There Are Black Folks, And There Are Folks Who Are Black

[PoliticalChic]

1. In John Connolly's novel "The Reapers," the protagonist, a black man, meditates on the sort of music he enjoys, Country and Western, and that most blacks can't seem to favor this genre.\


"...Country and Western, .... the black experience in country music. Louis found it hard to understand why so many others of his race failed to connect with this music: it spoke of rural poverty, of love, of despair, of faithfulness and infidelity, and these were experiences known to all men, black as well as white.

Just as poor black people had more in common with poor whites than with wealthy blacks, so too this music offered a means of expression to those who had endured all of the trauma and sadness with which it dealt, regardless of color. Nevertheless, he had resigned himself to being in a minority as far as this belief was concerned,...."




".... poor black people had more in common with poor whites than with wealthy blacks,..."

Interesting perception?



2. Now....those blacks who have been infected by the disease called Liberalism....well, then skin color is the be-all and end-all.
You can see that attitude in several members of this very board.




3. How does it show up in Liberal-indoctrinated blacks?

Well....here's a quote.....see if you know who said this:


[He carried ]"…an old clipping of a quote from Harlem preacher Reverend Samuel D. Proctor. .... put the clipping in his wallet in 1971, when he was studying history at Columbia University, and kept it in wallet after wallet over the ensuing decades.
What were Proctor’s words that [he] found so compelling?

“Blackness is another issue entirely apart from class in America. No matter how affluent, educated and mobile [a black person] becomes, his race defines him more particularly than anything else.”



…When asked to explain the passage, [he] replied, “It really says that… I am not the tall (accomplished and successful professional), I am not the thin (accomplished and successful professional). I am the black (accomplished and successful professional).

And he was saying that no matter how successful you are, there’s a common cause that bonds the black (lawyer, doctor, etc.) with the black criminal or the black doctor/lawyer/whatever with the black homeless person.”…It may seem shocking to hear these racialist views ascribed to America’s top (accomplished and successful professional). But to people who have worked (with him,) these attitudes are perfectly familiar."

"...a common cause that bonds the black (lawyer, doctor, etc.) with the black criminal..."



4. Skin color....all that matters.
For this über-Liberal, lawyer, doctor, whatever....it is exactly the same as being a mugger or a drug dealer.

Sick, huh?

So.....who is the black successful professional who cannot see any further than race?

Take a guess.
I'll tell you in moment.....

Everyone is different and yet everyone is the same.

Who is it????

Who could have reached the very highest levels in our society, ....yet purveys the most insane of Liberals doctrines.....

This: all blacks are the same.
Who could it be?

There have been many country/western singers who have made some good music, but I don't know anyone who has made so many good ones in a row as this man:

..... poor black people had more in common with poor whites than with wealthy blacks ...

Good point.

 

[PoliticalChic]

Poor PC has fallen prey to PC. We've all heard this pitch before, poor thing had to clean it up and omit the "n" word.

Could you specify where the "n" word would have fit.....or, where you imagine that I had to 'omit' it?


Or....is your post the usual low-life boilerplate attempt to smear, marginalize and silence any voices that don't fall in with you lock-step Liberals?



It might be my fault....I didn't provide any trigger-warnings to Liberals, stating the the OP required a higher level of comprehension than that which you are capable of.


Time for you to go home and set up the “Slip and Slide” so it ends in the knife drawer.

This was from the same novel...

"Dwight Quick, Vicki Vann, Carl Ray, and Cowboy Troy Coleman from the moderns, DeFord Bailey and Stoney Edwards from the earlier period, along with a little Charlie Pride,..."

Black people don't listen to country music, don't pay much attention to NASCAR.

Where is the problem?

I can explain it to you in one quote, from the great black heavyweight fighter Jack Johnson:

"I'm black, and they won't ever let me forget it.

I'm black, and I won't ever let them forget it."

Get it?

 

[ClosedCaption]

Poor people have more in common with other poor people than they do rich people? Holy smokes...what a vapid observation disguised as an orginal thought.

But what in the world does that have to do with liking Country Music? Fuuuuuuck

 

[GLASNOST]

Black people don't listen to country music, don't pay much attention to NASCAR.

Willy T. Ribbs, Bill Lester, Wendell Scott, Charley Pride, and Ray Charles disagree with you.

This is a classic USMB 'moment',

when one of USMB's worst racists comes on to school us all on 'skin color'.

Willy T. Ribbs, Bill Lester, Wendell Scott, Charley Pride, and Ray Charles disagree with you.

You mean you don't know how small that is in comparison to what black people actually listen to?

Those you posted would be called FEW.

I have no idea what point it is that you're trying to make .. but coming from someone as obsessed with race as you are, this all seems incredibly silly.

Unknown to you, 'blackness' is also shared among many white people.

Oooo.....ya' mean the way the most popular Democrat, Bill 'the rapist' Clinton did?
So....the Confederate Flag is a sure sign of racism?

Hmmmm....you may have a point:

1. a. Governor Clinton was among three state officials the NAACP sued in 1989 under the federal Voting Rights Act of 1965. “Plaintiffs offered plenty of proof of monolithic voting along racial lines, intimidation of black voters and candidates and other official acts that made voting harder for blacks,” the Arkansas Gazette reported December 6, 1989.
   
   
   
   
   b. Bill Clinton had a Confederate flag-like issue, every year he was governor: 1979-1992 Arkansas Code Annotated, Section 1-5-107, provides as follows:
   
   (a) The Saturday immediately preceding Easter Sunday of each year is designated as ‘Confederate Flag Day’ in this state.
   
   (b) No person, firm, or corporation shall display an Confederate flag or replica thereof in connection with any advertisement of any commercial enterprise, or in any manner for any purpose except to honor the Confederate States of America. [Emphasis added.]
   
   (c) Any person, firm, or corporation violating the provisions of this section shall be guilty of a misdemeanor and upon conviction shall be fined not less than one hundred dollars ($100) nor more than one thousand dollars ($1,000).
   
   Bill Clinton took no steps during his twelve years as governor to repeal this law.

Hillary Clinton's Confederacy Hypocrisy


[Let's Stop Pretending the Confederate Flag Isn't a Symbol of RacismJust to refresh everyone's memories, we're talking about the official national flag that was used to represent the Confederate States of America during the Civil War. You know, that awkward time period when the South was vehemently fighting to keep slavery around as a means of economic prosperity for white plantation owners.

I've heard arguments time and again about how the Confederate flag is no longer representative of slavery, and how it's now indicative of "Southern pride and heritage." But I'm really over the whole "respect your heritage" mantra, especially when your heritage ishate.
