— Christopher Columbus statue toppled, set on fire and thrown into lake in Richmond, Va. – AP (DIERSEN: This is a hate crime.)
https://abc7chicago.com/columbus-statue-thrown-into-lake-in-richmond-va/6240352/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: A statue of Christopher Columbus in Richmond was torn down by protesters, set on fire and then thrown into a lake. The figure was toppled less than two hours after protesters gathered in the city’s Byrd Park were chanting for the statue to be taken down, news outlets reported. After the figure was removed from its pedestal around 8:30 p.m. Tuesday by protesters using several ropes, a sign that reads, “Columbus represents genocide” was placed on the spray-painted foundation that once held the statue. It was then set on fire and rolled into a lake in the park, NBC 12 reported. There was no police presence in the park, but a police helicopter was seen circling the area after the city-owned figure was torn down, the Richmond Times-Dispatch reported. The city’s parks department did not immediately respond to a request for comment on the fallen statue from the Associated Press. Earlier during the day, Activist Chelsea Higgs-Wise and other protesters spoke to a crowd gathered at Byrd Park about the struggles of indigenous people and African-Americans in America. “We have to start where it all began,” Higgs-Wise said during her speech. “We have to start with the people who stood first on this land.” The Columbus statue was dedicated in Richmond in December 1927, and had been the first statue of Christopher Columbus erected in the South, the newspaper reported. Its toppling comes amid national protests over the death of George Floyd and several days after a statue of Confederate Gen. Williams Carter Wickham was pulled from its pedestal in Monroe Park by demonstrators who also used ropes to tear it down. Native American advocates have also long pressed states to change Columbus Day to Indigenous Peoples Day over concerns that Columbus spurred centuries of genocide against indigenous populations in the Americas. Vanessa Bolin, a member of the Richmond Indigenous Society, told the crowd she did not come “to hijack” the protests against police brutality, but to “stand in solidarity” with the people. Another speaker, Joseph Rogers, declared the area “Powhatan land,” and talked about how white supremacy and institutionalized racism has impacted both groups.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Even in the opinion section, only approved thought is permitted. We’re in the dawn of a high-tech, bloodless Cultural Revolution; one that relies on intimidation, public shaming, and economic ruin to dictate what words and ideas are permissible in the public square. “Words are violence” has always been an illiberal notion meant to stifle speech and open discourse. Popularized by a generation of coddled and brittle college students, it now guides policy on editorial pages at newspapers such as the Philadelphia Inquirer, the New York Times, and most major news outlets.)

— Mandatory Groupthink: Dare to deviate from leftist orthodoxy and be damned – Patricia McCarthy (DIERSEN: Trump-haters promote BLM. How will the leaders of your municipal district, your municipality, your township, your county, and Illinois respond to BLM demands?)
https://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2020/06/mandatory_groupthink_dare_to_deviate_from_leftist_orthodoxy_and_be_damned.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The stories of people in high office, or any office or job, being fired or forced to resign for past breaches of the prescribed dogma are multiplying by the day. Even the editor of the food and cooking magazine, Bon Appetit, Adam Rapoport, had to resign after his wife posted a seven year-old photo of herself and her husband dressed as Puerto Ricans for a Halloween party, wearing ‘brownface’ makeup. That was it; he was out. A Serbian soccer player, Aleksandar Katai, has been fired because his wife posted something in Serbian that was deemed critical of Black Lives Matter. Stan Wischnowski, 20-year editor at the Philadelphia Inquirer was fired for a headline: Buildings Matter Too! This was considered an offensive mockery of Black Lives Matter. James Bennet, the op-ed editor at the New York Times, was forced to resign after staff complained about his approving of an op-ed by Rep. Tom Cotton supporting the use of our military if needed to quell riots and looting. A majority of Americans agree with the senator but it was a serious transgression at the NYT that has from the moment Trump was elected vowed to dedicate their every published word to his destruction. A woman called radio host Dennis Prager to report that a woman she knew was called on the carpet by her boss for not posting support for BLM on any social media. Her silence was a crime. America has drifted into very dangerous territory. The First Amendment is seriously under attack with the wholesale approval of the Democrat party. The party of JFK is now the party of Antifa, Black Lives Matter and the ignorant moonbattery of AOC and her Muslim gal pals Rashida Tlaib and Ilhan Omar. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi has become something of a joke who has entered Biden’s realm of fast-approaching dementia. Her photo-op stunt of kneeling for nine minutes in honor of George Floyd draped with kente cloth was a ridiculous bit of bad political theater. Kira Davis called it “political blackface.” They did this after excoriating President Trump for walking to St. James Church that had been set on fire by rioters, bible in hand. They called that a photo-op, but it was clearly done to draw attention to the senseless destruction that had occurred. Every corporation, large and small, every restaurant chain, every media outlet and anchor are twisting themselves into pretzels vowing their unctuous servility to what is perhaps just a DNC money-laundering scheme. It appears that contributions to BLM go directly to the DNC. Know that BLM is not what it appears to be. It is a Marxist-Leninist organization but in a way truly antithetical to the values of America that most of us hold dear.)

In a companywide email on Monday that was reviewed by The New York Times, Jim VandeHei, the co-founder and chief executive of Axios, said, “First, let me say we proudly support and encourage you to exercise your rights to free speech, press, and protest.

— The rotten luck of graduating into a recession – Jill Schlesinger (DIERSEN: What year did you graduate from college? I graduated in 1970 from NIU with a bachelor’s degree in management. What negatively impacted your job search? For me, it was my being draft bait. My father had died suddenly in October of 1969. Potential employers did not believe that my financial hardship draft deferment application to support my mother and brother in Crete would be approved. Further, potential employers were under tremendous pressure to hire minorities, females, and veterans. Consequently, I took the only job offer that got — retail sales manager for the Firestone Store in Chicago Heights. The job did not really require a college degree. Constructively, I was the store’s salesman. Advancement opportunities were limited and slow. The store’s manager did not approve of my demographics (draft avoider, German-American, and Protestant). He never would have hired me, but Firestone Stores headquarters forced him to take me.)

http://www.wicz.com/story/42219904/the-partisan-chasm-over-systemic-racism-is-on-full-display
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The throngs of protesters demanding systemic changes in policing are marching directly into one of the deepest chasms between the two political parties. The belief that widespread racism is no longer a problem in American society has become one of the core convictions uniting the modern Republican coalition, especially in the Donald Trump era, polls have found. Several academic studies found the belief that discrimination against minorities (and women) is no longer a problem was a far better predictor of support for Trump in 2016 than economic anxiety. Democrats of all races, by contrast, are much more likely to say that discrimination against African Americans, including in their interactions with police, remains a structural feature of American society. In surveys by the nonpartisan Public Religion Research Institute, Americans who support Trump were far more likely than those who don’t to say that police shootings of black men are only isolated incidents and to claim that discrimination against whites is now as great a problem as bias against minorities. This contrast looms heavily over the partisan reaction to the current eruption of protest. Since George Floyd’s death in Minneapolis last month, a chorus of prominent conservative voices have insisted it is a “lie” to describe racial discrimination as a pervasive problem. And, while some polls conducted amid the upsurge of protest hint that more Republicans may see discrimination as a problem, generally the surveys have documented the persistence of a huge gap between the parties on the issue. That divergence has big implications for both policy and politics. In policy terms, it helps explain why Trump’s Justice Department, while initiating an inquiry into the specific circumstances of Floyd’s death, has effectively shelved efforts under former President Barack Obama to examine systematic bias in city police departments through so-called pattern and practice investigations. Appearing Sunday on CBS’ “Face the Nation,” Attorney General William Barr rejected such an investigation of the Minneapolis Police Department and argued that while individual “bad cops” remain a problem in forces around the country, “I don’t think that the law enforcement system is systemically racist.” Politically, the heightened focus on police behavior and racial inequities more broadly could compel Trump to squeeze out bigger margins and turnout from the white constituencies most skeptical that racism remains a widespread problem, in order to offset what could be a further decline in November among the groups in all races that do consider bias an enduring blight on American life. In that way, this latest crisis could force Trump to further double down on the underlying political bet he is imposing on the GOP: squeezing bigger margins from shrinking groups at the price of alienating groups in society that are growing. Brian Schaffner, a political scientist at Tufts University who has conducted some of the central research on the role of racist and sexist attitudes in the 2016 vote, says that prospect leaves Trump navigating a very thin path. Comparing the election results in 2018 with those in 2016, his research found that House Republican candidates lost more ground among voters who agree that racism and sexism remain problems than they gained among those who do not. “In 2018, Republican House candidates paid a pretty significant penalty for being tied to his racist and sexist views,” Schaffner says. Trump faces the same risk in November, he believes. Partisan opinion gap emerges — and widens American public opinion about race is complex and contradictory, and, particularly among whites, it has not moved in a straight line. But the general pattern is that for decades most Americans, especially whites, concluded — despite evidence to the contrary — that the civil rights revolution of the 1960s defanged racial discrimination and created a situation in which African Americans had equal opportunity with whites. . .Trump’s reelection chances could be affected Schaffner, the political scientist, says there is “a lot to unpack” to understand why many whites, primarily but not entirely in the GOP, reject the idea that discrimination is an ongoing problem.)

Presser (DIERSEN: What do you say to Democrat plant, Libertarian plant, Green plant, and RINO activists, candidates, elected officials, party leaders, major donors, political consultants, campaign managers, etc. who talk and/or act like they are Democrats concerning diversity? They focus on getting rid of Republicans who are Trump supporters, conservative, patriotic, White, male, older, non-poor, gun owners, Protestant, German American, draft avoiders, and/or those whose ancestors have been in America for a long time.)
https://www.newsmax.com/stephenbpresser/maga-deplorables-people/2020/06/05/id/970760/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Democrats claim that Donald Trump seeks to divide America, but it’s the progressives like Hillary Clinton and Joe Biden, who maintain that there are good and bad Americans, and, presumably, that the bad should be ignored or silenced. Hillary bemoaned the “basket of deplorables” supporting Trump, and Biden dismisses “from 10 to 15 percent of the people out there who are just not very good people.” The Democratic Party is now committed to an adversarial ideology of “Us” vs. “Them.” The very core of identity politics is a marking out of groups — Women, African Americans, Hispanics, Native Americans, Gays and Lesbians, Transgenders, and others — groups against which America is alleged to have wrongly discriminated. Their claim is that these groups are entitled to an ameliorating redistribution of resources, to be funded by increasing taxes on the wealthy and privileged — presumably the nefarious beneficiaries of this alleged discrimination.)

(FROM THE PRESS RELEASE: This afternoon, DuPage County State’s Attorney Robert Berlin reiterated his support for peaceful protests in DuPage County but warned that law enforcement throughout the County will continue to be on the lookout for those who would take advantage of the protests to commit crimes. “The First Amendment, which guarantees freedom of speech, press, religion and the people’s right to assemble and petition their government, is sacred to our democracy and for the past two-hundred-twenty-nine-years has protected the basic freedoms and rights of all United States citizens.” Berlin said. “Throughout DuPage County, law enforcement stands together to support and protect the First Amendment. We also stand together in protecting our residents from those who would pervert our right to assemble to commit criminal activity.” Below is a list of those who have been arrested and charged since June 1, 2020, for crimes allegedly committed under the guise of peaceful protesting.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: In Wheaton, Carmin Awadzi came to a Black Lives Matter rally at Adams Park out of fear. Two of her children were going, and she wanted to make sure nothing happened to them. She even told her 16-year-old son to wear his Wheaton Warrenville South High School sweatshirt so people would know he belonged. “That’s our lives every single day here in Wheaton,” she said. “And I’m having to explain that to people — people that we’ve known for a very long time, educated people who are professionals. My husband and I are in the 1% but it still doesn’t matter.” The rally drew a diverse, young-skewing crowd of several hundred who listened to speakers reflect about racial injustice throughout America and close to home.)

— ‘We’re not going to let this happen anymore’ Protesters pack Wheaton park to decry racism – BOB RAKOW (DIERSEN: It would be great if a transcript of everything that was said by the protest speakers would be published.)
https://www.mysuburbanlife.com/2020/06/03/were-not-going-to-let-this-happen-anymore-protesters-pack-wheaton-park-to-decry-racism/ak15fz8/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Three speakers were scheduled for Wednesday’s Black Lives Matter protest in Wheaton’s Adams Park. But 90 minutes after the protest started, more than 20 people had taken the bullhorn, stepped before the crowd of about 1,000 people and offered passionate, emotional and fervent pleas to end racism and police violence against black people. The speakers were while and black, male and female, young and old, but the message was the same: racism in all its forms must end and the battle to stop it once and for all is just beginning. The 1 p.m. protest was planned for Memorial Park, which is fenced off and undergoing improvements, leading participants to move to nearby Adams Park. Protesters, many carrying signs with a wide array of messages including “Black Lives Matter,” “Only Justice Will Bring Peace” and “We Cannot Be Silent Because the Dead Cannot Speak,” formed a large circle in the center of the park and listened to and applauded each speaker, many who initially did not plan to address the crowd. The protest was one of several held Wednesday in DuPage, Cook and Kane counties as people harnessed the opportunity to vent their anger and frustration following the May 25 death of George Floyd, who was killed while in police custody in Minneapolis. “It’s disgusting that we’re begging people to understand that our lives matter, and there are people saying, ‘but this and but that.’ But that’s reality, right? No, because we’re not going to let this happen anymore,” said one speaker, who declined to give her name. “We are not criminals. We are not animals,” she said. “We are humans, we’re beautiful and we are loved,” she continued. She also chastised people who have criticized the phrase Black Lives Matter because they contend it excludes other races. “All lives matter,” she said. “We’re not screaming that only black lives matter. It’s because all lives matter that we are here protesting the ones that are actually targeted. “We’re not here to start a race war, we’re here to end one and finally be at the same level as you. So please, if you’re human, have humanity, open your eyes to what’s been going on in this country because I’m tired of having to explain to you why I’m scared, why I feel little, why l feel hurt.” Jerome Jackson attended the protest with his wife, Julie; son, Lincoln, 6; and daughter, Quinlan, 7. Jackson, a Wheaton resident, said it was critical that his children see the formation of a movement designed to end racism and bigotry. “The importance is for them to not only understand the importance of the message that Black Lives Matters and what it means to the greater good of society, but to our own family knowing that I’m an African American myself and raising two bi-racial children. It’s important for them to understand their roots and culture.” Jackson added that he doesn’t want his children to experience the bigotry he endured as a child. “As someone who grew up primarily in the 80s, I was subjected to bigotry and racism, and I’ve said from the moment they were born that I want them to grow up in a society that doesn’t’ view them for their skin color or tone and just views them as human beings,” he said. He added that the size of the protest was encouraging. “I’m very happy to see as many young people out supporting this cause and just standing up for what is right,” Jackson said. Following the protest, participants marched through downtown Wheaton chanting “Black Lives Matter.” Dan Clinch of Wheaton said he attend the protest because “it was the right thing to do.” “This just can’t go on,” he added. “What happened in Minneapolis, there’s no excuse in the world for it.” Clinch said he expects the movement to continue because Floyd’s death was a tipping point. “You heard the young people today,” he said. “This was very impressive.” Clinch’s daughter, Campbell, a Wheaton North graduate, and a friend of some of the speakers, said she saw numerous racist incidents while attending the high school. “You hear the N-word, you do hear things about white supremacy, you hear people calling African Americans animals. There’s no justification for that,” she said.)
