Attention 1blackman1: Don't Travel to Florida! NAACP Has Issued a Travel Advisory for Blacks in Florida. (Video)

I wouldn't want to see anything happen to Mr. Blackman. I honestly care about his safety. There might be a white supremacist, racist, MAGA patriot, or rope and bleach toting Boogieman lurking in the shadows. We don't need another Jussie Smollet situation. This message is a public service announcement from Cheap Charlie. Safety first!

... I was about to get-onto YOU for your thread-title here, mate.
Seeing-as 1blackman1 is a bludger-mate of mine.

But fer crikey sake - it surely seem that EVERYTHING in Florida
is being made into a racial issue these days. ...

What Florida Legislation are they talking about that targets Black people?

Good question. The reporter didn't specify. Nor Ms. Ellison.

agree with several posters that the report is very vague in what this naacp spokeswoman was referring to and the reporters did a poor job presenting the topic. that said, one comment they aired had to do with history. this appears to be a reference to DeSantis over a AP black history course he considered "woke" for lack of a better term. DeSantis forced the high school level course to be re-written as it should be.



Jesse Watters has discussed this course several times and on one of his shows stated that he'd reviewed the actual course as originally written and said that the first 3/4ths of it was excellent and worthy of an AP high school course but the last part goes off the rails with all sorts of false revisionist history and white shaming while of course ignoring the historical facts that black tribal wars provided the bulk of all blacks sold as slaves and even in the US during that era there were blacks who owned other blacks as slaves. not many but there were some. it was more prevalent in other countries like Haiti where most blacks weren't slaves by default. but don't tell the woke crt mob this! they'll melt down and call it "racist hate speech"!



for those who think CRT isn't being taught, it is. that's fact and it's bullshit nonsense racism to the highest degree.

So the Legislation Florida passed was about prohibiting teaching CRT in Elementary Schools. All it really does is teach kids to be suspicious of another, based on their race. I think Florida has the right idea. Kids are pure at heart they don't think about race, racism is learned behavior taught by parents and teachers.

Florida is a bullshit state, sane people avoid it

Chicago, Chicago, that toddlin' town
Chicago, Chicago, I'll show you around
(You'll stay around)
Bet your bottom dollar you'll lose the blues in Chicago
Chicago
The folks who visit all wanna settle down
(All wanna settle, in my hometown)

On State Street, that great street, I just wanna say
They do things they don't do on Broadway
You'll have the time, the time of your life
Bring all your friends, all your kids and your wife to Chicago
Chicago, my hometown
(Hey, now baby)

(Ooh baby) You'll have the time, the time of your life
Bring all your friends, all your kids and your wife to Chicago
Chicago my hometown
Oh, to Chicago, Chicago my hometown
(yeah)
