Vanessa Carmichael, writing for the Huffington Post, is claiming that “white conservatives” will “seize on anything” that will support the “white supremacy” that rules the United States.
In her article “About That Racist Email Your Grandmother Got…,” Carmichael complains about her “soon-to-be grandmother-in-law,” who saw an interview on Sean Hannity in which a black woman criticized “the Black Lives Matter movement for highlighting police brutality while basically ignoring black-on-black crime.”
Carmichael dismisses that assertion, and instead says that, sometimes, “liberal black people” don’t want to talk about their problems because they don’t trust white people: “liberal black people might talk about their concern more openly and fervently if they felt they could trust white people to end racial injustice and police brutality.”
And part of the reason for that is because “white conservatives will seize on anything to maintain the status quo, which enshrines white supremacy.”
It’s logical, in a way, for racist conservatives to do this, Carmichael continues. “Scapegoats are
convenient and work is hard enough,” she writes. “It’s great to not have to deal with your race when applying for a job or working at the office. It’s great to not have to worry about your race when a cop pulls you over.”
She continues, “It is in the interest of white conservatives to avoid fair competition by preserving these privileges, and that is the primary reason why Fox News will continue to pander to them by talking about black-on-black crime rather than police brutality.”
“It is in the interest of white conservatives to avoid fair competition by preserving these privileges, and that is the primary reason why Fox News will continue to pander to them by talking about black-on-black crime rather than police brutality,” Carmichael argues.
White people have work to do, Carmichael concludes. “Conservatives have just as much work to do in changing the straight white male hegemony in our institutions, media, and corporations,” she writes.
Requiring blacks to obey the law equals “police brutality.”
And denigrating non-black skin colored people in favor of blacks is RACISM…..but those good people can’t seem to wear that glass slipper…guess they are trolls.
Vanessa, the “work” ended April 9, 1865.
Your people can’t keep blaming your inadequacies on Caucasians
Please…please….bitch, just STFU
Couldn’t find a bio of her on the net so I wonder about how educated or bright she is. She seems to just be one of the house racists over at the Huff and Puff Post who hates everything white, forgives everything black (except for blacks who don’t toe the line) and writes with just the correct level of snark for those hipsters and lefties that read that rag. Anyway, screw the ho, er that is how her crowd describe women right?
I believe she’s got it backwards-blacks are using whites as an excuse for their ruined communities, wasted lives, broken families and thug culture.
Para phrasing the old Israeli question about what would happen if the Israelis unarmed themselves vs what would happen if the Palis wanted to live peaceably ask yourself this,
What would happen to any country that was exclusively black(there are many examples) vs what would America be like if there were no blacks living here?
Chalk it up to a victimhood mentality REgressives have fostered for blacks, a leadership eager to push racial strife and combine that with a lower IQ and a willingness to take the easy way and Wall-La, you’ve got the makings for a race war.
Just one thing, when white people finally start killing, no one can touch us for brutality. Just keep pushing against what you perceive to be weakness bitches.
The world hasn’t seen what a pissed off America really looks like since WWII, where, as I recall, we stacked up more dead enemies in a shorter period of time than the world had ever experienced prior.
I think you are correct that our native intelligence, general decency, and patience is perceived as weakness.
I also agree that this is a major miscalculation on their part.
Why do Africans insist on proving to the world how stupid they are?
I’d say claiming all blacks – though inaccurate – to be BLACK SUPREMACISTS would come closer to the truth.
Well as white male over 50 I am sick of blacks using slave holders who have been dead for well over a century as their scapegoats.
Yes history happened. True history can’t be changed. We live with it warts and all. But successful people also learn from it, do better and move on and stop excusing their shortcomings and follies on things that happened way before they were born.
So here some ideas to learn from history
1. be part of a traditional family. No white person is forcing any
black guy to go around and impregnate umpteem baby mamas.
that is a curse brought upon the black community itself.
2. settle on some descriptor and live with it. White has described me my entire life. I have not spent one moment coming up with the next adjective to be offended by.
3. Realize that MLK’s dream was for everyone to be color blind
and the only way to achieve that is for a person’s race not be mentioned unless it is integral to the story. I.E. be on the look out for a black male 6ft running from bank that was robbed.
that makes sense to use black. Here is one that does not
John Henry, a African American, invented a faster way to recharge a cell phone. So what? What race he is makes no difference . The story is that someone did society some good. Leave out racial reference.
Get the pic?
This is an obvious case of the pot calling the kettle black. (Someone had to say it.)
Also, it’s articles like this that make me feel superior.
The big pendulum always swings back, and it feels like perhaps it’s headed back our way again, doesn’t it?
The big difference this time is that we’ve spent $20 TRILLION trying to prop the blacks up, we put a black man in the White House to assuage our collective guilt, and after all of it, we have very, very little to show for the trouble. In fact, relations between white and black Americans have even deteriorated, and many of us “non-blacks” are very, very tired of trying anymore.
The white well of empathy is about drained out.
And yet they persist in seeing us as the problem.
As you say, at some point the inadequacies need to be assigned to their source.
“Conservatives have just as much work to do in changing the straight white male hegemony in our institutions, media, and corporations”
mm.. no.
Your move.
(click-click)
Oh, that’s good. They have achieved this goal and what have they done with it except continue to beat a dead horse?
This is just another in an over-long series of specious, sophist arguments from a black power activist who has given no thought whatsoever to all the miraculous things she enjoys living in a country founded, settled and built — for the most part — by the evil white people. Very few blacks wanted to return to their motherland, Monrovia, at the close of the Civil War. Now, why was that?
Well you COULD go somewhere that blacks are the majority….like Zimbabwe, the Sudan, Nigeria….
Yeah, I didn’t think so.
“The white well of empathy is about drained out.”
Ding ding ding! We have a winner! Spot on!
I. Don’t. Care. Anymore.
Whites don’t worry about their race, fine,
but blacks force whites to worry about their race.
Proven over and over again.
luv ya, Chief, but disagree
we’ve spent $20 TRILLION trying to prop the blacks up
LBJ stuck it to then current and future American private sector wage earners to BUY the “ni99er” vot for the next 200 years, and now it’s $23 T – ALSO, Dems have spent $2T in benefits for getting the spic vote for the next 200 years.. wait, all they need is another election cycle or two before it’s commie forever
I offer a historical outlook to the black community, we aren’t afraid, we are civilized.
The white man, throughout it’s long history, has developed more efficient ways to kill those who would suffer us harm.
Think about it.
The Irony: Scapegoating white CONSERVATIVES for scapegoating black liberals. Its not the conservatives keeping yall ‘Down on the Plantation’, sister. That would be the panderers in the Democratic Party. She’d realize this if she stopped voting democrat for a couple of elections.
Yeah, like I’m going to spend my money and time to watch, “Star Wars VII: Django Jedi.”
“we put a black man in the White House to assuage our collective guilt”
WHOSE collective guilt? Maybe yours. Maybe other Libtards. Not MY guilt. I never owned slaves. My ancestors never owned slaves (most of them were either legal immigrants, or native Americans). Me and my ancestors never prevented blacks from being educated or employed.
I realize you’re speaking rhetorically to explain why Libtards put the Mom-Jeans-In-Chief in the Red Shed, not just ONCE, but TWICE, but this collective royal “we” just chaps my ass. So please don’t take my rant personally against you. Thank you.
and go away
Because ‘F’ is the lowest grade handed out.
She probably paid Huff-Pooh to use her ‘report’, which is some sort of essay for some black victim course at your average University.
Yes, rhetorically, “we” refers to Americans. Lots and lots of demented Americans. Really soft-headed, mindless, moronic Americans. So daft, so deluded, that they shit the collective bed with Obummer not just once, but twice.
Like you, I have never suffered from white guilt for a minute in my life. I happen to actually like and respect white people. I’m even married to one. A female, BTW.
I just don’t care for the ones who voted for Obummer.
In fact, THOSE types can FOAD.
But thanks for the opportunity to clear things up.
I’m “African-Americaned” out. I’m sick of illiterate losers blaming me for their lack of achievement, regardless of their ethnicity, but I’m particularly sick of black people using the race card and hurling insults my way. It’s almost to the point that I’ll go ahead and start acting like a racist, since I’m accused of it anyway, but I won’t. I know too many people who are Americans of African descent (yeah, they’re Americans first and foremost) who aren’t racist losers to indiscriminately be shitty to someone based on their ancestry, but I’m also not going to take any shit from racist black losers and their pathetic white leftist cohorts. I think leftists have been pushing for a “race war”, so they’ll have an excuse to suspend what few rights we have remaining. If they overreach on this one, they’ll lose, and it will be ugly. I’ll just leave it at that.
Bingo Steven,
This is all part of a bigger picture, Marxist utopia, in other words a demonic pipe dream.
Somebody, please spare me the agony of reading her essay — what does she complain about white progressives, white liberals, white socialists, white communists? What has she got against those white devils?
“Just one thing, when white people finally start killing, no one can touch us for brutality.”
A line in one of the books written by one of my favorite authors, George MacDonald Fraser (Flashman), talking about the British wiping out the Thugees in India – Flashman reflects, “there’s nothing more dangerous than a justified Christian.”
Perfect example of psychological projection. She’s talking about herself.
Her logic (or lack thereof) would bring us to one big lawless tribe, and she is asking (SCRATCH) Demanding the rest of acquiesce to the blacks’ wishes.
No.
Now we have war fodder.
They will not be satisfied until all is brought down to ghetto level, because, it’s not “fair”.
Suck it up Lemonquisha, it don’t go like dat.
There also exists a small garden that houses baby turtles in its small lake.
Top Spain City Breaks Barcelona, Madrid, Valencia, Palma de

I like this web site very much, Its a rattling nice situation to read and obtain info . “Never contend with a man who has nothing to lose.” by Baltasar Gracian.
