Now That Our Kids Are the Majority, These Are Our Demands

merica awoke this morning to the news that whites are losing their grip on the ballot box even faster than predicted. By 2015, more than half of the babies born in the United States were supposed to be children of color. But the census bureau says it happened almost 5 years earlier, in July 2010, when 50.4 percent of one-year-olds were either black, Latino, Asian-American or otherwise colored. Bwahahaha! This is going to be interesting!

Hallelujah that white supremacy has two fatal flaws: 1) it’s architects can’t control anyone’s birth rates and 2) it’s architects can’t control immigration. Yes! #GetOverIt.

Now that our kids are the majority, we have some demands. Don’t worry. They’re totally reasonable.

For one thing, we want to dominate all branches of government at all levels. I’m talking like 90 percent, just like whites do now. That’s right — we want to fill every office with our mayors, governors, state legislators, and congresspeople, most judges, justices, and presidential cabinet members, and yes — all presidents. Juries too. No whites allowed. They might be biased. We also want dominance in private industry and education. Speaking of schools, yeah, black studies, chicano studies, ethnic studies, uh, that’s gonna be required now. Here’s a reading list for black studies to help you get started. It was really awesome learning so much about Charlemagne and Avignon and French history in general. But in the interest of time, we’re gonna focus a bit more on our history. Corporate welfare? Great idea. I think we’ll have our businesses get involved in that. Don’t worry. We’ll set aside some food stamps for whites — that is if quotas are Constitutional. (We’ll have to check on that.)

Education overall is a mess. So we’re gonna be taking a look at the distribution of tax dollars to schools and school districts to make sure our kids get a fair share. Maybe we’ll move the resources to our schools and keep in place your system of segregation. Just kidding. We wouldn’t screw you like  that. But the SAT will be in Spanish only. And I’m afraid that we’re gonna have to change the tax code. Yeah, a steep death tax will help us redistribute some of the money you inherited from that awesome system your ancestors set up and/or benefited from — the one where mine worked for free. We’re gonna make special efforts to find the descendants of slave masters and take everything they now have. Thanks!

Also, the  criminal justice system is just not working for us. We noticed that whites do a lot of drugs, but rarely do time for it. Not sure what direction we’ll go in with that policy. Possibly something to punish them retroactively. We’ll keep you posted.

Oh, and, um, we’re gonna open up the borders — only to Asian, South American and African countries — of course. Wanna accelerate our achievement of total domination.

In the meantime, we have some other smaller, but irritating things that need to change.

  1. No more penalties for excessive endzone celebration. #GetOverIt that’s how we celebrate.
  2. No more marginalization of our speech, dialects and slang. Thanks for the standard English education. We’ll take it from here.
  3. No more theft and misappropriation of our music and culture. When you’re a minority, your culture will be exotic. Make your own.
  4. No more denials of racist motivations for racist acts. Who do you think you’re fooling?
  5. No more all white movie casts and TV shows. Sorry, but that stuff just isn’t gonna sell.

Got a problem with this? This is capitalism and democracy — all of this will happen through the legislative process or through the markets. When we once complained about things, you said it was a white Christian country and we had to live by your rules. You said, “Go back to Africa.” You preach the superiority of Europe. Perhaps you should take your own advice. Greece is crumblingcalling.

Mitt Romney’s Dad Was on Welfare

Could some of Mitt Romney's hostility toward people who use the social safety net stem from his feelings about his father?

Romney’s Tone & Style Are Not the Problem — His Values Are

Republicans are in denial about the bigger problem Romney faces -- the moral bankruptcy of the political philosophy they share.

Will Romney’s Latest Gaffe Really Cost Him the Election?

As ironic and as tone deaf as Romney's comments were, I don't think they alone will cost him the election.

    Wait wait wait wait. I’m with you on everything BUT this: No more theft and misappropriation of our music and culture. When you’re a minority, your culture will be exotic. Make your own.

    When you’re the majority, there IS no appropriation of your music and culture. Your music and culture is by default “the norm” and it is assumed that everyone participates in it and enjoys it.

    The misappropriation will now go the other way, when people of color take up white cultural artifacts.


  2. I love you dear sister for writing this article peace and blessings.. its going to happen, no more white supremacy, for all the past people who went through hell and still because of these evil animals on this planet.. I been looking for this to happen for 20′ something years as well as many conscious people for freedom from white supremacy and its evilness can’t happen fast enough.. Please Great Mother God..

    Can you indulge a frightened white guy a final kindness?. Will foodstamps cover low trans fat meals?

    Yowza! Go, Kelly! :D

    Of course, the oppressors’ greatest fear is that the oppressed will rise up an treat them as they have treated the oppressed. They’re terrified that reciprocal injustice is lurking out there somewhere. Poor babies.


    • Hey Melody! Good to hear from you. Hope all is well. It’s ironic that is exactly what we put up with! I know America’s transition won’t be easy. But I’m glad to know that change is inevitable.


      • Melody Ivins

        Inevitable as long as we all keep pushing as hard as we can!
        Blessings on you and your excellent work.

    What was funny was seeing the headlines on the Washington Post and NY Times:

    “Census: Minority babies are now majority in United States”
    WP

    “Whites Account for Under Half of Births in U.S.”
    NY

    Couldn’t imagine two more starkly contrasting takes on the same story.

    1) as long as 75% of all black children are born out of wedlock, we will have problems, now and in the future
    2) as long as Black and Brown people are disproportionately poor, we will have problems now and in the future
    3) as long as Black and Brown people are not voting, we will have problems now and in the future
    4) as long as public education is funded by local school taxes, Black and Brown people will continue to get poor education, and people who live in the nice suburbs (including many of your college educated readers), will fight to keep that system in place

    without resources and programs in place, this actually makes our problems worse, rather than better – in many cases

    just my opinion

      Your above comments are sooooo true. I thought about them this morning when reading the article. I thought mostly about the wave of Republication law changes throughout the country.
      a) Educational Opportunities–cutbacks especially in minority districts (limited tax base)
      b) Employment Opportunities — especially those to support upward mobility
      c) Money–as long as most minorities are at the low end of the spectrum in earning & saving it would be hard to surpass those in the money
      d) Voting–it seems like voter suppression is what will make a different. Don’t let it happen. Get out and find ways to get registered.
      e) State businesses–I am a small business (18 yrs) struggling but holding on.


      • Indeed, I didn’t think about how these fears are impacting Republican politics until I started reading this. There does need to be a fundamental shift in this country — towards fairness. And Republicans, even some Democrats and independents – are doing everything they can to stop the new majority from getting a fair share.
