Posted in fairness and because it's important to let the everyone share their side of the story . . . Moreover, we're following-up recent TKC FIRST NEWS given that local media is ignoring an upcoming KCPS School Board election.
After watching the clip, Mr. Bookhart very calmly explains his position and objection to a comment from School Board Member Mr. Abarca regarding racial allegiances.
This is why delving into the practice/voodoo of identity politics is a mistake from the start . . . It's always wiser to respond to communities and individuals from a place of love, respect and/or salesmanship. Note: I've heard this also works with women. But I digress . . .
Also, none of this really explains why somebody would show up at the doorstep of a political adversary during a tense campaign and amid a rhetorical dispute. An e-mail or social media exchange would've worked more effectively . . . And been far more professional.
Reality:
Political opposition showing up to the doorsteps of their adversaries is ALWAYS clumsy low-rent intimidation, it's NEVER a productive gesture to further the discourse.
TKC has known a lot of people who tried strategy and it only costs political capital and rarely makes a good impression.
Anyhoo . . . Here's the description . . .
"Spark Bookhart publicly responds to Manny Abarca's attempt to assassinate his character on Facebook."
You decide . . .
ignore all of the stupid comments that follow.
ReplyDelete^^^ actually, maybe it's wiser to pay attention to them to see that there is still a lot of nasty racism in this world.
DeleteDon't feed the trolls.
DeleteSo frightened! Free speech is your enemy, woke-fascists.
DeleteJust another battle of wits between two unarmed men.
ReplyDeleteIt never stops in KCMO "politics".
And with the school district, the kids always come LAST for these clowns.
@4:31 - Agree. Don't hear anybody mentioning the students of the KCPS!
ReplyDeleteTwo sides to every story, I told you manny is the biggest douche bag in kc

ReplyDeletethat Spook Bookfart dude is UUUUGLY!!
4:50 that may be true but no excuse for Bookhart to act like one as well.
ReplyDeleteBookharts reaction to me says he can't be trusted on any school board with his bully type tactics.
Spark is an incompetent, uncle tom and fake black nationalist who tried to ride on President Obama's coattails about 11 or so years ago. Is this just another pissy thing over who has more street cred east of Troost? Spark Bookhart has worked both sides of the fence as a Funkhouser flunky and Ajamu Webster's do-boy in the past. Spark is positioning himself to run for office either for state rep or city council--which he has a snowball's chance in hell of winning neither. Dude is a snake, trust me, I know...
ReplyDeleteFYI A little birdie said that Spark was fired from the police force for falsifying paperwork. How can Spark be an expert on education when he's never been an educator and how can he be an expert on economic development when he ain't got two nickels to rub together and lives off of a woman? People you're being took, had, hoodwinked, bamboozled, led astray, lied to, miseducated and mislead...PLEASE WAKE UP!
Dude needs a tic tac for that lower set of teeters.....lol
ReplyDeleteFollow the money.
ReplyDeleteI don't have time to listen to illiterate, fat fucking bullies who wear stupid BLM/SJW t-shirts and who show up on other people's doorsteps like a big, dumb buffoon. Animal. Just shut the fuck up and go away. And take all your fat, nasty, negro apologists with you.
ReplyDeleteManny tells the truth. Some can't handle it. Much to do over nothing.
ReplyDeleteI wonder how many takes he recorded.
ReplyDeleteHe is very articulate for a black man.
Blacks
ReplyDeleteLack
Maturity
One way tickets to Liberia is what these malcontents deserve.
Liberia don't even want them,wasted money
DeleteI actually was tempted to believe him before he started talking. Now, not really.
ReplyDeleteBtw, the comment @5:14 absolutely NAILS it.
i would trust a brown man anyday before i trusted a black man! just my personal experience!
ReplyDeleteThis dude reminds me of a black thug on Mayor Lucas' official FB page who kept threatening me and telling me he was going to expose who I was to everyone and he was gonna "make me famous." The thug was out of his mind with uncontrollable anger over a FB comment. Typical thug friend of a thuggish mayor. They're all trash. Every single last one of them.
ReplyDeleteIf the ability to spell the word "education" was made a requirement for filing for the KC school board, it would likely eliminate most of the people who end up running.
ReplyDeleteAnd winning!
Sad.
Avon Lady ringing the doorbell would scare Manny.
ReplyDeleteA whole lot of fighting for a school district that can't seem to get accredited.
ReplyDeleteManny Abarca, a communist and non parent, sits on the school board. That tells you everything you need to know about KC public schools.
