NATIONALISM

Nationalism was the most successful political force of the 19th century. It emerged from two main sources: the Romantic exaltation of "feeling" and "identity" and the Liberal requirement that a legitimate state be based on a "people" rather than, for example, a dynasty, God, or imperial domination. Both Romantic "identity nationalism" and Liberal "civic nationalism" were essentially middle class movements. - Modern History Sourcebook

black panthers, obama and white civil rights

Not long ago in Philadelphia, black panthers we found blatantly violating voter's civil rights, voter intimidation. I'm sure your familiar with this story. Two members of the new black panther party stood outside of a voting poll, dressed intimidatingly and holding a billy club/nightstick. They were heard saying "Your about to be ruled by the black man."

Voter intimidation is in violation of civil rights. Considering the racial make-up of the Presidential candidates, could you imagine if two white guys stood out front of a voting poll, dressed intimidatingly holding a weapon? WOW, the media would have a field day(not just fox news). The President would be outraged and would call for justice. The black panthers, the liberal media, and civil rights activists/ organizations would be there crying about their civil rights and those two white intimidators would be thrown in prison without a second thought. But what happened to the new black panthers? absolutely nothing.....
but wait there's more.

Not only did Obama and Attorney General Holder drop the charges against the black panthers who, just by their presence and demeanor, intimidated and threatened white voters. The Department of Justice also created a mandate stating that: " No voting rights case, no voter intimidation case, is to be prosecuted from this point forward if the defendant is black and the victim is white."
Civil rights? As long as the victim is white, who needs civil rights?

Not only does it seem to be socially acceptable, for a militant black nationalist group to violate white civil rights, now its protected by law.
