  1. It has been a pleasure listening. I like your strategy.

    1. Derrick, I saw you on Dr. Phil. I love everything you say. I am a white NYC Catholic conservative who is down the middle but leans right. You are a logical person and that is all we can ask for. Would love to see you run for office. Good luck and God Bless.

  2. How refreshing. Your program is like a breath of fresh air. We need more programs like yours. Perhaps we can even the playground. Thank you Mr. Wilburn.

  3. Great to hear you on Rush today.

    Congrats on your PhD-Pigheaded Determination®

    Lead on!

  4. Hi Derrick:

    I heard your interview with Mark Steyn today. Your internship sounds like a smart way to link the “younger” generations with the “older” conservative ideals in any community. Thanks for your hard work and forward planning.

  5. the University of Okla showed how minorities can succeed.


  6. Mr. Wilburn, is truly an inspiration! I am proud to say that I will be fellowshipping with him this summer. This 2018 Congressional will allow me to obtain hands-on experience in the political realm. Therefore, forever shaping my future!

    The Unseen THREAT to the Working American

    All working Americans, younger and older, men and women, all races should be FREE to keep the money that they earn. When they work, they should be able to retain the proceeds of their labor enabling them to purchase goods and services for themselves, and their families, or whomsoever they choose.

    Yes, they do have a responsibility to pay some taxes for legitimate functions of government, such as national defense, law enforcement, public safety, certain transportation, common road use, clean water, etc. However, let us not allow or hold those things hostage because certain congresspersons have different “goody programs“ that they’ve got to hand out to various constituents – at the expense of the working men and women – to help their re-election chances.

    There should be no more taxes, whether seen or unseen, depriving the hard-working American citizen of his/her earnings in order for special-interest minded congresspersons to finance one of their social “goody programs,“ paying for those individuals who either refuse to work, even though such are physically and/or mentally able, or those who are in America illegally.

    The millions upon millions who are in this country illegally have broken the law, showing no respect for the laws of the land nor the citizens of America. [An aside: As an American citizen, what if you tried to illegally enter and attempt to reside in Switzerland, Norway, Austria, etc.? Would these countries provide you with welfare handouts, or instead enact a punishment against you for breaking their immigration laws?]

    In the effort to help the hard-working people of America retain more of the money for which they work, on December 22, 2017, President Trump signed into law the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act: the most sweeping changes to U.S. tax policy in 30 years. Overall, according to the Secretary of the Treasury, Steven Mnuchin, about 90% of the U.S. wage earners (estimated to be about 155,576,000) will see more take-home pay at year’s end. Households (estimated to be about 126,224,000) earning $150,000 or more – the dividing line to put workers into the top 20% of American earners – will pay the vast majority of the income tax, about 87%. Furthermore, according to the House Ways and Means Committee, most families earning under $50,000 per year will pay no effective income tax at all, and many will get money back due to measures like the increased standard deduction and child tax credit.

    Unfortunately, try as he might, although President Trump was able to cut/lower the effective tax rate on most American working men and women, he was unable to cut/lower the “unseen tax“ on the American people as there exists far too many special-interest minded members of Congress who oppose his plan to cease borrowing money for certain programs, and instead start paying down the national debt.

    The “unseen tax“ is the tax which reduces the purchasing power of the money which the American earns every year. This “unseen tax“ is the consequence of the special-interest minded congresspersons of the U.S. voting/agreeing to spend, then actually spending, more money than the federal government collects from “seen taxes,“ the majority of which are the taxes on income men and women pay.

    Spending money on specific self-serving congressional programs for which the federal government must borrow the money, and which borrowed money the federal government does not repay at year’s end, creates a deficit for the year as well as increases the national debt year after year which burdens, or is literally a “tax” though “unseen” on all Americans.

    To measure the negative, costly impact of this “unseen tax” foisted upon the hard-working, unsuspecting American citizen by self-serving congresspersons, we need to observe the loss or reduction in the purchasing power/strength of the dollar or money that these workers earn.

    Comparing the amount of goods and/or services that $100 purchased in 1984 to how much or how many dollars one would need in 2018 to purchase the identical amount of goods and/or services, the answer is about $243.25 (from January 1984 to January 2018). That is the actual loss/reduction in the purchasing power of the dollar, a.k.a. the “unseen tax.“ (This calculation is available from the CPI Inflation Calculator and the Cumulative Inflation Calculator, both of which rely on the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics and can be found on website of InflationData.Com: Inflation Calculator.)

    That is correct. One would need $243.25 in 2018 to purchase exactly what $100 purchased in 1984. This is the “unseen tax“ on all Americans, all races, the lion’s share of this loss in purchasing power of the dollar, most economists would agree, is because the federal government year after year borrows money and does not repay the money it borrowed at year’s end, thus creating a yearly deficit and an increasing national debt.

    In FY 2017, as President Trump was trying to lower the taxes on the working men and women of America and reduce government spending tied to special-interest minded congresspersons’ “goody programs,“ several members of Congress who oppose him voted to spend more money than the federal government collected from the “seen tax.“ According to the Congressional Budget Office, the federal government borrowed – and did not repay – a little less than $700 billion in 2017 which, it bears repeating, increased the national debt causing the purchasing power of the dollar to lessen.

    Currently, in FY 2018, the national debt is again rising and is expected to reach about $21 trillion as the federal government, according to the Congressional Budget Office, is projected to borrow about $833 billion – over the repeated objections of the conservative mandate spearheaded by President Trump who has requested Congressional cutbacks in spending on many programs – to pay for certain special-interest minded congresspersons’ social “goody programs,“ some of which are welfare programs that these congresspersons want to hand out to various constituents in exchange for votes to get them re-elected. This, at the expense of the working men and women of the country as their dollars will buy less (“unseen tax”) at year’s end because of the federal government’s borrowings.

    [An aside: The welfare idea began during the administration of Franklin Roosevelt (1933 – 1945) designed to help only the neediest of the needy, but over these many years has grown to a large bureaucracy where certain self-serving members of Congress vote/arrange to give millions upon millions of people financial assistance with little incentive for those millions to look for work and take responsibility to pay for their and their family’s own way.]

    It bears repeating, according to the Congressional Budget Office, the federal government borrowed a little less than $700 billion in 2017, and is projected to borrow around $833 billion in 2018. According to a White House press release, the federal government spent more than $700 billion (in total, government projected federal spending is near $1 trillion on more than 80 federal assistance programs) in 2017 on WELFARE and is projected to spend even more in 2018 in order to provide food assistance, housing and utility assistance, medical care/insurance assistance, etc., etc., not only to illegals, a.k.a. unauthorized immigrants, a.k.a. deportable aliens (Department of Homeland Security estimates there are 16,000,000+ and that 72% of these, according to the U.S. Census Bureau, primarily benefit from welfare food programs and Medicaid and CHIP through their U.S. born children), but also to millions of native-born and naturalized Americans who refuse to work even though they are physically and/or mentally able.

    These aforementioned millions and millions of illegals and millions and millions of native-born and naturalized Americans who are not working to earn, even though they are physically and/or mentally able, are those conspiring with special-interest minded congresspersons to impose the “unseen tax“ on unsuspecting American working men and women as the federal government borrows the money (and does not repay it year after year) to pay for the welfare handouts.

    In the conspiratorial, special-interest minded congresspersons’ efforts to impose the “unseen tax“ – by increasing welfare spending for those who are not truly needy, thus continuing to bloat the federal budget – upon the unsuspecting hard-working American men and women, all races, they often employ a false, misleading narrative. One of the misleading statements they use is “it is the American way to provide for the poor.“

    For the purpose of clarification, a person is poor because he/she has no income. One has no income because he/she is physically and/or mentally unable to work (this is the true NEEDY), or too lazy and irresponsible to work. It is unreasonable and unfair for the self-serving congresspersons to pass legislation which further burdens the American workers forcing him/her through both this “seen and unseen tax” to pay for both the millions upon millions of illegals who are in the country as well as the millions upon millions of American citizens too lazy and irresponsible to work and pay for their and their family’s own way. These millions upon millions are not the true individuals in NEED. The American way is to provide for those who are truly in NEED; not those falsely claimed by self-serving congresspersons to be “the poor.”

    Any individual American is always permitted, by law, to give away as much of his/her property to whomever they choose if they wish to assist another whom they perceive as NEEDY or to give to charity organizations, etc. Moreover, as previously disclosed, the American workers are willing to help their truly “NEEDY” fellow Americans who are physically and/or mentally unable to help themselves.

    Currently, in July 2018, there are approximately 40 million (millions!!) – which number encompasses millions upon millions of illegals, a.k.a. unauthorized immigrants, a.k.a. deportable aliens – receiving food stamps (SNAP), costing the taxpayers, just for this program alone, about $70 billion this year. Millions upon millions of these, perhaps 20 million (millions!!) or more are receiving yearly housing and utility assistance while millions upon millions more – including illegals – are receiving medical care/insurance, etc. The total projected cost to taxpayers will exceed $700 billion adding to the national debt as the federal government will be borrowing and not repaying what it borrowed to pay this $700 billion expense. It bears repeating, this perpetuates the “unseen tax“ on the American worker, which will decrease the purchasing strength of his/her earnings each year.

    To put the severity of the U.S. national debt, currently about $21 trillion according to the Bureau of Public Debt, U.S. Department of Treasury, (because year after year the federal government has been borrowing [from 2008 through 2016, Obama years, he and special-interest minded congresspersons legislated and borrowed about $10 trillion, thereby doubling America’s national debt] and does not repay for programs such as welfare handouts) into the proper perspective, the massive debt equates to the reality that every individual in America (estimated to be about 327,634,618) is responsible for about $64,358; or that every household in America (estimated to be about 126,224,000) is responsible for about $167,050.

    What a calamity will befall the approximate 126,224,000 households of the working men/women, all races, of America who owe about $167,050 each on that about $21 trillion in U.S. debt when the creditors suddenly demand payment in full. Will they be prepared to have their water shut off, their power shut off, even eviction from their dwelling? What if the creditors demand only 50% payment on the $21 trillion debt: that would be about $83,525 each household must provide?

    All we unwary Americans have failed to heed the universal maxim: “the borrower becomes servant to the lender“ in continuing to idly stand by and permit special-interest minded congresspersons to pass legislation requiring the federal government to borrow hundreds of billions of dollars year after year – which it does not repay – to finance “goody programs“ including welfare handouts to the undeserving.

    Currently – now in 2018 – there exists a THREAT to our national security. We the working men and women, all races, must bring about the end of our federal government’s borrowing and borrowing year after year to pay for millions upon millions of people in the U.S. who are not contributing their fair share of effort and shouldering their individual patriotic responsibility to keep the nation strong. Instead, these people – including millions of illegals – are in effect both stealing from the hard-working American taxpayers as well as weakening the economic strength of the nation through welfare, low-income assistance programs which, as previously disclosed, are legislated by special-interest minded congresspersons who, along with periodically spreading other disinformation, falsely claim that millions of people in/come to America to be free when in reality the record clearly establishes that many millions are not here helping to make/keep America strong and free but are here as FREELOADERS.

    Individuals who are recipients of the welfare handouts – unless they are native-born or naturalized American citizens physically and/or mentally unable to work – are partaking in an “enemy attack from within” on the sovereignty of the nation weakening its national and international economic strength; and such people must, realistically, be observed as treasonous.

    All the special-interest minded congresspersons who legislated to spend over $700 billion and the borrowing of almost the same in support of the welfare handouts in 2017, and again legislating to spend much more than $700 billion and the borrowing a projected $833 billion for welfare handouts in 2018 – against the wishes of President Trump who requested substantial cutbacks to these programs in 2017 and 2018 – should, realistically, be viewed as complicit in such treason.

    Both the recipients of the welfare excesses and the self-serving congresspersons legislating for them are a THREAT to the national security of America and must be dealt with accordingly. NOW, not later, NOW. We the patriotic Americans, native-born and naturalized of all races who work for a living responsibly paying for ourselves, our children, our families must identify and stop the FREELOADERS and their congressional allies who are driving the working people deeper into debt year after year and decreasing the purchasing power/strength of what we earn, therein threatening our national security.

    The solution to reverse this THREAT to our national security is to implement, at the very least, the following four adjustments:
    1) As previously stated, we must put in place men and women in Congress who will vote/pass legislation that only supports the conservative mandate that President Trump spearheads in his request to reduce/cut back spending/borrowing on “goody programs,“ such as welfare for the millions and millions of illegals, a.k.a. unauthorized immigrants, a.k.a. deportable aliens, as well as the millions and millions of Americans too lazy to work. This will enable our federal government to pay down our national debt and as the approximate $21 trillion debt is paid down, the “unseen tax“ on the American people will lessen enabling him/her to acquire additional goods and services for his/her hard-earned wages: more bang for the buck. And, as the national debt is paid down, America grows in its national and international strength.
    2) We must get in place toll-free numbers, websites, and other addresses enabling the law-abiding American citizens to easily report suspected illegals whether they be observed in a dwelling, at a church, on a job site, in a store, or wherever/whenever. NOW. As well, we must review a program which permits the Attorney General of the U.S. to deputize the average citizen enabling him/her to make a citizen’s arrest – if need be – anywhere – when an illegal is suspected/identified. The willing American citizen must be empowered to assist in the enforcement of the law to both keep his/her neighborhood safe and America strong and free.
    3) We need to recertify anyone and everyone who receives any type of welfare handouts. This will enable us to identify the millions upon millions of illegals and the millions upon millions of those native-born and naturalized American citizens who have been/are too lazy and irresponsible to work and pay their, their children’s, their family’s own way. As well, it will allow us to uncover those who are truly needy and deserving our assistance.
    i) A simple common-sense system of identity verification might be, for example, 3 to 5 adults or institutions must affirm that the person in question is, indeed, who he/she claims to be. This will disclose the millions of illegals.
    ii) Another simple common-sense system of identity verification might be, for example, reviewing the state and/or federal income tax returns of the person in question. Someone 25 years old should have 7-9 years of tax returns, someone 35 years old should have 17-19 years of tax returns and so on. Of course, there would be exceptions/allowances for disability, education, incarceration, etc. If there are no corresponding tax returns the person in question has been stealing from the welfare hand out programs. This would identify millions of illegals, and those who are physically and/or mentally able, but too lazy or irresponsible to work.
    4) We must get the incentives in place which will direct the able-bodied men/women back into the workforce so they can individually provide for themselves, their own children, their own families; and get the illegals out of the country. Illegal immigrants, especially the unskilled, pose competition for jobs to American citizens, many in the inner-city, and puts downward pressure on these Americans’ wages.

    “Anyone who does not provide for their own relatives and especially for their own household has denied the faith and is worse than an unbeliever (infidel)“ (1 Timothy 5:8). “If anyone will not work neither shall he eat” (2 Thessalonians 3: 10-12).

    Singapore has no welfare, no low-income assistance programs on the large scale of the U.S. If one is physically and mentally able to work and does not, he/she gets no check from the government. It does not permit 16,000,000+ illegals to dwell in the country. The truly needy are cared for. Knowing that the government is a last resort and not a first resource, and that if one does not work he/she won’t have the money to buy food, pay rent, pay utilities, pay for medical care/insurance is a powerful incentive to find a job! Singapore’s unemployment rate is much better than the U.S. as it is around 2%.

    1. I grew up in Rhodesia in the 2 decades before the start of the Mugabe dictatorship. I was fluent in the local common inter-tribal dialect and had a great interest in the stories of many workers whose families back in Zambia & Malawi but had limited food or jobs and were totally dependent on their family members who had jobs in Rhodesia.
      It was of great interest to me and perhaps to you that in the late 1950’s the average per capita income of folks in Singapore and in Tanganyika (now Tanzania) was the SAME ! a very low $320. Today those incomes are more like $65,000 vs $1,000. Primarily, imo due to good government – same can be said of Botswana now with the 2nd highest per capita in Africa.


  8. God bless you sir. Thank you for your dedication.

  9. I just heard you today on the Jeff Katz show and you were sure a pleasure to hear. I can’t wait to read and hear more about you.

  10. I heard you talking with Jeff Katz on WRVA last night. I hope the mass exit from facebook got their attention.

  11. Excellent address to the D-49 School Board. Looks like the entire room agreed with your assertions! You were wearing an AF shirt. Were you military at some point? I’m and USAFA grad and just curious.

    1. Author

      Our son is a 2018 graduate of the USAFA and we live just a few minutes from the south gate. We’re season ticket holders, a sponsor family, host multiples on doolie-day-out, both of our boys attended the C.A.P wing on base, etc. Big AFA supporters.

  12. Mr. Wilburn, thank you for your courage and clarity in speaking out about the fallacy of Critical Race theory. You obviously made a big impression on the school board, and now your words are in the public through online news. You change lives!

  13. Have you thrown your hat in for U.S. Senate 2022 yet?

  14. Love you, man! I heard your school board speech on Sebastian Gorka’s show today. I just played it for my wife on, I hate to admit it, YouTube. I also shared it with several friends via email. THANKS!!!

    1. Gorka is an immigrant who repeatedly has endorsed violence against Americans. But he’s the «right» kind of violent immigrant, amirite?

      1. Author

        What an asinine statement. There is no such thing as a “right kind of violent immigrant.” Any and all such people are the WRONG kind of immigrant. Period.

  15. Sir: You’ve got the right stuff. I know it’s a lot to ask and it places a burden on your family, but we need leaders like you to run for office. Our country is pulling itself apart along racial lines and only informed Black leaders such as yourself can stop the destruction. I know racism exists in our society as it does in all. I’ve traveled the world in the Army and there is no place free from it. But to combat it, we must have dialogue and dialogue doesn’t start with, “you’re White; therefore, you are a racist.”

  16. Terriffic speech and inspiring. Thank you.

    I once worked with a man from Liberia. He had not attended school until he was 12 years old. He did, however, graduate with honors at 18 and won a physics scholarship. He returned to Liberia only to be told his degree was not needed, but perhaps he could get and electrical engineering degree which he obtained. Unfortunately, tribal warfare broke out and he had to flee his country.
    Instead of being sad and depressed, he saw this as and opportunity. He once made the statement to me that in this country (USA) he could be an anything he wanted.

    God bless,
    John

  17. Mr. Wilburn,
    I saw your school board clip and your interview with Fox & Friends on the morning of 8/22/2021. Your perspectives are refreshing and truthful. We cannot let the schools teach children that they are oppressed. The United States is the most diverse country in the world, presenting endless opportunities to those who want to want to succeed.

    God bless you in your efforts to communicate the truth.

  18. Mr. Wilburn,

    You are my new hero.

    1. Author

      Thank you, Jeffrey, but believe me – there are others far more deserving of the title “hero.”

  19. All we need to say is “Amen” after listening to you on YouTube addressing the Colorado Springs school board.
    We live in Dillon, Co thirty years. We are 85 years old, never had a problem with racism.

    We went to school with blacks, served in the military, traveled with black friends. But, it now seems the Lefties are trying to create problems and divide us; can’t believe it’s happening here in our mountain community.

    Thank goodness for people like you who are not afraid to stand up and speak the truth.

    You should run for some political office to help fight this divisiveness, which is really the injustice.

  20. YOU ARE THE HOPE OF AMERICA!

    Thank you for what you are doing and the hope you give for the future!

    I LOVED hearing you at the recent school board meeting and the wisdom you stated. I especially loved what you say to your children about being victims of their own choices, all American children need to hear this! You are a great Dad!

    I am praying for you!

    1. Author

      Prayers are sincerely appreciated.

  21. I appreciate so much what you did with the School board, but be aware that CRT proponents are sly and will say they aren’t officially teaching CRT verbatim, but they’ll ll insert aspects and tenets of it into the school curriculum. Thank you so much for taking direct action and raising awareness so that parents may pay even closer attention to what their children are hearing in school and can then challenge and stop the continued division that the school system is desperately attempting to sow.

  22. I was watching your little song and dance at the Colorado Springs School Board trying to conflate CRT something you really don t know shit about with the actual teaching of US History. I wonder how people in the meeting would react if they knew that you were fronting for a right-wing organization with a white supremacist agenda

    I don’t know what dimension you live in, but Did you know the story of a Black police officer in CS who infiltrated the KKK branch in the City…. I could write an encyclopedia full of arguments to counter your specious fact-free statements.

    But watching your buckdancing act I feel like this would be no different than a Jew denying the Holocaust… As a matter of fact why don’t you just call your organization
    Niggahs Against Black People. I know that your minstreI show don’t play in Denver

    1. Author

      Wow, now that’s a lot of anger and personal attacking. “Song and dance”, “buck dancing”, “minstrel show”…man am I ever talented.

  23. Dear Derrick Wilburn: I listened to your speech at the Colorado Board meeting. I applaud you on your position regarding Critical Race Theory…it only cripples our society and does not strengthen our society.

    However, I cannot agree with you on your position that racism in America does not exist. Your children may be victims of the three things you mention: laziness, ignorance, and poor decision-making. But not all Black children are victims of this but instead are truly victims of racism.

    When you are in high powerful positions, wealthy, rich Blacks–you aren’t exposed to what Blacks who are not in these positions have to go through (even Blacks who are in high powered positions do experience racial unfairness). I have been on both sides of the fence so I can tell you that you are blind to racial problems in this country. No, I don’t support Progressive Blacks regarding racism…but I cannot deny that racism is still not a problem in this country.

    I have been a Republican all my life. I am so happy to see more and more Blacks leave the Democratic party and join the Republican or Independent party. However, my concern with Republican Blacks is that you put on a blindfold when it comes to racism in America.

    I don’t believe in racism but I cannot deny that it does not exist.

    1. Author

      I have never stated that “racism in America does not exist.” I’ve never said that because that isn’t true. Of course it exists. There are racists in America just like there are racists in every country.

      As for “When you are in high powerful positions, wealthy, rich Blacks–…”, I am none of these things. I’m not in a high powerful position & am far from being wealthy – nor do I hang around with Blacks who fit this description. I’m not sure where you’re getting your image of me from but it is very, very flawed.

      I am not “blind to the racial problems in this country”, I simply stated that I am not oppressed. Your insistence that I deny racism exists is an accusation of your own making, I’ve never, ever claimed that.

  24. You do not speak on behalf of black people at all. I bet you don’t even have a black friend. You are a coon and you are not a part of us. Goodbye.

    1. Author

      Of course I don’t speak on behalf of Black people, I speak on behalf of me. Who else can I speak on behalf of? I have friends of all colors but who I don’t maintain for friends are angry, narrow-minded bigots who deny Blacks the ability to think independently and exercise individualism.

      Name-calling is a tactic that has been mastered by most 3rd graders. Congratulations, you really excel at it.

  25. its funny how some of the wealthy black folks cry this countrys so oppressed to black people. anyone can go read articles by horace cooper from projest 21’thomas sowell’shelby steele’larry elder ‘candice owens’denzel washington and many many more black people about being oppressed.they all state that a good education and ‘hard work you can succeed.also if this country so oppressive to black people why are there so many black people from many countrys risking their lives trying to get here .there doing it because they know this is a country of opportunity. mr wilburn your a great guy .

    1. Author

      re: “its funny how some of the wealthy black folks cry this countrys so oppressed to black people”

      ALL such people – Oprah, Lebron James, Barack and Michelle Obama, JayZ, Colin Kaepernick, ALL of them choose to live in exclusively White communities, send their kids to privileged mostly White schools, then complain about the racism of the White people whom THEY CHOOSE to live amongst. These people don’t make millions and move into Black communities in our inner cities and send their kids to be educated in the local public schools. Ever. Wonder why not?

  26. I have just seen your school board clip denouncing critical race theory. Thank you. I am donating money now, and will continue to do so in future.

  27. So well said and received by the audience. Only one school board member stood up which is why we are in so much trouble. The question is, “Why?” Why do they believe we need to teach our children racial divide? Will we be able to survive 3 1/2 more years before our country is destroyed? We need to get on school boards NOW. And continue to speak up.

  28. My comment to an American! My response to a fellow American. “I DID NOT SEE DERRICK WILBURN, AMERICAN, NOTED IN THE AMERICAN NEWS OR ON TV OR GIVEN A CITIZENSHIP AWARD FROM OUR GOVERNMENT.
    THIS COUNTRY COMMUNICATES ON WHAT HE TALKS ABOUT ON HOW WE HATE, DISAGREE, COMPLAIN, OSTRACIZE, JUDGE, AND BLAME OTHERS WHERE IT STARTS IN THE FAMILY OR ELEMENTARY SCHOOLS.”

    With respect and honor,

    Ps It is too bad we cannot stick together as Americans, not some color, sex, religion, etc.

  29. This is coming from an old Tennessean who grew up in a county where there were no Black people and who was taught to fear Black people as a child. Now some of my good friends and one of the best bosses I ever had are Black. They’re not African American, they’re not Black Americans, they’re Americans just like me. i have to say a lot that was gained has been lost since 2008. Thank you so much for what you do and are doing. Prayers are with you for great success.

  30. DW,
    Americans are being censored / banned from Fakebook and Twitter for posting PSAs of truth. So plz flush those buttnuggets. Americans needs to start using Gab. Thx

  31. Precisely. Ever wonder why so often we hear descriptors like African American, Hispanic, Asian American but never an Irish or Italian, German or Australian American. There is hardly anyone anywhere whose DNA is 95% or more of only one ancestry.
    Go spend a bit of time in a place like Brazil and those that wish to classify people as to their race will very quickly give it up. Everyone is simply a shade of beige – get used to it.
    Classifying other humans is what has been done in many places and times past and present eg South Africa, Rwanda, Germany,Nigeria, Spain, Saudi Arabia, India etc and every time it was done, it was ugly, intolerant and regressive. There is nothing progressive about it, nothing!

  32. Just viewed your address to a local school council. Your comparison of two babies really stuck home, and I am long way way across the Pacific pond. In Australia we are now facing this push to divide our society along racial lines and make us all captive to past. I Anglo Celt, once called a white Aussie, I defended our beliefs in Vietnam an spat on by other whites at the time for my trouble. I an conservative on many things but liberal, or rather a good old Labour party socialist on community welfare and looking after the less well off, so I may not agree on many things you may hold close, but on killing racism yes. I will accept being labeled a racist by a black person, I know where you are coming from, but not from any woke, liberal, easily offended, white social justice warriors who now loudly proclaim their superiority in Australia. Our historical forth right speech is now being nobbled by these idiots.

  33. Dear DERRICK WILBURN,
    I’ll be at your next event to discuss your lack of facts and ignorance of politics and Amerikkkan history.

    Republicans and Democrats are terrorist who have done nothing specifically for Foundational Black americans.

    The only law on record is Jim crow.
    No financial benefits or government grants have ever been giving specifically to Foundational Black Americans.

    Unlike your government who daily gives handouts to everyone on the planet. There no proof or evidence to support anything you claim.

    I’m available to debated you ignorance anytime after 2pm.

      There is NO proof or evidence to support ANYTHING I have ever claimed? That is quite a bold statement. In a recent speech I stated that Chicago currently has a Black Democrat mayor, finding evidence to support that claim would not be difficult. In that same presentation I discussed the legalization of recreational marijuana in Colorado in 2012 and the passing of Prop. 47 in California in 2014. Both of these statements are likewise easy enough to find supporting evidence as to their accuracy.

      Based on this post (“I’m available to debated you ignorance..”) and the similar articulation challenges demonstrated in the direct email you sent me I tend to doubt you possess the linguistic skills necessary to debate me, not to mention factual flaws of your own. The ONLY law on record affecting Blacks in America is Jim Crow. First of all, “Jim Crow” isn’t “a” law. Secondly, guess you missed out on the Civil Rights Act, Voting Rights Act and a slew of others.

      I’ll see you at my next event.

  34. The chrysalis:

    Right now, in this country, there is a social ethical emphasis in only eradicating the abuse of the human outer shell. Yet it could be said, society may largely contribute to the crippling of a person while cheapening the deeper priority and properties of a persons true nature, or essence. We see how society in the name of equity: esteems and coddles, (free trophy syndrome) a person, while others in prejudice: alienate or harm (hate complex) the outer shell; both equal an injustice, both not helpful toward growth and developmemt. There has been less vigilance or meaningful ethical interest and advancement: in discovering what lies beneath the surface of the chrysalis. Do we care to help or allow the chrysalis to discover it’s inherent, innermost gifts, talents, purpose and inclinations? How might this approach motivate and inspire confidence, while propagating a persons goals or path? Would this ideal dispel racism and discrimination? Would we do better celebrating a persons composition more than defining one just by the outter sheen? How might this benefit the chrysalis’ value and future. Can this compliment the community in which a person resides, may serve, and thrive in? Can this bring unity and dissolve division? Has our discernment been void of solidarity; have our judgements been cheap? This is real social justice: helping one see their own content, that they are worthy. That’s the goal right? Not to, instead, tell an individual that their shell will be their identity by which they will be judged; and must fight for their outer worth. If only we then see that the development, blind of the surface, is ripe with good character or immature of virtue; should we then be prepared to assess appropriately. Then we may be equipped to instruct in the way of further developmemt, in the best interest to those with need of refinement. We can then clearly commend ones who are endeavoring to cultivate themselves or have achieved the extraordinary. This is the real fight: to build character, but character is not surface level. According to content alone, should we esteem or denounce proportionately a persons by their actions. By their character alone can we rightly judge. How long will we place more merit on the external verses the internal. How long will we allow any group or person to be held superior or inferior in a land where all men are created equal. All people are responsible for the consequences of their decisions or actions: on earth and eternally. How long will we be primitive minded creatures in our thinking, with good intentions, lacking substance?

  35. I KNOW that you are doing the African American community a disservice (period). You live in a bubble. Read more, pay attention, educate yourself. What have you done to help the community? You remind me of the character in “Django”.

      What have I done? Let’s start with providing dozens and dozens of Black college students JOBS working paid internships in Washington D.C., internships that have opened doors and resulted in opportunities typically reserved exclusively for the privileged few. [http://www.poccinterns.com]. Wonder what you have done.

  36. I just watched your video. Dayum! I wish you could travel to every single school board in America! Thank you!!

  37. There once was a coward named D,
    A politician he wanted to be,
    He spent most of his time,
    Getting mad ’bout my rhyme,
    He’s irrelevant – I think you’d agree…

      Not allowing someone to post disparaging remarks about me onto my own website is not a act of cowardice. I’ll tell you what is cowardly. A coward is someone who sets up a fake email address then uses it rather than his true identity to troll & insult people on the internet. That’s a coward.

      So for the record you have now:
      – Feigned legal authority and sent me a letter threatening a lawsuit
      – Claimed to own a copyright that you do not own
      – Used that false claim to tattletale to YouTube on me (to get me to remove YOUR OWN words, which speaks to how proud of your work you must be)
      – Used a fake email account to hide your identity and posted comments here

      And you have the nerve to call ME the coward.

      I’m no coward, Hoffman. There is not a cowardly bone in my body. Not even one. If you ever want to get together so you can look me in my eye, call me “Mister Tough Guy” and explain the problems you have with me, just say when and where and I’ll be there.

  38. Come on Mister Tough Guy Wilburn… why are you deleting comments again?

    1. Author

      I’m tough enough that I don’t pretend I’m someone else when commenting on the internet, or anywhere else for that matter. You see, Hoffman, even tho you’ve set up a phony yahoo mail you still have an IP. Apparently you don’t know what those are. ISP’s (internet service providers) assign all customers an internet protocol (IP) number and its just like a finger print, no matter where you go on the web it never changes. We all have one and as a WordPress admin on this (and other) sites I can see all IP’s of all posters. Yours is 209.248.79.xxx and it tells me everything. Name, address, service provider, …everything.

  39. There is but ONE species of homo sapiens on this planet. I am glad that we are related. I am certain that you understand those who will disparage and criticize you have little or no self esteem and need to continue to promulgate victimization and hatred, especially to a “brother” who is supposed to carry on the bullshit racist crap that is intentionally presented to divide us all and tear apart this beautiful country. I know very little about you, however your rhetoric is refreshing. hopefully true to your heart, intelligent and desperately needed, and guided by God’s hand.
    I wish you great success and will be following your activities. Bravo.

  40. Mr. Wilburn, I’m a fellow Colorado resident and I’ve just discovered your speech at the School Board about CRT which touched me deeply as I have been through the CRT training at my teaching job which astonished me and I agree with every word that you said. I am an immigrant from east Asia. I grew up in a brutally oppressive authoritarian regime where I was brainwashed to believe that the ruling Party is our savior that defended us from Western colonizers, imperialists, invaders and oppressors, and we must comply with everything that the ruling Party tells us to do. Anyone who questioned that narrative would lose their job, being harassed constantly, even imprisoned and tortured. I always felt something was wrong with this narrative but until I came to the US and had access to the actual internet and information which is forbidden in my own native country, I had no idea what dark history that this ruling Party has created in my country that persecuted tens of millions of people to death. Here I had my awakening and finally understood that the Marxist class struggle theory that divides people into classes/categories/groups and pit them against each other, is the root cause of all of our pain and suffering. Here in the US I’ve finally found my identity: an individual human being with my own mind, and the freedom to express my mind.

    Last year, I started a job at a federally funded organization that’s supposed to help K-3rd kids with their reading skills here in Colorado. Then I sat through 8 days of “training” that had absolutely NOTHING to do with how to help children read. It was the infamous critical race theory that I had heard a lot about but finally had a chance to experience. It was every bit as you described: it divides people into “oppressors” and “oppressed” according to their skin colors, and the “oppressors” must acknowledge their own guilt of simply being who they are; and the “oppressed” must admit to being victims of white supremacy. I spoke out and shared my own experience, as an actual immigrant from another country, as a minority, as the mother of a child with special needs, that I am NOT oppressed here in the US, on the contrary, the US welcomed me with open arms, gave me a second chance to life, gave me a voice to express myself, gave me opportunities for personal and professional development and growth, and I feel more free and have more dignity here than I had ever felt in my native country.

    As soon as I finished speaking, the supervisor of the organization told me not to share this with the big group (I shared in a zoom breakout room). Then after we returned to the big group, she said to everyone: “if you’re white or white-presenting, you must recognize your white privilege”. I was astonished. “white -presenting” was clearly targeted at me as I was the only non-white person who spoke out against their narrative. Yet they silenced me and labeled me in a training session that was titled “Anti-Oppression” training — and the first thing they did after hearing my opinion, was to stifle me. I was so insulted and offended. I wanted to quit right there but decided to stay so I could do my part to make sure that I never, ever bring this harmful Marxist narrative to our children in school. I stuck it out for a year and throughout the school year I’d been through more similar training like this. I did not speak out again as I learned from that first day that these people are exactly like the ruling Party in my native country — they are authoritarians. Arguing with them is futile.

    It is extremely saddening for me to have finally escaped an authoritarian regime, then to find it here being forced on our schools and our children. I’ve come to this country to be away from the brainwashing of Marxist doctrine. But I won’t give up telling the truth. I’m glad to have found your website and I will support your effort to bring sanity, unity and the core American value: freedom back to this amazing country which I’m extremely fortunately and grateful to be in, and cannot simply sit and watch it torn apart by Marxist ideologies that have proven to fail over and over again.

    — With Regards, Amani

  41. Derrick Wilburn, please come over to England and spread your message here. We need you on every TV channel and media outlet to teach the population how things should be viewed. This country is full of “victims” and “oppressed” black people and they really need to hear what you have to say. You have now become somewhat of a hero to me and mine!

      Thank you, Ann. Yes, telling ANY people group -regardless of ethnicity- that they are oppressed victims is not going to produce positive results for that people group nor any others in society. I’d be happy to come spread the word. I go where I am asked.

      1. Just got to find someone who would ask you but I’ll tell you now, it won’t be the BBC, steer clear of that organisation! I have no influence at all but have put a post about you on Facebook in the hope that someone with influence will take note.
