Difference between Bambi and Condi:
Condi’s great grandmothers or grandmothers actually knew what slavery was. Bambi’s great grandmother on the other hand was killing goats for fun. His other one was too busy telling other black people to work harder on the fields.
Condi’s actually dealt with racism growing up. No, not the “He called me ‘N!gg#r’, daddy (Although you don’t ever hear that anymore, for some odd reason.. hmmm), get him!” racism that all of us blacks face, but where her father had to avoid getting lynched every day for most of his life. Barry’s experience with racism wasn’t even remotely as dangerous.
Condi is a true example of how Blacks in America have succeeded despite the ugliest part of our nation’s history. Barry on the other hand is just an African kid who took advantage of the special privileges we gave blacks. We truly overcame our racism in 2005, not 2008.
This reminds me of a saying I told my cousin but he never could get it. “Sparrows will always eat the food from the blue jay feeder”. It means when you give out something for free, don’t be surprised if there are people who try to take advantage of a free situation as much as possible using the most remote of similarities to the original situation or person to get it. Barry’s a sparrow. Condi’s a blue jay.
Condi is a class act.
