"A lot of us have inferiority complex due to the British rule towards the anglo saxion, well in the internet age we realise that entire continents native population got wiped out America(Native americans), Australia(natives) somehow we survived. We were slaves too, seeing Vivek take a bow reminds us the psychological things our ancestors did to survive infront of the colonialists and it hurts deep we keep quite to this day. But may be because it's our own fault we were not strong enough.

We need to be humble and learn from other communities especially africans who have suffered the most I feel.

The only ethnic community that didn't take a bow or defended against the colonialist were the slavic people current day Russia..

We have a lot of learning to do... from all the other community.

And I deeply apologise the way Vivek has acted treating black community differently. No matter how educated he is or how much money he has."

I don't like him and wouldn't want him as president but if that whiteworshipper sticks to GOP by 2040, they might give him a chance by then."

THREE EXAMPLES OF SUMMARY STATEMENTS FROM AFRICAN AMERICAN PODCASTS  ABOUT ANN COULTER'S COMMENTS ON VIVEK RAMASWAMY'S PODCAST

Pancocojams Editor's Note: These summary statements from African American podcasts that covered this subject are only a small sample of the African American podcasts about this subject. 

These summary statements are given in no particular order and are numbered for references purposes only.

Podcast Summary Statement #1 [This is the summary statement for the video that is given at the top of this pancocojams post.]

From https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wH7wSl2dvcw "Coulter is When Racism Doesn't Dress Up in Public", published by Reese Waters, May 14, 2024  #anncoulter #vivekramaswamy

"Conservative author and commentator Ann Coulter told former Republican presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy that she would not back him for the GOP nomination because “you’re an Indian.” Because of course she did. She's Ann Coulter. On Vivek Ramaswamy's podcast released Wednesday, the pair spoke about nationalism and the basis of American identity.

“I agreed with many many things you said during — in fact, probably more than most other candidates — when you were running for president, but I still would not have voted for you, because you’re an Indian,” she said.

When challenged, eventually, by Ramaswamy, Coulter then said she would only vote for candidates who are WASPs — White Anglo-Saxon Protestants.#anncoulter #vivekramaswamy #racism"

****
Podcast Summary Statement #2
From https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dgIhBjC9jqk "Ann Coulter Makes RACIST Comment Against Vivek Ramaswamy!" published by Marc Lamont Hill, May 11, 2024

"Right-wing commentator Ann Coulter sparked controversy during a conversation with ex-GOP presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy. In a video capturing the exchange, Coulter bluntly expressed that she wouldn't have voted for Ramaswamy due to his Indian heritage.

During their discussion on Ramaswamy's "Truth" podcast, Coulter unabashedly stated her stance, asserting that despite agreeing with many of Ramaswamy's viewpoints, his ethnicity would have deterred her vote. She went further, articulating a belief in a core national identity centered around the acronym WASP (White Anglo-Saxon Protestant), suggesting that individuals outside of this demographic are somehow peripheral to the nation's values."

Podcast Summary Statement #3
From https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tcsIU5orXXM&t=36s "VIVEK RAMASWAMY: Now What Did We Learn??? Ann Coulter Said Not So Fast... Race & U.S. Politics", published by Calvin Michaels, May 11, 2024  #anncoulter #vivekramaswamy #Race

"The thought of inviting an openly racist public figure on your platform and thinking you had any leverage with them.  Every now and then for some folks reality sets in and becomes a painful pill to swallow.  Sadly Vivek will still indulge in the same foolery for his come up.

Now let's see how many people dance around what was said by Ann Coulter."

The beginning of this 1936 film clip features a scene of signage for a theater production of "Uncle Tom's Cabin". 

A group of Black men and Black women wearing informal clothing are singing on a concert stage behind the White girl (Shirely Temple) who is dressed in a frilly formal white dress. The faces of those Black singers are purposely cut off in this filmed performance.

LYRICS - GET ON BOARD LITTLE CHILDREN" (ALSO KNOWN AS "THE GOSPEL TRAIN")

[Lyrics/Music Trad. arr. Silvers; online source :https://genius.com/Shirley-temple-get-on-board-lil-children-lyrics

"The gospel train is a comin'
I hear it yes at hand
I hear the car was movin'
And a rumblin' through the land

Oh get on board, get on board, get on board
There's room for many a more

I hear the bell and twinkle
A coming around the curve
She's playing all her steaming power
And straining every nerve

Oh get on board, get on board, get on board
There's room for many a more

The fare is cheap and all can go
The rich and poor are there
No second class on board this train
No difference in the fare

Oh get on board, get on board, get on board
There's room for many a more

She's there and now the station
Or better don't be late
But come and get your ticket
And be ready for this train

Oh get on board, get on board, get on board
There's room for many a more
Oh get on board, get on board, get on board
Little children
There's room for many a more'

INFORMATION ABOUT THIS PLAYSTATION AD
From https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mountain_(advertisement)
"Mountain is a 2003 television and cinema advertisement launched by Sony Corporation to promote the PlayStation 2 video game console. The budget for production and advertising space purchases for the 60-second piece amounted to £5m across all markets. The commercial depicts a Brazilian crowd congregating to form a mountain of human bodies, all competing to reach the top of the pile. The campaign surrounding Mountain was handled by advertising agency TBWA London. The commercial was directed by Frank Budgen. Production was contracted to Gorgeous Enterprises, with post-production by The Mill. Mountain premiered in 30 countries on 13 November 2003.

Mountain is part of the larger "Fun, Anyone?" series, launched earlier in 2003, which aimed to increase market share for the PlayStation 2 in the family demographic. The advertisement and its associated campaign were a critical and financial success. Mountain was nominated for over 40 awards from professional organisations in the advertising and television industries, including the Film Grand Prix at the Cannes Lions International Advertising Festival, considered the most prestigious award in the advertising community. Due in large part to the buzz generated by Mountain, sales for the 2003 Christmas period exceeded expectations, and the PlayStation 2's share of the console market increased from 74 to 77 percent."...

INFORMATION ABOUT THE SONG "GET ON BOARD, LITTLE CHILDREN" (ALSO KNOWN AS "THE GOSPEL TRAIN")
From https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Gospel_Train [retrieved May 17, 2024]
" "The Gospel Train (Get on Board)" is a traditional African-American spiritual first published in 1872 as one of the songs of the Fisk Jubilee Singers.[2] A standard Gospel song, it is found in the hymnals of many Protestant denominations and has been recorded by numerous artists.

The first verse, including the chorus is as follows:

The gospel train is coming
I hear it just at hand
I hear the car wheels moving
And rumbling thro' the land
Get on board, children (3×)
For there's room for many a more

Although "The Gospel Train" is usually cited as traditional, several sources credit a Baptist minister from New Hampshire, John Chamberlain, with writing it.[3] Captain Asa W. Bartlett, historian for the New Hampshire Twelfth Regiment, reported Chamberlain as singing the song on April 26, 1863, during Sunday services for the regiment.[4]"...

INFORMATION ABOUT BLACK AMERICAN JUBILEE QUARTETS
From https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jubilee_quartet [retrieved May 17,2024] 
"Jubilee quartets were popular African-American religious musical groups in the first half of the 20th century. The name derives from the Fisk Jubilee Singers, a group of singers organized by George L. White at Fisk University in 1871 to sing Negro spirituals. The members of the original Fisk Jubilee Quartet (1909–1916) were Alfred G. King (first bass), James A. Myers (second tenor), Noah W. Ryder (second bass), and John W. Work II (first tenor).[1] Students at other historically black schools, such as Hampton Institute, Tuskegee Institute and Wilberforce University, followed suit. Many independent jubilee troupes also found inspiration in the Fisk Jubilee Singers, such as the Original Nashville Students.

The early jubilee quartets featured close harmonies, formal arrangements and a "flatfooted" style of singing that emphasized restrained musical expression and technique derived from Western musical traditions. Early quartets reinforced their respectable image by adopting uniforms that a university glee club might wear and discouraging improvisation.

In time, however, the popularity of the jubilee style spread from the universities to black churches, where quartets, singing before audiences with a tradition of enthusiastic response, began to absorb much of the energy and freedom of Gospel music coming out of Holiness churches. Groups such as the Golden Gate Quartet—originally named the Golden Gate Jubilee Quartet—infused their performances of spirituals with the rhythmic beat of blues and jazz and gradually began including gospel standards written by Thomas A. Dorsey and others in their repertoire. The Gates and other jubilee quartets gained nationwide popularity through radio broadcasts, records and touring in the 1930s and 1940s.

Other groups, such as the Dixie Hummingbirds and the Original Five Blind Boys of Alabama (formally known as the Happyland Jubilee Singers) that had begun singing in the conventional jubilee style went further, creating the more improvisational and fervent style of quartet singing known as "hard Gospel". That new style largely eclipsed jubilee singing by the 1950s.".

INFORMATION ABOUT THE NORFOLK JAZZ AND JUBILEE QUARTET ((originally published in German; retrieved on May 17,2024)
From https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Norfolk_Jazz_%26_Jubilee_Quartet
"The Norfolk Jazz & Jubilee Quartet was an American vocal ensemble initially known as the Norfolk Jazz Quartets and later recording as the Norfolk Jubilee Quartet . The quartet was one of the first groups to present recordings with close harmony in the field of jazz and spirituals .

The Norfolk Jazz Quartet had been performing in Norfolk, Virginia since early 1919 . The first recordings began in 1921, such as the first recording of Jelly Roll Morton's early jazz piece Jelly Roll Blues . On most recordings, a guitar can be heard in addition to the voices. Between 1924 and 1929 the vocal quartet recorded under the name The Negro Spirituals or Norfolk Jubilee Quartets , but continued to perform vaudeville numbers under the old name. Some recordings were also marketed as the Palmetto Jazz Quartet .

The Norfolk Jazz & Jubilee Quartet was one of the most popular vocal groups of the 1920s, recording over 110 titles over the course of its existence, first for Okeh , then for Paramount Records and, from 1937, for Decca Records . At this point the group consisted of Norman Harris and Len Williams as well as new additions Raymond Smith and Melvin Coldten. Its members began their careers in vaudeville (including in the Mamie Smith Review ) and then appeared in musicals . Their recorded repertoire initially included classic jazz and blues pieces and novelty songs from minstrel shows , until from 1924 onwards mainly spirituals such as “Father Prepare Me” were recorded on record alongside secular titles such as “Queen Street Rag” and “Louisiana Bo Bo”. [1] After the death of bassist and arranger Len Williams in 1940, the group broke up. [2]"...
