This is Keith Boykin:

He tried to dunk on Trump on Twitter:

Keith went to Dartmouth, Harvard Law, and the Columbia Institute for Research in African-American Studies.

In all that time he never learned about the Crown Heights Riot in August of 1991 or the Freddy’s Fashion Mart attack in December of 1995.

The Crown Heights Riot was the only pogrom in American history.  Al Sharpton led a march in which protesters displayed anti-Semitic signs, burned an Israeli flag, and chanted “Death to the Jews!”  The protest turned into a riot in which Jewish homes and businesses were looted and burned and Jews were attacked in the streets.  Jewish student Yankel Rosenbaum was murdered during the riot.

At Freddy’s Fashion Mart, Sharpton said to a crowd of protesters: “We will not stand by and allow them to move this brother so that some white interloper can expand his business.”  One of the protesters armed with a gun went into the store, shot several people then lit the store on fire.  In the end, four were injured and eight (including the gunman) were dead.

This is documented history.

Or at least it was.

Al Sharpton is now an MSNBC talking head and this CNN commentator with three Ivy League degrees has no idea that it happened.

We live in a nation, where for half the people, facts simply do no matter anymore and there is no history before November 8, 2016.
