The World's Oldest Woman Is American And Black So 2014 White Supremacists Must Whitewash Her Story

The white news reporter happily tells us Jeralean Talley was alive through three centuries, and has "seen everything," but she forgets to mention that, when the first lawnmower was patented, most blacks saw they couldn't afford one (same goes for cars and planes or plane rides) or that when the first ice cream cone was invented, Mrs. Talley saw she had to get the confection from the back entrance of white establishments in the racist environment blacks were forced to call "home."

There's no mention that many of the 20 presidents she's seen were either former slaveholders or racists - or that Mrs. Tally saw them steal her taxes to support public facilities, like the libraries and swimming pools she (and her family) couldn't use for most of her life. But the happy white reporter did find time to mention DNA and Playboy Magazine, for the simple reason they existed to be seen and, thus, were soooo much important to the true telling of an elderly black's life experience in America.

Rosa Parks is wheeled out to represent 1955, but not a single word about why Rosa Parks had to take a stand, or what Jeralean Talley saw before that date,...unless you count the creation of DNA and Playboy Magazine. The creation of McDonald's and Sesame Street are also mentioned, though I have no idea why. (The lynching of blacks, for political purposes, certainly didn't make the cut - Jeralean Talley never saw any of it, presumably.) So what's MY take on this wonderful "story" of black longevity?

Whites are about as useless, as journalists, as they are citizens,...
