The New Apartheid: World Silent on S. African Black v. White Genocide

In the 1980s, the world outcry was loud against racist Apartheid in South Africa. We heard the “Free South Africa” slogan often, and many companies that did business with the country were boycotted. But now that the shoe is on the other foot–and has been for some years since Black extremists took over the South African government, race-based mobs rule much of the country. The same goes for some other African nations with White populations, such as Zimbabwe, where White-owned farms have been seized by the government and there is an epidemic of racist rapes of White women. South Africa’s wacko President, Jacob Zuma, an African National Congress leader, is basically a Marxist, a proud polygamist, and a friend and supporter of Islamic extremists. And ANC figures, including Nelson Mandela and Desmond Tutu are openly anti-Semitic and anti-Israel. Nothing more than Marxist, racist thugs long allied with the P.L.O. So much for civilization. And speaking of civilization and the civilized, a White South African farmer filed a petition with the United Nations alleging that South Africa is practicing genocide against its White people. Given the figures–whether you accept his or the official number–it looks like he is correct. There is now tremendous anti-White racism run amok in the country. A white farmer has accused the South African government of genocide in a petition submitted to the United Nations. The man, who has remained anonymous for fear of reprisals, blamed the African National Congress’ (ANC) policies for a wave of murders and criminal attacks against what he called the “Afrikaner Boer”. At least 3,000 white farmers have been killed in South Africa since the end of apartheid. Official figures suggest around 3,020 white farmers have been murdered since 1990, but the petition claims the true figure is 36,500. The ANC is accused of colluding with criminals to eradicate the white minority in South Africa. Will the UN and the world take notice the way they did with the anti-Black Apartheid once present in South Africa? Don’t hold your breath. Black-on-White racism doesn’t fit the preferred liberal narrative. So, it will be ignored. It’s important to remember that many White South Africans fought for equal rights for South Africa’s Black and mixed race people. It’s because of them–and not just world pressure–that South Africa ended anti-Black Apartheid. Now, that there’s a new Apartheid in town, I doubt you’ll see many Black South Africans–or anyone else in the world–giving a whit. added by: crystalman

Power Ranger David Yost: I Quit ‘Because I Was Called Faggot’ One Too Many Times’ / Queerty

In an announcement that will shock many of you — TO YOUR CORE — 41-year-old actor David Yost, who played the Mighty Morphin’ Power Rangers' Billy Cranston (aka Blue Ranger), has come out. But that's not where the story ends. Yost says he quit the show because he was harassed over his sexuality. “Creators, producers, writers, directors” all threw the F-word around at him. Yost, whose character was written out in subsequent franchise incarnations, reveals in a lengthy interview that he “walked off set one day in the middle of lunch,” a move he had been thinking about for about a week. “Continuing to work in an environment like that is really difficult. I myself was struggling with who I was, or what I was, and to be made fun of on some level, or to be stereotyped, or put into a category … I was continually being told I'm not worthy of where I am because I'm quote-unquote a gay person and I'm not supposed to be an actor and can't be a superhero.” His co-stars, Yost says, were beckoned into producers' offices on multiple occasions to be quizzed about his sexuality. And after leaving the show, everything was swell? No. He spent two years trying to “pray the gay away,” had a nervous break down, checked himself into a mental hospital for five weeks, and upon his release he moved to Mexico for a year. “It frustrated me that I hated myself on such a level that I couldn't accept myself.” added by: toyotabedzrock

‘American Idol’ Fave Crystal Bowersox Was ‘Never Angry’ With Ryan Seacrest

Bowersox says she didn’t threaten to quit the show. By Gil Kaufman Crystal Bowersox Photo: Frank Micelotta/ Getty Images Despite the drama surrounding her alleged attempt to quit the show, Crystal Bowersox said she is not mad at “American Idol” host Ryan Seacrest for talking to the press about her moment of doubt. Bowersox told People magazine that despite reports to the contrary, she doesn’t hold a grudge against the sometimes excitable host for spilling the beans about a conversation they had in the “Idol” parking lot a few weeks ago. “We were never angry with each other. We had a conversation. He gave me good advice, and I highly respect him,” said Bowersox, who confirmed that there is “no beef” between her and Seacrest. She also threw water on speculation that the conversation was a result of her contemplating leaving the show, on which she is the undisputed front-runner. “No,” was her simple answer to a question about whether he talked her down from quitting. Bowersox also explained why she had such an emotional reaction on Tuesday night when she sang “People Get Ready,” a performance that was instantly tagged as one of the best of the season , if not the history of the show. “I looked up and saw the mirror of the sunglasses my dad brought because he was trying to hide it if he cried,” Bowersox explained of the sight that brought her to tears before she finished her song. “And was like, ‘I know he’s crying.’ ” After breaking down onstage during her performance, Sox explained to Seacrest that seeing her dad in the audience for the first time had made her very emotional.

The attention-starved reality star claimed he was gonna quit the show before he was fired; and that his legal maneuvering to get it off the air has nothing at all to do with the fact he won’t be receiving paychecks anymore from the program. Anyone that believes these tales must also believe Robert Halderman was only looking out for David Letterman’s best interests.
