In the progressive paradise of Portland, wokesters try to undo “gentrification” and lure blacks back to historically black neighborhoods

Here in the progressive paradise of Portland, wokesters try to undo “gentrification,” and lure blacks back to historically black neighborhoods:
https://www.wweek.com/news/2022/05/25/the-city-of-portland-tried-to-undo-gentrification-black-portlanders-are-conflicted-about-the-results/
This idiocy underscores the contradictions and hypocrisies of “diversity ideology.” On one hand, they extoll the virtues of “bringing us all together in some kind of global melting pot” and that segregation is an evil concept, yet here they are, trying to lure blacks back into segregated neighborhoods, so they can proudly display them to the world like some kind of zoo.
You see, here in PDX we had the reverse of what happens in other cities...I called it “black flight,” as opposed to White flight. Rather than Whites escaping from inner-city blacks to the suburbs, we had blacks escaping their inner city neighborhoods to live in the burbs. This occurred in the 80’s, due to “gentrification,” with Whites casting their greedy eyes on the well-made but rundown homes in the Portland “ghetto.” Blacks tended not to take great care of their homes, but the homes in North Portland were quality constructed with an artistic flair. Whites began to invade N. Portland and buy up those homes, then fix them up to live in or resell at a profit. black home owners decided to cash in their homes and sell, then move to the burbs. black renters couldn’t afford the rising rents, so they moved to the housing projects in the burbs supplied by our Woke city council (and paid for by White taxpayers), who claimed that it was an improvement for the negro to get away from “crime-ridden” N. Portland. Of course, now the “affordable housing” projects are crime ridden and once nice suburban neighborhoods have become crime infested with regular shootings.
With the loss of the all-black “ghetto,” the liberals are crying about how we’ve “lost” cultural uniqueness of our very own negro neighborhood and are trying to draw blacks back to N. Portland. How crazy is that?
In their clueless hypocrisy these people are suggesting, but would never directly acknowledge, that this ideology of a one-world diversitopia, where there are no boundaries and no individual cultures, contradicts the very ideal they espouse. Diversity is created by geographic and cultural isolation, that’s how different cultures become different. If they are all blended together then we become one monoculture where everybody is the same color, speaks the same language and lives the same way. Eliminating those boundaries that divide us is actually genocide of the diversity they claim to worship.
I’m actually all for this re-segregation. Let’s put them all back in N. Portland. Then they can focus their criminality right back where it belongs...on themselves.
N.S.: The wokesters may contradict themselves when they try and sound philosophical, but their agenda is always the same: To use black supremacist and reconquista thugs to pauperize, immiserate, and kill off hard-working, patriotic, White taxpayers.

For How Many Oscars was Joseph H. August Nominated?
By N.S.
Joseph H. August (1890-1947) was a top director of photography (DP) in early Hollywood, according to imdb.com with 160 credits, who died on the set at the age of 57, while shooting the William Dieterle classic fantasy, A Portrait of Jennie, starring Joseph Cotten and Jennifer Jones (the title was only coincidentally the same as Jones’ first name). Lee Garmes gallantly finished the job, without taking a credit.
In addition to Jennie, Joe August shot many other silent and sound classics and masterpieces, including Hawks’ first version of The Road to Glory (1926); his Twentieth Century (1934); Stevens’ Gunga Din (1939); Dieterle’s Hunchback of Notre Dame (also 1939); Ford’s The Informer (1935); The Whole Town’s Talking (also 1935); Mary of Scotland (1936); The Battle of Midway (1942); and They were Expendable (1945).
During the War, August served under Captain John Ford in the Field Photographic Unit of the Office of Strategic Services (which would later be renamed the Central Intelligence Agency, but the world and the American government were both very different places then), attaining the rank of lieutenant commander, U.S. Navy.
According to imdb.com, Joe August was one of the 15 founders of the American Society of Cinematographers, and the first DP to have “ASC” follow his name in the credits. However, August’s bio page also tells us that while August was considered one of the top DPs in Hollywood, he was only nominated for one Oscar while alive, for Gunga Din (1939), and then posthumously nominated for Best Black-and-White cinematography, for Portrait of Jennie (1948).
According to imdb.com’s page for Gunga Din’s awards, it wasn’t nominated for any Oscars. Although it was a masterpiece, one must keep in mind that 1939 was “The Year,” such that many brilliant pictures got short shrift (e.g., Destry Rides AgainShadow of a Doubt, and The Archers’ (Michael Powell and Emeric Pressburger’s) The Life and Death of Colonel Blimp—a Top 50 masterpiece—were also completely snubbed by the Academy.
As best I could determine, imdb.com was correct in saying that Joe August was nominated for only one Oscar, and wrong in saying that he was nominated for two Oscars.
Whoever has been running that site for Jeff Bezos has increasingly allowed for such sloppiness over the past 24 years.

Re-posted by N.S.
Via imdb.com
To be loved is a strength. To love is a weakness.
A man in love is incomplete until he is married. Then he is finished.
I have never hated a man enough to give his diamonds back.
[When asked how many husbands she’d had] You mean other than my own?
To a smart girl, men are no problem—they’re the answer.
Macho does not prove mucho.
Husbands are like fires—they go out when unattended.
I am a marvelous housekeeper. Every time I leave a man, I keep his house.
Getting divorced just because you don’t love a man is almost as silly as getting married just because you do.
I don't remember anybody's name. How do you think the "dahling" thing got started?
A girl must marry for love, and keep on marrying until she finds it.
[As quoted in the book The Humor of Sex] Personally, I know nothing about sex because I’ve always been married.
It’s never as easy to keep your own spouse happy as it is to make someone else’s spouse happy.
I believe in large families: every woman should have at least three husbands.
Being jealous of a beautiful woman is not going to make you more beautiful.
If they had as much adultery going on in New York as they said in the divorce courts, they wouldn’t have had enough time left over to run the subways or mow the grass in Central Park and they would never have a chance to make the beds at the Plaza.
The only place men want depth in a woman is in her décolletage.
You never really know a man until you have divorced him.
[on solitude] When I’m alone, I can sleep cross ways in bed without an argument.
When you are married to an actor, you feel you are nothing but an understudy to him. He only has eyes for himself. It is really the one situation I know of, where with just two people you have a triangle.
The only way to learn a language properly, in fact, is to marry a man of that nationality. You get what they call in Europe a “sleeping dictionary.” Of course, I have only been married five times and I speak seven languages. I’m still trying to remember where I picked up the other two.
The best way to attract a man immediately is to have a magnificent bosom and a half-size brain and let both of them show.
[On George Sanders, the favorite of her five husbands] I thought he hated women and that was a marvelous challenge. When I met him I said, “Mr. Sanders, I'm madly in love with you.” And he said, “Mrs. Hilton, how well I understand that.”
[After a fight with boyfriend Porfirio Rubirosa, aka "Rubi", in which he gave her a black eye] Rubi loves me. Rubirosa in Spanish means red rose; for me it means black eye. A man only hits a woman if he loves her deeply.
[N.S.: Rubirosa was a notorious gigolo of legendary sexual talent.]
[N.S.: Rubirosa was a notorious gigolo of legendary sexual talent.]
Man have always liked me and I have always liked men. But I like a mannish man, a man who knows how to talk to and treat a woman—not just a man with muscles.
[After an incident in which she got into a physical altercation with a traffic policeman in Beverly Hills, CA] You just cannot drive a Rolls-Royce in Beverly Hills anymore because they have it in for you.

Here is an excerpt of an essay by someone I've faintly heard of--John Kass:
"Our war dead didn’t risk or lose their lives to be praised and petted with flowery words.
They knew they were led to slaughter by fine words from the double-tongues about great honor and great sacrifice. But they also knew this:
They had a job to do, protecting our liberty and our nation with their bodies and blood.
I suppose they hoped, as Americans, that we would live up to our half of the bargain and not dishonor the freedom they’d given to us, that was bought with their lives."
GRA: And of course,we haven't. I've written plenty on this subject, so I won't do so again--but we--meaning the government, mostly--haven't lived up to anything--except the push for black and mex takeover and the destruction of law (unless it suits their agenda). Whites have not lived up to the bargain, by our failure to fight back AGAINST the forces who detest us.
Happy Memorial Day.

“She Wore a Yellow Ribbon,” “The Girl I Left Behind Me,” and USMC Cadences (Videos)
Re-posted by N.S.
She Wore a Yellow Ribbon (1949) Instrumental
See 2:30 or so: Basil Pouledaris re-used that riff in Lonesome Dove. It gives me chills to hear it here.
“She Wore a Yellow Ribbon” and “The Girl I Left Behind Me” Instrumentals
The Girl I Left Behind Me (U.S. Cavalry)
N.S.: This orchestration has an obvious Irish lilt. It was originally Irish, and then (possibly after being stolen by the English) was sung by federal cavalrymen, many of whom were Irish immigrants.
Between the choir’s beautiful rendition, the arrangement, and the lyrics, this is by far the best version I’ve heard, including John Ford pictures. I get goose bumps listening to it.
The Girl I Left Behind Me
For she’s as fair as Shannon’s side,
And purer than its water,
But she refused to be my bride,
Though many are the year I sought her.
Yet since the day I rode away,
Her letters oft remind me,
I’ll be returning from the fray,
To the girl I left behind me.
Oh, the maids of France are fond and free,
Their lips are more than willing,
I’ll warm the maids of Italy,
And Spanish eyes are thrilling.
Oh, the English charm me with their smile,
And yet they fail to bind me,
For my heart falls back to Erin's isle,
To the girl I left behind me.
For she's as fair as Shannon's side,
And purer than its water,
But she refused to be my bride,
Though many are the year I sought her.
Yet since the day I rode away,
Her letters oft remind me,
I’ll be returning from the fray,
To the girl I left behind me.
Oh, the English charm me with their smile,
And yet they fail to bind me,
For my heart falls back to Erin's isle,
To the girl I left behind me.
The Girl I Left Behind Me
Oh the maids of France are fair and free,
And Flemish lips are willing,
And soft the maids of Italy,
And Spanish eyes are thrilling,
Though I bask beneath their smiles,
Their charms fail to bind me,
And my heart flies back to Erin’s isle,
To the girl I left behind me.
For she’s as fair as Shannon’s side,
And purer than the water,
But she refused to be my bride,
Though manys the year I sought her,
Yet since to France I’ve sailed away,
(Or how about)
(Yet since I’ve sailed to Ameri - Kay)
her letters oft remind me,
That I promised never to gainsay
The girl I left behind me.
The hour was sad I left the maid,
A lingering farewell taking,
Her sighs and tears my steps delayed,
I thought her heart was breaking,
In hurried words her name I blessed,
I breathed the vows that bind me,
And to my heart in anguish pressed,
The girl I left behind me.
I’m lone-some since I cross’d the hill,
And o’er the moor and valley;
Such heavey tho’ts my heart do fill,
Since parting with my Sally,
I seek no more the fine and gay,
For each does but remind me,
How swift the hours did pass away,
With the girl I’ve left behind me.
Oh, ne’er shall I forget the night,
The stars were bright above me,
And gently lent their silv’ry light,
When first she vow’d she loved me.
But now I’m bound to Brighton camp,
Kind heaven, may favor find me,
And send me safely back again,
To the girl I left behind me.
Had I the art to sing her praise,
With all the skill of Homer,
The only theme should fill my lays -
The charms of my true lover.
So let the night be e’er so dark,
Or e’er so wet and windy,
Kind heaven send me back again,
To the girl I’ve left behind me.
Her golden hair, in ringlets fair,
Her eyes like diamonds shining,
Her slender waist, with carriage chaste,
May leave the swan repining,
Ye gods above! Oh, hear my prayer,
To my beauteous fair to bind me,
And send me safely back again,
To the girl I’ve left behind me.
The bee shall honey taste no more,
The dove become a ranger,
The falling waves may cease to roar,
Ere I shall seek to change her,
The vows we register’d above,
Shall ever cheer and bind me,
In constancy to her I love, -
The girl I’ve left behind me.
My mind her form shall still retain,
In sleeping or in waking,
Until I see my love again,
for whom my heart is breaking,
If ever I should see the day,
When Mars shall have resigned me,
For ever more I'll gladly stay,
With the girl I left behind me.
Then to the South we bore away
to win a name in story.
And there where dawns the sun of day
there dawned our sun of glory.
Both blazed at noon on freedoms height
where in the post assigned me.
I shared the glory of that fight
sweet girl I left behind me.
Full many a name our banners bore
of former deeds of daring
But they were days of 76
In which we had no sharing
But now our laurels freshly won
with the old ones shall entwined be
Still worthy of our sires and sons
sweet girl I left behind me.
She says my darling dear come home
my friends are rich and many
or failing that with you I'll roam
a soldier stout as any
But if you'll not come nor let me go
I’ll fear you have resigned me
my heart near broke when I sent back NO
to the girl I left behind me
For never shall my true love brave
a life or war and toiling
and never as a skulking slave
I’ll tread my native soil on
But were she free or to be freed
the battles close would find me
to Erin bound nor message need
from the girl I left behind me.
The hope of final victory
within my bosom burning.
Is mingling with sweet thoughts of thee
and of my fond returning
But should I ne’re return again
Still worth thy love that bind me
Dishonors breath shall never stain
The name I’ll leave behind me.
“She Wore a Yellow Ribbon,” from the Eponymous John Ford Masterpiece (1949)
USMC Cadences
Around her hair,
She wore a yellow ribbon,
She wore it in the spring time
And the early month of May.
And if you ask her
Why the hell she wore it,
She wore it for the young marine
Who’s far, far away,
Far away, far away,
She wore it for the young marine
Who’s far, far away.
Around the block,
She pushed a baby carriage,
She pushed it in the springtime,
And the early month of May.
And if you ask her,
Why the hell she pushed it,
She pushed it for the young marine
Who’s far, far away.
Far away, far away,
She pushed it for
The young marine
Who’s far, far away.
Behind the door,
Her daddy kept his shotgun,
He kept it in the springtime,
And the early month of May.
And if you ask him,
Why the hell he kept it,
He kept it just to blow that
Young Marine’s a** away.
Far away, far away,
He kept it just to blow that
Young Marine’s a** away.

Little known fact to me (probably not to N.S. and others) Audie Murphy wrote a few country songs, including:"When the Wind Blows in Chicago"(Roy Clark,#37 in 1965)and his last song in 1970,"Was It All Worth Losing You" which Charlie Pride recorded. I liked them.

N.S.: I was completely unaware of Murphy’s history as a songwriter. Thanks so much, GRA!

By N.S.
Keep in mind what both racial socialists and republicans alike seek to bury:
Only men have fought our wars.
Ninety percent of the men who died fighting our wars have been White. In other words, we could have won all of those wars without any non-Whites fighting for us.
tcm’s Ben Mankiewicz: “… our salute to the men and women who fought for their country.”
What women?
Ben Mankiewicz: “What made Murphy’s choice [to star in John Huston’s The Red Badge of Courage, 1951] interesting was that Audie Murphy was one of the most decorated American soldiers in the Second World War.”
Audie Murphy wasn’t “one of the most decorated American soldiers in the Second World War,” he was the most decorated American fighting man in The War, which includes soldiers, sailors, and marines (airmen still counted as soldiers or sailors until 1947), for which he paid a huge price the rest of his life.
Did tcm just broadcast The Red Badge of Courage, in order to diminish and insult Murphy’s memory?
