Black Talk Radio News w/ Scotty Reid

BTR News - As the family separation policy of the US government concerning refugee children is being debated, should we also be debating whether certain types of children should be separated from certain types of parents and sent to facilities to be re-programmed?

Juneteenth is a cultural observance in the United States that is officially recognized in 48 states. Critics argue that while meaning no disrespect to the hundreds of thousand or so who actively take part in local "celebrations" sadly it is based on a widely propagated myth that the United States and the individual coalition of states making up "USA" have at any time in their collective history completely abolished slavery or involuntary servitude.

Critics say large numbers of people supported by government and corporations are helping to continue to play a cruel joke over and over against the memories of the first victims of slavery to which it was told.

A reading of the historical record irrefutably reveals that while private citizens could no longer engage openly in slavery, corporations could contract with the federal and state government for the labor of the millions of recently emancipated victims of slavery who fell then fell victim to the 13th Amendment of the US Constitution which led to Jim Crow laws also known as "Black Codes" and enforced with the intent to practice slavery under the guise of being tough on crime.

BTR News - There has been a lot of MSM coverage of the Trump administration's mistreatment of migrant children, however, why has there not been an equal amount of coverage of the mistreatment of American children in detention facilities? It seems the partisans in American media are only pushing the story about migrant children in detention because they can use it to attack Donald Trump and they really don't give two cents about any children unless they can use them for their own political agendas.

BTR News - After Donald Trump met with Kim Jung Un, the leader of North Korea, in Singapore to jump-start a peace process between the two nuclear-armed nations, reactions to the historic meeting were mixed and fell along partisan lines. Those who criticized Barack Obama for starting an initiative to normalize relations with Cuba displayed a bit of hypocrisy as they applauded Trump's meeting with Kim Jung Un and those who applauded Obama for his actions were quick to criticize Trump for similar actions.

Trump's American critics were often questioning North Korea's human rights record and if it should first agree to the denuclearization of the Korean peninsula. Again this is very hypocritical when the United States supports and arms despotic regimes in Saudi Arabia, Israel, and other countries in the middle east. In fact, as Israel murders and maims thousands of unarmed protesters in the Right To Return marches that have taken place in Gaza, it was the United States ambassador who vetoed a UN resolution calling for an independent investigation into the killings and shootings.

Furthermore, the United States does not and has never had a stellar human rights record when it comes to the treatment of Native Americans, Black Americans and other non-white people in the nation. In fact, the United States still practices slavery through its prisons with the largest prison population in the world, its police are regularly seen killing, beating and otherwise abusing citizens, not to mention the abuse of children in many of the detention facilities. The UN just days ago cited the US for separating children from their parents when they cross the border illegally. We could go on naming all the human rights abuses that occur in the United States but the point is, people who live in glasses houses should not throw stones or as the scripture says, let him who is without sin cast the first stone. Apparently, American media punditry is full of hypocrites with a pocket full of rocks ready to throw.

If the United States would stop meddling in other nation's affairs, stop overthrowing nations like they did Libya, stop supporting military coups like they did in Honduras and focused on solving its own myriad of problems, then perhaps the world would be a less violent world in which to live.
