The Last Supper Picture

[i am herdman]

Went to my son's apartment and one his roommates mother hung a picture of the Last Supper. The Lord and the Disciples are all black. I am not talking the new thing with Jesus where is of sand color. Not Jewish. Not Palestinian or like that King of Syria or Jordan. I am talking like Lebron James color. Not even Barack Obama shade.

I could see where those men would not be snow white or Irish. But, they looked like the Harlem Globetrotters. Big Julius "Dr J" Erving afros.

The boys all laugh about it and the picture is actually kind of cool looking. We all were making jokes about it. Beer cans and the black last supper looking over it.

They have a black Mt Rushmore picture they want me to hang. Not sure who all is on it.

Anyway, this black Last Supper this is somewhat confusing. I guess the races are going to argue over what color the man upstairs and his followers were.

Those boys seem to get along. Black last supper picture. Donald J Trump Poster. Don't read on Me Flag. And, Fried Chicken.

I think the world could learn a lot from them. Me included.

Herd Fever made this clear a few years back. The Jesus guy is a brother.

No way he was a brother like Lebron. I could see a Sand You Know What. But, not a brother like that.

Did the black last supper have watermelon and chitlins

Did the black last supper have watermelon

God hadn't invented watermelon yet. He was waiting for when he introduced dinosaurs to the world.

Sounds like they went with the redneck starter pack.

A clear case for how environmental factors influence child development. That B. F. Skinner was a genius.

And malt liquor.

One of my sons best buddies is black and it was his black Last Supper picture. His mom wanted in their house. So, they did it for her. I went down to where he is from and we went to dinner with his family and went to this small hole in the wall restaurant. We were the only crackers at the table and in the restaurant. One thing they learned is that West Virginian can tear up some Fried Yard Bird with the best of them. And, some catfish as well.

I swear, I think I might be part black. I fit right in. We had a blast.

I have to give the colored folks some credit. They sure can do some decent bar-b-que.

The lady next to me has some black lover come over to her place every Sunday, and them ribs he makes are really great. Whenever I see him pull in driving his Cadillac, I have to make sure I put all the windows down in the house, just in case the N word slips out while watching the game.

 

[sistersville]

No just humor like snl or cnn. Alot of rich educated white people are unlike the so called rednecks. Necks crack jokes and will live anywhere. Upper middle class educated white people dont even want to break bread with a black man let alone live next to them

You don't leave the backwoods much, do you?

That's not BBQ, that's ribs covered with ketchup and brown sugar sauce.

I use too all over america. Now i will avoid the utopia. My safe space is home. Not somebplace where some man dressed like a woman who smells like bacon wanting to hug me.

Decades of White Flight says he is right. Here's the racial breakdown for the Louisville metro area...blue is black.

Sounds like me and the Mexicans. I've been eating once a week at this little Mexican hole in the wall, and I am usually the only Gringo in there. Probably the only person legally in the US, too. You want the best food from any ethnic group, find the place with the fewest white people.

Don't ever call ribs BBQ in North Carolina. Those are ribs. LOL.

IMO, probably less to do with "sharing a meal" (as hilljack suggested) and more to do with the trend of bigger, newer homes, along with choice of inventory of houses on the market in growing areas. The race of my neighbor played little part in my ultimate home purchase decision.

Louisville would be a lot like Raleigh, in the sense that overall growth and availability of housing/construction over the last 15-20 years was concentrated in the burbs. Its where the inventory for housing is and was for people moving here.

 

[Rock98Dog]

On a side note, the blue areas also represent where about 95% of the murders occur in Louisville.

And for getting away from the black people. And I am not actually blaming white folks for that. Even when I was a kid, the West End was the rough part of town. Now it is an area of daily gunfire, making the 70s look quaint. Louisville may have been forced to end racial busing, but they now do "economic busing", and of course most white people howl about it...and considering what some of the West End kids are up to (pretty much gang warfare), I again can't say I blame them.

Didn't you used to live here? Of note is Portland, especially the white trash area. It's going to be totally gentrified in the next 20 years. It's going to be interesting. I wonder how many former hipsters will end up joining the NRA and voting Republican.

Well, yeah. It's a zone of total socioeconomic breakdown...which is me saying that liberals and conservatives will tell you different reasons it has gone to hell, and they are both right.

Never lived in Louisville. As, it pertains to Raleigh area....historically there was little availability for homes in the historically black areas for people to move into. Combined with the price of housing "within the beltline" in other "white" areas, and availability for land development and affordability "outside the beltline", people are going to go where the value is.

Again, hilljack attempted to make this a purely racial issue. Its a completely myopic way to view this. I believe its less to do with skin color specifically. There are many areas that just happen to be white majority that I have no interest in living and the reasons would be identical when comparing those neighborhoods.

Would I live next door to a black family and break bread with them? Yes.

Did the banks in Raleigh redline blacks out of the new developments? They did here.

You and I may not be racist, but yeah I agree with sisters...given the choice, the majority of upper middle class whites would rather live in all white areas.

I just popped off to get a bit raleigh. Wasnt meant towards you. In the country especially in the mines blacks and whites are brothers. We actually get along because color doesnt matter 3000 ft under the ground or hanging over a highwall with a drill on a bench my black brother built.Im not a hilljack, nothing greater than the ocean
Headed to panama city aug 18th. Staying at the majestic. Look it up and have you ever been there

 

[Walden Pond]

Breaking bread around people at all is nasty as hell. People chewing, picking the food out of their teeth, a little spittle in the air everywhere. Jaws moving around, mouth opening with chewed up food swishing around.

Oh well, at least 97% of people are into it. I'll take my kiddie menu burger home and eat it on the couch.

 

[sistersville]

I take mine to the bedroom and click on the AHC channel and listen to that while im on pullman.
