Unless your older brother was actually a Tuskeegee Airman, then I'm guessing he wasn't alive during WWII, and therefore would get his info from the same places a white guy of similar age would.

I guarantee you I know more about the Tuskeegee Airmen than most people - white OR black

I dunno... maybe he read a book!!!!!!!!!!!!

Here's a test for you, Dal.

Are you familiar with the Walterboro incident involving a Tuskegee Airman? I'll give you a hint: it involves an ice cream counter at a drugstore. Let's see if a white dude might know more about this subject than you.

I'm all for embracing MLKs complexity...from the labor movement involvement to the war protesting to the plagiarism and communist sympathizing assiciates.

And let's just say I have a hunch if he were around today he'd be a victim of #metoo.

It's fine to venerate him because he's earned it but take the halo off and look at the whole picture.

Are you asserting that a white person isn't capable of knowing more than a black person about something like Tuskegee? That's racist, dal. It's mostly ignorant, but it's racist.

I'm just throwing his shit back at him. Saying it's not possible for a person of 1 race to know something of another race is pretty stupid. But it comes from a place of prejudice. :twocents:

But yeah - it's very stupid.

It isn't out there on Google, to my knowledge. I heard the story directly from a <ahem> Tuskegee Airman. It was reprinted in the P&C, I believe. I have not been able to find it online.


They had a reunion in Charleston some years back, and if there's any public gathering of people who ever flew piston engine planes in combat happening near me, I go. (especially Tuskegee Airmen)

My point was black ppl were denied access to knowledge about our ppl's past accomplishments!!!!This video with MLK is a perfect example we have been inundated with his " I HAVE A DREAM SPEECH" as if that was the only noteworthy speech he has ever made in his life.

Blacks aren’t being denied access to Buffalo Soldiers, Tuskegee Airmen, etc....

If blacks don’t know about their history then it’s their own fault. Same goes for ANYONE.

Are you familiar with the Walterboro incident involving a Tuskegee Airman? I'll give you a hint: it involves an ice cream counter at a drugstore. Let's see if a white dude might know more about this subject than you.
My brother is a well read individual but you still fail to realize WHITE AMERICANS had a obvious advantage YOU WERE ALLOWED TO EXPAND YOUR EDUCATIONAL KNOWLEDGE without fear of death!!!!!!!

Wow. Jim Crow is over, man. Black enrollment in college is up. The National Guard isn't lining the sidewalks so blacks can safely get an education. Times have changed brother, get with the program. :twocents: You can't keep clinging to the injustices and the problems of the past, especially when great strides have been made to make sure those same injustices don't reoccur. Blacks today have so many opportunities to learn in class, online and provide for themselves and their families that, 50 years ago, wasn't widely available.

If you REALLY think Jim Crow is over I have HUGE surprise for you read the book THE NEW JIM CROW written by MICHELLE ALEXANDER this book was recently taken off the reading list by NJ Prisons but the ACLU in New Jersey declared this move to be UNCONSTITUTIONAL!!!!

In the past that was true we now we know about those brave men and what they endured in their lifetime.The lack of knowledge for black ppl its a after effect of slavery.

:ohno: The only ones that are choosing to be seperate but equal are whiny college students who don't want to sit, eat,or sleep next to whites. Otherwise, you can eat in the same diner as me. Vote in the same elections as me. Jim Crow laws mandated racial segregation. Please show me the current laws that require the same. Please show me all the anti-black laws. I'll be waiting over there with Cid for your response.
