(FROM THE ARTICLE: “Slavery was part of the daily culture of the tribal nations,” said Moore’s statement, “with the (Cherokee, Chickasaw, Creek, Choctaw and Seminole tribes) entering into treaties with the Confederate States of America to ensure slavery continued.” Paul Chaat Smith, a Comanche and the associate curator of the Smithsonian National Museum of the American Indian, said in a 2018 speech that these five tribes “were deeply committed to slavery, established their own racialized Black codes, immediately reestablished slavery when they arrived in Indian territory, rebuilt their nations with slave labor, crushed slave rebellions and enthusiastically sided with the Confederacy in the Civil War.” Smith referred to this truth as the “mangy, snarling dog standing between you and a crowd-pleasing narrative,” according to coverage of his speech in Smithsonian magazine. “Indians bought, sold, owned and exploited black people’s labor and reproduction for economic and social gain,” wrote University of Massachusetts at Amherst historian Barbara Krauthamer in her book “Black Slaves, Indian Masters.” “Because the Indian nations existed as autonomous political entities, Union victory did not automatically liberate black people from bondage,” Krauthamer wrote. “Only in the course of negotiating a new treaty with the United States during the spring of 1866 did Choctaw and Chickasaw leaders grudgingly consent to acknowledge slavery’s demise.”)

— How do you help others who do not want your help?
(DIERSEN: Politics is nasty. RINOs are nasty. I should write a book about RINO candidates on ballots in my precinct since 2000, their major donors, their campaign consultants, their fundraisers, their campaign managers, their campaign staff members, and their campaign volunteers who have made it the most clear that they did not want my help. They hinted/implied/argued/shouted that I am “too conservative” and that because of that, the more that I tried to help candidates (distributed their campaign literature in my precinct, displayed their signs on my front yard, got sign locations for them in my precinct, etc.), the fewer votes that those candidates would get. I would focus on the aforesaid who hinted/implied/argued/shouted the most that I am a White supremacist, Nazi, KKK member, hater, racist, sexist, bigot, and even worse things who should be gotten rid of once and for all. Better yet, I should sue them.)

(DIERSEN: This is racial gerrymandering.)
https://www.dailyherald.com/news/20210521/proposal-could-give-hispanic-residents-more-representation-on-kane-county-board
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The plan drew concern from Ron Ford, the only Black county resident on the current board. His current district is part of the eight new proposed ones. Consultants said they were unable to create a majority Black district in the county because the Black population is too small and spread out. “I know for a fact that’s not what the community’s going to want to hear,” Ford said. “There’s an African-American district that works as it is.”)

ILLINOIS LEAKS
— Judge Orders County-Wide Vote Recount In DuPage County – JOHN KRAFT & KIRK ALLEN
(DIERSEN: Bob Grogan is losing by only 75 votes for DuPage County Auditor. If just 38 of the 522 registered voters in my precinct had voted for Grogan instead of White, Grogan would be wining. 38 in my precinct might very well have taken my advice as their Republican Precinct Committeeman to vote for Grogan instead of White if for the last 21 years, Democrat plants, Libertarian Plants, Green plants, Independent plants, and RINOs in the Milton Township Republican Organization, DuPage County Republican Central Committee, Illinois Republican Party, etc. had not focused on discrediting me as being “too conservative” and even worse things.)
https://edgarcountywatchdogs.com/2021/05/judge-orders-county-wide-vote-recount-in-dupage-county/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: In a May 12, 2021 Memorandum and Order, DuPage County Judge Craig R. Belford ordered a county-wide recount of the November 3, 2020, election results for the office of DuPage County Auditor. Petitioner Bob Grogan (R), Candidate for DuPage County Auditor, and Respondent Bill White (D), Candidate for DuPage County Auditor, are named in the complaint. The election was certified as White winning the election with a 75 vote margin of victory, with 491,067 votes cast. Grogan then exercised his right to examine for irregularities in a specified sampling of precincts. As a result of the examination at a particular polling place (containing three precincts) in Downers Grove Township, none of the ballots that were cast were initialed by an election judge, which is required by the Illinois Election Code. Grogan argued that the result of this, if the uninitialed ballots are declared invalid and not counted, Grogan would net 82 votes, which would exceed the 75 vote margin of victory of White. Based on this examination, Grogan asked for a county-wide recount. From the Order: “In construing the above provisions, the Illinois Supreme Court has been both explicit and resolute for more than a century: ” ‘statutes requiring election judges to initial ballots are mandatory, and *** uninitialed ballots may not be counted.’ ” “petitioner’s motion for a full recount us GRANTED, and this court hereby orders that a county-wide recount of the November 3, 2020, election for the office of DuPage County Auditor be conducted in accordance with the procedures set forth in the Agree Recount Order. . . During such recount . . . any in-precinct ballot that is not initialed shall be deemed defective and not counted.”)
