ON TONI MORRISON'S BIRTHDAY, FOX COMMENTERS EXPRESS QUITE A BIT OF "ECONOMIC ANXIETY"

Today would have been the 92nd bithday of the Nobel Prize-winning author Toni Morrison, who died in 2019. There's a commemoration of Morrison on the Fox News website that's fairly respectful of the author and her works.

The commenters, however, show a lot less respect:
Only good news she’s dead

****

Toni Morrison - never heard of her.

****

Yes you have, she sang for The Doors...

****

I've always contended that she is more of an affirmative action read. But she is very popular with virtue signalers.

****

Only ten more days 'til the end of BHM.
(Black History Month.)
Then we have to hear about gays for a month.

****

They should be able to take out at least a hundred more of their "brothers" by then.

****

Meanwhile, 90% of people are like....who?

****

More like 99.99%.

****

No, she was never a 'household name', as stated by the article.

****

if she had been, she likely would have been canceled, like Aunt Jemaima!

****

You weren't alive during her time. Nor were you alive during slavery. Let's move on, can we?

****

Unfortunately, One has to Wonder if She actually Achieved her acclaim do to her Talent or her Skin Color.

Thank The Make Believe People for Equality of Outcome which You Always have to Question Now.

Shalom, My Sista.

****

In that one picture she looks similar to Aunt Jemima that was removed from the syrup label because it was demeaning to blacks.

****

How can this be?

We are being told and our children taught that white privilege prevents blacks (especially women) from achieving anything in life?

****

On this day in history in 1861, Confederate President Jefferson Davis was inaugurated in Montgomery, Alabama.

****

A Democrat who started the Civil War set up a concentration camp giving the command to a German immigrant named Wirz. Then when Jeff was captured, he was wearing women's clothing! LOL

It seems the Democrats have not changed that much!

****

How about a Swampy Washington Democrat who married a Democrat President's daughter who started the War Between the States. I'd accept that characterization. Aren't you proud that the US Republicans hustled the first Jewish Cabinet secretary in North America out of town forever as a result? Republicans sent the democrat jew Judah Benjamin back to England (where he was elected an MP)?

Oh, so history isn't really your strength?

****

When Morrison was about two years old, her family's landlord set fire to the house in which they lived, while they were home, because her parents could not afford to pay rent. Her family responded to what she called this "bizarre form of evil" by laughing at the landlord rather than falling into despair. Morrison later said her family's response demonstrated how to keep your integrity and claim your own life in the face of acts of such "monumental crudeness.

****

No source == Lie. Morrison wasn't even old enough to remember this. It's someone else's lie ABOUT her.

****

Please provide documented proof of this assertion. Thank you.

****

In today's example of "never happened"
(The story appears in a 1993 Washington Post profile of Morrison, in which she doesn't claim to remember the fire, but recalls being told about it. A 2003 New Yorker profile says the home was an apartment.)
Should it be toast or a bagel this am? Toast is good with a good grape jelly but im thinking cream cheese with the bagel. Any thoughts?

****

The Philly Cheesesteak is one iconic, tasty sandwich.

****

On this day in history my great grandpa had the hiccups.

****

,,,I remain hopeful to have a cheese, onion, bacon omelette this morning, if my wife accommodates me.,,.

****

Wife?.... Not Baby Mama? How dare you!

****

In short, a black woman wrote a book.

****

She learned to read and wrote a book.

That’s nice.

****

They have to fill Black History Month with something.

****

This has been a public service announcement from Woke FoxisDisney

****

Yet another oppressed black militant who has fought a lifetime of racism, and yet managed to win a Nobel Prize and Pulitzer Prize and earned a few million on the side....America is truly the land of opportunity FOR ALL!!

****

Has to be kinda embarrassing fir the Africans as this is the best they can come up with to fill the giant void of black history month

****

blacks never got to the wheel. what do you expect?

****

Quota article?

****

When is it OJ's turn for Black History month recognition ?

****

The black race trots out these halfies and octoroons and claim some type of accomplishment?

If they are not railhead blue gums, then you have nothing!

****

Not my culture.

****

blm terrorist month filler material... tomorrow will be a review of morris day and the time...

****

Who? Does she know who her daddy is?

****

she’s not an american.
I understand that many people don't read literary fiction and don't understand why they should care about it. But I'm reasonably certain that there wouldn't be this kind of nastiness if Fox decided to commemorate the birthday of, say, John Updike.

This is the Republican voter base. Every day these people are told which groups and individuals aren't worthy of being treated as humans, and they've now internalized a very long list of those who are deemed unworthy. We can't reach these people. We can only try to outvote them.
