Cherry picking your facts?

Vote totals
Totals are in "Yes-No" format:

The original House version: 290-130   (69%-31%)
The Senate version: 73-27   (73%-27%)
The Senate version, as voted on by the House: 289-126   (70%-30%)

By party
The original House version:
Democratic Party: 153-96   (61%-39%)
Republican Party: 138-34   (80%-20%)

The Senate version:
Democratic Party: 46-22   (68%-32%)

The Senate version, voted on by the House:
Democratic Party: 153-91   (63%-37%)
Republican Party: 136-35   (80%-20%)

As you can see the Civil Rights Act had greater support by Republicans
than by Democrats.  As 1 Democrat in 3 opposed the bill, and only 1
Republican in 5 opposed.  Just about opposite what one would think
based on the propoganda.

Do you even know what racism is?

Most who use the word use it because it is an emotionally charged
word, just line the "N" word, but only if spoken by a white person.

Many say the Republican party is responcible for Black poverty, but have no
idea what the greatest reason for poverty in the United States is caused by.

It's not caused by low wages or few jobs, or even the rich not being taxed
enough.  I'd wager you don't know the primary cause of poverty either.
