents have always been held responsible for their treatment of the black community.

In 1998, the Nobel-Prize-winning writer Toni Morrison gave Bill Clinton the honorary moniker of "America’s first black president" because, according to her, he "display[ed] almost every trope of blackness: single-parent household, born poor, working-class, saxophone-playing, McDonald’s-and-junk-food-loving boy from Arkansas."

Leaving aside the recognizably insulting view of what constitutes blackness in Morrison’s perverse mind, had white, southern Clinton possessed all these qualities while presiding over 16.1 percent unemployment, I am positive that this endearing nickname would never have been created — much less believed by black liberals for many years until the emergence of Obama.

By contrast, the left, with unutterable alacrity, vociferously argued that George W. Bush’s less-than-stellar handling of Hurricane Katrina was indicative of his incurable allergy toward black skin.  Even largely apolitical rapper Kanye West took the time out to accuse Bush of not caring about blacks.  The fact that Bush packed his administration with exceptionally well-qualified minorities was completely disregarded when the black left gave Bush his failing report card.  One can only imagine the panic-stricken cries of racism that would have been heard for years if Bush had overseen 16.1 percent black unemployment.

It is nothing more than liberal hypocrisy to see the crisis evident in the black community under Obama’s watch and simply respond with the contemptible shibboleth stating, "Obama is not the president of black America; he’s the president of the United States of America" — especially when every other president in recent history has been critically judged on their treatment of the black community.  Mr. Okeem is a freelance writer and can be contacted at mrokeem@gmail.com .  His blog on politics and culture can be read at voiceofchid.com
