Media myths about the Jena 6

You gotta read this...

A very interesting piece about Jena from a reporter that actually lives in Jena and is married to a teacher at Jena High School. Read this piece, LINK and you will be blown away by the difference in what you've heard form the Mainstream Media and the truth. For example:


Myth 1: The Whites-Only Tree. There has never been a "whites-only" tree at Jena High School. Students of all races sat underneath this tree. When a student asked during an assembly at the start of school last year if anyone could sit under the tree, it evoked laughter from everyone present – blacks and whites. As reported by students in the assembly, the question was asked to make a joke and to drag out the assembly and avoid class.



I don't know about you, but I got the distinct impression that it was a "whites only tree." Let's look at another:

Myth 7: The Schoolyard Fight. The event on Dec. 4, 2006 was consistently labeled a "schoolyard fight." But witnesses described something much more horrific. Several black students, including those now known as the Jena 6, barricaded an exit to the school's gym as they lay in wait for Justin Barker to exit. (It remains unclear why Mr. Barker was specifically targeted.)


Wow, never read that anywhere before, have you? Click the link above and read the rest of the myths. You'll be shocked to learn of the truth especially in light of the protests and attention this story has gotten. It's very revealing that those on the left will do all they can to proclaim their victim hood and attempt to capitalize on it. And in my opinion, are doing more to divide black and white than they are doing to unite black and white.

So much for having "a Dream..."
