Black radicals who lie about racism
From the NBA to the TDSB, woke black radicals foment racial hatred
By
It is not wrong to notice the prevalence of white progressives, especially white progressive women, who make up the woke movement. However, it is a mistake to think it ends there. My research into the phenomenon of wokeism has shown me many different ethnic or “identity” groups who divide into those who accept wokeism and those who reject it. Two of the most powerful ethnic constituencies who not only accept wokeism but drive much of the social justice revolution, are white progressives and black radicals.
White progressives and wokeism are like two peas in a pod, but what is not understood to the same extent, is the influence of black radicalism. One of the best sources of historical knowledge concerning the black radical tradition is the book Black Marxism: The Making of the Black Radical Tradition by Cedric Robinson. I also recommend the great essay written by my co-writer of the Great Illiberal Subversion series, Mr. M, called A Moral Chimera - this essay covers the origins and historical trajectory of radical black activism in North America.
What should be understood about black radicals is that they are racists who hate white people. This racist hatred has over the decades spread from the rhetoric of black radical activists to the thinking and speech of many otherwise regular black people - that is, non-activists who also hate white people. It is important to mention though that not all black people, activists or not, actually hate white people. By far my favorite black people are the ones who don’t hate me, but those black people are not woke, black racists are the woke ones, and they are the subject of today’s commentary.
The machinations of radical activists have far reaching ramifications. I predict it will take generations to undo the damage of both white progressives and black radicals.
In the discussion below I cover black people who have been captured by the ideologies associated with the black radical tradition, and because so, can barely contain their disdain for white people. First we start south of the border where a National Basketball Association (NBA) commentator who is also a black racist in plain clothes, has revealed the depths of his antipathy toward white players and fans.
Last week ESPN First Take commentator, Kendrick Perkins, made the racist comment that National Basketball Association (NBA) player Nikola Jokic, who is on track to win his third consecutive NBA MVP title, was one of only three players, all white, who have won the MVP award since 1990 while not also being top scorers.
The three white players are Dirk Nowitzki, Steve Nash, and Nikola Jokić. Perkins pointed to the three players and said “what do those three guys have in common? I’ll let it sit and marinate, you think about it.”
A few days later, on First Take, JJ Redick called out Kendrick Perkins for his racism. In responding to Redick during the heated exchange, Perkins implied that NBA fans, specifically those who vote for MVP, are racist. See the video below.
It should be noted that in the 23 NBA seasons from 1982 to 2004, Larry Bird, who won MVP three years in a row (1984-1986), was the only white player to win an MVP. The other 20 seasons had black MVP’s.
After 2004, as mentioned above, Steve Nash won in 2005 & 2006, Dirk Nowitzki in 2007, and Nikola Jokić in 2021 & 2021 - but that is the extent of white representation in the NBA MVP category. However, Kendrick Perkins insists that any white players who win MVP do so because racist white MVP voters, who overwhelmingly vote for black players most years, “move the goalposts” to unfairly award the achievements of white players.
Perkins' rationale is that because Jokic is not the leading scorer, he can’t possibly be the MVP. But fans of the NBA will remember that the three times Magic Johnson won MVP in the 1980s he was nowhere near the leading scorer.
It is great to see people like JJ Redick go on the offensive and call out race hustlers who invent narratives that have no bearing on the truth. Surprisingly, this is something we are also seeing from a principals association in Ontario.
This week at the Toronto District School Board (TDSB), a teacher, principal and vice principal were put on home assignment after a parent accused the school of anti-black racism against her 6 year old son. The situation seems serious but we don’t have many details yet. However, in cases like this the people accused of racism are often put through unnecessarily damaging ordeals whether they are guilty of the accusations or not.
On March 8th, the Ontario Principals’ Council (OPC) released a statement expressing concern about the situation at John-Fraser Public School. From that statement:
“The (OPC)...supports addressing and eliminating systemic racism and the barriers that stand in the way of this work in public education. However, we have become increasingly concerned about deliberately false narratives aimed at destroying the reputations and lives of dedicated educators who are carrying out this important work; cases that have been publicized in the media over the past several years.”
The OPC represents 5,400 principals and vice principals in Ontario’s public elementary and secondary schools. They made themselves clear in their statement:
“We represent the administrators at John Fisher Public School in Toronto, who are facing unwarranted public scrutiny after the media reported that a Black student, age 6, was ‘allegedly locked in a small room.’ We are confident that once this incident is thoroughly investigated, the evidence will show that the student in question was never placed in the room depicted in the media reports, let alone with a closed or locked door.
We are also troubled by the choice of the Toronto District School Board (TDSB) to comment and issue an apology on the allegations in this case at this time, given that the investigation is incomplete. We encourage the board and all parties to do everything in their power to ensure a fair, transparent and swift investigative process.”
The OPC had previously released a statement on January 18th which expressed their concerns over “the process used by some school boards, particularly the TDSB, to assign administrators to home during investigations. In such circumstances, there needs to be a process in place to conduct the investigation that is fair to the administrator, timely and transparent, and not undertaken punitively.”
Returning to John Fraser Public School. A group of over 80 parents - 35 of whom have kids who are in the class with the six year old in question - have signed a petition expressing support for the teacher placed on home assignment, saying they are “an extremely dedicated, attentive and caring teacher.”
In the Toronto Star’s report, the mother who goes by only Faridah (to protect the identity of her son), discusses the situation. If you read between the lines, you most likely will get the impression that Faridah’s son is a troubled kid possibly with some behavioral issues, who is mismatched in a French immersion program he is academically unprepared for.
However, it is not just the statement from the OPC, or the petition signed by 80 parents in support of the teacher accused of anti-black racism, that has made me skeptical of Faridah’s version of the story - although what really happened cannot be known until the investigation is complete. What has caused me to suspect that there is far more to this story than Faridah herself is most likely even aware of, is that she is taking advice from some sketchy new found friends. Friends who swooped in as soon as they heard about Faridah and her son’s alleged encounters with anti-black racism. Of course I’m speaking of none other than the infamous black radical activists known as Parents of Black Children (PoBC). Where there is racial unrest or hate & hysteria to foment, you can count on these black radicals to lead the way.
It is worth mentioning that Faridah’s son was involved in “48 incidents” since the beginning of the school year. Faridah heard many complaints about her son from teachers, things like, he was not sitting still, rolling around on the carpet; mimicking the secretaries, “being obnoxious,” hitting another kid while practicing Karate moves in class. Teachers also told Faridah that her son was not a good fit for the French immersion program he was in, that he would not be able to catch up to his classmates.
PoBC interpreted the situation of course as anti-black racism. It could not be that Faridah’s son, who is hopelessly behind his classmates, is frustrated and acting out because of it. What is being claimed is, “over-surveillance,” an example of systemic racism that “happens all the time,” says Charline Grant, chief advocacy officer with PoBC.
I’ve already gone too long with this post so I will conclude by pointing to one of the most important essays I’ve ever written on this issue. I attended a PoBC meeting last year and reported in detail on the shocking level of anti-white racism. To get a sense of what PoBC are all about, read Exploring The Grievance Pathway Of Anti-Racism

Once again James Pew goes where no other journalist dares to go...toward Truth. Nothing in schools is more nauseating than seeing so-called “antiracists” turning children of this generation into anti-white racists. The woke race-hustlers should be shown the school door, as with any really dangerous student - regardless of race or religion or anything else.
You would never know that only 4% of Canada,s population is black it seems they have jumped onto the Indigenous bandwagon regards power from the Lieberal Govt crying moaning and groaning about how unfair life is because of racist white people (all of us apparently). It is our fault that they can not succeed in life, Gee where did we hear that before?
Thankfully most of this occurs in the big cities because out in the burbs we have none of that certainly none that I am aware off. We live in a small village in Bruce County near lake Huron which was settled in the early 1800,s by primarily Scots and English so you might say that is about colonial as you can get and quite a few people including my wife and I have roots going back to both countries, we are however Canadians and not the hyphenated kind. There are a very mixed bag of people living in our area now and the include people from Europe, the Middle east, the far east the Caribbean and lately from Afghanistan and the Ukraine the strange thing is everyone gets along very well 99% of all people you may encounter here will always have time to meet & greet and say hello without any rancor or hatred, black mix with white and red and brown thankfully we have no agitators of any race here where everyone acts as an equal.
My advice to those in the cities is to get out while the getting is good because it is going to get a hell of a lot worse this Government (the Feds) will see to that with their divisive hateful policies. You only need to look at third world despot countries and banana republics to realize that the communist regimes such as Trudeau,s bring this to the citizens purposely to accomplish their own agendas.
