Rev. Darrell Scott, with his Brian Pumper haircut, is a blaring example of the problem with black churches in regards to this modern Civil Rights movement. Darrell Scott, is a “Christian” preaching man who, much like most self-hating black men, isn’t afraid of throwing black people — the very same black community that fills his vault full of coin — under the bus. Dealing with Trump, expect that throw under the bus to be followed by a rope-to-vehicle carcass dragging.

Ladies, Gentlemen, children of all ages…
I regret to inform all those who thought Santa must be white that he is a fictional character. Of course, the bigger picture will be shown; our modern day fictional Santa Claus is based on a real historical figure. He wasn’t white.
Saint Nick is based on a historical figure known as Nikolaos of Myra or ((Latin) and he lived from 15 March 270 to 6 December 343. He was from Greece, but only by the way of political boundaries. He was born in Patara, which is in the Antalya Province, modern day Turkey. This means that he isn’t white, at least by today’s standards anyway. In fact he would look like an old Middle-Eastern fellow with white hair, among the ethnicity that hasn’t been considered a part of the white conglomerate since 9/11. If Saint Nick existed…

On the eve of the American Civil War in 1861, a significant number of Indigenous peoples of the Americas had been relocated from the Southeastern United States to Indian Territory, west of the Mississippi. The inhabitants of the eastern part of the Indian Territory, the Five Civilized Tribes, were suzerain nations with established tribal governments, well established cultures, and legal systems that allowed for slavery. Before European Contact these tribes were generally matriarchial societies, with agriculture being the primary economic pursuit. The bulk of the tribes lived in towns (some covering hundreds of acres and containing thousands of people) with planned streets, residential and public areas. The people were ruled by complex hereditary chiefdoms of varying size and complexity with high levels of military organization.[1]
By the middle of the 19th century, the United States Government had started leasing land from the Five Civilized Tribes (ex. Choctaw and Chickasaw[2]) in the western, more arid, part of Indian Territory. These leased lands were used to resettle several Plains Indian tribes that tended to be nomadic in nature, embracing the Horse culture. At the extreme, the Comanche society was based on patrilinear and patrilocal extended family sharing a common language; they did not developed the political idea of forming a nation or tribe until their relocation to Indian Territory.
At the beginning of the Civil War, the Union Army was withdrawn from Indian Territory exposing the Five Civilized Tribes to aggression from the Plains Indians. The Confederacy filled the vacuum. All of the Five Civilized Tribes as well as other surrounding tribes signed treaties with the Confederacy. As a part of reconstruction, the Southern Treaty Commission was created by Congress to write new treaties with the Tribes that sided with the Confederacy.Black Church Leaders Challenge Hillary Clinton on Religious Freedom, Race and Poverty,Call for Meeting
The Choctaw Nation and Chickasaw Nation in Indian Territory strongly support the Confederacy which signed the Treaty with Choctaws and Chickasaws. The Cherokee Nation, Muscogee (Creek) Nation and Seminole Nation had troops fighting on both sides.[3] Other tribes such as Osage, Seneca, Seneca and Shawnee of the Neosho Agency, and Quapaw Tribes also signed treaties with the Confederacy.
During the Civil War, the Union Congress passed a statute that gave the President the authority to suspend the appropriations of any tribe if the tribe is “in a state of actual hostility to the government of the United States… and, by proclamation, to declare all treaties with such tribe to be abrogated by such tribe”(25 U.S.C. Sec. 72).[4]
Many of the Reconstruction Treaties were titled with the phrase “Treaty of Washington.” These treaties replaced the treaties that were voided when the tribes signed treaties with the Confederacy. Some Indian tribes signed treaties at the Ft. Smith conference. The Five Civilized Tribes agreed to draft treaties, but final treaties were signed in Washington, D.C. during the year of 1866.
All the treaties contained:[31]
The Choctaw and Chickasaw Nations had a single Reconstruction Treaty, the Choctaw and Chickasaw Treaty of Washington (1866).[32]in which they sold land west of the 98 longitude to the United States for $300,000. Much of this land was previously “leased” to the Federal Government and was the home of other Indian tribes.
Cherokee gave up their “Neutral Lands” in southeastern Kansas and the Cherokee Strip, to be sold to the highest bidder for not less than $1.25 an acre. They also agreed sell land to the Osage Nation and to allow the federal government to settle other tribes in the Cherokee Outlet in exchange for payment made by the government to the Cherokee Nation.

In November 2006, The Harvest Institute joined with the Black Indians United Legal Defense and Education Fund to form The Harvest Institute Freedman Federation (HIFF). The new organization filed a ground-breaking legal complaint in the United States Federal Court in Washington, D.C. against the United States Department of Interior and its Bureau of Indian Affairs (BIA). This is one of the most important economic justice actions the Harvest Institute has taken on behalf of Black America and we are Playing to Win.
