They really are pushing that ugly nonentity pygmy Harriet Tubman lately and you can see why. Her history is a blank and no one really knows what she did, if she did anything at all. So she's a negro cipher and blank screen on which they can cast any tales of derring-do and sacrifice and sainthood they please. And who's going to call them out on it in public? Why, she's a black and holy martyr, the founder of the new black nation of America and few have the intestinal fortitude to mess with that. So they can say she was the black Moses, the spy who came in from the cotton field, a Wakandan Warrior Queen leading armies of the night into glorious battle, she freed half the negros before Lincoln got his boots on. And though it may raise some eyebrows and some hackles most will just let it slide. You can't quibble with them when they are Tubman thumping. When the truth contradicts the legend they will print the anti-White lies.
Now they say that this spook was a spook and they have a big memorial to her at Langley, so the last remaining patriots at the CIA can see to what depth their country has descended. By rights you'd think this squat negro was the Founding Mother, you can't say they never told a lie about her, but they will say that she slept here. Newark is a city that is half black and nearly half Hispanic so it has the demographics of a pest hole, so it's no surprise they have a mayor named "Ras." And they certainly have wheeled in the pop gun to take out the big guns. This Tubman lady has knocked the real giants off their perch, she took out George Washington and Christopher Columbus in one fell swoop. The conservatives will say that you can't teach that the American founding was racist in our schools but they already are; but the real thing you have to teach is that was why we were great in the first place. That's one thing you won't learn at the Tubman learning wall.

The mayor of Newark is named "Ras" and you might as well say there goes the neighborhood but in truth the neighborhood went a long time ago. And surely any sensible white man has long put as much real estate between him and that black cauldron of crime as he possibly could. The mayor of Newark's name is also "Baraka" and there goes the nation. His father is the infamous White Genocide Activist and poet (they say) named Amiri and when your poets are named Amiri there goes the civilization. This said poet once claimed that White men are fags, that the average ofay (slur term for White person) thinks that the black man is bound to rape every White woman in sight, something which history does not contradict. He then said that every black man should rape every White woman in sight, it's the arc of justice bending toward the right, that the black man should rob the White man of everything he has, something which the maniacal push for reparations of late is doing. He said that all White women understand that only in the "rape sequence" by the black man do they get cleanly and viciously popped. This criminally minded black lunatic's son is now the mayor of a black-brown pest hole and they are replacing George Washington and Christopher Columbus with a ugly squat black pygmy who never did anything of note. There goes the neighborhood, as the song says.
"Newark’s Mayor Ras Baraka, community leaders and celebrities including the musician and actor Queen Latifah and writer Pia Wilson led celebrations of a new monument (a 25 Foot Effigy) to the abolitionist Harriet Tubman this week. The ceremony was a historic final step in replacing a Christopher Columbus statute that was removed from a square in the New Jersey city following the murder of George Floyd in 2020."
They removed that statue of the great Columbus because the "authorities" were afraid that citizens (meaning vandals) would tear it down themselves. Thus they got the toppler's veto though it wasn't hard that summer when statues of the noble sailor were coming down all over the Western World. After all if the White race is the cancer of human history (as a Jew said) then Columbus was patient zero. It wasn't just small pox in those blankets.
"Gone is an ode to Columbus, who engaged in in the kidnapping, enslavement and killing of Indigenous people in the Caribbean. Instead is now a depiction of Tubman, a legendary racial justice activist. Known as the Moses of her people, Tubman, who escaped slavery herself, helped other enslaved people gain their freedom amid great danger, acting as what was known as a conductor of the Underground Railroad during the civil war."
Holy Moses, let my people go! And legendary is the accurate term to describe the squat negro pygmy nonentity, as the tall tales they regale us with about her are all fabricated out of whole cloth. For all we know she once told a fugitive slave to "go thataway" and that is the sum and substance of her accomplishments. Certainly that is much closer to being the truth than the pile of nonsense they have ascribed to her. And by now we really wished they had let her people go, go back to Africa, anywhere but here. Perhaps to Wakanda. We are told it is a gleaming and progressive kind of place.
"The new Tubman monument in Newark, Shadow of a Face, designed by the architect Nina Cooke John, is installed at a park that had been known as Washington Park since the 1790s. The monument takes the form of a circular learning wall that guides visitors through a multi-sensory experience that includes educational text and audio stories about Tubman’s life and the city’s history of Black liberation. A carving of Tubman’s face graces the exterior of the wall and her silhouette, towering above the wall, is shaped by steel frames at the center of the circle."
The shadow of the truth is much more like it of course, and as for that face it's one not even a mother could love. This Nina lady is a light-skinned negro who is now in the lucrative business of erecting monuments for the erectus among us. Just as they put Holocaust museums and memorials on every corner of every city, the future of memorials to the blacks is a business that is and will be booming. After all when you remove that statue of that White confederate cavalry officer in your town square you have to fill the space with a spade. And you know that what they will be learning at that learning wall is that all the problems of black people stem from what evil Whitey did to them in the past, it has nothing to do with their innate disposition to aggressive behavior and their woefully low IQ. Hell no it doesn't, where would that notoriously high black self-esteem be if they had to face that unpleasant truth? The fact is that the systemic racism charge is a canard and a get of jail free card for blacks: so they don't have to look themselves in a mirror and face the horrible reality of their savagery.
"The monument features a circular wall with a steel outline of Tubman within and ceramic tiles from Newark residents. It also includes a listening wall where visitors can hear accounts, narrated by the Newark-born rapper, actor Queen Latifah and written by author Pia Wilson, about Tubman’s life and the city’s connection to emancipation. Cooke John said that the installation aims to connect the stories of the past to the stories of today."
My assumption is the listening wall is the learning wall, so you can hear a fat washed up celebrity "Queen" warble about all the things that Tubman supposedly did but didn't really do. It will be brainwashing on an epic scale, but at least the young ones won't get any wrong ideas about the greatness of Christopher Columbus. By the stories of today they most definitely don't mean that black guy who shot that White guy in broad daylight, or those black thugs who forced those White kids to say that black lives matter (they don't), or when that black guy went in to a high end furniture store near the UCLA campus and killed a White woman, nor the story of the black criminal who walked into a 99 cent store and killed a White woman, or any of the other stories (not ripped from the headlines, these stories don't merit the headlines) we all know about. No, not those stories, those stories are off the radar hush hush. No the stories of today that they want to connect to the fake stories of Harriet Tubman are all fake themselves, all about blacks suffering under the legacy of slavery and Jim Crow when we all know that socially speaking they are in the catbird seat.
"In a time when so many cities are choosing to topple statues that limit the scope of their people’s story, we have chosen to erect a monument that spurs us into our future story of exemplary strength and solidity. In a country where the overwhelming majority of monuments are testaments to white males, Newark has chosen to erect a monument to a Black woman who was barely five feet tall, but had the visage and power of a giant, Mayor Baraka said at the unveiling."
First off she has a visage that frightens small children and startles the horses. And anyone who knows the story of the blacks in America will know that the chances of "exemplary strength" being the descriptor of the future of blacks in this country is not north of zero. Rather, the future of blacks in this country is mayhem, murder and misery. The only question is who are they going to take down with them. That's why there are still so many testaments and monuments to White males, they all knew the score on that one.
"The monument – funded by the Mellon Foundation’s Presidential Initiatives and informed by Mellon’s national Monuments Project – will include a learning wall and community mosaic with clay tiles designed by Newark residents during a series of art-making workshops conducted in partnership with the Newark Museum of Art, as well as an auditory visitor experience detailing Newark’s contribution to the abolitionist movement as well as community stories of liberation."
This Mellon Monuments Project is dedicated to tearing down the heart and soul of the White American past until there is nothing left. They have sunk some 250 million in to it and they are conducting a thoroughgoing audit of all the statues that exist in America of White men. If there was a hero of the conquest who might have killed an Indian or two, if there was a Prairie Pioneer who wanted black people out of the West, if there was a Plantation Owner, or a Northerner who didn't cotton to abolition, or a Politician who said that America was created on the White basis and must ever remain so, if there was a President who bemoaned White race suicide, if there was a writer who didn't like negros, if there is roadside maker which said this was the beginning of White civilization in those parts, if there is a memorial or marker or statue to any of these the Mellon Monuments Project will be sure to be on the spot and have them in their database-cum-shit list. And then they will lobby for them to be torn down until they are torn down.
"Baraka called the statue an incredibly beautiful sight and said he’s excited that the statue is in the city. He also said the statue has great significance to the city of Newark — at a time when other places around the country are trying to find ways to limit Black visibility and representation in history, literature and books."
That's quite laughable, that the blacks have limited visibility, you can't turn on a screen without seeing them shoot some teacher, or their women twerking in a convenience store, or them beating someone up. Back in the 1950s a book was written about the "plight' of the negro called The Invisible Man, and the protagonist begins the book by claiming no one sees him, that he is an ectoplasm. Of course that is totally ludicrous, the blacks for their entire history on this continent have been all too visible, all too in the forefront of our minds, you can't ignore them, you can't relax around them, they talk loud, they cause a ruckus wherever the go, and they are always doing the moral equivalent of smearing blood in the public square.

By all reasonable accounts Harriet Tubman was an average negro with nothing all that special about her. She may or may not have been involved in helping escaped slaves but if she was it was on a relatively small scale. Everything you read about her is supposed or invented and over time the persona that was created around her took fire and got magnified to heroic status. Indeed as more of the lurid details of Martin Luther King's exotic sex life comes to the fore Tubman will be vaulted even higher. She's impeccable and unimpeachable because there is not historical record related to her.
"Tubman was born into slavery in Maryland and eventually escaped to Pennsylvania. From 1850 to 1860, she made dozens of trips to Maryland to help enslaved people reach freedom through the Underground Railroad, a secret network of routes and safe houses."
That's about where the record begins and where it ends. The "dozens" is surely an exaggeration but those bare bones (more or less) hold up. It's not a lot to hang your hat on but when you're lying through your teeth it's ideal.
"Throughout her pilgrimages, Tubman never lost a passenger nor was captured. She also actively fought for women’s rights and was the first woman to lead an armed military raid during the Civil War, which led to the freeing of more than 750 slaves in South Carolina in 1863. She died in her 90s, exactly 100 years ago, on March 10, 1913, and is buried in Auburn, New York."
Note the word pilgrimages--from the outset they are cooking the books, as if she were a holy person or a saint and, in truth, that's what she's become in the regime's fantasy life at any rate. You can see the way in which the myth grows, it's like a folk tale and adheres to the formulas laid down by that genre. It's not enough for her to perhaps have helped a slave once or twice, no, that would not get them where they want to be going. She has to be outsized and oversized, like a Paul Bunyan of the darkies, she has to have never lost one and never had one captured---never, not one! She was the wonder woman of the pickaninnies she was, and her record was perfect. She was (apparently) part suffragette part bra burner but then comes the whopper to out whopper all whoppers: she was a military genius on par with Patton, she went right out at the head of the ranks and sallied forth blowing the bugle and rattling her saber--and in the process made John Brown look picayune, she wasn't caught or trapped, no, she led nearly a thousand of her fellow blacks into the promised land of freedom. Holy Moses! If this is too good (from their perspective) to be true it's because it's not true, not a scintilla of evidence supports it, but the dynamics of fairy tale and legend nearly demand it. She is a sage, spy, freedom fighter, activists, radical, warrior, and saint all rolled in to one. If it were not so serious it would be hilarious the way people buy into it hook line and sinking. In all honesty the amazing thing is she didn't take us to the moon.

She is the founding lady, many places will say that she slept there, though you can't say that no one ever told a lie about her. Back right in the fevered moment in the wake of George Floyd's heart attack the black emotions were running high and if they were not tearing objects down they were in a frenzy of renaming. On "Juneteempf" of the year 2020 it wasn't a national holiday yet but the negros were feeling their oats and the best target of all was the Whitest dead White male of them all in terms of America.
"Mayor Ras J. Baraka hosted a ceremony today to re-name Washington Park as Harriet Tubman Square and announce plans to create the Newark Arts and Education District, at the square, to mark Juneteenth."
This is about as low as you can go. Unlike Tubman George Washington is embedded in the historical record and he actually did something. This is why it must have satisfied them so much to swap out the name Washington for Tubman, it's like choosing to have chopped liver when you had chateaubriand, but as a humiliation ritual it serves their purpose well. A country that will let such an outrage occur will let anything occur--and that's what they are banking on. The father of our country? The father of racism is more like it they say. He chopped down a cherry tree? We'll chop down his statue, and burn those beds he is said to have slept in. Those are unholy places! The surprising thing is that they settled for the twenty when they could have gone for the marquee one dollar bill--but maybe they are biding their time and reserving that slot for Nat Turner.
"As part of the announcement, the Mayor officially renamed Washington Park as Harriet Tubman Square. Following calls for racial justice and representation in civic public art in 2020, the City issued a public call for designs for a new monument honoring Harriet Tubman and New Jersey’s role in the Underground Railroad to be the new centerpiece for the re-named square, replacing a statue of Christopher Columbus removed by the City in summer 2020."
The summer of 2020 was ground zero for America. It was when the blacks and the Jews of antifa went on a land rush and orgy of destruction. It was when autonomous zones were set up, property destroyed, people killed, statues toppled, lies told, and billions squandered, police precincts overrun. It was when the authorities proved themselves unwilling or incapable of defending us---cowardly and craven they were, truly when the country came a cropper.
"Last year, the park was renamed Harriet Tubman Square, a move that local preservationists questioned given Tubman’s loose connection to Newark compared with George Washington’s during the revolutionary war. Tubman reportedly passed runaway enslaved people through the Presbyterian church in Newark as part of the Underground Railroad."
This misses the point, it assumes fact that are not in evidence, namely that our enemies are acting in good faith and have an abiding concern for decency, appropriateness, measure, or truth. They do not. They are fighting a no holds barred war and for obvious reasons Harriet Tubman is the lady of the hour and suits their purposes to tee. That she has a loose connection to New Jersey, or any place really, goes without saying, her overlap with verifiable historical reality is tenuous, but just at the CIA will treat her as an intrepid spy the Garden State will treat her as their very own daughter and one of their own.
"Today, as Mayor Baraka renames this park in Harriet Tubman’s honor, we, as New Jerseyans, can feel pride in our state’s role in the Underground Railroad. There is no doubt that the effects of slavery's evil continue to ripple through our communities today, making our work to expand opportunity in business, education, and homeownership, and to achieve equity in representation, health outcomes, and much more not just important, but our moral imperative."
The effects of slavery do not ripple anywhere. The big shift in the South starting around 1840 was to treat slavery not as a necessary evil but as a positive good. Taking their cue from John Calhoun they made the unassailable argument that negros under slavery never had it so good. That is, negros came from Africa where no civilization ever darkened their dark door, no light of enlightenment ever shone on the dark continent. And here were negros getting a taste of civilization and manners and proper living. Of course Calhoun's fantasy and fallacy is that the White man should ever have cared one single whit about even the smallest uplift of the negro. Slavery can easily be seen as a humanitarian gesture but just as the negro has no rights the White man need ever respect so to he has no concerns the White man ever should have trifled about. As long as the South could hold the line things were fine but the minute it broke all hell broke loose. The upshot (using slavery as a predicate) is today's onslaught of reparations, equity, "fair housing", and the worship of all things negro. It's got so bad they say it is moral imperative, of all things.

They really are thumping for this Tubman lady, she's all over the place and her star is in the ascendant. She's the ideal negro hero, she didn't do a damn thing worthy of notice but if you listen to her lying press you'd think she was some kind of world historical figure. Jesus, Shakespeare, and Tubman--and not necessarily in that order.
"The Tubman Home was designated a National Historic Landmark on May 30, 1974 and added to the National Register of Historic Places on April 2, 1999. It was later designated Harriet Tubman National Historical Park, under the National Park Service, Department of the Interior, on January 10, 2017."
She is a manufactured icon, decreed by fiat from on high.
"Her current prominence is indisputable. According to the March 2008 Journal of American History, she’s the third most identified African American historical figure (after Martin Luther King Jr., and Rosa Parks). Her image graces a U.S. postage stamp. She is the subject of numerous children’s books and educational materials. Congress is currently studying whether her historic home should be turned into a national park."
Since this time that house is national park and ideologically she has gained even more prominence. By now she has put Rosa Parks in the shade and is breathing down King's neck. They are not going to put no rapist on a twenty note after all. They need a legendary hero on the bill, one that cannot be cut down to size by mere historical research, one who is beyond the reach of honest scholars. One who exists in a sub-twilight zone where morality and justice and right circle about her head like a golden and pure nimbus.
"Several cities have honored Tubman with monuments in recent years, including the CIA headquarters in Langley, Virginia, which unveiled a bronze statue of Tubman in September 2022, along with a 13-foot bronze statue named Becon Of Hope at the Dorchester County Courthouse in Cambridge, Maryland — just a few miles away from Tubman’s birthplace."
She's really popping up all over the place, is she not? She's the Mother Of Our Country they would have you believe.
"Harriet Tubman is an American heroine, but her life story is shrouded in myth and exaggeration. Tubman may be America’s most malleable icon. Misinformation about the Moses of her people abounds. Tubman was illiterate and left no written record of her own, but tales of her heroics, both in rescuing other slaves and serving as a nurse, spy, and scout in the Civil War, have been canonized in biographical narrative, not all of it perfectly true."
Malleable icon and "not perfectly true" is the polite way of putting it. The impolite way is to say that she was a historical nullity who by dint of chance came to be seen as their bonanza in terms of propaganda. She is back enough in time to not have pesky stories about her personal life come to light; she does not strike the terror of a Nat Turner; she is a small woman who seems non threatening on top of whom they can piously pile on stories of valor and courage in a righteous cause. Who could be for slavery after all?
"It’s said that over the next decade she made approximately 19 trips to the eastern shore of Maryland, bringing 300 slaves to freedom and earning the title of the Black Moses. Well, not quite. Kate Clifford Larson, author of another recent scholarly biography of Tubman, puts the number of trips between 11 and 13. Sernett says the documented number of slaves rescued is closer to 70."
If that. But 300 or 70---who cares right? What's a fib and fabrication when you are tearing down White America, the old dream which suddenly seems well within their grasp?
"While she was certainly a nurse, spy, and scout for the Union Army, I think the claims that she was the first female general and commanded a raid are wishful thinking."
You think? You really don't have to be Sherlock Holmes to figure that one out.
"It gradually dawned on me that much of what we as Americans thought we knew about Harriet Tubman was not derived from good historical research but was a perpetuation of a larger-than-life story. The symbol had overpowered the life, had overshadowed the historical person."
It gradually dawned on me that every power in this country is dead set to destroy the Old America and create a new one in their image. It has been happening for a long time and then (as in 2020) it suddenly speeds up but the trend is always towards destruction. What's in a name you might say? Washington? Tubman? But the name is everything of course as is the icon at the center of the park. When they get rid of all that is White and noble and replace it with all that is black and mean and spurious future people who go to that park will learn the lesson well. Why, indeed, caught up in the fantasy and the fallacy, they might actually believe the tenuous tales of Tubman they are told and in a fit of fancy actually dream that her toof is marching on.

If there was a hero of the conquest who might have killed an Indian or two, if there was a Prairie Pioneer who wanted black people out of the West, if there was a Plantation Owner, or a Northerner who didn't cotton to abolition, or a Politician who said that America was created on the White basis and must ever remain so, if there was a President who bemoaned White race suicide, if there was a writer who didn't like negros, if there is roadside maker which said this was the beginning of White civilization in those parts, if there is a memorial or marker or statue to any of these the Mellon Monuments Project will be sure to be on the spot and have them in their database-cum-shit list. And then they will lobby for them to be torn down until they are torn down.
"Baraka called the statue an incredibly beautiful sight and said he’s excited that the statue is in the city. He also said the statue has great significance to the city of Newark — at a time when other places around the country are trying to find ways to limit Black visibility and representation in history, literature and books."
That's quite laughable, that the blacks have limited visibility, you can't turn on a screen without seeing them shoot some teacher, or their women twerking in a convenience store, or them beating someone up. Back in the 1950s a book was written about the "plight' of the negro called The Invisible Man, and the protagonist begins the book by claiming no one sees him, that he is an ectoplasm. Of course that is totally ludicrous, the blacks for their entire history on this continent have been all too visible, all too in the forefront of our minds, you can't ignore them, you can't relax around them, they talk loud, they cause a ruckus wherever the go, and they are always doing the moral equivalent of smearing blood in the public square.

By all reasonable accounts Harriet Tubman was an average negro with nothing all that special about her. She may or may not have been involved in helping escaped slaves but if she was it was on a relatively small scale. Everything you read about her is supposed or invented and over time the persona that was created around her took fire and got magnified to heroic status. Indeed as more of the lurid details of Martin Luther King's exotic sex life comes to the fore Tubman will be vaulted even higher. She's impeccable and unimpeachable because there is not historical record related to her.
"Tubman was born into slavery in Maryland and eventually escaped to Pennsylvania. From 1850 to 1860, she made dozens of trips to Maryland to help enslaved people reach freedom through the Underground Railroad, a secret network of routes and safe houses."
That's about where the record begins and where it ends. The "dozens" is surely an exaggeration but those bare bones (more or less) hold up. It's not a lot to hang your hat on but when you're lying through your teeth it's ideal.
"Throughout her pilgrimages, Tubman never lost a passenger nor was captured. She also actively fought for women’s rights and was the first woman to lead an armed military raid during the Civil War, which led to the freeing of more than 750 slaves in South Carolina in 1863. She died in her 90s, exactly 100 years ago, on March 10, 1913, and is buried in Auburn, New York."
Note the word pilgrimages--from the outset they are cooking the books, as if she were a holy person or a saint and, in truth, that's what she's become in the regime's fantasy life at any rate. You can see the way in which the myth grows, it's like a folk tale and adheres to the formulas laid down by that genre. It's not enough for her to perhaps have helped a slave once or twice, no, that would not get them where they want to be going. She has to be outsized and oversized, like a Paul Bunyan of the darkies, she has to have never lost one and never had one captured---never, not one! She was the wonder woman of the pickaninnies she was, and her record was perfect. She was (apparently) part suffragette part bra burner but then comes the whopper to out whopper all whoppers: she was a military genius on par with Patton, she went right out at the head of the ranks and sallied forth blowing the bugle and rattling her saber--and in the process made John Brown look picayune, she wasn't caught or trapped, no, she led nearly a thousand of her fellow blacks into the promised land of freedom. Holy Moses! If this is too good (from their perspective) to be true it's because it's not true, not a scintilla of evidence supports it, but the dynamics of fairy tale and legend nearly demand it. She is a sage, spy, freedom fighter, activists, radical, warrior, and saint all rolled in to one. If it were not so serious it would be hilarious the way people buy into it hook line and sinking. In all honesty the amazing thing is she didn't take us to the moon.

She is the founding lady, many places will say that she slept there, though you can't say that no one ever told a lie about her. Back right in the fevered moment in the wake of George Floyd's heart attack the black emotions were running high and if they were not tearing objects down they were in a frenzy of renaming. On "Juneteempf" of the year 2020 it wasn't a national holiday yet but the negros were feeling their oats and the best target of all was the Whitest dead White male of them all in terms of America.
"Mayor Ras J. Baraka hosted a ceremony today to re-name Washington Park as Harriet Tubman Square and announce plans to create the Newark Arts and Education District, at the square, to mark Juneteenth."
This is about as low as you can go. Unlike Tubman George Washington is embedded in the historical record and he actually did something. This is why it must have satisfied them so much to swap out the name Washington for Tubman, it's like choosing to have chopped liver when you had chateaubriand, but as a humiliation ritual it serves their purpose well. A country that will let such an outrage occur will let anything occur--and that's what they are banking on. The father of our country? The father of racism is more like it they say. He chopped down a cherry tree? We'll chop down his statue, and burn those beds he is said to have slept in. Those are unholy places! The surprising thing is that they settled for the twenty when they could have gone for the marquee one dollar bill--but maybe they are biding their time and reserving that slot for Nat Turner.
"As part of the announcement, the Mayor officially renamed Washington Park as Harriet Tubman Square. Following calls for racial justice and representation in civic public art in 2020, the City issued a public call for designs for a new monument honoring Harriet Tubman and New Jersey’s role in the Underground Railroad to be the new centerpiece for the re-named square, replacing a statue of Christopher Columbus removed by the City in summer 2020."
The summer of 2020 was ground zero for America. It was when the blacks and the Jews of antifa went on a land rush and orgy of destruction. It was when autonomous zones were set up, property destroyed, people killed, statues toppled, lies told, and billions squandered, police precincts overrun. It was when the authorities proved themselves unwilling or incapable of defending us---cowardly and craven they were, truly when the country came a cropper.
"Last year, the park was renamed Harriet Tubman Square, a move that local preservationists questioned given Tubman’s loose connection to Newark compared with George Washington’s during the revolutionary war. Tubman reportedly passed runaway enslaved people through the Presbyterian church in Newark as part of the Underground Railroad."
This misses the point, it assumes fact that are not in evidence, namely that our enemies are acting in good faith and have an abiding concern for decency, appropriateness, measure, or truth. They do not. They are fighting a no holds barred war and for obvious reasons Harriet Tubman is the lady of the hour and suits their purposes to tee. That she has a loose connection to New Jersey, or any place really, goes without saying, her overlap with verifiable historical reality is tenuous, but just at the CIA will treat her as an intrepid spy the Garden State will treat her as their very own daughter and one of their own.
"Today, as Mayor Baraka renames this park in Harriet Tubman’s honor, we, as New Jerseyans, can feel pride in our state’s role in the Underground Railroad. There is no doubt that the effects of slavery's evil continue to ripple through our communities today, making our work to expand opportunity in business, education, and homeownership, and to achieve equity in representation, health outcomes, and much more not just important, but our moral imperative."
The effects of slavery do not ripple anywhere. The big shift in the South starting around 1840 was to treat slavery not as a necessary evil but as a positive good. Taking their cue from John Calhoun they made the unassailable argument that negros under slavery never had it so good. That is, negros came from Africa where no civilization ever darkened their dark door, no light of enlightenment ever shone on the dark continent. And here were negros getting a taste of civilization and manners and proper living. Of course Calhoun's fantasy and fallacy is that the White man should ever have cared one single whit about even the smallest uplift of the negro. Slavery can easily be seen as a humanitarian gesture but just as the negro has no rights the White man need ever respect so to he has no concerns the White man ever should have trifled about. As long as the South could hold the line things were fine but the minute it broke all hell broke loose. The upshot (using slavery as a predicate) is today's onslaught of reparations, equity, "fair housing", and the worship of all things negro. It's got so bad they say it is moral imperative, of all things.

They really are thumping for this Tubman lady, she's all over the place and her star is in the ascendant. She's the ideal negro hero, she didn't do a damn thing worthy of notice but if you listen to her lying press you'd think she was some kind of world historical figure. Jesus, Shakespeare, and Tubman--and not necessarily in that order.
"The Tubman Home was designated a National Historic Landmark on May 30, 1974 and added to the National Register of Historic Places on April 2, 1999. It was later designated Harriet Tubman National Historical Park, under the National Park Service, Department of the Interior, on January 10, 2017."
She is a manufactured icon, decreed by fiat from on high.
"Her current prominence is indisputable. According to the March 2008 Journal of American History, she’s the third most identified African American historical figure (after Martin Luther King Jr., and Rosa Parks). Her image graces a U.S. postage stamp. She is the subject of numerous children’s books and educational materials. Congress is currently studying whether her historic home should be turned into a national park."
Since this time that house is national park and ideologically she has gained even more prominence. By now she has put Rosa Parks in the shade and is breathing down King's neck. They are not going to put no rapist on a twenty note after all. They need a legendary hero on the bill, one that cannot be cut down to size by mere historical research, one who is beyond the reach of honest scholars. One who exists in a sub-twilight zone where morality and justice and right circle about her head like a golden and pure nimbus.
"Several cities have honored Tubman with monuments in recent years, including the CIA headquarters in Langley, Virginia, which unveiled a bronze statue of Tubman in September 2022, along with a 13-foot bronze statue named Becon Of Hope at the Dorchester County Courthouse in Cambridge, Maryland — just a few miles away from Tubman’s birthplace."
She's really popping up all over the place, is she not? She's the Mother Of Our Country they would have you believe.
"Harriet Tubman is an American heroine, but her life story is shrouded in myth and exaggeration. Tubman may be America’s most malleable icon. Misinformation about the Moses of her people abounds. Tubman was illiterate and left no written record of her own, but tales of her heroics, both in rescuing other slaves and serving as a nurse, spy, and scout in the Civil War, have been canonized in biographical narrative, not all of it perfectly true."
Malleable icon and "not perfectly true" is the polite way of putting it. The impolite way is to say that she was a historical nullity who by dint of chance came to be seen as their bonanza in terms of propaganda. She is back enough in time to not have pesky stories about her personal life come to light; she does not strike the terror of a Nat Turner; she is a small woman who seems non threatening on top of whom they can piously pile on stories of valor and courage in a righteous cause. Who could be for slavery after all?
"It’s said that over the next decade she made approximately 19 trips to the eastern shore of Maryland, bringing 300 slaves to freedom and earning the title of the Black Moses. Well, not quite. Kate Clifford Larson, author of another recent scholarly biography of Tubman, puts the number of trips between 11 and 13. Sernett says the documented number of slaves rescued is closer to 70."
If that. But 300 or 70---who cares right? What's a fib and fabrication when you are tearing down White America, the old dream which suddenly seems well within their grasp?
"While she was certainly a nurse, spy, and scout for the Union Army, I think the claims that she was the first female general and commanded a raid are wishful thinking."
You think? You really don't have to be Sherlock Holmes to figure that one out.
"It gradually dawned on me that much of what we as Americans thought we knew about Harriet Tubman was not derived from good historical research but was a perpetuation of a larger-than-life story. The symbol had overpowered the life, had overshadowed the historical person."
It gradually dawned on me that every power in this country is dead set to destroy the Old America and create a new one in their image. It has been happening for a long time and then (as in 2020) it suddenly speeds up but the trend is always towards destruction. What's in a name you might say? Washington? Tubman? But the name is everything of course as is the icon at the center of the park. When they get rid of all that is White and noble and replace it with all that is black and mean and spurious future people who go to that park will learn the lesson well. Why, indeed, caught up in the fantasy and the fallacy, they might actually believe the tenuous tales of Tubman they are told and in a fit of fancy actually dream that her toof is marching on.
