The Noise Does Not Like Joy Reid's Reality Checks!

Joy Reid angers the far right when she addressed Thanksgiving.

Republican senate candidate Hershel Walker, Black extremist Stacy Washington, many on the far right and Fox are angry over MSNBC agitator Joy Ann L. Reid telling viewers that the origins of Thanksgiving were more brutal than the fairytale you may have read in books or seen on television.

Culture wars.

The far right and some on the far left hate Black women with voice. The noise hate Joy Reid, Sonny Hostin, Whoopi Goldberg, Duchess Meghan of Sussex, Michelle Obama, Vice President Kamala Harris, Tiffany Cross, Tamara Hall, Karen Hunter, Heather B, Laura Coates and Symone Sanders because they show they ain't afraid to speak their minds.

In reality, European settlers forced indigenous people and Afrikans from their lands, raped, pillaged, forced slave labor, sexual exploitation and child labor. 

The far right and these Black bootlickers label her a "race-baiter" because she spoke to an audience who supports her views. She spoke to an audience who believes she was teaching critical race theory.

The MSNBC host described the holiday’s “historical inaccuracies” and used the opening segment of her show to call out GOP officials who want aspects of American history barred from textbooks on Wednesday.

Reid said it’s important to recognize that the holiday, while full of food and discussion, is built on a story of Native Americans welcoming Europeans with open arms.

“A simplistic fairytale interpretation of a 1621 encounter between indigenous tribes and English settlers that erases the genocide that followed,” Reid said. “It’s the truth Republicans want banned from our textbooks...”

Reid’s segment comes at a time of increased book-banning efforts by Republicans.

This includes Republican-controlled states’ bans ― and attempted bans ― of “The 1619 Project,” a Pulitzer Prize-winning project by New York Times reporter Nikole Hannah-Jones which examines the history and effects of slavery in America.

There have been 681 attempts to ban access to over 1,650 book titles in the first eight months of 2022, according to the American Library Association.

Far right agitator Stacy Washington upset over Reid's remarks.

Lessa Kananiʻopua Pelayo-Lozada, ALA’s president, noted that the challenges reflected “coordinated, national efforts to silence marginalized or historically underrepresented voices” and deprived America’s youth of resources to help them combat challenges they could face in their lives.

Reid said on Wednesday that the GOP desperately wants to conceal what she described as the violent origin of America.

“We’re a country that chooses violence over and over again,” Reid continued. “There is no facet of American society that is untouched by it, as all the recent headlines remind us.

“It’s the truth that Republicans want banned from our textbooks, because here’s the secret they want so desperately to keep: We are a country founded on violence,” she said, adding the claim that “we are a country that still chooses violence.”

“Our birth was violent. In 1619, a ship with more than 20 enslaved Africans landed in Virginia ushering in two centuries of American slavery that left millions in chains or dead. And when those humans in bondage were finally free, a terrorist organization that was a card-carrying member of polite society — the Ku Klux Klan —picked up where the Civil War ended using violence to maintain white supremacy,” she claimed.

Stacy Washington, a far right Black extremist on SiriusXM called Reid out for telling a harsh reality. 

“This is a woman who can’t deal with how many Americans can’t afford to buy a turkey this year so she attacks the entire holiday. She must be a miserable guest on Thanksgiving!”

Extremists Benny Johnson and Mark Levin whined as well.

Walker who is running in a runoff against Sen. Raphael Warnock (D-GA) also complained about Reid. He said he wants to debate the host after she mocked his "errection" remarks on Softball Hannity.

Reid is still angry over MSNBC's firing of Tiffany Cross. I am still angry over it.

Cross vows to keep the heat on Republicans and of course MSNBC which saw an immediate backlash for the unceremonious cannon firing.
