Ben Tillman set Blacks back 60 years.


Jul 17, 2015, 7:41 PM

Dude single-handedly began Jim Crow in South Carolina, and openly pushed blacks into a poverty- stricken corner. If you think this is not a great sin, you need to have your head and heart examined.

The point is , if you didn't get the analogy ...is that making poor decisions is case by case .
Tillman made his stand , he took an elitist , hateful and savage line and stuck with it throughout his life .
His building on Clemson's campus was named during the 1940's largely in part because the school wanted the money from his family , and keeping his name on an aging structure now would only create more serious problems down the highway .
Why not remove the name , returning it to the Old Main building as it was before , and let history be written that Clemson University is a compassionate and forward moving school .
Let the Coots do the dumb stuff in this state .

Re: i don't visit many boards, but it's hard for me to believe


Jul 17, 2015, 8:54 PM

Your original thought was to state that Africans selling Africans to the American slave traders makes it the Africans fault .
You blamed The American version of human slave trade on those indigenous peoples that rounded up others and sold them ? Is that it ?
That premise works and all ...until you understand that the indigenous people were threatened with their own shackles , told that their families and their villages would be ised instead , without compliance .
Just saying , open a book once in a while before making arrogant broad brush statements that poignantly make you look foolish .

greatly outnumbering any federal ships.

everyone that touched the trade is responsible for it, i wasn't placing blame solely on one group or another, i was ensuring the genesis got its proper do.

apparently that offends you, which means your problem appears to be your ability to separate things accordingly; it's severely lacking. perhaps you should pick up a book?

Jul 17, 2015, 9:23 PM [ in reply to Re: the africans got paid after they loaded their brethren in ]

Nasty indeed . Estimates of between 10 and 20 million Africans , chiefly from west central coastal regions were brought into South Carolina , stacked like cord wood and the rate of " cargo loss " was set at an acceptable rate of 14-20% . After brief quarantines on Sullivan's Island they were sold to slave owners along the colonial coastline . Children in slavery in South Carolina in particular , died at a rate of 1 for every 3 born into captivity . Adults rarely lived past 50 .


Slavery . Wow.

DSP I didn't type that stuff because I seek your agreement , or your understanding .
It is just so the plain hideous fact is displayed .
I'm not a liberal , nor am I a conservative . What I understand through my experiences is that outside of all of the daily monotony of our jobs , our responsibilities to others and the trusgery of this life ...there is only to love and be loved .
I don't spend a lot of time acting tough and downing others for their beliefs and ideals . That , to me seems like a waste ..
as the years pass by .
Compassion and empathy . Respect and love . Understanding above all else , because once you stagnate on particular ideas and old schisms , you really have begun to die .

the past months here have been a congress of stupidity, wallowing in ancient misdeeds, some full, some half and many untruths.

that people can not separate their emotions from things they have zero accountability for is atrocious and a fools errand of the weak-minded.

i care about yesterday, today, tomorrow and can keep those all in healthy perspective not owing anything to shame, excuses or ridicule because some in the here and now are too intent on blame for the actions of none today.
