'Jingle Bells' is racist says racism specialist "professor"

A modern day secular leftist professor from Boston University says that "Jingle Bells," one of the most popular Christmas carols in the entire world, is suddenly racist, [and is probably also going to hurt the gay community once GLAAD reads the article].

According to this moron, "Jingle Bells" has a "problematic history" because it was originally performed to make fun of African Americans.

But in truth, any so-called 'professor' who tries to pass this crap off as being racist about African Americans (including those who have never been to Africa and should simply be called 'Americans' because it is not at all racist) is making fun of black people by acting as if they cannot see through this garbage.

Kyna Hamill is a BU theater historian. It appears that she is to theater history as the liberal media is to President Trump--always looking to attack the target for anything they can.

Anyway, Hamill said, "The legacy of 'Jingle Bells' is one where its blackface and racist origins have been subtly and systematically removed from its history."

If that's true, then isn't it a good thing? Doesn't it show that we've come a long way since it was sung they way she claims? 

In other words, if the offensive thing isn't treated the same way as it formerly was, like the Jews who do not treat the Old Testament's Leviticus as prescribed, (whereby a husband may stone his new bride to death at the doorsteps of her father if he discovers she wasn't a virgin) then what's the problem? 

If you want to find something wrong with your clock it's easy to do so. However, the clock is still useful if it's close to the correct time. 

People such as Hamill make their living by being hyper-critical because it makes them appear to be intelligent and "deep," rather than the chronic self-victimizing they do.

The song was written in 1857, pre-Civil War, by a Yankee named James Lord Pierpont. He was the son of a Unitarian minister and I hardly believe James meant the song to be a parody to make fun of black people any more than I believe that those who commit terrorist acts as prescribed in the Quran, are justified to be viewed the same way as Muslims who believe in peaceful coexistence.

It's the spirit of how "Jingle Bells" is sung today that matters, not the obscure alleged history it may or may not have.

Merry Christmas.
