Langston Hughes vs. George S. Schuyler on Negro Art

 

I’ve just re-published George S. Schuyler’s 1926 polemic, “The Negro-Art Hokum,” and Langston Hughes’ polemical rejoinder, “The Negro Artist and the Racial Mountain,” at my blog, Schuyleriana: The Work and Life of George Schuyler.


In the Twin Cities, Pioneer Press “Reporter” Bob Shaw Mugs Readers...and Crime Victims

Minneapolis: Raceless Perp Sought in Home Garage Robberies of Raceless Little Old Ladies

I’ve got to come up with a new journalism booby prize for alleged reporters who have not sunk to a level deserving of one of my Duranty-Blair Awards for Journalistic Infamy.

One winner of such an award would be Bob Shaw of the Twin Cities’ Pioneer Press.

An extremely dangerous man is breaking into home garages, and terrorizing little old ladies in Minneapolis, robbing them as they return home, and exit their vehicles. Although he cases homes of elderly women—the older, the better—and used a rifle or shotgun in one robbery, and thus is extremely dangerous, Shaw refused to identify the race of the perp or the victims, thus putting the community at increased risk of robbery, rape, and murder, while causing hysteria through his worthless “reporting.”

Minneapolis police are seeking help from the public in catching a suspect in two recent robberies of senior citizens.

About 6 a.m. Saturday, a man grabbed an 85-year-old woman who was getting out of her car in her garage in the 3000 block of 45th Avenue South. He threw her to the ground and escaped with her purse.

On Monday, police believe the same man, armed with a rifle or shotgun, confronted a 66-year-old woman. She had just parked her car in her garage in the 4700 block of East 45th Street at 9 a.m....

[“Minneapolis / Suspect sought in seniors’ robberies,” by Bob Shaw, Pioneer Press, Updated 12/02/2010, 11:53:22 P.M., CST.]

The anonymous reader who gave me the link to Bob Shaw’s—remember that name!—non-story has a notion as to the what the missing details of the story might be. He wrote:

The local fishwraps in Mogadishu on the Upper Mississippi aid and abet minority criminals in the same manner.

Example, this execrable excuse for reporting.

In recent years, the refugee resettlement racket has succeeded in foisting thousands of racist, violent, jihad-drunken Moslem Somalis on what had previously been one of the most wholesome, safest—and not by coincidence, whitest—areas in America. Things have deteriorated to the point where young Somali men attack lone white men on the street in broad daylight, and film the attacks. But when the police got their hands on some of the videos, they couldn’t identify any of the victims, none of whom had reported the crimes. Apparently, the police, using William Bratton-style revolutionary policing techniques, had discouraged the white populace from even reporting black-on-white crimes.

(Update: 4:20 p.m., on Thursday, December 9, 2010.)

However, we cannot assume that the perp is black (though odds are that he was), for the Twin Cities have also been blessed with Hmong gangs who have devoted themselves over the past two-three years to driving whites out of public spaces, such as the cities’ beautiful public parks.

The takeover of public space is one of the fundamental methods whereby a “diverse,” insurgent group takes a bland, boring, hideously white area, and transforms it into a vibrant diversitopia.

Since I wrote the first part of this report as “Minneapolis: Raceless Perp Sought in Home Garage Robberies of Raceless Little Old Ladies,” the same anonymous reader who first informed me about alleged reporter Bob Shaw has sent me a different story about an armed robber, written in a much different fashion by the same “reporter.” My reader remarked, “In all fairness to ‘reporter’ Bob Shaw, he can report the race of perpetrators.....when he feels like it.”

South St. Paul police are looking for a man who they say robbed the same convenience store twice, in addition to robbing a store in Edina.

About 4 p.m. Nov. 25 [NS: the day known by Americans as Thanksgiving], a man armed with a handgun robbed a gas station at 1040 S. Concord St. in South St. Paul. On Wednesday, the same man robbed the same store again, at about the same time of day.

In both cases, police said, the gunman brandished a black, semiautomatic handgun. No one was injured in the robberies.

Police believe the same man is responsible for a recent armed robbery at the Edina Market & Deli…

The suspect is described as a white male in his late 20s, about 5 feet 6 inches tall, with a medium build.

He was seen driving a small four-door tan vehicle with one of the rear windows broken out….

[“South St. Paul / Suspect sought in three holdups,” by Bob Shaw, Pioneer Press, Updated: 12/02/2010 11:45:46 PM CST.]

(Commenter Matt quipped, “Wow, they actually said his gun was black, is that politically correct?”)

The second story is rich in the sort of details that the first story also should have contained, starting with the perp’s race, height, build, etc.

Bob Shaw, friend of non-white criminals, but scourge of white thugs!

And how do I know the armed robber in the first story wasn’t white? Because had he been white, Shaw would surely have said so.

Viva la revolucion!

That represents a strong advantage for Pioneer Press advertisers. When they combine the Pioneer Press with the reach of our other products, including TwinCities.com and Yahoo!, they can reach an audience of nearly 2 million adults.

That’s “an audience of nearly 2 million adult[s]” potential crime victims of violent, non-white felons, due to Bob Shaw’s betrayal of his readers and his profession.

How Would JFK Have Dealt with Bradley Manning and Julian Assange?

By Nicholas Stix

Over at Legal Insurrection, William A. Jacobson writes, in “WikiTerror In Zimbabwe,”

Heroes of the American Left, Bradley Manning and Julian Assange, have destroyed the best hope for ridding Zimbabwe of madman Robert Mugabe by releasing U.S. State Department cables of communications between Prime Minister Morgan Tsvangirai, the leading opponent of Mugabe, and U.S. and E.U. officials, in which Tsvangirai secretly expressed support for sanctions against the brutal Mugabe regime as the only way to establish democracy in Zimbabwe.

As reported by Christopher Albon, the result of the leak of the cable has been to enable Mugabe to continue his reign of terror and to put the opposition leader's life at risk:

“The reaction in Zimbabwe was swift. Zimbabwe's Mugabe-appointed attorney general announced he was investigating the Prime Minister on treason charges based exclusively on the contents of the leaked cable. While it's unlikely Tsvangirai could be convicted on the contents of the cable alone, the political damage has already been done. The cable provides Mugabe the opportunity to portray Tsvangirai as an agent of foreign governments working against the people of Zimbabwe. Furthermore, it could provide Mugabe with the pretense to abandon the coalition government that allowed Tsvangirai to become prime minister in 2009….”

Perhaps all the people raising money for Assange and Manning will raise money for Tsvangari, not that it would do much good when Mugabe's thugs come calling in the middle of the night.

The blood of the Zimbabwe people, and the terror they will endure, are on the hands of Manning, Assange, and their supporters.

Bradley Manning is the “Army intelligence analyst and angry gay” (Ann Coulter) who, when he found himself in "an awkward place" both "emotionally and psychologically" (his words), he leaked hundreds of thousands of documents to Assange, the anti-American proprietor of Wikileaks. Coulter called Manning, the “poster boy for ‘don't ask, don't tell,’” but of course, that was before the lame-duck Congress passed The Forced Homosexualization of the Military Act.

Manning is currently in a military prison at Quantico, Virginia.

Assange is currently in jail in Sweden, awaiting prosecution on charges of having raped two Swedish women. By Assange’s “victims” own admission, they’d had consensual sex with him, but a few days later, decided they’d like to press charges against him. Twenty years ago in America, date rape hoaxes were encapsulated in the phrase, “the morning after.” In today’s Sweden, it’s “the week after.”

Meanwhile, Assange has so far gotten away with raping hundreds of millions of loyal Americans.

It’s during times like these that I miss Jack Kennedy the most. If this happened on JFK’s watch, he would have dispatched assassins to “liquidate” Manning and Assange “with extreme prejudice.”

Instead, we have gay activist Glenn Greenwald and aging traitor, Daniel Ellsberg, make that Dr. Daniel Ellsberg—don’t want to forget the traitor’s title—depicting Manning variously as a victim of “inhumane treatment” and “torture,” and as a “hero.”

Meanwhile, the left is torn between lionizing Assange as a “hero” for destroying American diplomacy, or as a “rapist” for having merely consensual sex with women, since for feminists such as Feministe’s Jill Fillipovic (who, by the way, is a practicing liar), if a woman consents to have sex with a man, but the consent is insufficiently enthusiastic, and he neglects to formally request and receive repeated, Antioch-style consent anew at every step of the way, it’s still “rape.” Presumably, if the man is black, Hispanic, or Moslem, he can do as he wishes with the wench.

Logically, Fillipovic & Co. would denounce a JFK as a “rapist”… but then you remember that Fillipovic-style feminists do not truck with logic, which for them is “phallocentric.”

So, there you have it: Bradley Manning, Julian Assange, and some of their allies.


“Obama” Bestows Presidential Medal of Freedom on Unregenerate Racist

By Nicholas Stix

That would be NBA legend Bill Russell.

As Dennis Watkins writes in “Obama awards Medal of Freedom to White-hating Russell,” at Youth for Western Civilization, Russell “refused to sign autographs for young White basketball fans, on the basis of their skin color.”

However, Russell had no inhibitions about making whites pay for his signature.

For the pro-racist side, a Celtics blogger named Jay King writes,

In those days, Boston was seen as a racist city. Russell himself once called it a “flea market of racism.” In fact, Russell experienced so much racially-motivated hatred Sports Illustrated once quoted him as saying, “I dislike most white people because they are people… I like most blacks because I am black.” When he left Boston, Russell claimed the city’s media was corrupt and racist. He couldn’t even accept his fans’ adoration; he felt the white folks who asked for his autograph only liked him because he played basketball well. If he couldn’t block shots at a phenomenal rate, Russell felt, the same fans clamoring for his signature would have seen him as just another black man….

I’m not here to impart blame on either the city or Russell. The city was wrong for judging black people and treating Russell poorly.

King does not provide a single example of Bostonians treating Russell badly. On the contrary, the only example he gives took place in Kentucky. Meanwhile, he speaks vaguely of Russell abusing adoring Boston fans, but censors himself from recounting Russell’s unforgivable racism towards white children.

And Russell’s own words, which King indirectly quotes, are the most damning indictment I can think of, of Russell’s racism: Why should fans have “clamor[ed] for his signature,” if he hadn’t been an incredible player? How did it that make them racist? The implication is that in order for them to prove to him that they weren’t racist, they would have had to walk up to every black man on the street who had no basketball talent, and ask him for his signature!

What such “logic,” or lack thereof really means is that no matter how well white fans treated Russell, he was going to be racist towards them, and rationalize his own racism by projecting it onto them.

And try and make sense out of that “I dislike most white people…” quote. The online New World Encyclopedia offers the following explanation:

Russell's thinking became increasingly militant, so far that he was quoted in a 1963 Sports Illustrated interview with the words: "I dislike most white people because they are people... I like most blacks because I am black," expressing that "human" was a negative trait and "black" was a positive trait which were mutually exclusive.[52] However, when his white Celtics teammate Frank Ramsey asked whether he hated him, Russell claimed to be misquoted, but few believed it.[52] Also, [author John] Taylor remarks that Russell overlooked that his career was only made possible by the white people who were proven anti-racists, namely his white high school coach George Powles (the person who encouraged him to play basketball), his white college coach Phil Woolpert (who integrated USF basketball), white Celtics coach Red Auerbach (who is universally regarded as an anti-racist pioneer and made him the first black NBA coach), and white Celtics owner Walter A. Brown, who gave him a high $24,000 rookie contract, just $1,000 shy of the top earning veteran Bob Cousy.[49]

Bill Russell wasn’t just a racist, he was a moron.

Will Justice Ever be Meted Out to the Carr Brothers? A Wichita Horror Update

  By David in TN and Nicholas Stix

Twelve days ago, the Wichita Eagle had an article on the 10th anniversary of what has been called the “Wichita Horror,” or the “Wichita Massacre,” which took place in the early hours of December 15, 2000 in Wichita, Kansas. The article has several links to information that came out during the trial. It is not easy reading.

The victims were Jason Befort, Brad Heyka, Aaron Sander, and Heather Muller. The killers were Reginald and Jonathan Carr. There was one survivor, the girlfriend of Befort, who has been called “H.G.” in media accounts. She provided critical testimony.

    The Wichita Horror murder house being combed over by police in December, 2000.

 

On December 7, 2000, Andrew Schreiber was carjacked at gunpoint and forced to withdraw money from ATMs before being released unharmed. The tires of his car were shot.

On December 11, 2000, Ann Walenta was critically shot by the same suspects. She died of her wounds on January 2, 2001.

Bullets would tie those crimes to the same gun used to kill the four others.

The case finally comes before the Kansas Supreme Court next month. This court has overturned every death sentence since the state reinstated capital punishment in 1994.

No one has been executed in Kansas since 1965. The last were the two killers of the Clutter family in 1959, the subject of Truman Capote’s In Cold Blood.

   
Racist rapist-murderers Jonathan and Reginald Carr.

 

The Carrs’ appellate lawyers are arguing that the brothers should have been tried separately instead of together and that the brother who didn’t do the shooting shouldn’t face death. They claim that the testimony of the surviving woman was that the shots came one after another, indicating only one shooter. Jonathan Carr, his lawyer argues, “watched his brother kill the four victims,” according to the briefs.

The judge in the Wichita trial rejected the defense request for a jury from outside Wichita. This will likely be in the appeal.

    Ballistics consultant Richard Ernest testifying at the Carrs' trial.

 

Judge Baumgartner, who presided over the Knoxville Horror trials, severed the case into separate trials for each suspect. This did remove a major appellate issue, along with having juries outside Knoxville for three trials.

Will the Kansas Supreme Court overturn one of the sentences? Or both of them?

Adding a touch of the surreal to the Carrs’ crimes, the Wichita Community Foundation (WCF) has instituted “The Forget Me Not Scholarship Fund,” ostensibly to remember Jason Befort, Brad Heyka, Aaron Sander and Heather Muller. The entire text of the WCF’s description of the fund follows below.

The Forget Me Not Scholarship Fund (Online applications accepted, statewide focus)

***LETTER OF RECOMMENDATION NEEDED TO BE CONSIDERED***

The Forget Me Not Scholarship Fund was created in 2002 for the purpose of enabling young men and women in the State of Kansas to enroll in an accredited college, university, seminary, junior college or vocational technical college in the United States. Two scholarships are awarded annually: (1) to a high school senior graduating from an accredited high school in the State of Kansas, and (2) to a high school senior graduating from high schools in Cimarron, Dodge City, Pratt, Bishop Carroll (Wichita) and Kapaun/Mount Carmel (Wichita).

In September 2001, over 2,000 people participated in a commemorative race honoring the lives of Jason Befort, Heather Muller, Bradley Heyka and Aaron Sander, who died tragically on Dec. 15, 2000. The funds raised through this race form the basis of these continuing scholarship awards.

In his 26 years of life, Jason Befort gave it all he had. His determination was admirable and his love was genuine. He worked hard, he played hard and was intense in all aspects of his life. Jason was never without a smile or hello.

Competitive in sports, he was a perfectionist in every way. His loves included his family, his friends, the Cubs, the K-State Wildcats and life. They say you have to love yourself to pass it on. Jason did both.

Brad Heyka had a sincere love for life including his family and friends. His passion for life was catching and he enjoyed bringing people together and bringing out the best in them. Through this quiet leadership role he had attracted many new friendships in an ever-growing circle. His sense of humor should not be forgotten - it was contagious. His quick wit instantly brought a smile to your face. His passions included golf, KSU sports, competition, fairness, the desire to excel and concern for others.

Heather Muller was filled with a love for God, a love for life, and a love for children- especially her “teenies” with special needs. She had a rare talent for singing that she shared with all. Her prayer-filled life was a life of service to others of all ages and backgrounds. Heather impacted hundreds of people throughout her life and will continue to do so.

Aaron Sander graduated from high school in Cimarron, where his body now rests, before going to Wichita to earn a degree in finance from WSU. He spent the following six years working in the field of finance before taking the last six months of his life to discern a vocation in the priesthood. Aaron was a kind, gentle man, full of love and peace. He had a special charm that attracted many because he genuinely cared for those he met. He had a passion to learn and find his purpose in life, because he knew it was to serve God’s people.

Click here to apply online. Please mail a signed “hard copy” of your application, together with required attachments to the Foundation office at the address listed in the front of the Scholarship section.

Award notices will be posted on our website no later than May 15th.

“…who died tragically on Dec. 15, 2000.” A reader who didn’t know the real story would probably think that the four unfortunate young people had died in a car crash or a fire.

Clearly, the folks at WCF want everyone to forget how Jason Befort, Brad Heyka, Aaron Sander and Heather Muller died, i.e., to forget why “The Forget Me Not Scholarship Fund” exists.

The Catholic school where Heather Muller was a pre-K teacher, St. Thomas Aquinas, has instituted the “Heather Muller Love of Faith Award,” but likewise failed to explain the circumstances that inspired the award.

And while Wikipedia, or as I call it, The Pretend Encyclopedia, has an entry on the Carr brothers' crimes, censors have vigilantly deleted pictures of the respective victims and perpetrators, whenever an editor has posted them. One censor made the following complaint on the entry's talk page:

Black Profiling on this page the first thing you see when you come to this page is two BLACK men. this is misleading because it makes people think that ALL blacks commit massacres. pleas fix the page with a better picture that doesnt make people thing black people commit massacres.—Preceding unsigned comment added by 64.24.236.113 (talk • contribs)
And the misconduct of the Kansas Supreme Court clearly has nothing to do with the Kansas State Constitution, and everything to do with the personal political prejudices and contempt for the law of the people who have dominated that judicial body. Peter Brimelow’s call for impeaching outlaw judges is particularly germane here.

The classic exposé on the Carr brothers’ crimes is Stephen Webster’s American Renaissance article, “The Wichita Massacre: The crime — and motive — the media ignored.” Of related interest is Richard Poe’s Front Page Magazine article, “The ‘Death Wish’ Question.”
