Cynique Posted October 31, 2014 Report Share Posted October 31, 2014 That big-mouthed buffoon, Charles Barkely, who'd be workin on a garbage truck were he not an overgrown freak who could play basketball, needs to shut up. Black people already know what the problem is with their race, and we don't need self-apponted spokesmen like him and that candidate for dementia, Bill Cosby, lecturing to their fellow Blacks. These lucky millionaires with their shady personal lives do nothing but provide sound bytes for right-wing conservatives like those twits over at Faux news, who are the problem not the solution for Blacks like Dr. Ben Carson who they've brainwashed into thinking he's something other than a lawn jockey. I've watched one episode of Blackish and found it mildly funny. But I got the impression that if you see one episode you'll see them all because it's a one joke sit-com based on the ongoing premise that upscale blacks are conflicted when it comes to maintaining their roots. So what else is new? Time and time again, harry brown, you compare today's hypocritical preachers to MLK as if he was above reproach. The thing that made Dr. King so outstanding was not that he was perfect but that as a flawed womanizer who drank Scotch and smoked Salem cigarettes, he was not egocentric or motivated by greed. He was a servant to his people and one of his goals was to prick the consciences of racist white people, something he was not totally successful at. He was not a saint but is now a martyr, revered not for his virtue but for being courageous and brilliant. Yes, actress Cicely Tyson has led an interesting life that has run the gamut from award-winning to ass-whippin at the hands of that cruel genius, Miles Davis. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delano Posted November 1, 2014 Report Share Posted November 1, 2014 All people are brainwashed. You still have Aryan ideal of blonde hair blues being the gold standard of beauty. He was also bisexual. When I said this to a white woman she said why was I dragging his name through the mud. I felt it added to him because it showed he was human and a humanitarian. There's a scene in Malcolm X. Where the feds are listening to a wiretap of Malcolm X, they say he's a saint compared to King. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
