Rev. Wayne Perryman is a Black American author that many people have probably never heard of.
In one of his books, "Unfounded Loyalty", he chronicles the events that led to what is probably the biggest distortion in American history, the myth about the so called "racists" Republicans.
In his book he points out many, many facts that should have turned African-Americans against Democrats years ago. As he puts it "the Democratic Party is no friend of blacks".
Republicans have helped blacks more than Democrats ever have, but why do so many people believe that the Democratic Party has been the only advocate of civil rights for blacks and why has this myth been perpetrated by the Democratic Party for all these years?
He claims "Democrats didn’t fall in love with black folks; they fell in love with the black vote."
He also holds strong beliefs on why Democrats owe reparations to blacks.
So in case you have ever asked yourself why most blacks in America happen to be Democrats, consider this...
for over 150 years, blacks were victims of terrorist attacks by the Democrats and their Klan supporters, including lynching, beating, rapes and mutilations
On the issue of slavery, the Democrats literally gave their lives to expand it; the Republicans gave their lives to ban it.
Many believed the Democrats had a change of heart and fell in love with blacks. To the contrary, history reveals the democrats didn't fall in love with black folks, they fell in love with the black vote knowing this would be their ticket into the White House.
By 2003, the Democratic Party had elected white women and white men as U.S. Senators (for their party), but never a black man. The Republican had elected three.
