Many White people are shocked, shocked I say, to learn that black folk don’t seem to celebrate Independence Day like White people do. Sure they will take the day off (at least those that bother working) they will grill out, get drunk, shoot each other, etc. but the holiday and what it represents? They don’t seem interested in that, especially in more recent times.
You can’t really fault them. Independence Day celebrates the series of events that led to Americans declaring their independence, then fighting the British to win that independence and of course followed that by the creation of a new form of government, first with the short lived Articles of Confederation before being replaced in 1789 by the U.S. Constitution which at least in theory has been the governing framework for the United States ever since.
While there were hundreds of thousands of Africans living in the United States in 1776, the vast majority (95%) chattel slaves with a much smaller population of freed slaves, they were merely observers of the Revolution. Even the famed Crispus Attucks was a sort of mulatto, the son of an African man and a perhaps unwilling Indian mother.
When the words of the Declaration were penned none of the men who signed it would have considered blacks equal to Whites. Those words weren’t written for them and the war wasn’t fought for them. It was White men who fought but more important even than that, it was White men who possessed the vision of a freer, more just society.
It isn’t surprising that blacks never formed a free nation like the U.S., nor were they able to maintain one when it was handed to them in Liberia. For that matter neither did any other racial group. Ideas like protecting the rights of individuals by constraining the government are really the exclusive domain of Whites. These words were not a throwaway line….
…secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity…
…rather they were a bold statement of who was declaring independence and who they were making this declaration on behalf of, and it was not every person who somehow managed to make it to these shores. The Declaration wasn’t written for the savage Indian tribes already inhabiting North America, nor for the slaves brought here, nor for the descendants of the Aztecs and Mayans south of the Rio Grande or Chinamen or Arabs.
They were written by and for Whites and Whites only. If we have learned anything in 250 years it is that no matter how much we try, how much we spend, how much we wish it were otherwise, America is a White nation and as America ceases to be peopled by Whites it also ceases to be America.
If blacks who have been here for hundreds of years, been “free” for 150 years and had decades of money and preferential treatment thrown at them still cannot “assimilate”, why would anyone assume that any other racial group showing up here can even begin to understand what America is, much less become recognizable in any sense as American?
Independence Day is our day and blacks, mestizos, pajeets, etc. shouldn’t celebrate it because it wasn’t accomplished by them and it was never meant for them.
So Happy Independence Day to my White brethren. To the rest of you?
Get the hell out of my country.
