[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]All of the area country clubs are vast majority white. [b]It’s reflection of the wealthy, homogeneous communities they are in.[/b] But you are attending a private function, not joining the club so I don’t see why it would be a concern. Are you thinking your spouse would be treated differently by the staff or something?[/quote] No its not. It's a reflection of their racist past. Read some history on the clubs and neighborhoods in the area please...Chevy Chase was created to keep Blacks and also Jews OUT. Why any black person would want to live there today is beyond me. Read up on Francis G. Newlands who viewed black people as a race of children. https://www.washingtonpost.com/history/2018/09/29/racist-history-chevy-chase-home-power-players-like-brett-kavanaugh/?utm_term=.f4211fbfdfb0 [/quote] You are so ignorant to think this was unique to these specific neighborhoods and that the past continues today. Try reading this: [url]https://ggwash.org/view/41615/where-dc-used-to-bar-black-people-from-living[/url] Seems based on your logic "why would any black person want to live there today" applies across the city. [/quote] I know it wasn't just that neighborhood, jerk. I know the history of this area very well thank you! I'll add that CC is unique because it was created by a well known racist. Others areas in DC don't have that exact same history asshole. [/quote] And that well known racist was an ardent Democrat. As was his pal Wilson. I guess under your logic, that condemns that entire party forever. [/quote] Don't try to shift the conversation to politics - we were talking about neighborhoods and their racist past. That's what you white folks like to do, shift to make stuff about something else. Nice trick, doesn't work though.[/quote]
