It’s not jawara who needs to be looking at himself.
It is very easy to understand why he refers to his race in the third person: He is not act black enough to be accepted.
Clarence Thomas has the same problem. So does Walter Williams. So does Condi Rice.
It must suck to be young and have your own race turn on you.
I have to wonder if jawara was lamenting over being the only black guy in a white community, would the FI’s and the GCF’s be as vociferous.
Probably not - especially if jawara were a liberal.
Black conservatives are the devil to the rest of the black community. How someone can not know this is beyond me.
Your post would make more sense if jawara made a little more sense. He’s whining about his leisure activities and the OJ verdict. And the only example he gave of someone calling him a sell out was a pot-smoking white liberal.
To me, it doesn’t sound like it’s his race turning on him. It sounds like the white people in his life don’t think he’s black enough. And that’s an entirely different problem to deal with.[/quote]
I used the leisure activies as just a small example of what I’m talking about. Dont you think that getting dissed for what you do in your spare time is kinda crazy? Black people don’t do________. Do I think my race has turned on me? Mostly yes. Why? Because I refuse to see myself as a victim. I don’t need Obama to tax a rich white guy so that I can have medical care, education or some other social program to get ahead in life. BUT since I don’t swallow the “I’m a victim of the white man” Kool-Aid I get shit from white libs and probably 75% of the black community. I also found this : Black conservatism - Wikipedia
This better explains my postion.
