She doesn’t need to say it either. She’s being obviously divisive, and you and a few others are defending it.

Everything honoring MLK in America needs to be taken down because they certainly aren’t honoring him or what he preached.

Tribal racism from this group of people. I’m shocked. When the Obamas Ben crump and LeBron shout you out, you are officially part of the victimhood race grift. It pays to keep it alive even if untrue and particularly ridiculous. Remember when Obama was gonna be the great uniter?! lol

That is what I would like to know. Who is not allowed to be proud?


I mean in America, only us Woke people are not allowed to be proud. But yet Nazi, Confederate flag wavers have every right to be proud of their heritage.

You are such a disingenuous loser.

What time period? You playin' in the 1940s?

Even Jackie Robinson didn't say, "I only play for Black Dodger fans".

But MSM and our pitiful education system has convinced a large segment of the population that 2025 is closer to 1855...And they're waiting on Emancipation.

Whining about America, divide by race, this race is doing ok but this race is not, proclaiming yourself a representative of "your" people. The typical black mantra.

Maybe one day us single white guys will have something to cheer about.
