Barack Obama says Robert Byrd, a former KKK Grand Wizard was "An Icon"

[Stone Cold]

Robert byrd is a symbol of America and it's progress through the years



Byrd also said that his views changed dramatically after his teenage grandson was killed in a 1982 traffic accident, which put him in a deep emotional valley. "The death of my grandson caused me to stop and think," said Byrd, adding he came to realize that African-Americans love their children as much as he does his.[74] During debate in 1983 over the passage of the law creating the Martin Luther King Jr. Day holiday, Byrd grasped the symbolism of the day and its significance to his legacy, telling members of his staff "I'm the only one in the Senate who must vote for this bill".[71]

I actually trust a white man who admits he was a misguided racist fukk than a white man who claims he has never done a racist thing in his life.

Robert byrd was a product of his environment and actually took the initiative to turn his bullshyt around. Wish more politicians would expose themselves for their transgressions and ask for forgiveness.

Then are we going to pretend the Democrats are the main culprits of upholding the 13th amendment to incarcerate Black males?

Bill Clinton admits his crime law made mass incarceration 'worse'

So Barak Obama signed the "Blue Alert" law to protect police





So why isn't the Democratic party thought of as just as evil as the Republican party, in which both do not share our interests?



Explain this to me brehs

Lbj a Democrat was the main force behind the civil rights act which many Republicans apposed. That is why you saw the switch in parties.

“Anytime you throw your weight behind a political party that controls 2/3 of the government, and that party can’t keep their promises they made to you during election time and you’re dumb to continue to walk around identify with that party not only are you a CHUMP, but you are a TRAITOR to your race”
