beautiful-christmas-candles-28O Holy Night“ (“Cantique de Noël“) is a well-known Christmas carol composed by Adolphe Adam in 1847 to the French poem “Minuit, chrétiens” (Midnight, Christians) by Placide Cappeau (1808–1877). Cappeau, a wine merchant and poet, had been asked by a parish priest to write a Christmas poem.[1] Unitarian minister John Sullivan Dwight,[2] editor of Dwight’s Journal of Music, created a singing edition based on Cappeau’s French text in 1855. In both the French original and in the two familiar English versions of the carol, the text reflects on the birth of Jesus and of mankind’s redemption.

      Yeah, they’ll end up with their heads cut off so the crown prince can show he is innocent.

      These are our “allies”.

    The thing with this whole “circle game” bullshit, is that every one of those guys KNEW it would be seen as a White Power symbol & didn’t care. They aren’t stupid. Just racist. They lack honor.

    And now the academy is saying that’s cool. https://twitter.com/PamKeithFL/status/1208400570589073410?s=20
