Minstrel show, an American theatrical form, popular from the early 19th to the early 20th century, that was founded on the comic enactment of racial stereotypes. The tradition reached its zenith between 1850 and 1870. Although the form gradually disappeared from the professional theatres and became purely a vehicle for amateurs, its influence endured—in vaudeville, radio, and television as well as in the motion-picture and world-music industries of the 20th and 21st centuries.

No one is seriously having an honest discussion about the state of “black America” (whatever that is) anymore. Only the progressive left seems to be allowed to comment on this without the risk of being labeled a bigot. Hollywood and the music industry are the modern expositors of minstrelsy and everyone is keeping their mouths shut out of fear. This short reel is the closest thing to truth spoken on this issue. Without confronting the hard truth in “black American culture” and addressing its theological deficiencies nothing will improve and down the minstrel rabbit show it will continue to slide destroying families and lives along the way. The progressive “white” liberal elites on the left love this, support it and perniciously attack anyone, or any entity, who dain to combat it.
One of the main problems is the cowardly right, especially the pious Christian right and conservative republican leadership who is ill-informed, spineless, and too concerned about being labeled a racist, bigot, or Nazi. The irony in this is that no matter the posture, the left labels them this anyhow. Christian Conservative leadership is avoiding the culture war at the expense of our families, the church, and the American government. Unfortunately, this will continue until Christians are persecuted, at scale, and by then it might be too late.
Biblical truth is not emotion and feelings, biblical truth is extolling the truth despite one’s feelings or emotions:
Love is patient and kind; love does not envy or boast; it is not arrogant or rude. It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful; it does not rejoice at wrongdoing, but rejoices with the truth. Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.
