....As he spoke about race, Wright’s rhetoric intensified.
“I am in the text. Pilate was European…Jesus was not European. They live in a world shaped by European standards of beauty, shaped by Moynihan studies, shaped by bell curves — they live in a different world from your world all together,” he told the audience. “They are ignorant and arrogant and these are graduates of Harvard and Yale setting policies over you based on the stupidity of David Hume…Voltaire, Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel, Thomas Jefferson — a pedophile — Theodore Roosevelt and a racist Supreme Court.”
But he wasn’t done there.
“The ignorance and arrogance of white supremacy have the movers and shapers of world policy living in a different world from people of color all together,” Wright raged on. “And the sooner you realize that the better off you’re gonna be.”

Rev. Wright Unleashed: ‘White Supremacy’ Drives ‘World Policy,’ Allah & Yahweh Are the ‘Same’…and Clarence Thomas Is Worshipping ‘Some Other God’
He’s just adding more fuel to the fire!
I thought Rev. Wrong retired to his 10 million dollar compound his congreation bought for him so if so shut up already rev.
Reverend Wright: Covetousness is a sin. It’s one of the Ten Big Ones.
I think it was said by De Toqueville that blacks would never forget they were slaves to whites and that resentment would last indefinately.
I bet ol huff n’ puff Beck denounced that Derbshire guy, but then he runs this stuff constantly. So a person reads this stuff and what is he supposed to think?
Talk about an inferiority complex.
These people have a raging case of it, don’t they?
They remind me of atheists who are far more obsessed with the subject of God than the average church-goer is. Far, far more. They have a raging case of God-envy.
So it is with most of what passes for “leadership” in the black community in America. They just can’t stop talking, thinking, obsessing about Whitey. In a way, Whitey is their god. Not because Whitey wants to be, but because the obsessive-compulsive envy of the “leadership” makes it so.
If these black “leaders” weren’t so dangerous to everyone in America (most especially their own people) it would be actually amusing to watch their obvious psychological meltdowns.
I just got his book...I’ll let you know if I see it! (looking forward to someone who says something good about the USA, even if it is a century or two old!
Seems to describe a certain follower of yours rather aptly, Mr. Wright.
Since he is a black liberation theologist, how does he get away with disavowing Hegel?
Actually, we don't know. He was a Roman Citizen, but the empire extended through Europe, North Africa, and parts of Asia. There are many legends but outside the Gospels and history by Tacitus nothing is really known and neither give personal details. There are a few archeological references to him but all of those have been found in Judea where he ruled.
I wonder why that was?
You know what I think when I hear Rev. Wright?
WHO CARES.
I don’t care anymore. They cry racism so much that it does NOTHING for me.
I cannot tell you how relieved I was to hear the "Reverend" say that.
I saw a play recently that conceptualized Pilate as a 1980s-style black African dictator. It was an interesting choice, and according to the director the playwright made that choice to communicate the brutal military nature of the Romans.
Rev Wright, I’d rather live in a world shaped by “white supremacy”, to use your own words, than one for which Detroit, Haiti, any African nation you can name, now including South Africa, are the models. Where do you live, Rev Wright?
Please let me know. I have John Stewart Mill’s translation of Democracy in America and unfortunately it does not have an index. Mil’s version, by the way, is in two volumes.
I wonder if the white Europeans ever forgot about being slaves to the black Moors when they ruled a significant portion of Europe?
The white man’s greed keeps a world in need.
That whitey Hegel, that German bigot, what with his thesis this and antithesis that, his world spirit of history, was just another cracker trying to keep black folk down.
