Is Barack Obama's Church Racist?From the Trinity United Church of Christ web site:

Trinity United Church of Christ adopted the Black Value System written by the Manford Byrd Recognition Committee chaired by Vallmer Jordan in 1981. We believe in the following 12 precepts and covenantal statements. These Black Ethics must be taught and exemplified in homes, churches, nurseries and schools, wherever Blacks are gathered. They must reflect on the following concepts:

Commitment to God
Commitment to the Black Community
Commitment to the Black Family
Dedication to the Pursuit of Education
Dedication to the Pursuit of Excellence
Adherence to the Black Work Ethic
Commitment to Self-Discipline and Self-Respect
Disavowal of the Pursuit of "Middleclassness"
Pledge to make the fruits of all developing and acquired skills available to the Black Community
Pledge to Allocate Regularly, a Portion of Personal Resources for Strengthening and Supporting Black Institutions
Pledge allegiance to all Black leadership who espouse and embrace the Black Value System
Personal commitment to embracement of the Black Value System.
Do you think that if Mitt Romney's local church talked about the White Community, White Institutions, and the White Value System that it would have gotten more attention from the Liberal Media than this has? (via Marquette Warrior)

You should have heard the stupidity that was said by Paula Zahnidiot and crew tonight about this.
One guy said white was not a race but black was (apparently Irish and Finnish are two different races but Moroccan and Botswanan are identical peoples )

I am so SICK of this... if a manifesto like this with the word white instead of black got out attached to a fraternity, church or organization... particularly a TAX EXEMPT one, OMG!

It's funny, speaking of frats, I'd like to see a frat like the Omegas, an all black frat, that is predominantly white decide to say that they are going to cater only to whites. Not just Irish, Welsh and Scotts... just whites.
See how it goes over.
The black frats (I was a bouncer a couple of times for FAMU parties) do not just accept Nigerians or Ugandans. It would be the same thing.
As always.
Racism is racism is racism.
