Racist song...

[Hiro Protaganist]

One of everyone's favorite christmas songs is really a representation of a long standing prejudice. Its called "White Christmas" In reality the song was sung in the song by wealthy plantation owners while they flogged slaves. (Around the time of christmas) I beleive it should be destroyed to stop any further damage to the african-american holiday celebration.

Good luck if that's actually going to happen. Grin and bare it like everything else that pisses people off.

Either that or your really paranoid. Where's your proof?

I won't stand this degrading of the african-american culture anymoe, the original lyrics had notes on them sting that all the "niggers were gona die" The family that now owns the original has roots in the KLuKlux Klan and has it hidden away.

White Christmas was written by Irving Berlin in 1941 for the 1942 film, Holiday Inn, about an inn that was only open on public holidays.

Thank you. Try again.

No, You Try again, Mr. Berlin found the original song ad toned it down to make it seem to be about inns and snow.

I'm a "Black" as you state it scholar, I've been researching this for months, I even attempted a visit to the white family that owns the song, only to be chased off with threats of getting " My ***** a** shot"

[LadyLeviathan]

wheres your proof prove it to us

[Andromache]

Then kindly point us to proof that this is true, sir.

Preferably newspaper articles. Not urban legends told by a friend of a friend of a friend.

Then find the source of the "original" song and present it to us. Otherwise we'll call you a bloody racist for inferring that we're racists to enjoy a song about Christmas. surprised
