Call To Action: Help Stop David Duke Klan Member Hate Rally Against Undocumented Workers
So the organizers of an Ohio Statehouse rally attacking undocumented workers is being sponsored by a white supremacist hate group. The name of the organization, Americans for America, should have tipped us off that they were fascists. Much like in the 50s, when authoritarians terrorized believers in the First Amendment by creating the House Un-American Activities Committee in the US Congress.
The usual suspects are involved. The organizer is one of David Duke’s boys. You remember Duke’s grand dream of merging the Klan and Nazis into one big white supremacist network. Every election year the right-wing storm troops come out of their bunker to whip up race, gender, sexual orientation, ethnic and cultural hatreds. It’s their job. By promoting wedge issues that divide the population along falsely created identity lines, they can get the vast majority of people who work for a wage or a salary to hate the targeted group that changes from year to year.
In 2004, it was gays and gay marriage.In 2006, it’s undocumented immigrantworkers. In 2008, it’ll be gay adoption, or left-handed Albanians, or Islamic people, or whatever causes people to hate and fear each other. In the meantime, the wealthiest 1% of the population which controls more than 95% of the wealth continues to rule through its complete domination of the Republican Party and its long-term lease of the New Democrats.
I urge all immigrants, sons and daughters of immigrants, grandsons and granddaughters of immigrants . . . or simply all Americans – since we’re all immigrants except for the Native American – to come out a demonstrate this Friday against these hate mongerers. Documented and undocumented workers should stand and fight for a North American living wage for all people, universal health care and a North American Parliament that allows the elected representatives of the people to control the trade issues, not the unelected cronies of the corporate elite.
Why protest someone who wants to make money? Isn’t that what the republicans honor?
It was a little amusing last night on PBS news hour when the business representative said it was the governments job to keep illegals out of the country.
I thought this was the age of ownership/entrepreneur society? The less government society? 😛
The distraction factor holds great weight for those who do not stay focused.
This is the theme of one of Liberal talk show host Ed Schultz’ commercial on the local AirAmerica Station.
Dr. Bob has lost his local radio forum on WVKO due to the station’s closure. We miss you Bob and hope you will find fresh air time soon. Maybe if we all petition Air America they will give you some air time there?
