In my May 31, 2011 article titled “Our First Lady: Bitter Harridan,” I wrote that in her Princeton thesis Michelle Obama lamented: “I have found that at Princeton no matter how liberal and open-minded some of my professors and classmates try to be toward me, I sometimes feel like a visitor on campus – as if I really don’t belong.” She [specifically] complained that whites made her feel “black first and a student second.”
Therein is the true elephant in the room of which the majority of America appears oblivious. Blacks by their own insistence have reduced themselves to a segregative subset outside of the mainstream of America based on their self-limiting determination to be a “color”.
Ergo, the very thing Michelle Obama laments is the very thing that she and the majority of blacks want. The very thing they want most is the very thing they accuse people of using to treat them differently. MichelleObamaThe idea that blacks are different is so deeply ingrained in the psyche of America, that the pink elephant in the center of the room goes virtually unnoticed. And when one such as myself brings attention to this, blacks predictably respond with “Uncle Tom” and “sell-out” while most whites make excuses for said distinction being necessary.
Blacks are almost always referred to by the color of their skin first. The idea of pride based singularly on color of skin nurtures blacks the way babies are nurtured through the umbilical cord. No other population group (except for illegals) are referred to and recognized as a color juxtaposed to just being an American.
Which as I argue, that while this is what the majority of blacks strive for, it is the very thing that they secretly resent. Skin color, as a descriptive is a constant reminder to blacks that they are different and it is a reminder that is almost always tethered to a quantifiable negative or a dissociative cultural distinction. For example, hip-hop and gangster-rap can be romanticized and fictionalized as representative of black people and as outward lyrical expressions of black culture. But in reality it is nothing more than a violent, vulgar, misogynistic expression of contempt for propriety and acceptable modernity. It is an elevation of unfettered disrespect for self and community.
To make matters worse, few beside myself are asking the question pursuant to why that which embraces commonality receives such celebratory exaltation when associated with blacks.
There is also the glaring, and I believe, unconscious disrespect shown blacks, specifically professional blacks, by young people who are not black. Frequently blacks are greeted and/or addressed insultingly by those in the service industry with “hey man,” “what’s up man,” “hey boss/hoss” ad nauseum. To be sure the latter can be a regional salutation. But more frequently it is predicated upon the public image portrayed by television, music, and Hollywood. It is also not the way most of these very same service employee persons, acknowledge those individual who are not black.
White youth are not copying proper speech, proper dress, proper behavior, and other acceptable behaviors from blacks – they are copying Ebonics, inappropriate dress, boorish behavior, ad nauseum. Propriety isn’t glamorized by the media and/or on film; rather it is that which is anti-social and disrespectful on every level.
Blacks have worked at being different and outside the mainstream to such an extent that segregative speech and a segregative mindset are commonplace nearly whenever they are referenced.
It offends me to hear well meaning persons unwittingly make statements that are then used by race-mongers as validation of whites believing themselves superior to blacks. When in reality said people are only parroting what they have been inculcated by race-mongers and Marxist behavioral-culturists to view as proper. The neo-Leninist theology of alienation and subjugation – utilizing skin-color as an avatar, has resulted in inferiority and spiritual destruction.
As long as blacks continue to believe their self-worth is based on skin-color they will feel displaced and will consciously or unconsciously feel like outsiders.
It is doubtful that Michelle Obama has ever spoken more honest words, (apart from hello and goodbye), than when she lamented being made to “feel black first and a student second.” But she wasn’t intellectually honest enough to reason her feeling same. This is also commonplace for most blacks. They blame whites for feeling alienated when alienation is exactly what they strive for.
The next great step into modernity for America will come only when Americans cease to reference and recognize one another by skin color. Until then government will compartmentalize us, and race-pimps will amass fortunes prostituting race-based immiseration, acrimony, and despair.
I believe it was a senior thesis...so done as an undergraduate.
For Michelle and her fellow black people there are 2 cultures, black and white. For everyone outside her group there are two cultures, black and everyone else. Many members of the everyone else culture have dark skin but do not identify as black people. The only people who do not belong to the everyone culture are those for whom skin color is their primary means of identification.
In contrast to Condoleeza Rice; just a very powerful woman, and an outstanding example of what good parenting and an education can result in. A REAL LADY.
Also damn good looking, IMHO.
What’s your deal, Fay? Lookin’ for something?
I just read through about 1/2 of it and had to give up.
My estimation of Princeton just plummeted if this is what they accept as a thesis.
The sentences were so convoluted I actually laughed at times.
.
What a useless and unsupported piece of work. Affirmative Action at its worst.
The Worst Lady. What a utter affirmative-action racist loser.
She’s no lady. She’s a thug.
That’s black.
Thanks for the link; I’m bookmarking it.
I’ve wanted to read it...I’ll just make sure I don’t do so after eating.
After fifty-nine years of life on this planet I’ve come to the conclusion that 99.9% of blacks in America are dumber than dirt.
Yeah. Considering the fact ‘’she’’ is a guy.
The thing is, Hussein doesn’t realise *he’s* an Affirmative Action Hire.
Hold on.....
1/2 black ...
Closet mooslim ...
HE’S A TWOFER!!
....” This is also commonplace for most blacks. They blame whites for feeling alienated when alienation is exactly what they strive for”.......
I have never noted so many Black titled clubs, magazines , organizations etc. and they simply grow more and more. I’ve come to understand that it isn’t they want to be accepted into the white communities...they want right to have their own communities, etc. along side others....yet “Like” others.
They don’t get it that their culture is as distinct as any other culture. But not above them .
Anyone have the link to Hitchens’ essay on Moochelle?
I believe that's it.
And the thesis itself:

Whites have complained for a long time that People of color want to be known as African American instead of American,mos t of the blacks I bet don’t even know what part of Africa they are supposed to be from.
