According to reports today, Biden is delaying arms shipments to Israel to put political pressure on Israel for the same objective as the pro-Hamas college riots. Biden also pressured Israel to reopen a border crossing from Gaza to Egypt, and then Israel knuckled under to Biden's demand, Hamas fired rockets at the Israeli soldiers at that border post, killing three of them.

In his mad rush after the Muslim vote, it looks like Biden is throwing away the Jewish vote. Playing politics for the Hamas terrorists is likely to bite Biden in the ass on election day.

Not only is Harriet Beecher Stowe a white woman, but her book is a novel, a work of fiction that was written with a political agenda.

If you want to read an anti-slavery factual perspective from an eyewitness (which Stowe was not), a far better source is the chapter on slavery in Charles Dickens book on his travels in the US. Although a renowned novelist himself, that book of Dickens is non-faction based on his personal observations, and he highly critizes both slavery and slave owners.

It is also interesting that during the War Between the States, Dickens never bought the north's narrative about fighting to abolish slavery, which claim he described as "specious humbug designed to conceal the north's desire for economic control of the wouthern states."

As usual, you miss the point.
Inserting yourself in a conversation without following the context is what you do best.

HBS is not a black author but wrote a very good book on the subject at hand.

The two tier justice system is not an "excuse". It is a mortal danger to our democratic basis of our Constitutinal republic. Having practiced criminal law myself for decades, it appalls me to watch the shameful abuse of our justice system for political purposes.

So, is BBB reneging on the racist comment recommending people read books with non-white authors? His position on that seems muddled. It's disappointing to know people actually contemplate like that on matters of race. It is no wonder we are experiencing cultural plundering and purging from the left in the 21st century.

Little Bobbie confuses ideology with race, but I guess that is common with a woke racist. Bizarrely, one of the two "black" authors he cites was actually a white woman.

Even more strange, those suggestions come from his assertion that Biritish and American viewpoints on the Revolutionary War are substantially different. Did either of those books have anything to do with that or even mention the Revoluitionary War? Bobbie is just off on one of his racial tangents again.

No, you are exaggerating to justify your own beliefs.
JB could cure cancer and you would find fault.

How about:
Harriet Beecher Stowe - Uncle Toms Cabin

Booker T Washington: - Up from Slavery.
Not a bad place to start.

I see where Senator Marco Rubio wants to cancel the student visas of all of the foreign students who have participated in the pro-Hamas encampments. That is a great idea. Send these new Hitler Youth back where they came from.

Top universities is the country, or 2 internet Rockies in BC. Hmmm
