70 recs for this ignorant racist-ass bullshit.
I will not directly call out those that recced it.
Elon James White actually summed this up quite well in a tweet.
Yes, there is a conversation that can be had about John Lewis, Jim Clyburn, President Barack Obama, and many other black leaders on this subject.
In fact, these conversations happen quite often both online and offline.
I can sit down with Yvette Carnell face-to-face and have that conversation.
I am not willing to have that conversation here at Daily Kos because far too many of the nice white progressives seem not to have the home training or what LGBT journalist Karen Ocamb called cultural competence (too bad that the comment section there no longer exists; I distinctly remember that a number of examples of the cultural incompetence of white LGBT’s were talked about) to discuss these issues.
I do know this…
I can make these judgments as far as who a “house negro” and who a “field negro” is in any given situation. No American white person can ever go there.
Personally, I don’t even necessarily like the one-dimensional picture that Minister Malcolm makes about the “house negro.”
After all, the “house negro” will be the very one that will poison your food.
