A friend of mine is a Cleveland cop. He’s white, and the area he serves is black. Judging from what you hear on the news, you might expect he now faces a hostile population.
But exactly the opposite is the case. The blacks in his patrol area have responded to recent attacks on the police for shootings of young black males not with “rage”, but with an outpouring of support for the cops. My friend told me that he and his colleagues get smiles, waves, people stopping to thank them for being there, even offers of bottles of water and invitations to come in the house on cold nights for some coffee. He said he has never seen any of this before. Some blacks have even said to him, “We know the problems isn’t you, it’s us.”
A couple dozen blacks from Ferguson, Missouri, came to Cleveland to demonstrate, march, and try to stir up the kind of violence that has burned down much of their own town. They were not well received here. When they marched through the housing projects, Cleveland blacks came out to curse them and told them to go home. The fact that some of the “peaceful” demonstrators were using bullhorns to call for killing cops may have had something to do with their reception.
Seen rationally, none of this should be a surprise. Most victims of black crime are black. The honest blacks who live in the inner city need police protection more than most whites do. It’s logical they should support the cops. Demonstrators from Ferguson represent violence that loots and burns black communities, not the white ones. Many of the destroyed businesses are minority owned; in Ferguson they even torched a black church. The people who live in black neighborhoods need those shops and stores. Who wants to burn down his own place?
But when we look at these responses from blacks in the context of present-day politics, they are remarkable. Ordinary people have seen through the endless culturally Marxist propaganda that always portrays blacks as helpless victims and whites, especially white cops, as oppressors. What politicians and the press recognize as blacks’ leaders live off this game, some quite richly. Ordinary blacks are supposed to reflect their leaders’ carefully cultivated “rage.” Over and over they are told that cops, especially white cops, are their enemies.
In Cleveland at least, reality in beginning to defeat ideology. People are seeing through the con game. Blacks are just as capable of perceiving their interests as anyone else. The highest of all interests is safety. In Cleveland’s inner city as elsewhere, safety comes from the police. They can protect honest people, black and white, more effectively when they are welcomed and supported by the community. So here at least, the black community is welcoming and supporting them.
This is an awakening of potentially vast importance. It could lead to a new black politics wherein blacks themselves clean up their own communities, in cooperation with the police and whoever else is willing to help. Instead of playing the “civil rights” game where blacks’ message is always the same — “We’re victims who demand you to solve our problems” — blacks would instead turn to the message of Booker T. Washington, who called for American blacks to show that they can perform at the same level as whites and take care of themselves.
The outpouring of support for our cops from Cleveland’s blacks show that the base for change is there. But if it is to happen, it requires a new and very different black leadership. The new leadership must be about reality, not ideology. Its goal must be a safe and prosperous blacks community, not personal power and enrichment of the leaders. It will be difficult for such new leadership to emerge, because the white culturally Marxist Establishment will try to stop it. It is quite happy with the present situation, where blacks are a club to be used to beat whites with endless charges of “racism.” But if new, realistic leadership can emerge, we might see a black awakening that would bring vast benefits to American blacks and whites alike. 
Happened like that here in Detroit too. Black cop shot another black man and activists tried stirring the people up. It, of course, failed. Why? Because blacks know the deal in the inner city. You do something stupid like try attack a cop. You gonna get shot. All there is to that one. Blacks aren’t stupid they know the deal man…
You apparently also have different cops and courts in Cleveland:

This is some version of 4GW – won at the moral level.
Maybe Ferguson, MO and Cleveland, OH should switch police forces and see what happens.
Look, I don’t mean to say Bill’s friend the Cleveland cop is full of it, but perhaps he’s right because blacks in Cleveland are different than blacks everywhere else. The fact of the matter is that Mr. Lind has stated many times on both “Modern War” and “Next Revolution” as well as here that the most enduring loyalties are blood, god or gods and neighborhood. Blacks will always side with other blacks because they ARE black. Period. If there was a black “awakening”, they wouldn’t vote 95-98% Democrat, would they?
The idea that blacks would act in a rational fashion and reject “the brothers” that were violent, corrupt or incompetent is absurd. Cities like Detroilet, Philly, Camden, etc. ad nauseam that are ruled by blacks are absolute disasters for the blacks that live in them. They continue to vote for the same “brothers” time after time because they ARE brothers.
Any kind of fantasy about the “good blacks” ousting the “bad blacks” is exactly that – a fantasy. Blood is thicker than water.
“Blood is thicker than water.”
Hopefully Europeans begin to take note.
They can’t. It’s illegal in Amerikwa.
I agree with the article. A new Booker T Washington could save black America from the cultural Marxists. He would face many pitfalls – not just opposition/silencing from the cultural Marxists. He would have to stay completely independent of the Republican party*, which would seek to co-opt him, and avoid the trap of classical liberal race blindness. He would have to be ‘of the blacks, for the blacks’ – but without the hatred of whites seen in standard black nationalism. He would in fact have to be willing to criticise whites where necessary (especially cultural Marxist whites, but also big-business whites whose open immigration policies hurt blacks), but of course he would have to criticise blacks more.
*Realistically, if he ran for office it would have to be as a Democrat, at least a bluedog type. He might be better to avoid politics though.
Beavercreek OH (near Dayton) residents probably hear different – as the video in the article shows.

As long as people look upon each other strictly with their skin colour, you are absolutley right. Good blacks will never oust bad blacks, just like good whites will never oust bad whites.
You’re right! And if we all see each other as equals, we’ll all share with each other and we’ll live in total equality and government will just wither away because we’ll become so good at loving each other! Do you have any other childish fantasies you’d like to share with us, ChaJ?
Who said anything about being equal?
Let me guess, your childish fantasy is to instigate hatred towards each other because you believe your people are supreme. Let’s go back few decades in time! Awesome! That will get you to high attainment .
All I was trying to point out is that just like Blacks support blacks, white will support whites, it is human nature.
As traditionalist it is important to concentrate on the real problems; cultural Marxism, moral degeneration, etc. that our society faces not to achieve utopia.
You cannot further the Brotherhood of Man by encouraging class hatred.

I think you might be reading the wrong website if you’re looking for a “brotherhood of man”.
even brothers have their own separate houses
Bill Cosby seems to promote personal responsibility for blacks. I guess that means he must be a racist or rapist or one of those. Maybe using a dead man as an icon like Booker T. Washington is a good idea. Seems to work for Saint MLK. And what will they do, say a black hero owned slaves? Maybe Chic-fil-A can sell a Booker Bucket of fried chicken to get things going.
