GOP Gov. Haley Barbour Responds to Charges of Racism

WASHINGTON (The Blaze/AP) — Mississippi Gov. Haley Barbour, a potential Republican presidential candidate, said Tuesday he was not trying to downplay the pain that many endured during the South‘s segregation era when he defended his home town’s 1970 public school integration process.
Barbour spoke out a day after several liberal activists criticized his published comments about school desegregation in Yazoo City, which occurred when he was 20. Historical accounts confirm the schools integrated peacefully, as Barbour stated in a recent profile in the Weekly Standard magazine.
Some critics, however, said his comments skimmed over the segregationist role played by so-called Citizens Councils in the state.
Asked by the magazine why Yazoo City’s public school integration avoided the violence seen in other towns, Barbour said: “Because the business community wouldn’t stand for it. You heard of the Citizens Councils? Up north they think it was like the KKK. Where I come from it was an organization of town leaders. In Yazoo City they passed a resolution that said anybody who started a chapter of the Klan would get their ass run out of town.”
A January 1970 Time Magazine article about Yazoo City said, “local white leaders began more than a month ago to prepare their city for the shock of final desegregation. A loosely knit committee of prominent whites met with the city’s whites, urging them to support the public schools rather than abandon them.”
Several liberal bloggers Monday said Barbour left an inaccurate impression of Mississippi’s local Citizens Councils, which sought to thwart integration in many areas. The white supremacist groups had their chief influence in the 1950s and early 1960s, years before the Yazoo City schools integration.
Barbour said in a statement Tuesday: “When asked why my hometown in Mississippi did not suffer the same racial violence when I was a young man that accompanied other towns’ integration efforts, I accurately said the community leadership wouldn’t tolerate it and helped prevent violence there. My point was my town rejected the Ku Klux Klan, but nobody should construe that to mean I think the town leadership were saints, either. Their vehicle, called the ‘Citizens Council,’ is totally indefensible, as is segregation. It was a difficult and painful era for Mississippi, the rest of the country, and especially African Americans who were persecuted in that time.”
In the Weekly Standard profile, Barbour said he remembered Martin Luther King Jr. speaking in Yazoo City in 1962, when he would have been 12 years old. He said he did not recall King’s words.
“The truth is, we couldn’t hear very well,” Barbour said. “We were sort of out there on the periphery. We just sat on our cars, watching the girls, talking, doing what boys do. We paid more attention to the girls than to King.”
A quick data base search found records of King speaking in Yazoo City in 1966, when Barbour would have been 16, but not in 1962.
“Gov. Barbour did not comment on the Citizens Council movement’s history,” Barbour spokesman Dan Turner told TPM yesterday. “He commented on the business community in Yazoo City, Mississippi.”

Posted on December 21, 2010 at 4:09pmWait a minute Barbour claimed he was at a King rally when he was 12 yrs. old, when he was ACTUALLY 16 yrs. old. If that doesn‘t prove that he’s a racist bigot then nothing will. I‘m glad the racism patrol is on top of it’s game and doesn’t let racist republican Govenors get away with this sort of thing

Posted on December 21, 2010 at 3:56pmHollywood and the liberal mass media have dragged Mississippi through the mud for decades. It is amazing the perception our country has of it and its citizens. Just like all the other lies told by the progressives, most are not true. Yes, there is poverty, but there is poverty all over the U. S. Not everyone in Mississippi is ignorant and barefoot. In fact, most of the people I knew growing up there were better educated and spoke grammatically correct English better than most here in the New England/mid-Atlantic states. I’ve been down more dirt roads in this area than I ever travelled on in Mississippi. Wake up, America! You haven’t been told the truth about a whole lot of things. I don’t know much about Haley Barbour. I do know my sister who still lives in Mississippi does not like him, so before we give him a favorable vote for a run for office, I think he needs to prove he isn’t just another RINO. As far as being a racist, I’m sick of that card being played. It is a broken record and has lost its effectiveness. Most Americans want to move on to a time when we can judge a person by his principles. Racist liberals who have nothing more of merit to offer are stuck on these rantings.

Posted on December 21, 2010 at 3:34pmI don’t get this! Barbour was only 20 when all this was going on. He was not a community leader at the time and had no vioce on the matter. If he doesn’t know the exact history or mispeaks about what he believed the situation to be at the time then that is completely excusable. Just get the facts correct before commenting on them since it is a highly charged subject even to speak about today. Thats it right there! Someone white speaking about a race matter more then 30 years ago is somehow a racial issue. Unbelievable!!!

Or that Susan B Anthony was a Republican or that the Republican party organized groups of people to counter the terrorist wing of the Democrat Party known as the KKK. Why is that the liberals never want to deal with facts and history? For elitists they sure are ignorant.

Posted on December 21, 2010 at 3:23pmAt least in thought, nearly everyone is somewhat chauvinist concerning their own group, be it race, nationality, social class, state, city, neighborhood, etc.
The problem with race is when thought becomes action. The actions on the Left – even the “mainstream” – are often reprehensible. The most vile examples (think Al Sharpton) are nearly deified by the Left. We on the Right do have some racially extremist factions (ie, KKK, neo-Nazis, etc.), but their actions are condemned by the vast majority of conservatives.

Sharpton lives off the backs of the lazy people that have no ambition what-so-ever. They are a dying breed.

The strangest thing was that she apologized to him for slavery, yet they came from the SAME ANCESTOR. Maybe he should have been apologizing, too? It was funny, but sad, because so many white people have been made to feel responsible for things that they never had any part of.

His father, mentor and spiritual leader were/are all communists; he took over several U.S. corporations under the guise of saving the economy, which is something a communist would do; one of his closest advisors, Van Jones, who was going to reshape the economy and bring in a green economy is an avowed communist; according to Obama’s health care czar, Obamacare will redistribute wealth, which is a communist concept; he launched the first campaign of his political career in the home of William Ayers, a committed communist, and; he was endorsed by the Communist Party of the United States.
