The Black Conservative Movement |
Black Conservatives in America
The African American conservative political movement seeks to emphasize patriotism, independence, self-help, free enterprise, and strong cultural conservatism within the context of Black religion. In the United States, it is mostly associated with the Republican party and recently very loosely aligned with the highly vocal Tea Party. The National Press Club in Washington DC was the scene of an historic event, August 4, 2010. For the first time in U.S. history, black conservative leaders from across America gathered for a national press conference. According to the web site, their purpose was three fold. One, to rebuke the NAACP’s resolution accusing the tea parties of being racist. Two, to introduce themselves to America. Three, to dispel the myth that black conservatives are as rare as Bigfoot sightings. |

The African Presence in Europe is more than myth. Blacks played a significant role in the rise of the "First World".

The terrible earthquake that recently struck Haiti is merely one of many disaster that the small, predominantly black island nation has endured. Today, two very different countries tenuously co-exist on the Caribbean island of Hispaniola. Historically, the island has experienced perhaps more than its fair share of hardship mingled with hidden success stories. And, despite the human misery that a natural disaster can cause, a more grievous wound can occur from the greed and malicious intrusions of imperialistic conquerors or more recently drug traffickers and international corporations seeking to boost profits. |
