After stating, as Barack Obama did four years ago at the Democratic National Convention, that “there’s no Black America, there’s no White America,” it seems strange that he is now stating America “cannot afford to ignore” the issue of race.
But even with this new burst of courage suddenly thrust upon him, Obama remains disingenuous, claiming the vitriolic sermons of the Reverend Wright were not something he supported in their otherwise inspiring relationship.
The truth, no doubt, is that he applauded as loudly as the rest of the congregation during those incendiary sermons, because they reflected his own true feelings as accurately as those of other parishioners. In fact, they probably resonated more so with Barack because even with a White mother he was still subjected to race hatred, and from White family members, by his own admission.

Former vice presidential candidate Geraldine Ferraro seems to think Barack Obama’s trading in on his Black skin is the reason for Hillary’s frustrated campaign success. Sounds like the reverse-discrimination argument against Affirmative Action, that somehow Black success unfairly precludes Whites and therefore lowers “standards.” It’s a sad confirmation of the sense of entitlement perpetually gripping […]

We learned from the Boston Globe recently that so-called Harvard elites, among others, are advocating another governmental study of Black males, to determine exactly what the problem is with their apathy and overall lack of success.
Is it me, or hasn’t the Black community been studied to death already?
Since Blacks weild comparatively little political and economic […]

Is Barack Obama the real deal? He seems well on his way to an unstoppable change of address, even though so many still have misgivings and unanswered questions. Roger Cohen described him in the NY Times as “light on fierceness,” or, according to Ellen Goodman of the Boston Globe, “more feminine” than Hillary, while David […]
