South Carolina & Georgia Racism, and Conspiracy Against African American Men -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- See also African-Americans - Reconstruction - 1865-1900 Main Page Written by Hayden Hayes, Michael Trinkley, and President of Local N.A.A.C.P Chapter- Rev. Dr. Franklyn V. Beckles Jr., and Founder of the Chicora Foundation and Sons For Christ Church of God Ministries.. Our Enemy Racist defiance was found throughout South Carolina and Georgia, with continued racism complaints, false arrests, and harrassment against Black men, mostly from corrupt cities like: Aiken, Edgefield, Orangeburg, Columbia, Charleston, Augusta, and Burke County. The tone being set by individuals such as Armistead Burt, who exclaimed that as a white man he was ready to fight for the control of his state and country, "which was discovered by the white man, settled by the white man, made illustrious by the white, and must continue to be the white man's County." Joseph Abney insisted, "We need not be dainty as to the means employed; we must fight the Devil with fire ... [and] wage incessant, restless, and eternal war" on African-Americans. Economic coercion was certainly one means used to "control" African Americans in South Carolina. With blacks increasingly unable to acquire land, the economic system of the state continued to be solidly rooted in the plantation system ? which was controlled by the white planters. One Democratic Club in Edgefield County (like Aiken and Richmond County a City corrupted by crooked Government Officials and Police, organized by racist and feminist bastard men and women! Passed a resolution that members would "not employ any negro or white man, or any member of their family, who fails to bring with him a written certificate from his former employer that he is a Democrat and has voted with the Democrats at some election." Governor Benjamin Perry announced simply, "If they will not vote with us we should not employ them." But their successful form of control was also the most traditional instrument ? violence. As Lieutenant M. DeKnight in Abbeville reported, "Unless the colored man either votes the Democratic Ticket or stays away from the Polls altogether, he will be shot down." Lieutenant William Stone in Edgefield confessed it was impossible "to protect the lives and property of those who do not agree politically with the large majority of white citizens." A similar account from Clarendon, Kershaw, and Lancaster found Republicans "intimidated by threats of the most violent and dangerous character" and confirmed that "armed bands of men" patrolled the roads. Democratic Clubs were raised throughout the State ? and their purpose was anything but social. Testimony to Congress by one leader of these clubs made their purpose clear: "To find out where the negroes were holding Union Leagues ... kill the leaders; fire into them and kill the leaders if [we] could." Similarly, these Democratic Clubs sought out holders of Republic ballots before elections and take the ballots away from them. If they resisted, "shoot them and take them by force." This campaign was successful. State Senator Solomon Washington Dill was shot dead in his home. Representative James Martin, a legislator from Abbeville, was killed in front of the Abbeville Court House. Johnson Stuart, a prominent Republican from Newberry, was murdered riding home from a political meeting. Lee Nance, president of a local Union League, was killed in his front yard. And Representative B.F. Randolph was murdered as he stepped off a train at Hodges Depot. South Carolina whites embraced terrorism and the best example of that was the Ku Klux Klan. Although organized in Tennessee in 1866, cells of the organization did not appear in South Carolina until 1868. Some historians have tried to soften the hate and racism of the KKK by suggesting that its goal was to enforce community morals. As historian Richard Zuczek remarks, "Cases do exist of hooded horsemen abusing suspected thieves and chastising adulterers, but instances of 'moral enforcement' are negligible when compared to the number of political attacks." Other historians have tried to link the creation of the Klan to protection against an "out-of-control" black militia. Although the Klan was clearly operating in South Carolina by the late spring of 1868, no militia of any kind existed in South Carolina until the spring of 1870 since all such forces had been disbanded by the Reconstruction Acts of 1867! A few historians have tried to argue that the Klan arose in response to Republican corruption and fraud. It is difficult to find any connection between political corruption in Columbia and the whipping or lynching a black man a hundred miles away on a rural farmstead. Nevertheless, when the Klan was formally introduced to South Carolina in 1868, South Carolina's new government was barely operational ? there certainly wasn't time for it to have become "corrupt and fraud-ridden." The Klan arose in 1868 immediately after the failure of whites in South Carolina to defeat the new state constitution. The Klan was a political organization with an agenda that was very certain to the citizens of South Carolina at the time. One individual testifying before Congress made this clear when he explained their goal was to "kill out the leaders of the republican party and drive them out of the state."

Dr. Franklyn Victor Beckles, Jr. Staff Writer Monday, April 12, 2010 A committee will review Augusta Fire Department hiring procedures that some commissioners say are keeping good firefighters away. "Thank God we haven't had this issue of a person trying to get into a burning house and they couldn't do their job," Commissioner Joe Jackson said. Hiring procedures put into place three years ago don't credit applicants for certifications they already have, such as EMT certification. Nor do they give credit for experience such as military service, Jackson said. "Is our house out of order?" Commissioner Don Grantham asked when the issue was raised at a committee meeting. Commissioner J.R. Hatney said it was. "I get 25 calls a month from the fire department," Hatney said. The hiring process needs "a complete review" by a subcommittee with input from city human resources, equal employment and administration, he said. Hiring procedures introduced in 2007 include applicant interviews and agility testing, Fire Chief Howard Willis said. The procedures are followed to the letter and candidates are hired from the top scorers down, Willis said. Which is a Lie, and only part of the misconduct that is really going on at The Fire Department. Assistant Chief Christopher James has been wrongfully firing new firefighters in 2009, for an unfair nepotism policy. Then re-hires most of the firefighters, once the department did away with the policy, but has a training program; under James direction, that has encouraged firefighters to harrass, bully, assult, and threaten other firefighters! Official complaints have been issued to Director Ms. Humphrey at the E.O.A. Currently Asst. Chief James and the entire Fire Department is under investigation, for racism, harrassment, terrorisitic threats, and wrongful terminations against fellow firefighters. Firemen along with James that are suspected of criminal activity are: Scott Walker, Lt. Brown/Lt. Lee (under Asst. Chief James), Recruit Firefighters; Myles, mith, Wolmack, Zanwiger, Santadota, Mullins, Johnson, A. Johnson, Parrish, Garcia, and Female recruit Ms. Guest. If You Know anything about Augusta, Aiken Counties (The C.S.R.A)-Corruption, racism, and injustice toward Black Men are common place; especially From The Public School System, Board of Education, Police Departments, and our U.S. Military Branches. But we as Americans, should not expect this kind of inhumanity from an Institution that we all hold dear (especially after 9/11); such as The Fire Department! But the sad truth is that in The Fire Service, there is indeed lots of racism, feminism, and lack of true brotherhood amongst fellow firefighters. Hopefully this new report and criminal investigation will change some very bad practices in The Augusta Fire Department, not including the wrongful termination of Black men, who are good public school teachers, Superintendant Bedden; of The Board of Education, representing Richmond County Public Schools, since he started the job, has had more complaints of racism than before. These degenerate bastards like: Bedden, Akpo-Sanni, Spry, and the Board of Education in Aiken and Richmond County, and Aiken Technical College has deleberately been firing without cause Teachers, who are Black men since the 1980s, and even with a Black man as President of U.S. (Obama), intense racism and criminal conspiracy against Good Black Men still continues in 2010...

My Family Will Always Come First
Do Not Live In Augusta or Butler Creek Homes
Augusta And Aiken Are Racist and Bad Places To Live
About our BusinessImagine a community where you can enjoy the quality of life you've always dreamed about. A place where you can jump in the pool to escape from the hot days of Georgia in the summertime or get out the fishing pole and relax by the lake. A home where your children enjoy safe playgrounds and experience wonderful birthday parties in a large modern clubhouse. A quiet, secluded country-style casual community close to the best shopping, restaurants and entertainment Augusta has to offer. Well gues what, do not come to Butler Creek Trailer Park Homes, under ownership of CAL Financial, LLC. They are not what they appear to be. The Housing Management under Supervisers; Micah, Ken, and Sandy are corrupt and racist. They have been allowing residents to move in with felonies, cause noise disturbances, and threaten good people like the Beckles Family into being evicted for no reason. And Their Maintenance Staff do little to nothing to fix repairs, and leave you holding the bag under Mobile Home 30 day Warranty. Entrance to the community is located off of Phinizy Road between Peach Orchard and the Bobby Padgett Highway. Micah and his staff frequently lie to people, saying that they have security to protect residents. But there are no visible security, and the management staff do nothing to protect people being harrassed by bad neighbors. DO NOT MOVE TO BUTLER CREEK!!!!
