Ex-football star Herschel Walker's woes hurt Republican chance of taking U.S. Senate (554 hits)


Ex-football star Herschel Walker's woes hurt Republican chance of taking U.S. Senate
By David Morgan -

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Republican hopes of taking control of the U.S. Senate in November could hinge on former football star Herschel Walker, a first-time candidate endorsed by Donald Trump, whose campaign appears to be lagging behind other Republicans in Georgia.

A sports legend, the 60-year-old Walker secured the Republican nomination to run for the Senate for the state in May, seeing off five contenders. Republicans hoped his popularity and name recognition would translate into victory in what is likely to be a close race.

But he has been trailing Democratic Senator Raphael Warnock in most opinion polls, his campaign rocked by repeated policy gaffes and a string of controversies about his past, including allegations of domestic violence.

Walker is one of a handful of Trump-endorsed first-time Republican Senate candidates, also including TV personality Mehmet Oz in Pennsylvania and author J.D. Vance in Ohio, who even senior Republicans say are weighing on the party's changes of recapturing Senate control.

What is his platform?

Herschel Walker will not debate Democratic Senator Raphael Warnock because he has been taken out of the spotlight by his handlers because they don't want to let the public see the difference, side by side. I don't think Herschel Walker, a first-time candidate endorsed by Donald Trump, can stand the test of leadership in Georgia.

Segregation, not slavery, was the new evil now that the slavery days had passed. The time was near, one anonymous letter to the Defender contended, "when the Black man must wipe off his humble submissive ‘Uncle Tom' smile: then, henceforth stand up and demand justice." The Uncle Tom of the slavery past had been too subservient to whites, but the rising generation of New Negroes would more aggressively assert its rights.
When Garvey's black nationalists announced Uncle Tom's death in their parade posters, they certainly spoke too soon. More than 150 years after his birth in Stowe's novel, Uncle Tom is still alive and well in America, popping up everywhere, from politics to sports to rap music. President Obama and RNC Chairman Michael Steele have both been called Uncle Toms, so have Tiger Woods, T-Pain, and Colin Powell--not to mention the usual suspects like Clarence Thomas and Condoleezza Rice. Ultimately, the Uncle Tom figure indicates an intense racial mistrust and a belief that the interests of blacks and of whites in America are deeply different. As long as racial inequalities in this country persist, Uncle Tom is likely to stick around for a long time yet.

What religion are you, MUSLIM whose history of Slavery must be forgotten by you Mr. Robert Powell? The MUSLIM slave trade was the most longest, inhuman, the most cruel and Bowlberwick treatment of The African people known to man's history.

Mr. Robert Robert, this is the slavery we must forget, Black on Black Slavery. The Arab Muslim slave trade also known as the trans-Saharan trade or Eastern slave trade is billed as the longest, having happened for more than 1300 years while taking millions of Africans away from their continent to work in foreign land in the most inhumane conditions.

Mr. Robert Powell, While official figures on the exact number of slaves captured from Africa in the Trans Sahara trade are contested, most scholars put the estimate at about nine million.

This is black on black slavery is what we as a people must not forget. Now the only reason why you talk that ignorant of the white man keeping the black man down is only because we have not been taught our relationship with the Arab World.

Mr. Robert Powell, if you were supposed that beacon to the Islamic world, then I know I am looking in the wrong place.

The history of slavery in the Muslim world began with institutions inherited from pre-Islamic Arabia;[1] and the practice of keeping slaves subsequently developed in radically different ways, depending on social-political factors such as the Arab slave trade. Any non-Muslim could be enslaved.[2] Throughout Islamic history, slaves served in various social and economic roles, from powerful emirs to harshly treated manual laborers. Early on in Muslim history slaves provided plantation labor similar to that in the early-modern Americas, but this practice was abandoned after harsh treatment led to destructive slave revolts,[3] the most notable being the Zanj Rebellion of 869–883.[4] Slaves were widely employed in irrigation, mining, and animal husbandry, but most commonly as soldiers, guards, domestic workers,[3] concubines (s*x slaves).[5] Many rulers relied on military slaves (often in huge standing armies) and on slaves in administration - to such a degree that the slaves could sometimes seize power. Among black slaves, there were roughly two females to every one male.[3] Two rough estimates by scholars of the numbers of just one group - black slaves held over twelve centuries in the Muslim world - are 11.5 million[6] and 14 million,[7][8] while other estimates indicate a number between 12 and 15 million African slaves prior to the 20th century.[9]
Islam encouraged the manumission of Muslim slaves as a way of expiating sins.[10] Many early converts to Islam, such as Bilal, were former slaves.[11][12][13][14] In theory, slavery in Islamic law does not have a racial or color basis, although this has not always been the case in practice.[15] In 1990 the Cairo Declaration on Human Rights in Islam declared that "no one has the right to enslave" another human being.[16] Many slaves were imported from outside the Muslim world.[17]
The Arab slave trade was most active in West Asia, North Africa, and Southeast Africa. The Ottoman slave trade exploited the human resources of eastern and central Europe and the Caucasus; the Barbary Coast slave traders raided the Mediterranean coasts of Europe and as far afield as the British Isles and Iceland. In the early 20th century (post-World War I), authorities gradually outlawed and suppressed slavery in Muslim lands, largely due to pressure exerted by Western nations such as Britain and France.[18] Slavery in the Ottoman Empire was abolished in 1924 when the new Turkish Constitution disbanded the Imperial Harem and made the last concubines and eunuchs free citizens of the newly proclaimed republic.[19] Slavery in Iran was abolished in 1929. Mauritania became the last state to abolish slavery - in 1905, 1981, and again in August 2007. Oman abolished slavery in 1970, and Saudi Arabia and Yemen abolished slavery in 1962 under pressure from Britain.[20] However, slavery claiming the sanction of Islam is documented at present in the predominantly Islamic countries of the Sahel,[21][22] and is also practiced by ISIS and Boko Haram. It is also practiced in countries like Libya and Mauritania - despite being outlawed.[citation needed]

Christianity Is Poisonous to the African American Community.

Staff - 1h ago

(ThyBlackMan.com)

I’m going to start off with a disclaimer by informing you that you will read some disturbing and traumatic events that happened

to our ancestors.

I’d like to begin with a narrative about how Africans in America adopted Christianity.

There is no doubt that Christianity is our oppressors religion, given the fact that Christians pray to a white god.

There is also no doubt that we never learn about Christianity when discussing slavery.

Our ancestors were tied to a pole, they called back then a whipping post. While tied to that whipping post,

white Christians from time to time, will chain our brothas and sistahs to a whipping post and beat them over and over,

until they confessed and hand over their love, soul, and faith to Jesus Christ;

keep in mind, most Africans did not know English and so they had to be coached and pressured by a whip to say the very words

“I believe in Jesus Christ“,

in order not to die or suffer from any more pain...etc. etc..etc...
