STAND has declared September as Celebrate American History Month.
Philosopher George Santayana is quoted as saying, “Those that do not learn from history are doomed to repeat it.” His original saying was probably more accurately, “Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it.”
Whatever the reading of it, the truth is still there: If we neglect the truth of what has happened in the past, inevitably, we will repeat the lies. This is a description of where we are as the Left and the Democrat Party has completely turned history upside down or inside out.
From telling us that the American nation began in 1619 when the first African slaves arrived at Jamestown, to telling us that slavery is embedded in the US Constitution and therefore, the entire nation is systemically racist. Then they say that it is the Republican Party that supports slavery. Remember VP Biden in 2012: “They’re going to put y’all back in chains”?
The Left accuses Republicans of lynching blacks and supporting Jim Crow laws. Again, Joe Biden, asserting that the Georgia election laws were “Jim Crow 2.0.” They scream “Racism!” when someone on the Right questions the huge amounts of money that the government spends on welfare or suggests that able-bodied people should get a job.
They either purposefully or ignorantly “cannot remember the past.” It was a Republican president who ended slavery in America. It was a Republican president who created the U.S. Department of Justice and Civil Rights Enforcement. It was a Republican president who hosted Booker T. Washington, a black man, at the White House.
They also conveniently forget that it was southern Democrats who started the Ku Klux Klan. It was a Democrat president who segregated the Federal Government and hosted a showing of “The Birth of a Nation,” a racist film that promoted the Confederacy and the KKK.
I could go on and on. Although LBJ gets the credit for the Civil Rights Act of 1964, it was the Republicans in Congress who voted overwhelmingly to pass it. Even though Johnson’s public statements promoting the “Great Society” were to eliminate racial inequality and bring an end to poverty, privately he was more to the point. He allegedly stated: “I’ll have those n*****s voting Democrat for the next 200 years.”
