Last year the Jena Six made headlines among stories of racial fighting, nooses and discrimination. Thousands united to show their support for the boys, and now, supporters are needed more than ever as a group for the “national majority” (read: whites only) are planning to march on MLK day, in a protest against celebrating the holiday of the fallen civil rights leader, and to protest against the reduced, but still severe, punishment the all black boys face.

So basically, this is a racist group who is going to march to spread hate, and attempt to insult the black community by marching on MLK day. And I guess since I have lived in the south my entire life, this doesn’t surprise me, but it does disgust me. I don’t understand why a group who’s only message is hate and division is allowed to march. Of course I understand the value of freedom of speech, which dutifully entails the fact you must support the protection of speech, even when it is against what the majority would want to hear, but when the purpose of an entire organization is discrimination, that should not be allowed.

If you live in the area, or just want to send your support to the Jena 6, visit the site for The January 21st Committee, and see how you can lend support. I also suggest you visit the Nationalists racists site, and send them an email protesting the message they are spreading, which includes things like this:

Why race is the issue in the Jena Six case

What Reed Walters failed to factor into his presentation:

• • Black-power: The mother of Mychal Bell is the head of the local NAACP.
  • Jailbirds: 25% of all adult, Negro males is either in jail or on parole for criminality.
  • Thuggas: Robert Bailey and Theo Shaw refer to them selves as “thuggas” on MySpace, indicating adulation of murder, burglary and looting.
  • Ebonics: Several of the Jena Six refer to themselves as “niggas” and use Ebonics.
  • Wilding: The victim of the Jena Six was targeted because he was white, a gangster-practice known as “wilding.”
  • Quotas: Some courts demand Negroes on juries and toss a case, if there aren’t any.

Really….take the time and send these assholes a message, and tell them that their views are not what the “majority” believes, and that the only majority they make up is the idiotic and uneducated.
