ALTERNATE REALITY

This meme says so much.

The statements made by both Kellyanne Conway and Drumpf are indications of lack ot historical knowledge and simply face reality!

Making up facts that didn’t occur and not knowing your history

The phrase alternate reality often serves as a synonym for a parallel universe.

It may also refer to Alternate universe (fan fiction), fiction by fan authors that deliberately alters facts of the canonical universe they are writing about

The “Bowling Green Massacre” is a nonexistent incident referred to by U.S. Counselor to the President Kellyanne Conway in interviews with Cosmopolitan and TMZ on January 29, 2017, and in an interview on the television news program Hardball with Chris Matthews on February 2, 2017.

Conway cited the “massacre” as justification for a travel and immigration ban from seven Muslim-majority countries enacted by United States President Drumpf.

However, no such massacre ever occurred.

Frederick Douglass (1818-95) was a prominent American abolitionist, author and orator. Born a slave, Douglass escaped at age 20 and went on to become a world-renowned anti-slavery activist.

His three autobiographies are considered important works of the slave narrative tradition as well as classics of American autobiography.

Douglass’ work as a reformer ranged from his abolitionist activities in the early 1840’s to his attacks on Jim Crow and lynching in the 1890’s. For 16 years he edited an influential black newspaper and achieved international fame as an inspiring and persuasive speaker and writer. In thousands of speeches and editorials, he levied a powerful indictment against slavery and racism, provided an indomitable voice of hope for his people, embraced antislavery politics and preached his own brand of American ideals.

“I am very proud now that we have a museum on the National Mall where people can learn about Reverend King, so many other things, Frederick Douglass is an example of somebody who’s done an amazing job and is getting recognized more and more, I notice.’

  1. The strangest thing about Kellyanne’s Bowling Green Massacre faux pas is that a poll on Friday shows that 51% of Trump followers still claim it is justification for the ban on Muslims!!! I am … just … speechless! (Well, okay … maybe not quite, but nearly 🙂 )
