This point was the one thing I agree with as well.
OTOH it isn't too difficult to figure out the appeal--"It isn't your fault you're poor with few prospects for success in life. Someone did it to you (in this case, the white devil) and they owe you BIG time."
It's the same appeal the Rats in general, the Black Caucus in particular, Jesse Jackson and most black "leaders" offer.
The closest Calypso Louie came to actually trying to improve his followers' status as opposed to excusing it, perpetuating it and exploiting it was the Million Man March where I guess the idea was to commit to responsibility... Or was that the Promise Keepers?
I watched Louie's rambling, schizoid speech to the MMM and admit it's hard to remember much beyond his whacked out numerology gibberish.
