The most powerful spokesperson for the conservative cause that I ever saw was this young black man debating a bearded white liberal in Union Square in San Franncisco in August,1968.He absolutely demolished the white liberal and watching him tear him up was like observing a skilled boxer methodically breaking down his opponent.
This was at the height of the Black Power movement and I had NEVER met a black conservative till then.I still don't know this young man's name or what his occupation was but the whole experience was riveting and challenged many of my assumptions about"black thougtht"
I am in my 30's for a little while longer and did not have the privelege of seeing this. Was it aired on televison or were you actually there?
