“We are sending a signal across the nation and to the global community that we make these changes in the spirit of truth-telling,” Council Member Alondra Cano said ahead of the Council meeting.
“Now that we have established Indigenous People's Day, every child -- whether that child is native or whether that child is not -- will learn the truth about where America really comes from," added U.S. Rep. Keith Ellison.

What an odd field of expertise.
I remember re-reading that and laughing about it when I read the article. [Reply]

I'm guessing that was the focus of his dissertation. [Reply]
In 50 years, these nutball whacko whiteys will probably be onto more pressing issues: removing Ronald Reagan's name from any and all federal buildings, naval ships, the airport in DC, etc etc. [Reply]

You seem to complain a lot without actually saying anything. Do you have a point, besides the fact that white people shouldn't care about anyone but white people? [Reply]

Excellent work, tool.
This thread is about white doofuses? That's news to me. Your article has quotes from two people...Alondra Cano (Mexican-raised Hispanic) and Keith Ellison (Black). It also features a picture of an unnamed woman holding a sign. Now, I can't say for sure what race she is, but I can tell you with certainty that she isn't white. [Reply]

Google is your friend, Saul. 10/13 council members are whiteys [Reply]

We've already established that at least two of them are Hispanic or black. I guess that means either Abdi Warrame or Blong Yang is white. I'll just assume so in order to hold out some hope that you can count to ten. [Reply]

Dear dipshit:
Ellison isn't on the council, he's a Congressman quoted in the story. I really don't feel like it's fair for me to hold your hand through this. If you click on the photos, you'll see 10/13. [Reply]

So where were we discussing whiteys again, then? Your article contained quotes from two people and a picture of another. Not a cracka in the bunch. At least throw a token honkey in there if you want to use the self-loathing white person narrative. [Reply]

Yet you seem to need all sorts of handholding when it comes to understanding and reporting of research. [Reply]

Quiet, you. We're trying to have a discussion about white people.

How about the part where you seem to believe that white people should care only about white people? Is that accurate?
I just want to make sure I understand your position here. [Reply]
