The Colored Sacred Harp

 

I have written here before about the history and mechanics of Sacred Harp singing, shape-notes, and Singing Schools.  James Kibler has delivered some truly excellent talks about Singing Billy Walker and the origins of Amazing Grace as an original tune called New Britain in Southern Harmony and Musical Companion, and I strongly urge you to listen to his presentations.  Listen to them again if you’ve already heard them, because he suggests, and I wholeheartedly agree, that Amazing Grace is the greatest and most defining song ever produced by an American – and a staunch rebel Southerner at that.

Confederate Cemetery In Arkansas Adding Surveillance After Graves Vandalized With BLM Graffiti

Via Billy

"This little tiny Confederate cemetery — they would have really have to have come looking for this..."

A cemetery in Little Rock, Arkansas, is adding additional surveillance after Confederate graves and a monument to Confederate war dead were graffitied with vulgar, anti-police slogans earlier this month.

Vandals entered the Oakland-Fraternal Cemetery during the early morning hours of July 11 to deface an obelisk dedicated to 900 unknown Confederate soldiers. They also spray painted nine Confederate graves, most of which contained unidentified remains, according to The Arkansas Democrat-Gazette. Phrases scrawled on the memorials included “Black Lives Matter,” “F Trump,” “F your martyr,” and “Defund the pigs!!”More @

The media’s insane whitewashing of Portland’s violence

 

If the media covered pandemics like they do the Portland riots, the coronavirus wouldn’t be dominating the headlines.

On a nightly basis, hordes of rioters attack federal law enforcement officers who are guarding Portland’s Mark O. Hatfield Federal Courthouse. Many of these thugs appear to be with antifa, a violent left-wing extremist organization.

The criminals routinely pelt federal officers with frozen water bottles, cans of beans and rocks. They shine high-powered lasers at the building to blind officers. They launch commercial-grade fireworks at law enforcement. They attempt to tear down the metal fence that law enforcement set up to keep criminals from destroying the building. Others use saws to cut it apart. They start fires outside the courthouse. They throw Molotov cocktails.

“The state of our children is abysmal.”

Via 4Branch via Concerned American

Above is a link to a 3+ hour session of front line practicing physicians,

exposing the fear and panic surrounding the scamdemic.

Many excellent presentations, but I recommend paying particular note to

the segment from minute 56:30 to 1:05:00, in its entirety, provided by a

practicing child psychiatrist.

Some excerpts:

“The state of our children is abysmal.”

“The pandemic, in my mind, is not so much a medical pandemic; it’s an

emotional pandemic, and this emotional pandemic is based on, and

centered around, fear. The fear is real, but it is not based on reality.

I have tried to provide facts, data, statistics, information to my

patients and their parents for weeks, and months. Some of them do

listen, some of them do change their minds, because they believe that

there is probably more going on than what they’re being told, and that

what they’re being told is probably not entirely accurate. A lot of it

is lies, a lot of it is misinformation.

But, very many of my parents and children don’t respond to information.

I’m a big proponent of facts, I’m a big proponent of information, I’m a

big proponent of science. I’m a physician, that’s how I was trained.

But I also know that, unless we deal with this fear, and we take it and

face it, head on…information will not be of use. You cannot use

information, no matter how accurate it is, unless you’re in a calm state

of mind.

Anybody who’s worked in the military knows this: when you’re in a state

of panic, when you’re terrorized and you’re traumatized, you cannot

think clearly. Most of the adults in my practice with children coming in

for treatment are in that state; they are not responsive to information.

They are allowing fear to drive their decisions.”

“The children are suffering; in my view this is child abuse. We are

training an entire generation of children to live in a state of fear. To

live in fear of people.”

“Why is this happening? Why are we living in this state of fear, this

pandemic of fear? My belief is that there has been an unholy alliance

made between certain politicians, certain media, and special interest

groups.”

[Paraphrase: One of the largest special interest groups is the teachers

unions and in the state of California it is THE largest…the largest

financial contributor to the Governor, to the county, to the city]

“..and they have effectively told parents that if you send your kids

back to school, the moment that they cross the threshold, they will die.

And before they die, they will kill all the teachers. This is not an

error, this is not naive, this is a lie. It is a cynical, manipulative

lie, to hold the children hostage, for personal gain. It is evil.

We made a mistake, in March, as a country. The single biggest mistake in

my view which was to close our schools. Without schools open, nobody can

work. And when nobody can work, we don’t have an economy. And without an

economy, we have a country of dependency. We have a country where we do

not have the right or the capacity to exercise choice. And this choice

can be from whether to work or to go to school, all the way down to what

direction we walk at our local supermarket.”
