Cynthia McKinney on the Floor of the House Sept 7, 2005:
“As I saw the African Americans, mostly African Americans- families ripped apart, I could only think about slavery- families ripped apart. Herded into what looked like concentration camps. And so I was reminded of a Miami Herald article written on July 5th, the day after Freedom Day, 1987. The title of the article was Reagan Aides and the Secret Government. And here is a quote from that article:
“A copy of the memo was obtained by The Herald. The scenario outlined in the Brinkerhart(sp?) memo resembles somewhat a paper Jufrida(sp?) had written in 1978 at the Army War College in Carlyle(!), Pennsylvania in which he advocated martial law in case of a national uprising by black militants.”
in which he advocated martial law in case of a national uprising by black militants
“The paper also advocated the roundup and transfer to quote “assembly centers” or “relocation camps” of at least 21 million American negroes. Now I didn’t write that- the US gov’t wrote that. They would round up 21 million negroes because they were afraid of freeing black people…. I will just conclude by saying that on the United States State Department website is a How to identify misinformation. Does the story fit the pattern of a conspiracy theory?” [cut off]
Speaker: “The Chair has an obligation remind the members, particularly the young lady from Georgia that it’s out of order to ascribe unworthy motives to the President and the gentlelady’s time has expired.”
So what she’s saying is that We The People, of ALL COLORS must rise up together. This isn’t a black vs white thing, it’s an us vs them thing.
