Title: Izzy Kapp <from a great email>
Post by: zeitgeist on November 05, 2012, 09:49:28 AM

This one just hit the inbox and I had to share.

Quote

One of the best lines heard lately was from Izzy Kapp, a now retired
shop foreman from the old Republic Steel Plant in Cleveland.
  
At 17, Izzy immigrated to the USA from  England after his family
escaped from Poland when he was 12. A more proud American
can not be imagined. He often said, "I am overwhelmed by the
opportunities my county offers me!"
  
All five of his children graduated from college. One got an MS,
another got a JD, and the third an MD degree. It took Izzy 13 years
of night school to get a college degree.

When a young Black kid was being laid off at the end of his 90 day
evaluation period, he confronted Izzy in the huge Republic Steel
Plant break room at lunch and tried to intimidate him with all sorts
of NAACP / ACLU / etc., threats.

"I want this on-the-record in front of everybody," the young man said.
"You' firin' me 'cause I'm Black!"

Without even looking up from his sandwich the foreman said, "No.
We hired you because you're Black.
  
We're firing you because you're useless."




A great slogan for the 2012 election:

They Voted You In Because
You're Black.  
We're Voting You Out Because
You're Useless.
