In the post-racial era, the Left decided that people of color shouldn&#8217;t be allowed the opportunity to serve their country and reap the benefits of the service. And who is surprised that Matthis Chiroux was on hand;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>The demonstration was a follow up to a press conference held on Saturday July 11th, the opening day of the convention where Benjamin Jealous, CEO and President of the NAACP, was asked by a high school student and a military mother why military recruiters were invited to recruit, given that the NAACP had come out against the Iraq war. Benjamin Jealous refused to disinvite the Army Strong Recruitment Tour and said that the recruiters would not be recruiting.<\/p>\n<p>At the press conference this afternoon Debra Sweet, representatives of the Ya Ya Youth Network, revolution youth, war resister Mathis Chiroux, and Barbara Harris all spoke very eloquently as to why the NAACP should not allow military recruiters into its convention. The main points driven home were that the wars\/occupations decided to go inside the convention to see what the Army Strong Tour was doing. What we found was appalling. Over 60% over the Diversity Career Fair was military.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>That&#8217;s horrible &#8211; unless you factor in that the military is the most color-blind facet of our society and has been for decades. In fact, one Black recruiter got a first hand look of the racist attitude of the writer of this piece;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>The recruiter tried to defend recruitment by going into what the navy had done for her. My activist friend began to tell her she understood that this recruiter felt that the navy had done a lot for her but \u2026 This  was when the conversation was cut short by another Black male recruiter approaching us and demanding to know what we were doing there. He demanded that we leave and that if we didn\u2019t we would be escorted out. My friend asked why. We were told we were being loud and disruptive. <\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>The Black female was obviously so stupid that she didn&#8217;t realize that the Navy had abused her somehow and it took a white loudmouthed Leftist to tell her how her life wasn&#8217;t really better. <\/p>\n<p>All WCW and the others will accomplish is convince more impoverished Blacks to be left out of the economy. According to the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.stripes.com\/article.asp?section=104&#038;article=63896\">Stars and Stripes<\/a> this morning, the basic training stations are jam-packed with new recruits;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>A sagging economy, declining casualty rate in Iraq and a resurgence in the U.S. military&#8217;s popularity appear to have contributed to a strong recruiting year, Army leaders said.<\/p>\n<p>And the steady training schedule at Fort Jackson is likely to continue into next year as recruits find themselves on a waiting list to report for duty.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Shipping dates are anywhere from six weeks to two to three months out,&#8221; said Sgt. 1st Class Jay Jenkins, who works at the Army&#8217;s downtown Columbia recruiting station.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>So instead of helping minorities out their poverty, WCW and Matthis Chiroux are content to leave them mired in their unfortunate circumstances. Oh, and here&#8217;s a little bit about World Can&#8217;t Wait from <a href=\"http:\/\/www.discoverthenetworks.org\/groupProfile.asp?grpid=7213\">Discover the Networks<\/a>;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Founded in June 2005 by Charles Clark Kissinger, a longtime leader of the Revolutionary Communist Party, World Can&#8217;t Wait (WCW) is a direct action movement seeking to organize &#8220;people living in the United States to take responsibility to stop the whole disastrous course led by the Bush administration.&#8221; <\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>I guess that&#8217;s where the money is, huh, Matthis? Did it suddenly dry up in Alabama?<\/p>\n<p>Thanks to Navy Brat for the link.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It seems that the World Can&#8217;t Wait and their attendant affiliates got angry at the NAACP &hellip; <a title=\"World Can&#8217;t Wait protests NAACP\" class=\"hm-read-more\" href=\"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/?p=12994\"><span class=\"screen-reader-text\">World Can&#8217;t Wait protests NAACP<\/span>Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8,37,47,84,30,52],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-12994","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-antiwar-crowd","category-ivaw","category-liberals-suck","category-military-issues","category-phony-soldiers","category-usual-suspects"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12994","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=12994"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12994\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=12994"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=12994"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=12994"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
