I heard an interview with a couple of Democrats who said they were going to go to the speech because they weren't going to allow the Republicans to drive a wedge as intended.Your pal, Fred |

I would like to know why, of the various Democrats who did and didn't go, that particularly group was prominent.It would be understandable to feel a racial solidarity with the President, though that's not a great reason to shun an important speech on an important issue that other members of their party attended. And going back in history, it could be evidence that the historic alliance between Jews and Blacks on Civil Rights is deader than seemed apparent. |

And counterproductive because they hoped that being "out of town" would support the President, embarrass the GOP and delegitimatize the speech, but instead it split the Democrats.And sometimes you can't use the "I would have attended but it was my turn to walk the dog at home" excuse. |

"And going back in history, it could be evidence that the historic alliance between Jews and Blacks on Civil Rights is deader than seemed apparent."The "historic alliance" was always one-sided. Jews supported blacks on civil rights issues; some even gave their lives doing so. But blacks have never supported Jews on anything - in fact, some of the biggest Jew-haters have been black. |

NY Teacher's Strike of 1968Short excerpt: "The New York City teachers' strike of 1968 was a months-long confrontation between the new community-controlled school board in the largely black Ocean Hill–Brownsville neighborhoods of Brooklyn, and New York City’s United Federation of Teachers. The strike dragged on from May 1968 to November 1968, shutting down the public schools for a total of 36 days and increasing racial tensions between Blacks and Jews. "Thousands of New York City teachers went on strike in 1968 when the school board of the neighborhood, which is now two separate neighborhoods, abruptly dismissed a set of teachers and administrators. The newly created school district, in a mostly black neighborhood, was an experiment in community control over schools—the dismissed workers were almost all white and Jewish." |

But blacks have never supported Jews on anything - in fact, some of the biggest Jew-haters have been black.To a certain extent, a lot of black people aren't aware of Jewish support for civil rights, but the big issue that Jews are still seen as "rich white people" to a sizable chunk of black people. Just take some of the anti-Semitic memes floating around New York, and amplify them considerably, and you can get how some black people feel about Jews. |

They were James Earl Chaney from Meridian, Mississippi, and Andrew Goodman and Michael "Mickey" Schwerner from New York City, who were abducted, shot at close range and killed by members of the local White Knights of the Ku Klux Klan, the Neshoba County Sheriff's Office, and the Philadelphia Police Department of that city in Mississippi. The three young men had been working on the "Freedom Summer" campaign, attempting to prepare and register African Americans to vote after they had been disenfranchised since 1890.The disappearance and feared murders of these activists sparked national outrage and a massive federal investigation. The Federal Bureau of Investigation referred to this investigation as "Mississippi Burning" (MIBURN). They found the bodies of the three workers 44 days after they disappeared; they were buried in an earthen dam near the murder site. After the state government refused to prosecute, the federal government initially charged 18 individuals with civil rights violations. Seven were convicted and received relatively minor sentences for their actions. Outrage over the activists' murders helped gain passage of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and the Voting Rights Act of 1965.[citation needed] |
