Caught on Tape: Racist NAACP Leader Says ‘Kenneth Gladney Not Black Enough,’ an ‘Uncle Tom’
by Jim HoftOn May 5th, 2010 The Missouri NAACP hosted a press conference and rally on behalf of Perry Molens and Elston McCowan, demanding the county prosecutor drop assault charges stemming from an attack outside Russ Carnahan’s townhall in South St. Louis County on Health Care last August. Molens and McCowan were arrested after the staged Carnahan event in August after they beat, kicked and stomped on black vendor Kenneth Gladney. The two Russ Carnahan supporters and SEIU members also called Kenneth the n-word as they bashed him into the cement.
This press conference in May was intended to drum up political pressure to prevent the jury trial of the two SEIU staff members arrested for attacking Kenneth Gladney in the presence of three witnesses.
Video of the entire press conference was posted online in eight parts and includes speeches by Harold Crumpton (NAACP national board member and president, St Louis City branch), Mary Ratliff, (NAACP state president, Missouri), progressive blogger Adam Shriver (cited as their legal expert), Elston McCowan, Perry Molens, and emceed by Zaki Abruti, UAPO. Also attending the event were a host of self-defined socialist agitators and a self-proclaimed Huffington Post reporter, Jeanine Molloff.
Here is the unbelievable video of the racist NAACP event. The two men accused of attacking Gladney go on trial this month. Elston McCowan, the man standing next to the speaker, can be seen laughing when the speaker says Gladney is not a brother.
Following is the transcript:
Back in the day, we used to call someone like that, and I want to remind you, uh, when this incident occurred, I was really struck by a front page picture of this guy, which we called, a Negro, i mean that we call him a Negro in the fact that he works for not for our people but against our people. In the old days, we call him an Uncle Tom. I just gotta say that. Here it is, the day after a young brother, a young man, I didn’t mean to call him a brother, but on the front page of the Post Dispatch, ironically, he’s sitting in a wheelchair, being kissed on the forehead, by a European. Now just imagine that as a poster child picture, not working for our people.
UNREAL.
Ironically, Gladney reached out to the NAACP after the assault, but was mocked by their local president for not filing a claim. 11 months later, the same organization is out in public claiming Gladney isn’t black enough to protect and calling him an “Uncle Tom” for getting his a$$ kicked by SEIU thugs after a Carnahan town hall. And remember- Perry Molens, the SEIU staff member caught on video coming up behind Gladney and throwing him to the ground, is white.
This is outrageous.
Has the NAACP has become a radical racist, leftist group of thugs that promotes public beatings? It looks like it.

The beating of Kenneth Gladney and the treatment of black conservatives is literal proof that racial thuggery is enabled and protected by the left in this country. Kenneth Gladney was targeted by the SEIU thugs BECAUSE of his skin color.
When the gov't decides which laws it wants to enforce and which it doesn't, law enforcement becomes nothing more than a tool for promoting preferred policy. It would be like an umpire deciding that all pitches are strikes for one team and balls for another.
This is just another obamanation.
Sounds like a good time to use 'hate crime' laws… a black man getting beat up mainly because he is black. Sounds pretty text book to me.
people with money need to get some hardcore lawyers for Gladney and start pushing back
Typical RACIST DRIVEL from the NAACP RACISTS just like the CBC RACISTS.
I have said it before, the most racist large organizations are the NAACP and the CBC (that's the congressional black caucus).
I think this sufficiently removes any pretense of nobility from the NAACP. That is, whatever pretense remained after their deplorable treatment of Justice Thomas.
Hmmm…what is it they’re looking for? …what do they want? Hmmm… “Kill the crackers and their baby’s…” Where could this lead? Perhaps some level headed folks should denounce this kind of talk in no uncertain terms…crickets!!! Barry’s standing on a tinder box with matches and gasoline, not very smart, for such a smart man?
I'm sure Holder will call and order them to drop the case. Clearly no wrong-doing here. /sarc
It's sad that a group set up (and named) to advance the rights of "colored people" would actually re-enact the racism perpetrated on blacks in the past. They've effectively become their own version of doublespeak, working in the exact opposite fashion of their description.
WTF? Not black enough? Wow, what a truly lazy way to try and cover the fact that they don't want to help a black man because he's a conservative. Always despised the NAACP and the ACLU. Both are a complete waste…
Bring on all the dumb sh&% you want cause the ole white boy is going to rise up and take care of the situation at hand. Tired of all this crap. Very few minorities and BHO are thriving on racism revival. It's not necessary but it will be handled. PERIOD!
Thus the NAACP proves that they are as much for the advancement of African-Americans' rights as NOW is about the advocacy of women's rights or the ACLU is about protecting Americans' civil rights.
"We'll advocate for you – unless you're Conservative, at which point you no longer count as a human being."
Perhaps Kenneth Gladney, by showing his love for his country and trying to run a small booth at a pro-American convention, was right.
But in Obama's eyes, Kenneth Gladney acted "stupidly". Is Obama on the record on this incident? http://biggovernment.com/kengladney/2009/11/09/i-...
No, Obama will not comment on the victims of his SEIU thugs, they are deserving of the beat down.
Repeal Obamacare, that's how we can thank Kenneth Gladney. Let's call the replacement bill, with limited tort liability and interstate transferable health insurance the "Kenneth Gladney Bill".
Huzzah!
Just goes to show, what goes around, comes around. We have now seen the circle complete and the new racists in America are on the left. The very same ones who decry the abuses of previous racism are in fact racists themselves.
So much for Social Justice,,,,,,,How about EQUAL JUSTICE
Are we seeing a pattern here with this and the Black Panther crap? NAACP and the rest of the Alphabet Organized Crime Family better watch out. IF… IF things go the way this country needs in Nov and in '12 I and Im sure many Americans are going to demand the new blood to launch a major witch hunt against all these radical groups that will make the HUAC look like a sat afternoon kids party.
To any true conserv candidate be on notice, We The People are not just gong o put you in office to stop the out of control spending and disable the radical bills, we are going to expect you to shut these radical organizations down and bring these CROOKS to justice. If you, yes YOU the guy/gal trying to get our votes are not prepared to go after the Alphabet Organized Crime Families then dont run for office b/c you wont be getting my vote if your not going to go after these SOBs.
Time to take the gloves off and engage these ANIMALS on a new battlefield with out of the box tactics through http://www.savingtherepublic.com
What do you mean "Has the NAACP has become a radical racist, leftist group of thugs that promotes public beatings?"? What rock have you been hiding under? It's BEEN a radical racist leftist group for the lat 20 year. I'm really hoping your question is rhetorical.
Yes there is racism in the world and no it's not rampant in America. The extreme left MUST gin up anger and hatred in order to survive. They have no "Cause" like they had with Vietnam and Civil Rights in the 1960's. Therefore the radical left must produce a "Cause" to motivate their people. The left cannot afford to have their base sit with nothing to keep them busy, otherwise some of those people may begin to wake up and realize they were had.
Newsflash: Obama is HALF WHITE. and grew up privileged–attending a private school– in Hawaii with his BANKER grandmama supporting him. Yeah, a brother from the 'hood indeed. heh. Rough life when everything as been handed to him.
SK. The majority of racists were always on the left. There are racists on the right as well but it's not as rampant or organized as on the left.
Let's not forget the Anti-Defamation League which keeps reports on organizations it disagrees with and yet can't be bothered to support Israel or any Jewish person who is under harassment…another self-hating left-wing whackjob organization
"Has the NAACP has become a radical racist, leftist group of thugs that promotes public beatings? It looks like it."
That ship sailed a long, long time ago.
Rush calls 'em the NAALCP ("Liberal") for a reason. Like most Leftist groups, they are only interested in furthering Democrat goals, but they do it under a generic neutral-sounding moniker. National Organization of Women gave President Clinton "One Free Grope". The ACLU is still clinging to that Skokie case like it gives them license to argue on behalf of nothing but leftist causes since then but still be labeled as "fair" or "non-partisan" (as if the GOP were big fans fo the Skokie marchers…pffft). And on and on it goes.
If they would at least appropriately name themselves, I wouldn't mind so much. They intentionally do otherwise. You name a group America Coming Together and who can argue with that? What's not to like – especially for the group s3x enthusiasts out there? Deceptive…divisive…hardly true to name.
Can you imagine, for example, the NRA refusing to take a stand on a case involving some raging liberal being denied their 2nd Amendment rights? Does the NRA champion guns for Republicans, only? No. Their name is the National Rifle Association and that's what they do. If the Democrats suddenly woke up tomorrow as pro-gun and fielded [genuine] pro-gun candidates, NRA endorsements would follow (history proves this).
Sham. I wish the libtards had the guts to be honest about their agenda and intentions – it would stop them in their tracks. They know this, too, hence the deception.
He not a brother. This stick is not a night stick.
Not a beating beating
Not rape rape.
I'm tired of the race games played. Race baiting by both blacks and whites is the worst form of racism.
Those that practice it need to get out of the way and let us live together in peace.
"I look to a day when people will not be judged by the color of their skin, but by the content of their character."
~ Martin Luther King, Jr.~
The day needs to come when the actions and judgement of people are independent of the color of their skin.
That day will never arrive so long as race baiters have a platform from which to ply their hate.
Race baiting idiots motivating useful idiots. This is so sad.
The New Axis of Evil (aka the Democratic Party)
1. Public Unions (SEIU, NEA)
2. Liberal Think Tanks (Media Matters, Center for American Progress)
3. Media (ABC, CBS, CNN, NBC, NY Times, Huff Post)
4. Academia (Noam Chomsky, Cornel West)
5. Victims Groups (La Raza, CAIR, NAACP)
6. Community Organizers (ACORN, Code Pink, Free Gaza)
7. Hollywood/Celebrities (Sir Paul, Sean Penn)
At the rate we're going, what with all of the attacks from the left and from groups like La Raza it won't be long before we will have to form the NAAWP and the congressional white caucus. I would encourage everyone take the necessary steps in order to be prepared to defend themselves.
This sounds so similar to the Malik Zulu Shabazz interview in which he writes off all black non-liberals as the opposition, specifically mentioning Michael Steele.
http://bit.ly/c6AldB
They accuse anyone who opposes their point of view as being racist, whether they're black, white, or anything else.
And the New Black Panthers want to blame their "plight" on white people! The biggest problem the black community has is this constant habit of cannibalizing their own! Well, that and buying into the DNC's rhetoric that they are "victims" of society. Thankfully, many blacks are catching on, or have already caught on, to this evil scheme to enslave them for the purpose of adding to the power of a political entity that holds them in contempt.
No one should be ashamed to ask for a hand up, and EVERYONE should be inclined to spit on a hand-out. Color plays no part in this philosophy. How long will the black community allow itself to be chained to entitlements and deny itself the blessings of Liberty and Prosperity? All they have to do is say "We're not playing your game any more. We don't want your money. We just want our lives back". 99.5% of white America will stand with you if you'd only stand for yourselves! I know I would.
What a crock these people are.
And that is the hallmark of totalitarian dictatorships. America can you hear the alram bell yet?
I call for his ouster! No one should hold a prominent position in any organization and be allowed to be a racist-even black on black racism should not be tollerated like it does.
what a bunch of BS. A black man thinking for himself? why he must be a traitor. outrageous and disgusting.
What a shock, another example of hate from the left. Where is the MSM?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mw_RKFB1z9E&fe...
Let all of US remember Hillary on free speech. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NJxmpTMGhU0
Isn't the NAACP racist by it's very nature? Doesn't belonging to a "Black" or "African American" organization, make you a hard core racist by default. I'm tired of conservatives being called racists by people who make their living by being professional racists.
right? these 'rights' groups, whether they supposedly protect blacks or supposedly protect women, are really exposing themselves as purely leftist.
A perfect example of what happens when a black person "leaves the plantation", they get beat down by their masters. And the lefties call us racist? Screw them. It's time our side started making an real issue of the democrat's abysmal record on race in this country. History is on our side, and Mr. Gladney's case is just one more example.
They produce "Cause" in order to produce financial support.
Its all about money.
But he's a LEFTIST, so that gives him the "black enough" or the "legitimately black" cred he needs to keep away criticism by the usual suspects. Otherwise, he'd be judged "not legitimately black" by Revs Wright, Sharpton, Jackson, and Skip Gates, and Lois Farrakhan, etc.
You MUST learn ,that with the Leftists, IDEOLOGY trumps RACE. Everything is politics. If you are black/hispanic/gay and Leftist, you are OK. You are a "protected" class. If you are black/hispanic/gay and (non-Leftist) you are fair game for smears, slurs, beatings and everything else. You are an enemy.
But these groups still stupidly support the leftists because they believe the lie that the Left "cares" about them. The Left only cares about one thing, and that is ATTAINING and HOLDING POWER. Whatever gets in the way is a mortal enemy.
The progressive movement like any insurgency is built on a pillar of percieved injustice, it's ironic that the real and pervcieved racism is the fuel that creates these racist movements but its not suprising.
Time to wake up America, we have been fighting a low level political inusrgency for years, pull back the curtain and you will see Obama and his fellow travelers pulling all the levers at a furious pace.
If you want to lose the country then just keep eathing those potatoe chips and watching football.
I'm not surprised that the NAACP folks are supportive of blacks being beaten when they walk "off the plantation"; I'm just surprised that they were stupid or arrogant enough to be caught on audiotape openly saying so.
THIS SHOULD BE RUN ON ALL THE NETWORKS 24/7 FOR WEEKS.
WHERE IS SHARPTON???
WHERE IS JACKSON???
THEIR SILENCE MEANS APPROVAL.
We know they approve anyway. They are the REAL race-traitors. For shame!!
We need to keep the pressure on stuff like this and not let it go. Maybe justice will serve for Kenneth.
I won't argue that man. The "Cause" is what keeps them in business. Most of the liberal sheep whom I know have nothing special about their lives. The "Cause" is what they believe makes them special.
The lefty leadership derives power and financial support from the "Cause".
His mother gave birth to a biracial child to "get back" at her parents for naming her Stanley. As far as his father, well who really know? We all listened to him throw his "white" grandmother under the bus because she had been assaulted by "blacks", and he was "astonished" that she was now afraid of them!!! No one can prove (with facts) just where he was born, raised, schooled, etc…………………nada………He will definitely pay in November
Man, it seems to me that Blacks are the most RACIST people in this country! I live in Georgia and we are not racist, only the minorities are racist around here!
I am sick of this and sick of our Government!!! I fear for this country and the lives/Freedoms/Liberties of us AMERICANS!!
Liberals and Democrats are bigots. This is more evidence of it. The MSM ignores these stories of overt, blatant bigotry while searching for any mis-spoke word by a conservative to drum up some bigotry claim. He we have KKK like bigotry, REAL bigotry and where is the outcry from liberals, the outcry from African Americans, the outcry from the Democrats. There is none, because this kind of bigotry is part of the Democratic party.
I totally agree with ya man!
The NAACP did brave, necessary things in the past, but the modern incarnation of the NAACP is a joke. At this stage in the game the biggest problem of the black community is the black community, but rather than confront that reality and adapt to it, the NAACP has instead started to focus on weird minutia (not enough black baseball coaches?!).
They should be a loud voice in support of school choice, but insteady they are silent on that issue because that would put daylight between the NAACP and the Democratic party (who the NAACP is in bed with).
So he's saying it's ok that the SEIU members beat him up because he doesn't share their ideology. Wow, ok.
"Has the NAACP has become a radical racist, leftist group of thugs that promotes public beatings? It looks like it."
The dirty little secret inside the black power movement is that Martin Luther King was at a minimum a socialist based on his teachings and possibly a redistributing commie. He may have been a good man working for a virtuous cause but the result that he indirectly obtained was the creation of the black welfare plantation and the utter destruction of the black family. So to the question above, why wouldn't the NAACP have been all of those things all along?
p.s. – The least racist group of people in America are the angry white people who mostly do not care what your color is but who you are and what you can do. They are angry because they are tired of being told what color you are.
They are desperately clinging to a race card that is crumbling from being played too many times.
GO FISH!
Exactly true, well said.
So the Cracker will be sacrificed…………
No kidding. Racists are always on the left. Their friends just do a good job of telling everyone that the racists are right-wingers …
On The Jeffersons, George Jefferson would have called Obama an "oreo" and his parent's were of course, "zebras." lol. It's funny how nowadays that is considered "racist" but a militant black man rambling on in the streets about "killing crackers," etc. is somehow acceptable. Somehow *that* is "free speech." I mean, that guy shouldn't be taken away by men in white coats or anything, he's not a danger to himself or others… he just hates dem "cracker" babies.
Yes Dorothy, the world has gone completely insane.
America is, unfortunately, mostly deaf. They WILL be able to feel the boot on their neck, though. But, by then, it may be too late.
I hate his white half too!
I hate WHO Obama is, a leftist. Not what he is.
It would be foolish to under-estimate Obama and his "associates"…perhaps he is exactly where he and like-minded ilk want to be.
goddam these tyrants!
The do seem to FORGET that Obama is 1/2 WHITE!!!
The NAACP needs to give back any money it has got from the US gov't. I do not want my taxes supporting a racist organization.
absolutely correct. IF Clinton and Pelosi and the MSM are truly worried about racist, then they should be out demanding justice for Kenneth Gladney. However since he does not fit their political agenda………..
The left is where slavery was supported….. having an ex- KKK member was excused, and/or ignored, and where white SEIU thugs beating up an African AMerican like Kenneth Gladney is accepted.
They may as well become the NAAP. (National Assoc. for the Advancement of Progressives)
They're certainly napping when it comes to the welfare of blacks in America.
Where oh where is Clinton and Pelosi and the MSM. They claim to be truly worried about racist, so then they should be out demanding justice for Kenneth Gladney. However since he does not fit their political agenda these liberal hypocrits will be quietly closing their eyes and ears to this matter
As much as the Liberals try to re-write history, never forget, the Democratic party is where slavery was supported…..having an ex- KKK member was excused, and/or ignored, and where white SEIU thugs beating up an African AMerican like Kenneth Gladney is accepted.
It is the left leaning liberal democrats who have great difficulty seeing African Americans as individuals, some conservative, some liberal, etc,
The left looks at the color of skin with certian expectations, while the right understands we are all individuals, with our own ideas, regardless of race.
There is a fundamental difference between the NAACP and me. I am human.
Just goes to show you that the collectivists will always stick together. Racism is nothing but a particularly crude form of collectivism where the group is defined by physical appearance.
Oh…indeed! He didn’t sit in Jeremiah Wrights church for twenty years, and not learn to hate whitey.
So, is it high time we start the NAAWP and the CWC to combat these racist groups? After all, whites are very nearly a minority today. We can beat the FiretrUCKERS at their own game! Seriously, why do those silly groups exist? They certainly put a voice to their racist agendas and provide plenty of clout in Washington….
Cornel West? WTF you talkin about Willis?
It's almost a shame that Senator Byrd isn't here to see this.
He worked so hard for these kinds of things when he was a young man.
"Not Black Enough" essentially means that he doesn't vote how a member of his race is expected to vote. Liberals believe that race, not reason, dictates a person's thoughts, actions, and behavior. Ironically, White slaveowners believed the exact same thing.
Martin Luther King would be so proud of what his "people" have become …
Racism is alive and well in the USA. It is almost exclusively found on the left.
The left has gotten away with the biggest fraud in history.
They are horribly racist, and they're keeping the modern black American as little more than slaves, but with enough people on their side spouting the same lies, they've managed to convince them that the liberals are actually looking out for them.
Sad.
I think, along with school choice everywhere, more blacks should start reading Ayn Rand. Once they realize that the only person who is going to look out for them is the one in the mirror, they'd be much better off and out of the oppresive and racist control of the democrats.
[...] » Caught on Tape: Racist NAACP Leader Says ‘Kenneth Gladney Not Black Enough,’ an … [...]
we have reached the point in america when a black man can be beat down for his political beliefs by a white man and IT'S THE WHITE GUY THAT THE NAACP SUPPORTS!
mel brooks would have a field day with this stuff
What if someone said the speaker was "too black"? That would be racist. So why is it not racist when this big mouth condones a beating of a person because he was perceived as not being an Obama supporter and black enough? Obama's idiotic behavior has brought the creepy crawly nut jobs out of the woodwork, from Van Jones, Holdren, Cass Sunstein, Marc Lloyd and Carol Browner to SEIU and this Panther type group. The only thing America has done to them is create a lifestyle of ease and choice and freedom. I guess that means too much responsibility as well.
More black racism on display.
This situation is a prime example of the hypocrisy the naacp, along with other so-called black centric groups, exhibits. How anyone tolerates rules, regulations and legislation proposed by a black group specifically for black people is preposterous and outrageous. When will a president show his brass balls and stand up to these racist oriented slobs. When will this convoluted mess end?
How can liberals attack black members of the Republican Party and then attack the Republican Party for not having black members?
The Democratic Party must and will remain a big tent party. To that end
I personally believe that the men who perpertrated intimidation or bodily
harm upon Mr. Kenneth Gladney should be prosecuted to the fullest
extent of the law. And any Democrat that believes otherwise needs to
reconsider the message they're sending. This is why you see no Leftist
opposition on this topic here on this thread.
" I have a dream that , one day , a person will not be judged by the content of their character but by the color of their skin."
Martin Luther Shabazz
Primate logic.
Only if the primate has severe head trauma.
It appears that when President Obama referred to a post-racial America, he clearly meant a post-white America. Does not the NBBP case nail the coffin shut on that charge? If not, maybe this new report will.
http://www.openmarket.org/2010/06/15/financial-re...
yup. agreed.
and we believe that all men are created equal. Willing to give all people the chance to succeed or fail on merit. We judge the content of character, period.
regarding Democrats and the NRA – yup – Harry Reid – although not quite as purely as I'd like out of the NRA. They've compromised their own credibility with him.
Ya, Cornel West Ivy League professor/nutcase – not Col. Allen West – patriot and future congressman, senator and maybe president.
my heart is heavy with sorrow seeing the steps forward we as a nation had taken
being reduced to rubble by the actions of the left with their agenda of domination
and socialist/communist rhetoric
I think the reason we see no opposition on this topic is due to
the lefts attempt at staying in the dark and hoping no one sees
them for the racists they are
lol but sadly
From your statement above "Has the NAACP has become a radical racist, leftist group of thugs that promotes public beatings? It looks like it."
They always have been, always will be, nothing new about their motives.
Gentle Readers,
Dear Pat in NC,
It seems they would apply, doesn't it: All Mr. Gladney was doing was selling Gadsen Flags. So far as I know, he had nothing to do with the ' tea party ' movement until a bunch of white, racist thugs decided to beat him up.
He certainly has done nothing at all to deserve being called an ' Uncle Tom ': He was selling American Flags to all buyers! How is that being an Uncle Tom? The NAACP owes Mr. Gladney an apology, and frankly, they should be assisting him. Mr. Gladney is a victim of violent racism.
Sincerely,
John Lepant Brighton CO
SEIU = MILITANT INTIMIDATION = BLACK LIBERATION THEOLOGY = HATRED FOR WHITES & CAPITALISM = HATRED & VIOLENCE TO ANYONE APPEARING TO SUPPORT IT
BLACK HATRED FOR THE PEOPLE & COUNTRY THAT PROVIDES THE BEST OPPORTUNITY FOR INDIVIDUAL FREEDOM AND SUCCESS ANYWHERE IN THE UNIVERSE = CIVIL RIGHTS MOVEMENT + COMMUNISM
Has the NAACP has become a radical racist, leftist group of thugs that promotes public beatings?
they've been racist since almost the beginning. the goal is to be the masters of their white slaves.
Only white's can be racists, and conservative blacks are oreo's (and shall be treated as white). /sarc
The left has always been racist. The dem's wanted slavery. the dem's started the KKK. the dem's started jim crow and segregation. the dem's opposed civil rights legislation. the dem's started welfare, NOT because they cared about blacks, but they wanted a stupid voter block that would stay uneducated and poor. (and the black race whores re: jackson & sharpton – support it to line their pockets with $$$ and have power.) etc. etc. etc.
Gladney can sue in civil court for assault and battery, as well as a civil case concerning abrogation of his civil rights. Has he brought suit yet?
Damn straight! Although scratch "New". The Dems are the racist party that 100% of them voted against the abolition of slavery. You might also add Bankrupting future generations, which is probably the most selfish, immoral act I can imagine. If you are Democrat, you are either profoundly ignorant or extremely immoral, evil or what ever you want to call it. Certainly a Democrat has zero character. Lying is a way of life for them. And everything they stand for goes against any semblance of morality.
Simply put Scum!
This November we open a can of whoop-ass, the likes that have never been seen before!…
