Arkansas whites–only community sued for discrimination by woman with black husband whose application to buy land was denied

A whites-only community in Arkansas is being sued by a Caucasian woman who claims her membership application was rejected because she has a black husband.

Michelle Walker, 49, claims in a lawsuit that she was discriminated against when her request to join Return to the Land (RTTL)’s 160-acre site near the rural town of Ravenden was refused in November last year.

RTTL, which was launched in 2023, is described on its website as a private association ‘for individuals and families with traditional views and common continental ancestry.’ 

Walker, a real estate worker who lives in St. Louis, Missouri, said she was not drawn to RTTL for its principles but was simply captivated by its ‘exceptionally low’ sale price. 

RTTL is selling an acre of land for $1,000, significantly lower than the average price of land in the Ozarks which is around $4,000 per acre.

Walker, who ‘self–identifies as white,’ believed she would be eligible to join the community based on its requirements and disclosed that she has Jewish ancestry on her mother’s side, according to the complaint filed Wednesday in the US District Court for the Eastern District of Arkansas viewed by the Daily Mail.

Her husband is black and they have three biracial children, per the legal filing.

She was given an interview by the community in which her background was explored, and about a month later her application was denied, the lawsuit states.

On Wednesday, she sued RTTL for ‘refusing to sell her land on the basis of race and religion,’ marking the first civil case against the group.

She cited the Fair Housing Act and civil rights laws stretching back to 1866 in support of her argument.

Walker said in her filing that her application saw her complete the group’s application form in which she answered questions about her ancestry and religion.

Walker said her father’s side of the family came to the US in the 1600s and that her mother’s side of the family was made up of Russian Jewish immigrants, per the complaint.

The filing added that Walker’s husband was specifically of Irish and African descent.

When asked about her religion, Walker allegedly replied: ‘I am a Christian. I believe Jesus died for my sins and through believing in him, I will have a heavenly eternal life.’

Walker also faced questions about whether she supported ‘segregation,’ ‘multiculturalism,’ ‘gay marriage’ and ‘transgenderism,’ the filing added.

Per the lawsuit, Walker was ‘surprised’ to see those sorts of questions on the housing application.

Democrats Are Betraying Black Voters. Imagine What They’d Do To America.

Picture this: A political party that spent 10 straight years screaming it alone could save American democracy from destruction, now caught on record ready to carve up the voting power of its most steadfast supporters just to claw back control.

That party is today’s Democrats, and the evidence should send a chill through every Republican and clear-thinking independent ahead of these midterms.

For a full decade, Democrat leaders positioned themselves as democracy’s last line of defense against Donald J. Trump and anyone who dared support him. This narrative powered their 2018 U.S. House takeover, fueled Joe Biden’s 2020 campaign, sustained his presidency, and defined Kamala Harris’s 2024 effort.

Even after crushing defeats in 2024, they kept sounding the alarm about threats to institutions and norms. Their Virginia maneuvers and fresh polling data now expose that entire pose as pure fraud.

Late last year, Democrats in the Virginia Legislature rammed through a constitutional amendment on strict party-line votes during a chaotic special session. The goal was simple: scrap the existing bipartisan redistricting rules so they could redraw congressional maps whenever they wanted, outside the usual census schedule.

They pushed it through a second time in 2026. The new lines turned Virginia’s fairly even 6-5 congressional split into a grotesque 10-1 Democrat lock. Nearly half the commonwealth’s voters back Republicans, and they would get just nine percent of the seats. Meanwhile, Democrats, with a slim electoral edge, would seize 91 percent.

Democrats put the referendum before voters on March 6, the very first day of early voting, under the slick slogan of restoring fairness. Early ballots made up roughly 45 percent of the total. The measure squeaked by with a 3.38 percent margin. Flip just half those votes and it would have lost.

The Virginia Supreme Court saw the con for what it was.

On May 8, Justice D. Arthur Kelsey delivered a ruling that killed the entire scheme. Democrats had voted on the amendment on October 31, 2025, after early voting for the general election was already underway and more than 1.3 million ballots had been cast. That timing directly violated Article XII, Section 1 of the Virginia Constitution, which demands two separate legislative sessions separated by a full House election. The court correctly tossed the process. Virginia’s lawful 2021 maps stay in place.

Cory Booker Almost CRIES as Supreme Court Deals Blow to Democrats’ Race-Based Redistricting Scheme

Sen. Cory Booker appeared on MSNOW Sunday and delivered exactly the kind of dramatic, race-obsessed rhetoric that now defines the modern Democrat Party’s response to redistricting.

Booker was reacting to recent Supreme Court redistricting rulings, including the Court’s May 11 decision allowing Alabama to use a congressional map previously blocked by a lower court. 

The decision overturned a judicial order requiring Alabama to use a court-imposed map with two largely Black districts.

Instead of treating the ruling as a constitutional debate over race-based districting, Booker framed the entire issue as a return to one of the darkest chapters in American history.

During the interview, Booker said his “soul and heart ache” over the Court’s decision and claimed America is facing a moment similar to the civil rights battles of the 1950s and 1960s.

Booker spoke about Alabama as “sacred soil,” referencing Martin Luther King Jr., Fred Shuttlesworth, John Lewis, Freedom Riders, the Edmund Pettus Bridge, police dogs, fire hoses, and the long struggle against Jim Crow.

The problem is obvious: no one is stopping Black Americans from voting.

Black voters have the same legal right to cast ballots as white voters, Hispanic voters, Asian voters, Jewish voters, Christian voters, young voters, old voters, and every other American citizen. The issue at the center of this fight is not whether people can vote, but rather whether the government should draw congressional districts based on race.

Booker and the Democrat Party do not want Americans to see the issue that way because their political strategy depends on making every election fight a moral emergency.

Stacey Abrams Says the Quiet Part Out Loud After Democrats Lose Districts Following the Supreme Court’s Blockbuster Ruling on Racial Gerrymandering

Twice-failed Democrat Georgia gubernatorial candidate Stacey Abrams said the quiet part out loud after the Supreme Court issued a ruling on racial gerrymandering.

Abrams appeared on MSNOW on Sunday to discuss the redistricting wars following longtime Democrat Rep. Steve Cohen’s decision to end his reelection bid after Tennessee Republicans erased his district with a newly drawn congressional map.

Tennessee Republicans recently passed a new congressional map that eliminated Cohen’s Memphis district.

Tennessee became the ninth state to approve a new congressional map amid the redistricting wars following the Supreme Court’s blockbuster ruling on Louisiana’s racial gerrymandering.

The case, State of Louisiana v. Phillip Callais (and the related Press Robinson v. Phillip Callais), stems from Louisiana’s woke lawmakers caving to left-wing judges and creating a second “majority-minority” congressional district.

Abrams has cried racism for years and even started a nonprofit aimed at ‘getting out the black vote.’

Recall that in 2013, Abrams created The New Georgia Project, a nonprofit to get out the black vote.

Chicago Resident Goes Off-Delivers Powerful Rebuke of Democrats Using ‘Voting Rights Act of 1965 Propaganda’: “You sick in the head and more sicker in your spirit”

Chicago resident Jessica Jackson called out Chicago Cook County Commissioners Tara Stamps and Dr. Kisha McCaskill for claiming Black voting rights are under attack by using “Voting Rights Act of 1965 propaganda” to fearmonger voters, all while ignoring the crisis impacting Black communities in the county.

The grassroots organization “Chicago Flips Red” shared her powerful remarks and noted on X, “Since 2020, nearly 2,500 homeowners have lost their properties and the equity tied to those homes through delinquent property tax sales. The U.S. Supreme Court ruled the practice unconstitutional years ago, yet families are still fighting for accountability, transparency, and relief.”

“Jackson also raises concerns about property theft tied to Cook County probate court practices, unlawful demolitions without due process, and generational wealth being stripped from longtime residents under the watch of local government.”

“Our argument: politicians continue using historic civil rights language during election season, but stay silent when Black families lose homes, land, inheritance, and wealth through government systems operating in their own backyard.”

Ms. Jackson said during her remarks, “The reality is this: Black people’s voting is not in danger, and you know it’s not, and you know it’s not. I’m 63 years old. I’ve been voting since I was 18. I have never had a problem voting.”

“Now, that may apply to my mother and father. It applies to my grandparents. Surely it does. And in fact, because it does, every single person in this room, including that Jewish lady that just got up and talked, need to really be thanking us. Really need to be thanking us for giving y’all the right to vote, for giving y’all the right to be here instead of sitting up here manipulating the Voting Rights Act like something’s getting ready to happen to our right to vote when you know that’s not true.”

“So now you all going to drag Black people in here, definitely some senior citizens, and going to have them come up here and talk about how they ‘scared to vote’.”

Rev. Al Sharpton Pushes Jim Crow FEARMONGERING as Democrats Melt Down Over Redistricting Fight

Rev. Al Sharpton appeared on MSNOW Sunday and pushed the left’s latest political narrative: Republican redistricting is supposedly the modern version of the civil rights battles of the 1960s.

The segment focused on a protest in Montgomery, Alabama, where civil rights and faith leaders gathered under the banner “All Roads Lead to the South.” 

Sharpton and the panel framed the fight over redistricting as a direct attack on black and Latino voters, comparing current political disputes to Selma, Jim Crow, and the historic fight for voting rights.

But the entire argument showed exactly how Democrats use race when they cannot win a normal political debate.

Redistricting has always been political. Democrats draw maps to benefit Democrats. Republicans draw maps to benefit Republicans. That does not suddenly become Jim Crow when the map benefits Republicans instead of Democrats.

Yet on MSNOW, the left tried to make the issue sound like a national civil rights emergency.

NAACP Sues Musk’s xAI Over Memphis Data Center Pollution

The NAACP has filed a lawsuit against Elon Musk’s xAI, alleging that the company’s massive Memphis data center is causing harmful air pollution in surrounding communities. The legal challenge targets the facility that Musk has positioned as critical infrastructure for xAI’s ambitious AI development plans, raising questions about the environmental cost of the AI boom. The lawsuit marks a significant collision between Silicon Valley’s race to build AI supercomputers and environmental justice concerns in communities hosting these energy-intensive facilities.

xAI, Elon Musk’s artificial intelligence venture, is facing a federal lawsuit from the NAACP over alleged air pollution stemming from its Memphis data center operations. The civil rights organization filed the complaint targeting the facility that Musk has described as essential to xAI’s efforts to compete with OpenAI, Google, and Meta in the race to build more powerful AI systems.

The Memphis facility represents a massive bet by Musk on scaling AI infrastructure quickly. The world’s richest person selected the greater Memphis area as a hub for xAI’s computational buildout, drawn by available industrial space, power capacity, and local tax incentives. But that rapid expansion is now colliding with community concerns about environmental impact.

The NAACP’s lawsuit alleges that emissions from the data center are degrading air quality in nearby neighborhoods, many of which are predominantly Black communities that have historically borne disproportionate environmental burdens. The legal challenge puts a spotlight on an often-overlooked aspect of the AI boom: the physical infrastructure required to train large language models consumes enormous amounts of electricity and generates substantial heat, requiring extensive cooling systems that can impact local environments.

‘Crazy ass Uncle Tom’: Democrat State Rep. Juandalynn Givan says Clarence Thomas ‘sold us back into the hands of the master’

State Rep. Juandalynn Givan (D-Birmingham) called U.S. Supreme Court (SCOTUS) Associate Justice Clarence Thomas an “Uncle Tom” and the “one who sold us out in Africa” after a recent redistricting ruling on Monday.

SCOTUS struck down a 2023 federal court-ordered Alabama congressional map on Monday.

The ruling paves the way for Republicans in Alabama to likely pick up at least one congressional seat in the 2026 midterms. Republicans currently have a narrow majority in Congress, and redistricting battles are happening in multiple states across the nation. A special master hired by a three-judge panel in Birmingham redrew the map for the 2024 congressional elections after Democrats and liberal groups were successful in their initial redistricting legal challenge. The court-ordered map resulted in Democrats picking up one seat in Alabama via Figures in Congressional District 2.

Givan criticized Thomas, a black and respected conservative jurist, for ruling to “take away two damn congressional seats” from Democrats.

“This mf’er, this man, this Uncle Tom, this Uncle Tim…and I’m so pissed and I said this today…this black man right here, I don’t know what kind of black he is. I don’t know what damn plantation this man came from. I don’t know what slave ship he was on. I don’t know what part of the slave ship he was on,” Givan said on Facebook on Monday.

“I have never in my life met a black man who has never done any damn thing at all in the position that he has that would ever benefit black people and this man is just as dark as I am. First of all, you just pissed on the 11th Circuit. You just pissed on the judges in the 11th Circuit. You literally have ruled to take away two damn congressional seats because that’s what’s going to happen. You have sided with the Republican Party. You are a freaking straw boss…a damn Uncle Tom for these people. I just don’t get it.”

Givan continued, “I do not say the N word. You have not ever heard me use the N word to say it out. I may say reggin. That’s it spelled backwards but this reggin right here, this reggin right here. This man. I’m telling y’all. This mf’er must’ve been there, he must’ve been the one who sold us out in Africa. His ancestors had to be the ones that sold us out in Africa that caused us to be chained. I don’t understand this man.”

“Today this man has forever turned the clock, he is the man who has turned us back into the hands of the master,” Givan said. “Help me understand this black man right here. Help me understand this crazy ass Uncle Tom. Help me understand this lynchman. Help me. Help me understand him.”

‘The Daily Show’ Host Charlamagne Tha God Calls Justice Clarence Thomas a Racial Slur on Television

Radio host Charlamagne Tha God referred to Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas using a racial slur during an appearance on The Daily Show this week.

Charlamagne, whose real name is Lenard McKelvey, made the remark during his recurring “In My Opinion” segment while discussing comments from Sen. Chris Coons about President Donald Trump and speculation over a possible third term.

“Mr. Coons’ is actually my nickname for Clarence Thomas,” Charlamagne said.

He then argued that Trump’s comments about remaining in office should not be treated as harmless jokes.

“Nope. Jokes about abusing power don’t hit as hard when you’re actually abusing power, okay?

”It’s like breaking out a whoopee cushion after you already shit your pants in the middle of a meeting. Nobody’s in the mood to laugh, okay?” he said.

Charlamagne went on to say that even if Trump is joking, repeated rhetoric can take on a life of its own.

UCLA Medical School Accused Of Racial Discrimination In Defiance Of Supreme Court

We previously discussed a disturbing account of how medical students at the David Geffen School of Medicine at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) were subjected to a bizarre class where one of the university’s “activists-in-residence” showered them with anti-Semitic postings and racist rhetoric. Now, the Justice Department has found that the university engaged in systemic racial discrimination in the admission of medical students. Given the university’s history, it is hardly surprising, but it remains unclear how the university will respond to the findings.

The DOJ’s Civil Rights Division announced that the medical school violated Title VI of the 1964 Civil Rights Act by giving preferential treatment to black and Hispanic applicants.

The investigation followed the Supreme Court’s 2023 ruling in Students for Fair Admissions v. Harvard, which barred race-based admissions.

In the DOJ’s “Findings” letter, black and Hispanic admits in some years averaged MCAT scores in the 66th to 72nd percentile, while Asian and white students averaged scores in the mid-to-high 80th percentiles.

Assistant Attorney General Harmeet Dhillon indicated that the Justice Department found that UCLA medical school leadership discussed how to achieve “diversity goals” and other strategies after the Supreme Court ruling.

After the historic ruling in the Harvard and North Carolina cases barring the use of racial criteria in admissions, administrators and academics admitted what they had long denied: that race was having a major role in admissions.

In anticipation of the rulings, many schools, including the California system, eliminated standardized testing. Without objective scores, there is less ability to identify the use of non-scholastic criteria for admissions. By eliminating or devaluing standardized testing, admissions offices can use the more subjective essays to achieve the same race-based results.

I wrote about how administrators were already preparing to use essays as an indirect way to achieve the same identifications and preferences in admissions.

The essay “prompts” encourage students to effectively self-identify by discussing incidents where they faced discrimination.

The shift to the essays would allow the removal of high-scoring students while elevating those with lower scores. That prediction was quickly confirmed, as top candidates were rejected based on their essays, while schools used essays to flag their backgrounds.

Faculty and administrators at UCLA and other schools remain adamant in using race-based admissions. They simply justify discrimination as equity and diversity. 

This is the same school that required medical students to sit through a raving lecture from “a formerly unhoused and incarcerated poverty scholar who prefers to keep their face covered in public.”

In her two-hour lecture, Gray-Garcia dismissed modern medicine as “white science” and told the medical students to engage in a prayer to “mama Earth.” Students were expected to pray and affirm that “Mama Earth was never meant to be bought, sold, pimped or played.”
