Up until 1960 whites were 90% of the demographic so how can minorities claim to have built America | |

Quoting: Surrealistic Endeavors And since your bringing up the subject of 'White': How is it Spain and Italy claim to be non-White (Latino), but the country between them (France), is? Seriously. people from Spain are more white than the Irish. |

Quoting: HolloH Settlers came at around 1607 Slaves were brought over 1619 Slavery was abolished 1865 So the settlers came and did their their building for 8 years, then slaves labored 246 years doing the hard labor that history won't care to record, while whites "built america" by creating papers to sign with there quills which history will have recorded/credited. After finally abolishing slavery whites almost immediately begin their venture into hard labor by working to driving out more natives out their lands so they can carve the faces of their leaders onto a mountain known today as Mt. Rushmore, finally completing this non essential but highly memorable piece of foundation so that you remember these 4 men as the ones "built" America. And finally on 1941 (just 19 years before your 1960 glory days) after mostly fighting natives for the mountain and 14 years of actual good ol hard it was complete. By the time slavery ends America already had it's foundations built and the first 8 years compared to the 246 slave years amount to 1/30th of he work. As for politics and government, there wasn't opportunities available for minorities to contribute What a load of bullshit, propaganda. Try this philosophy in life: Don’t dwell on the past, as you can’t change it. Don’t project the future, as it isn’t yet determined. Live in the present and make the best of your abilities. |

If you do good in school, you have the benefit of affirmative action to get a great job. If you don't do well in school, we have government housing, government food, and welfare checks. If you crank out the babies, you can get assistance. Sounds like the white middle class, is doing a good job of keeping you in food and shelter. If you don't like it here, you could reclaim Africa, and move there. I'm sure the same middle class, will assist with moving expenses. Now what has the European White Male done for the world, not just blacks here in America. We won WW2, we give aid to the world when crisis strikes. What we didn't build we invented. things like electricity, the phone, the combustion engine, modern medicine, cold food storage, air flight...ETC. most bitching about whites is plain jealously and racism. IF you know a white man, thank him...Without him, you would be riding a horse or camel, and have none of the modern pleasures of life. |

As the White population ages and becomes less than 50%, the fact that most American Cultural and Historical symbol systems are heavily white will naturally not sit well with the rising minorities. Thus the toppling of statues, the re-writing of history books and so on. It is a traumatic and often ugly process. One thing we can learn is that history is never about the "truth." It is about creating a shared cultural system that binds the populace together. Demographics is destiny. One could argue that the death of the old Roman paganism and the rise of Christianity was also a result of demographic change: Rome was swept over and over with waves of conquerers from the north and the east; the demographic, cultural and even genetic makeup of the "Roman Citizenry" was very different in 400 AD than it was in 100 AD. The old Gods died because they lost relevance for newcomers. |

Quoting: JackalMan They came here and took it from someone else who lived here first. Thats the way everyone got where they are at. A lot of races were brought to where they are now by slavery. If we had to give back our lands no one would have a place to live on this planet. None of us living now caused the problems we all complain about. Why fight old battles that are not and never will be yours to fight? You need to grow up and stop fighting about what the government wants you to fight about and start fighting about fixing the problems of today. The problems that affect you NOW. Argue over those problems. "The american indians did not pop up here like little red daisies. They came here and took it from someone else who lived here first." I really dont know, myself. I've had suspicions about that whole thing though, and for good reasons. To be honest, and live in reality, many thing centuries ago would be\could be viewed as 'slavey' with little to no monetary systems. Many decades ago a, no older than 12 yo, i was sitting in a class and a teacher was readiing from a book about events supposedly transpiring over a hundred years ago and even as a child i could not help but wonder 'how do you know this is true?' I said to myself - 'atrocities (crimes) were comitted just last night, only miles away, and yet this person does not know about them yet here you are reading words on a paper to me and what? |

Starting with Levittown NJ the model for Suburbia arose and people began to leave the cities and commute back and forth to work every day since most of the jobs were still in the city. Those who were too poor to move out of the city were left behind. Some heroically saved the cities by hard work and reinvestment while other cities fell into ruin. "Urban Spraw" has greatly lead to the destruction of many cities and the misuse of aggricable land. The Corporate World Model has destroyed the American dream of either the glorious and prosperous industrial city, or the family farm. "Minorities" as you put it are neither black nor white. They are both and have one thing in common. They were poor and left behind. |

Quoting: Dr. Novosel For the country as a whole, the average (median) income of families in 1960 was $5,600, and that was probably with just the husband working. In 1960, the median home value in the U.S. was $11,900. So basically 2 years of your salary. Now, the only people making real money are the bankers, and industrial military complex. The only thing minorities can truly claim is the destruction of the once greatest country in the world. The whites didn't mention who built what. The Chinese built the railroads. 100s died doing it. When it was all finished, the US government made it illegal to give a Chinese a job. What did the Chinese immigrants do? They didn’t whine, they improved and became some of the most successful people in their cities. I wish another group would shut up and do something positive. They died in droves and those who survived were treated like shit. Even now their sons and daughters are not accepted as equals by the whites. |

Mankind and its cultures, for the last several thousand years, have been consisted basically of 2 elements: on the one hand, what was inherited from the past (sometimes a very remote past hardly understood or even conceived of); OTOH, renewal, exploration and intellectual work and the resulting enormously increase knowledge of the physical world going together with the development of science. The latter has resulted in modern civilization now spread out globally. |
