The Only Coup d’Etat in the US Was 124 yrs Ago...Will History Repeat Itself?
Being a native of the Carolinas and of a certain age, I know my history. Most folks have no clue that the only successful coup d’etat in the US was on Nov. 19, 1898. It was known as the Wilmington Race Riots. The elders used to say the Cape Fear River looked like red dye was in the water. Growing up as a child, this particular topic was taboo and never discussed in public. (Yeah, I’m that old)

In a nutshell, the Democrats didn’t like how conservative (Republican) black folks down in Wilmington were raising themselves and their communities up in businesses, organizations, etc. The media back then, Raleigh’s newspaper The News and Observer owned by Josephus Daniels, was the mouthpiece for powerful elected/appointed officials. End result was the Wilmington Race Riots, which really was the excuse used when it was really about politics that successful blacks held to.

Few links for those who’ve never heard about this bit of obscure history....

So, here we are coming up on 124 yrs anniversary next month. Will history repeat itself? OMG, I hear some of y’all yellin’ top of your lungs that that shit has already happened. Yeah, yeah, I feel same way but over the past several decades.

I just find it interesting how history really does rhyme at least, or repeats.

OK, maybe you didn't quite grasp the last part of my post or maybe you just didn't read it.

This shit has been going on for a very long time. The example I cited changed my STATE's political fabric from local to state levels. Many good people running for office have lost due to rigged-by-any-method voting.

Did you not see where I cited that earlier as an example? But it's never been officially categorized as a coup.

The War of 1812 connected

Rest assured... a certain windowless building in every community is connected. below is a post i placed in response to someone on FB regarding the issue of Slavery. and what lead up to it...


Are you familiar with the rise of the Abolishment Movement in Victorian England? 60 years before our Civil War? It crammed it's views down the British Admiralty collective throats at the time. was the long and the short of it. hereby the formation of the West Africa Squadron to block the Slave Trade. (The real reason for the War of 1812?)... this is a pencil drawing from that era (personally i just discovered this.. still a bit stunned.) this is a screen capture from a talk by a British Naval Histrographer.. Notice the flag on the [slaver(masonic owned ship)] .. it is scene of a of a fast screw driven Corvette firing a shot across the bow of a paddle wheel slave ship.

edit to add: the highlighted above is the first instance that i have used 'q talk' in discuss with a 'normie'. (a bit of personal history there)

Re: The Only Coup d’Etat in the US Was 124 yrs Ago...Will History Repeat Itself?
i like the history of ships and Drachinifel knows what he talking about on the subject, from a very British standpoint. Drach stepped off in some murky waters, when he got off in the subject of the slave trade though. the issue brings up the real world of Admiralty Law... where it stands today. And the Ownership of mine and yours's actual [Birth(Berth) Certificate] The British Crown owns both of us, believe it or not.. THAT IS WHY THERE IS FRINGE ON OUR FLAG. we are under Admiralty Law. . Through [the United States of america Incorporated....a wholly owned Subsidiary of the Hudson Bay Trading Company] of Canada> owned by The Crown of England. in this video segment... since Drachinifel is a Brit, he dang sure won't mention the above implications (the above is not generally known). The first third of the video .. this is relave to how he forms his viewpoints.. then at the 12:00 mins mark, he gets to the hot water surrounding the issue of of human beings owning other human beings. The explosive part, British Admiralty Law on the subject. Who actually was paid for the capture of ship prizes and slaves.... The English community of men that worked for the Crown. While engaged in this 'business.' the above mentioned screenshot is posted(17:00) minutes in. Of the double cross of the Masons in America ...being percuited by the Crown of England for doing the very same thing they are doing. Buying and selling human beings ...Drach has to do some fancy footwork to extricate himself from the legal controversy of slavery raised by his viewers. they blew him out of the water with documents of where this actually went on

Ty!
rose

Yes! about the Ivory Coast. it's implications were/are profound. The upper middle class of men during that time were Bastards. no other way to describe them. Territory and Naval Prizes. That is what it was all about. (other than domestic capitalistic 'wins'.) The Sea Captains were often where they practice their version of domestic life-At Sea [(floating horror houses.. ie raping cabin boys)] ... while the Ladies in Waiting thought nothing but achieving higher social standing... moar moar.. Drach does not go into any of the above.. But the formation of the West Africa Squadron was a bit of proof in a strange way, of the train wreck in Admiralty Law that ensued.

No reading comprehension problems on the readers' part. You made a declarative statement that's false and proceeded to restate the claim throughout your info presentation. Perhaps read your title and post again.

Is it how I'm wording all this?! Or is it a case of reading comprehension? Damn, the teacher in me just rears up sometimes.

No reading comprehension problems on the readers' part. You made a declarative statement that's false and proceeded to restate the claim throughout your info presentation. Perhaps read your title and post again.

Then take up your issue w/ history.com since it's their headline I sourced. Perhaps you didn't get earlier where I said there have been many coups throughout history.

Here is what most folks would deem a somewhat credible source saying 'only successful' in our country's history.

Not changing headline since it does get some folks curious enough to read. Maybe a few folks will learn something new. I always do at this cyber bar.
