How Corporate Media Erases Black American Oppositional History

No, No, No. Do not let the host of The View get away with it. I’m very pro-black female host and all that, but, like Tim Scott who she was interviewing, that doesn’t mean she gets a free pass. All corporate media hosts always have their earpiece in, through which the corporate media producers speak to them and help control the narrative (there are six major companies).

She just buried all those other super brave black men who ran for congress and senate seats in 20th century in South Carolina. Five black men ran for Congress, helped only by black lawyers. That includes the honorable black American Osceola McKaine who ran for Senator in 1944.

What, they don’t count? You don’t think the near-impossible labyrinthian legal maze whites constructed to stop black Americans from running for office in that state wasn’t worth mentioning. They’re even qualifying to run was a vast legal victory, and they put their lives at risk, as political confrontation power is the ultimate act of “uppitiness”, a crime deserving of immediate lynching in the state. Black Americans got killed for just trying to register to vote in the 1950s, or helping others, like activist Medgar Evers.
