As our nation’s annual observance of Black History Month kicks in once again, there’s no need to flip through history books in search of influential African-Americans — especially here in Charlotte. All you have to do is head down to the Blumenthal, catch a show at Amos’ Southend, turn on your radio and/or visit the Harvey B. Gantt Center to witness locals making an impact on our city today — an impact that will last well into the future. To that end, this week we tracked down six of the Queen City’s leading cultural icons and found out why and how they are blazing new trails here, across America and around the world … for all people.

Art is fine but what about economic achievements? What about Nat Turner, Frederick Douglass, Marcus Garvey and Toussaint L’Ouverture? That is what blacks need: independence from whites.
The problem is whites love having blacks around so they don’t feel racist and so there is a permanent underclass to blame all of society’s ills on instead of deposing the elite and charging them with crimes against humanity.
Black people are not just some tool to keep the racial, political and socioeconomic divide alive in the country so the white masses remain distracted and the Jewish elite continue to destroy the country before moving on to China and Brazil.
Whites have to stop this. These Jewish Khazars are your tribal enemies from Europe. Blacks and other people of color have nothing to do with this ongoing feud or the false guilt you feel from being tricked by Jewish Christianity and a Holocaust that never happened to the Jewish elite.
