The Blaze’s Erica Ritz Contributed To This Report
According to MSNBC Host Melissa Harris-Perry
- 9/11 vaulted America into a “nationalist fervor” that was similar to “having post-traumatic stress disorder”
- Makes racial joke about African-American men wearing NYPD hats
- 9/11 provided an opportunity for a new “racial enemy” in America
- America “identifies who we are…through our notions of whiteness and of the racial enemies that are the non-whites”
- 9/11 gave America a chance to shift its racial hate from “Reagan‘s ’welfare Queen’“ to ”imagine” our enemy as ”somehow Muslim, or Arab, or Sikh, or something else.”
- Americans an ability to “stomach a kind of horrific racial violence in the name of national security”
- Those that are “activating terrorism against us” are “imagined racial enemies”
During a speaking engagement Monday, MSNBC host Melissa Harris-Perry made some startling accusation concerning 9/11 and Americas War on Terror. Perry, who anchors The Melissa Harris-Perry show on the weekends, remarked that 9/11 vaulted America into a “nationalist fervor” that was similar to “having post-traumatic stress disorder.”
The former neighbor to President Obama even used a racial joke to make her point, saying she knew the city was suffering from PTSD because “for about a year, there were African-American men walking around the city of New York with NYPD hats on. That can only be explained as a PTSD response.”
The Tulane Professor of Political Science continued, noting that 9/11 provided an opportunity for a new “racial enemy” in America, explaining:
“Americans in part identify who we are, and who deserves what, through our notions of whiteness and of the racial enemies that are the non-whites.”
She noted that the terrorist attacks gave America a chance to shift its racial hate from “Reagan‘s ’welfare Queen’“ to another ”imagined“ racial enemy that was ”somehow Muslim, or Arab, or Sikh, or something else.” This gives Americans an ability to “stomach a kind of horrific racial violence in the name of national security,” which Harris-Perry notes is a repeating part of American “history.”
Harris-Perry was speaking to the Take Back The American Dream Conference in Washington, D.C. on Monday:
Some quotes from Melissa Harris-Perry:
- “Americans of course responded in very typically American ways to [terrorism], something that many people in the rest of the world had already experienced. We began with a kind of nationalist fervor that was justified as reasonable patriotism.”
- “I’d like to point out that we clearly must have been having post-traumatic stress disorder because for about a year after September 11th, there were African-American men walking around the city of New York with N.Y.P.D hats on– that can only be explained as a P.T.S.D. response.”
- “The other thing that happens in that moment, I don’t want to miss this, is that a new version of what America typically needs emerge, and that is a racial enemy. Americans in part identify who we are, and who deserves what, through our notions of whiteness and of the racial enemies that are the non-whites.“
- “And in this moment, the new racial enemy became not so much Reagan‘s ’welfare queen,’ who was imaginary, but instead this imagined other that is somehow Muslim, or Arab, or Sikh, or something else.”
- “We became willing to stomach a kind of horrific racial violence in the name of national security. It is something that we have been willing to stomach as a people over and over again in our history.”
- “The Patriot Act was not an act of a Republican president acting alone. The Patriot Act was a bipartisan decision by both parties. It was not bought and paid for by corporations; it was bought and paid for by our fear.”

Therefore, o Christian prepare for persecution until the Lord returns.

Posted on June 19, 2012 at 3:55pmProsecute, Paul supporters are doing their best to overcome the greedy and power hungry in our government. Lawyers for Ron Paul filed a lawsuit last week that will undoubtedely unbind all delegates at the national convention, but the biggest thing coming out of this lawsuit is going to be the exposure of RNC election fraud that runs deep in the GOP. We Republicans are told over and over again by Fox News and other outlets that the Democrats do voter fraud as a way of life. Little did we know that the RNC is the biggest perpetrator of election fraud within their own party. There will be another suit filed against the RNC under RICO statutes and we will see the prosecution of many of these establishment hacks. It amazes me that people turn a blind eye to this story, as though they ar OK with the RNC and GOP leaders to committ federal felonies. What has happened to all the Republicans? I have been a Republican for 36 years and I am ashamed of the party right now for their silence on these subversive acts. I hope that people will continue to wake up to the realities of what is going on and quit letting the establishment guide them around by their nose.

Fact is, as an ally, you are responsible for taking their homes and land. You are responsible for displacing their families. You are responsible for placing them into ghettos, walling in those ghettos, and establishing checkpoints around those ghettos.
You fail to see that those acts were an atrocity when the Nazis did the same to the Jews. Those acts are no less an atrocity because Jews now do it to others, except in the mind of a fanatical zealot. You are on par with being an ally to the Nazis, and just as guilty as denying that fact.

I ask that you please review the work and credentials of Melissa Harris-Perry and take serious consideration of giving her a firm reprimand or dismissal. Her hateful and bigoted views of race in America are not merely contrite but utterly offensive to white and black Americans.
Her pejorative towards black American males assumes a damaging, disgusting, and racist stereotype of all black males being criminals, convicts, and outlaws. This kind of racism might as well have come out of the mouth of the KKK.
Melissa Harris-Perry’s further degradation of white people is demeaning, narrow minded, and utterly racist. Was it not a predominantly white America that put down Hitler? That pounded the British Empire? That faced down the Soviets?
Melissa Harris-Perry is not an intellectual, she is a bigot disguising herself as a professor.

Posted on June 19, 2012 at 10:32pmOh no! The Blaze is trying to make Melissa Harris-Perry another Scary Black Person? Well it figures, she is black after all, and educated, attractive and well spoken which makes it even worse. Can’t do the normal “look how stupid she is” number on her.
But let’s take a single bullet point from the above, for those of you who didn’t listen to the video:
“The Patriot Act was not an act of a Republican president acting alone. The Patriot Act was a bipartisan decision by both parties. It was not bought and paid for by corporations; it was bought and paid for by our fear.”
Many here know that the so called Patriot Act, passed by both Republicans and Democrats, allows the government to spy on you and monitor your communications without probable cause, in violation many believe, of the Fourth Amendment of the US Constitution. Nuh-uh, sorry, it doesn’t mean just Muslims. It could be you. The Patriot Act allow the Executive Branch to decide who to spy on.
So she speaks out against the passage of that legislation, and says it was passed in a moment of national fear. So, that didn’t happen? And you’re happy the government can spy on you and read whatever you communicate without a judge agreeing the government has probable cause to suspect you of a crime? You agree with that?
Of course you don’t, except when a scary black person says that’s wrong. Then you suddenly see how wonderful that is. See how that works?

The hole in the Pentagon is not big enough, or even close to being big enough to fit a Boeing 757. No engines found there, no wings, no tail section. The whole story falls apart. Our wonderful military men getting the sh*t blown out of them for corporate reasons, the guys who sell the bullets are sitting on even bigger yachts down in St. Barths partying away. We get “Homeland Security?” If we are secure, then why does our southern border leak like a sieve? That “Patriot Act” is pretty patriotic, isn’t it? Gotta love being frisked like a criminal every time you fly. The whole thing is disgusting from start up until now. Our guys coming home from God forsaken places with their limbs blown off for……..what again? I don’t get it.

Posted on June 20, 2012 at 2:39amThe_Jerk “We made Muslims our enemy. A brief look at history reveals that truth.”
You are a liar and Jerk suits you. We were a brand new nation which had not bothered anyone in the middle east. 75 percent of our federal national budget was going to pay off muslim pirates and thieves to allow our materials which we bought and paid for to make it back to our shores. They were sacking and robbing our ships and murdering our innocent citizens who had done them no wrong. This prompted us to go to war, the origin of the song with the words ‘…to the shores of Tripoli…’.

Posted on June 20, 2012 at 7:18amSo let me guess, imagined racism got on planes and hijacked them. Imagined racism plowed those planes into buildings. Imagined racism killed those several thousand people on 9/11. No you moron lady, it was the religion of Islam, which by the way has many different races in it, whites, blacks, and middle eastern descent. So once again you moron race baiter, racism played no part of anyone in the world blaming those of Islam for being terrorists, they prove the fact every single day. 99% of terrorists on the face of the earth are muslims. Stating fact does not make you a racist.

Posted on June 20, 2012 at 7:21amIf only some of the educated amongst the minorities who think like Melissa Harris-Perry could break away from their racial thinking that came with their upbringing, they might do wonders to save their race. Instead, she spouts nonsense such as her belief that we are who we are because of our notions of whiteness and of the racial enemies that are the non-whites. Sadly, I’m afraid, many of the African-Americans have similar beliefs.
Report Post »Yes, a majority of Americans now feel their enemy comes from terrorist camps in Afghanistan and surrounding areas, but I assure MHP that we are not thinking of their color or race. Further, when I was born, the enemy was Hitler, Mussolini, and Tojo. Four years later and for the next 45 years, that enemy became Russia. Yet, for most of those 50 years, way too many of Melissa’s ancestors were so paranoid they agonized obsessively, erroneously thinking we were prejudiced against them and that the were the enemy. Believe me, that was not the case, except possibly in a half dozen states of the deep south, a problem which has long since been addressed. The black community is not advancing because of the black community.

Posted on June 20, 2012 at 5:15pmIt’s truly a shame when people get an education that is taylored to fit into their victemized and entitled mind-set. They have had that crap pumped into their brains from the time they could breathe and probably even in the womb. They could learn the truth, but then they’d have to do something other than whine and spew their hatred. They could contribute to our nation – if they could accept the truth, but most cannot. If they started to understand the truth, and acted accordingly, their own “false” culture would attack them and ostracize them. That fear is worse for them than anything. They don’t want to belong to America, they want to bring America down to their level of understanding, and rise over those they hate, to effect “justice.” JZS ga
