One thing is for sure: lynching was not motivated by hate for
"black" people. Similarly, riding donkeys was not motivated by
hate for donkeys. Here is the donkey-riding photo:

Do the "whites" look like they hate the donkeys they are riding?
Or do the "whites" look like they just think it's OK to be
"white"? (Also note the sexually dimorphic riding postures
(which have nothing to do with hating the donkeys either). See

"Whites" hate no one. Bullies never hate their victims. Their
victims are their entertainment. Why would they hate their own
entertainment? Hate is a leftist emotion:

Here's what I would do if someone proved to me beyond a
reasonable doubt that the identity that had been forced on me
was in fact evil: I would instantly stop identifying with that
identity, and then spend the rest of my life denouncing it
publicly whenever possible. I figure that would be the least I
should do in order to attempt to right the wrong for those who
had been wronged by the evil identity that had been forced on me
without my consent. To not do so would only mean that I actually
do consent to said evil identity and that I have no problem with
the evil, would it not?

documentation of the Klan as a highly visible part of life on

exposed, attended funerals, held rallies, sponsored fire
department events and marched in community parades.

Long Island had the largest Klan membership in New York and the
Klan had “a strong presence on most of Long Island” until the
late 1970s, according to Verga. Klan members “infiltrated local
real estate markets and law enforcement and gained political
influence.” Real estate brokers, mortgage bankers and insurance
companies were their “financial backbone,” Verga wrote.

and outright racism toward Black Americans
> ...
> Here are a few examples:
>
> • Rutherford Hayes, president from 1877-1881, claimed to be a
friend of African Americans’ rights. At his inauguration, he
said “a true self-government” must be “a government which guards
the interests of both races carefully and equally.” But he cut a
shady deal to win the presidency in the 1876 election, whose
result was as hotly disputed as the 2000 Bush-Gore contest. In
that deal, he agreed to withdraw federal troops from Southern
states where they’d been protecting Blacks from the Ku Klux Klan
and white supremacist depredations. Over the next two decades,
Southern whites drove virtually all Black elected officials from
office, often by fraud and sometimes at gunpoint, and about
1,500 Southern Blacks were lynched.
>
> • William McKinley, president from 1897-1901, delivered an
inaugural address extolling equal rights and declared,
“Lynchings must not be tolerated.” However, he remained silent
when white supremacists in Wilmington, North Carolina, staged an
1898 coup that ousted all Black elected officials and killed at
least 60 Blacks. His lack of response to lynchings prompted a
Black-owned newspaper to observe, “The Negroes of this country
turn with impatience, disappointment and disgust from Mr.
McKinley’s fence-straddling and shilly-shallying discussion of
lynch law.”
>
> • Theodore Roosevelt, president from 1901-1909, believed in
white superiority while simultaneously advocating educational
opportunity regardless of race. In a letter to a friend, he
wrote, “Now as to the Negroes! I entirely agree with you that as
a race and in the mass they are altogether inferior to the
whites.”
>
> • Woodrow Wilson, president from 1913-1921, promised fair
treatment for African Americans in his 1912 campaign. But once
elected, he defended his Southern Cabinet members who segregated
workers in federal departments that hadn’t been segregated,
writing, “It is as far as possible from being a movement against
the negroes. I sincerely believe it to be in their interest.”
Black Democrat Robert Wood of New York unsuccessfully urged
Wilson to reverse the segregation policy: “We resent it, not at
all because we are particularly anxious to eat in the same room
or use the same soap and towels that white people use, but
because we see in the separation in the races in the matter of
soup and soap the beginning of a movement to deprive the colored
man entirely of soup and soap, to eliminate him wholly from the
Civil Service.” In a testy White House exchange, Wilson
chastised William Monroe Trotter and other Black leaders,
asserting that, “Segregation is not a humiliation but a benefit,
and ought to be so regarded by you gentlemen. If your
organization goes out and tells the colored people of the
country that it is a humiliation, they will so regard it … The
only harm that will come will be if you cause them to think it
is a humiliation.”
>
> • Franklin Roosevelt, president from 1933-1945, was widely
admired among African Americans. While his New Deal programs did
not benefit Blacks and whites equally, Blacks did receive
benefits. But FDR’s actions were always guided by his need to
appease Southern segregationists in Congress to pass his other
agenda items. And his attitude could be condescending, as when
he met with Black leaders about integrating the military. He
advised a gradual approach, particularly with the Navy: “We are
training a certain number of musicians on board ship. The ship’s
band. There’s no reason why we shouldn’t have a colored band on
some of these ships, because they’re darn good at it.”

Finding Your Roots: How Italians became White
--- Quote ---
> Finding your roots? We delve into the forgotten history of
Sicilian and Italian immigrants in the Jim Crow South of the
United States. Initially welcomed as a source of cheap labor
after the Civil War, Sicilian immigrants faced discrimination
and persecution as they sought better wages and living
conditions. Despite their efforts to assimilate and build
successful businesses, they were viewed as not fully white by
white Southerners, who imposed on them the same persecution that
was customarily inflicted upon African Americans. Shedding light
on a dark chapter of American history that is often overlooked,
let's find out how (and when) Italians became "White" in
American.

People of Italian origin living in American land have to stop
being "white" and need to be re-mediterraneanized asap. I feel
like the America's are severely lacking in culture, and instead
what we have here is a all pervading, cancerous business mindset
and ethos. It's a duty for all people of Mediterranean blood to
destroy their inner "white" and other blood poisons so that they
can start bringing culture to this place, which will reduce
racial and tribal tensions.
