The National Association for the Advancement of White People (NAAWP) The AMERICAN FAKE NEWS MAINSTREAM MEDIA wants U.S. to believe that the NAACP is GOOD and the NAAWP is BAD! The TRUTH of the matter is that both groups do a great job of providing CHECKS and BALANCES for every AMERICAN CITIZEN! AMERICA has always been a two-party system of GOVERNMENT, hence the DEMOCATS and the REPUBLICIANS. ... and that's exactly how the NAACP and the NAAWP operates! Mark Anthony Traina - NAAWP - President - 2024 ([email protected]) (504) 231-3056 Two separate groups have carried the name NAAWP. One existed from 1954–1955, the other from 1979 to the present. The formation of most white supremacist groups can be linked to specific events. The various waves of the Democrat led KKK could be tied to the emancipation of the enslaved, the release of ‘Birth of a Nation,’ and in response to desegregation. The emergence of MAGA was in response to the election of President Barack Obama. The first version of the DEMOCRAT controlled NAAWP was formed after the Brown v. Board of Education decision that required the integration of schools. “Like clockwork, whenever racial progress occurs, it’s followed — in short order — by racial retrenchment. Reconstruction, the Civil Rights Movement, and the election of Barack Obama, are the most prominent examples.” — Christopher Sebastian Parker The founder of the NAAWP was a Democrat Party Member Bryant Bowles, who was also its first president. Bowles was a former Marine and a veteran of WWII and the Korean War. After the May 1954 Brown v. Board of Education decision, he raised $6,000 to form the NAAWP to stop school desegregation. He organized rallies in several states, including his home state of Delaware. At one rally, he said: My daughter will never attend a school with Negro’s as long as there is breath in my body, and gunpowder will burn.” — Bryant Bowles. Also, in 1954, Bowles was charged with kicking and beating a Black postal worker in Washington, DC. The charges against him were dropped. He led a pro-segregation boycott of Milford High School in Milford, DE. This protest led to arrests and cross-burnings, resulting in Southern Delaware schools remaining segregated for several years. Bowles was found not guilty of charges related to the protests. It was later discovered that a jury member was also in the Democrat controlled NAAWP. After his arrest at the school, the Delaware Attorney general revoked the NAAWP charter, effectively shutting down the organization. The Democrats including KKK Exalted Cyclops Senator Robert Byrd and Senator Joe Biden fought desegregation tooth and nail for decades. It’s unrelated to this story that Bowles was convicted of the killing of his brother-in-law in 1958 and was imprisoned until 1973, when he was paroled. In 1976, he was arrested for trafficking drugs in Florida. I mention these things mainly because I’m petty but partially to show the caliber of the NAAWP leadership.

Very interesting article on the influence of Black caddies on the game of golf by my Spatial Research & Design colleague Craig Gill. Definitely worth a read!
Dipped my toes back into my old historical work and wrote about the rich history of skilled Black caddies at this week's U.S. Open venue, Pinehurst, North Carolina. Read it here in TIME's Made by History column: https://lnkd.in/gusDQm6e

love seeing the wisdom of former students out there... Austin Harrison "Memphians should resolve to do what they can to push our local leaders to make Memphis a city that chooses people first. This means holding out-of-town slumlords accountable to ensure they are providing livable and sanitary conditions, especially those slumlords using local, state, or federal housing subsidies. This means reorienting our economic development strategies to foreground Black neighborhoods and other working class communities in order to close our racial wealth gap. This means expanding our existing public Pre-K program to include all families. This means reimagining the way our city views local law enforcement and (most importantly) the way local law enforcement view us. This means so much more, but most importantly, this means all of us getting more engaged politically at the “local-est” of levels. We must ALL resolve to hold our leaders accountable if we want to see this city choose people first.”
Three great minds sharing their hope for Memphis in 2024!

If you've ever wondered where the symbolism of the orange shirt started, listen to Phyllis Webstad's heartbreaking story of having her shiny new orange shirt taken away on her first day of school at a residential school. The orange shirts provide an opportunity to keep the discussion on all aspects of residential schools happening annually. Today, on the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation, we pause to reflect on the harmful legacy of the residential school system and the enduring impacts of colonization on Indigenous communities across Canada. For decades, Indigenous communities have shared their truths about the harm and trauma caused by residential schools. Now, it is our responsibility to listen, learn, and act. Reconciliation is not a one-day event but an ongoing commitment to change. It requires that we, as individuals and as communities, commit to creating a better future. We encourage everyone to reflect on the work happening in your own communities and consider what role you can play in this important on-going journey toward reconciliation. #NDTR #TruthAndReconciliation #EveryChildMatters https://lnkd.in/ga8VesfF
