Lee is an English name Asians with a surname of Lee had ancestors that either emigrated to the United States or lived in an area under British colonial rule. These ancestors had names that sounded like "Lee" so their name was recorded in English as "Lee" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B-Man Posted August 19, 2019 Share Posted August 19, 2019 Imagine hating the United States so bad that you want to rewrite history and claim that the American Revolution was started because England wanted to ban slavery. Imagine thinking that and thinking you're the sane one. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm in the middle of moving so I haven't had time to look into this at all -- but I hadn't realized the Times was trying to frame 1619 as the start of slavery in the Americas.

Talk about breathtakingly dishonest I assume they're not going to mention that the dozen Africans in Jamestown in 1619 were all free men and landholders within 10 years of their arrival. And they worked amongst 1000 Englishman held under identical terms of servitude. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tiberius Posted August 20, 2019 Share Posted August 20, 2019 Trump lashes out at his favorite network. Lol. Fox News’ Bret Baier paused his show Monday night to directly address President Donald Trump’s critiques of his network. “Fox has not changed,” he said. “We have a news side and an opinion side. Opinion folks express their opinions. We do polls.” “Our latest poll had the Democratic candidates head to head, several of them ahead of President Trump, and this poll tracks exactly what the Real Clear Politics average of polls — even a little the other way — and this poll matches what we are seeing out there,” he added, showing a graphic of Trump losing one-on-one matchups with former Vice President Joe Biden and Sens. Bernie Sanders (I-VT), Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) and Kamala Harris (D-CA). https://talkingpointsmemo.com/news/baier-trump-fox-news-poll-2020-elections 3 hours ago, Joe in Winslow said: Have I mentioned how much I hate the NYT?

That's how they're going to play the game, we need to do it as well. This republic's a sham, anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
