Anita MonCrief, a former Project Vote/ACORN employee who
testified against the organization as part of a voter registration
fraud lawsuit in Pennsylvania, has announced the formation of a new
Houston-based Tea Party organization. The Crispus Attucks Tea Party
will hold its first meeting later this month.
“We are based in a former ACORN neighborhood represented by
Sheila Jackson Lee,” MonCrief wrote in an email message. “We have
been meeting/planning since late November, and our inaugural
meeting is January 18th. The path has not been easy, and though we
have been shut out of black churches and community centers, we
managed to find a place literally two blocks from Sheila Jackson
Lee’s home. She is of course invited.”
The full press release is below:
HOUSTON, TX January 6, 2011
The Crispus Attucks Tea Party will hold its inaugural meeting at
5:30 pm on January 18th, 2011 atlocated at 2712 Blodgett, in the
3rd Ward. Guest speakers will include recently elected Texas State
House Representative James Earl White, House District 12 and Anita
Moncrief, National Spokesperson for AmericanMajority.com.
Please RSVP to RSVP@CrispusAttucksTeaParty.com
Our primary objective is to break the cycles of dependency and
decay that continue to anesthetize and hold captive too many
Black families and neighborhoods. We provide continuing series of
speakers, seminars, training and practical business support
services designed to help Blacks fully assimilate into and be
competitive in American society. Our objective is to teach
Americans the fullness of the history of Blacks in America and
to help Blacks gain control of their lives and the destiny of their
children. Only
by understanding our full and true history will we all be
liberated.
The Crispus Attucks Tea Party rapidly growing Tea Party
movement. It is a nonpartisan, neighborhood movement. It provides a
base for who realize that welfare checks and government dependency
are key elements of their destruction. The corresponding
destructive cycles have destroyed lives, families and their
neighborhoods. Government dependency holds Blacks hostage. It
precludes true liberty and forever blocks full assimilation. Our
mission includes building strong neighborhood bases made of
business people, elected officials, Constituents and Voters, living
and working in hostile areaa. Intellectually honest Constituents
living in Black neighborhoods want them to be safe and to thrive
while becoming less dependent on the tax dollars of others. These
Constituents want disciplined classrooms and globally competitive
educations for their children. They want full control of the
schools, stores and businesses within their neighborhoods. These
things will come only when Constituents living in these
neighborhoods feel that they are worthy of them.
The Crispus Attucks Tea Party provides a way for Constituents to
organize themselves around specific economic and political
issues. It works to insure that Constituents have the benefit of
divergent and truly competitive political ideas, points of
view and debates so that they may truly vote their values;
and know that their vote will be counted honestly. We provide
viable means for those living outside such areas to get
directly involved, share their skills and resources and make a
difference. We focus on education and removing the remaining
psychological shackles of poor education, hate, fear,
suspicion, superstition and insecurity. These shackles are
constantly used to isolate and manipulate Blacks and minimize
the value of their ballots.
Developing positive values and identities are critical if
America is to break demeaning cycle of dependency. Too many of,
have given up, remain locked in self defeating rituals and an
unrelenting fear of the responsibilities that come with learning.
Psychologically, many of is critical. These are both very personal
concepts. Thus, this work must be done by working, respectfully,
within Black neighborhoods. Blacks guidance and tangible support
provided by Americans who have escaped, and other Americans who are
eager to support them. We will pray for the rest who are not able
to join us at this point in time; we will be ready for them when
they are ready for us.
The Crispus Attucks Tea Party promotes and fights for the
founding principles originally defined by the Constitution and
the Bill of Rights. Our core principles are personal
responsibility, education, constrained and transparent
government, a balanced budget, self sufficiency, full assimilation
and the development of viable Black businesses that create
jobs. We identify & vet viable Conservative candidates
that are willing to fight for our mission, our principles and the
issues we embrace. Candidates and elected officials that
support our efforts and embrace our issues may join our efforts

WOW! I wish this brave lady well. Let's hope she can overcome the decades of Liberal propaganda and "helpful policies" and actually do something for these decrepit communities. The Third Ward is a wasteland - Detroit style. God bless and God Speed, Anita . You will need it.
Big Java| 1.7.11 @ 12:59PM
As a fellow Texan, I too can only say WOW!
Ken (Old Texican)| 1.7.11 @ 10:53AM
I pray God's speed and God's guidance to these people.
Amen

This is fantastic and should be replicated everywhere. I hope these folks take advantage of their second amenmdment rights, though, as I'll bet they face violence from the other side sooner rather than later.

They will undoubtedly face relentless attacks from Lee supporters which may backfire as prominent black leaders publicly admonish their tactics. The King Street Patriots are already in a nasty legal battle with the leftists in Harris County.
Terry C| 1.8.11 @ 10:32AM
Of course liberal black leaders will attack. If they can't bring the voters the bacon, they have no power. Expect a fight from the very bowels of hell against any empowerment of the people.
Jim Bell| 1.11.11 @ 12:02PM
God bless you and this effort. Get ready for the attacks from the Liberals. You are a threat to the power they've had for decades, and they'll do everything they can to discredit and destroy you and erase every sign of what you're trying to do.

Sorry that I am coming to this party late, but I am here to tell you as a black man, we have to embrace any and every person mainly blacks, with the same desire to free us a second time. What I mean by this is that we were freed from slavery by the Republican party in the 1800's and because we as a people have been suckered by the Democratic party for the last almost fifty years, have allowed ourselves to be drawn into slavery again. It is time to win our freedom again and finally for good!!!

Heard Anita on Hannity. Godspeed Black Tea!
Sharon| 1.20.11 @ 10:00PM
Ms Moncrief, I heard you this evening on Sean Hannity. I was extremely impressed with your honesty, and your foresight in the situation you were in to stand up for what's right [and WRONG].
I'm a white senior citizen, I have lived all over the country, and though I was taught to vote for the man, I leaned conservative by what I saw and heard by the Democrats, even as a young person in the 50's. I know there are good people who are Democrats, but right now, we need people like you to teach those who have heard nothing but the worse about others [conservative/Tea Party] to continue to educate.
I absolutely abhor that racism has become such a common topic by the LEFT. Our country has made mistakes in the past, but history is suppose to teach us what NOT to do when wrong. Keep reaching out: one person can make such a difference. After hearing you this evening, I KNOW you can be such a great influence for all that's right about our country.
Keep up the good work and I will continue to monitor your success with much enthusiam.
Sharon in TN
