Protest calls out white silence after Confederate flag towel displayed on Evanston beach

LaShandra Smith-Rayfield took a video confronting a man for hanging up his Confederate flag towel at Lighthouse Beach Wednesday. About 300 people gathered Friday to protest.

Just as problematic as the Confederate flag towel at an Evanston beach Wednesday, LaShandra Smith-Rayfield said, were the beach-goers who didn’t speak up about it.

“Me speaking out against hatred does not make me anti-patriotic,” Smith-Rayfield said at a protest Friday. “It actually makes me patriotic. ... Every person on that beach walked past it. In my video, you can see people walk on past it. Why is it okay to walk on past it?”

Friday, more than 300 people circled around Smith-Rayfield, gathering at a protest outside Lighthouse Beach in North Evanston Friday. Smith-Rayfield and other organizers called out other people at the beach Wednesday who didn’t take action when a white man at the beach hung a Confederate flag towel on the fence, as well as people who stay silent in the face of racism.

On Wednesday, a beach goer set up camp at Lighthouse Beach and hung a towel displaying a Confederate flag on the fence. Photos of the towel hit social media, and when Smith-Rayfield saw, she got in her car, drove to the beach and called the man out, demanding he take down the Confederate flag. She streamed the encounter in a video on Facebook Live. The video also shows an African-American man who engaged in the argument and identified himself as a veteran.

The man, who asked to remain unnamed out of fear for his safety, told the Sun-Times he didn’t get to finish what he was saying in the video. He said he served in the military so people could have a “right to have a different opinion.” If the men with the flag would have started attacking Smith-Rayfield, the man said he would have defended her as well.

The man said he disagreed with the symbol and even intentionally sat next to the group with the Confederate flag, hoping to have a conversation with them about why the flag is wrong.

“I was going to do it discreetly,” he said. “All I did was defend their right to have a different idea.”

He said they eventually agreed to remove the flag at his request; one can be seen shaking his hand in the video.

Candice Shakur, her husband Abdel and their kids Lucille, Benjamin and Sunny attend a racial justice rally at Lighthouse Beach.

Smith-Rayfield deleted the video Thursday because of internet trolls calling her a terrorist and making threats, she told the Sun-Times Friday.

At the protest, Smith-Rayfield told white attendees they need to “be brave for thirty seconds” and call out racism when they see it.

“We’re all capable,” Smith-Rayfield told the Sun-Times. “I’m not different from anyone here.”

Smith-Rayfield, who’s been an educator for two decades, said she and others are preparing a curriculum to send out to better educate the community about racism and how to be anti-racist. In the year 2020, she said there shouldn’t be a “white beach” anymore, a reputation some say Lighthouse Beach has.

Khari Rayfield, 19, one of Smith-Rayfield’s four children, spoke at the protest, calling out the unjust deaths of Tamir Rice, George Floyd, Breonna Taylor and others at the hands of police. Rayfield said these people all “fit the description” simply because of the color of their skin. So do her brothers, sister, mother, father, cousins, Rayfield said.

“I fit the description,” Rayfield said. “I don’t want to be the next hashtag. I don’t want anyone over here to be the next hashtag.”

Atena Danner closed out the rally by singing “Feeling Good” by Nina Simone, a civil rights activist. Danner told the Sun-Times that she chose the song because the racial injustice “suck the life and joy out of you.” With her song, Danner said she wants to help reenergize their joy. People then marched on the beach in groups of 50 in protest.

Evanston Mayor Steve Hagerty, who came to the protest after it started after attending a pandemic task force meeting, first posted on social media calling the incident “fake news” before he saw Smith-Rayfield’s video and walked further down the beach to find her account to be true. He posted a second time apologizing and praising Smith-Rayfield’s bravery.

City lawyers are looking into ordinances that could prohibit displaying any sign of hate on public property, Hagerty told the Sun-Times.

“We don’t want to hinder speech,” Hagerty said. “But we don’t want hate speech on our public property.”

Jiana Belton, 45, has lived in Evanston for 23 years. As a Black mother, she attended Friday’s protest because there is still systemic division in the schools and neighborhoods, Belton said.

The racism goes farther than the beach, Belton said, manifesting in unequal punishment of students of color at schools and racism in policing.

“We’re exhausted,” Belton said. “We want the same thing white people want, for our families to be able to enjoy a day at the beach.”

REAL REPORTING ON WHAT'S HAPPENING IN OUR CITIES

“Rioting” no longer describes what is happening on our streets—no, our great cities are under siege.

Nowhere is this more clear than the striking photos and videos that came out of Portland this week. For over 50 days, the Leftist mob has gathered night after night to spread fear, intimidate dissenters, and attack personal and Federal property.

The Mark O. Hatfield U.S. Courthouse has been ground zero for their lawlessness. Protesting is not leaving graffiti, starting fires, and throwing bricks. This is not how democracy works.

The real story is getting buried by the mainstream media. But there are good journalists out there doing the work to document the chaos and violence. Check out some serious reporting on the Portland riots:

The Left

THE LEFT ISN’T TRYING TO FIX AMERICA—THEY ARE TRYING TO CANCEL HER

Whether it be The New York Times' “1619 Project” or the mobs tearing down statues of George Washington and Abraham Lincoln, it’s clear that Liberals want to erase our history so we forget what America stands for.

But grassroots conservatives are fighting for America—and some of our elected leaders are too. To expose the Left’s blatant hypocrisy, Rep. Louie Gohmert (R-TX) introduced legislation banning the Democratic party from Congress and requiring them to change their name.

Why? Because according to Gohmert, "A great portion of the history of the Democratic Party is filled with racism and hatred. To avoid triggering innocent bystanders by the racist past of the Democratic Party, I would suggest they change their name. That is the standard to which they are holding everyone else, so the name change needs to occur."

It will take more than a resolution to preserve America. But winning on the policy and messaging fights is an important part of shaping our society.

Insulting? California lowering bar exam standards in order to pass more minority lawyers7 Comments

A rather insulting headline:

The article in the LA Times states the California Supreme Court agreed to lower the passing score for the exam, a victory for law school deans who have long hoped the change would raise the number of Black and Latino people practicing law.

UCLA School of Law Dean Jennifer L. Mnookin, a longtime supporter of lowering the passing score said, “There is absolutely no evidence that shows having a higher score makes for better lawyers. There is significant evidence that it reduces the diversity of the bar.”

And of course: “Whether the exam is culturally biased has been a question for law journals over the years, and critics have written that it fails to measure the real abilities required to be good lawyers.”

Read the whole article here.

When one seeks an attorney they may base their decision on if the person is a member of the “diversity” team. Or they may seek one through recommendations, legal expertise/area of practice and their “win” record. But that’s just my white-privileged opinion.

The Case of Dred Scott

Paul Craig Roberts

Never before have I seen the case of Dred Scott as completely and accurately presented as John Remington Graham presents it in his monograph, Blood Money: The Civil War and the Federal Reserve ( www.turningthetidepublishing.com ), republished below with permission.

Dred Scott was a slave who belonged to a United States Army officer, an army surgeon, John Emerson. In 1834 Emerson took Scott with him when assigned duty at Fort Snelling, which was located in Wisconsin Territory, a part of the Louisiana Purchase where slavery had been prohibited by the Missouri Compromise of 1820.

Under established law and precedent at the time, law and precedent acknowledged and upheld by southern courts, an owner who took his slave into a non-slave area was regarded as having freed the slave. Dred Scott loved Dr. Emerson and did not press his case until years after Dr. Emerson’s death.

This is what NYC looks like under de Blasio’s watch: 176% increase in shootings last week, compared to last year

Posted on July 29, 2020 by DCG | Leave a comment

As I previously stated, when you have demorat “leaders” who support lawlessness, defunding the police and “criminal justice reform,” you can expect no consequences for illegal behaviors. And you can expect more of them.

Such as this, from NY Post: “NYC’s 47 shootings last week are 176 percent increase since last year.”

Last week the city had 47 shootings compared with 17 during the same time period the year before. The 47 shootings included 14 murders. You can read all the shooting details in the link above.

The good mayor supported defunding the NYPD by $1 billion so don’t expect more resources to be put in place to address this uptick in violence.

Good luck, NYC. You’re going to need it.

Something’s rotten at the Supreme Court

By Andrea Widburg

Justice Gorsuch wrote a one-paragraph dissent attacking the Supreme Court’s decision to reject a Nevada church’s emergency application. The application sought an injunction stopping the Governor of Nevada from shutting down meaningful church services, even as he allowed vast assemblies at casinos, movie theaters, and other secular sites. What should be more important than a pithy dissent, though, is the Supreme Court’s – and, more specifically, Chief Justice Robert’s -- appalling behavior. It is another reminder of how desperately important it is to return President Trump to the White House.

Calvary Chapel contends that, in response to the Wuhan virus, Governor Sisolak issued Directive 21. This directive

allows large groups to assemble in close quarters for unlimited periods at casinos, gyms, restaurants, bars, indoor amusements parks, bowling alleys, water parks, pools, arcades, and more subject only to a 50%-fire-code-capacity limit.

MIKE DITKAAGAINST KNEELERS IN NEW FOOTBALL LEAGUE... 'Get The Hell Outta The Country'

EXCLUSIVE

TMZSports.com

Mike Ditka says anthem kneeling protests are unpatriotic ... and the NFL legend tells TMZ Sports if he had it his way, he wouldn't allow the demonstrations in his new women's football league.

The Hall of Famer is slated to be the chairman of the X League -- a women's tackle football org. that was previously known as the Legends Football League -- and when we asked him if he'd be OK with protests during the national anthem, he straight-up said no.

"If you can't respect our national anthem, get the hell out of the country," Ditka said. "That's the way I feel. Of course, I'm old fashioned, so I'm only going to say what I feel."

Colin Kaepernick and others have said the kneeling protests have nothing to do with military or the flag ... they've continuously claimed the demonstrations are all about raising awareness for social justice and police brutality in America.

Some high-profile people like Drew Brees have changed their stance on the anthem in light of recent events -- including the death of George Floyd.

But, Ditka says he's sticking to his guns -- claiming he views kneeling as a slap in the face to the red, white and blue.

"You don't protest against the flag and you don't protest against this country who's given you the opportunities to make a living playing a sport that you never thought would happen," Ditka says. "So, I don't want to hear all the crap."

Ditka says he does NOT have the final say when it comes to the league's national anthem policy -- these are just his personal feelings.

As for the league itself, Ditka believes it has HUGE potential -- featuring a bunch of truly talented female athletes "knocking the crap out of each other."

Ditka's new league, which will feature 8 teams in major markets like L.A., Chicago and Seattle, is slated to kick off in April 2021.

"These women are pretty and good looking and want to knock the crap out of each other -- we'll see how it works!"
