Sharpton or his coterie of race-baiting vultures would invent to keep the money rolling in.

Booker T. Washington had Sharpton Dullton et al pegged long ago:

There is a class of colored people who make a business of keeping the
troubles, the wrongs, and the hardships of the Negro race before the
public. Having learned that they are able to make a living out of their
troubles, they have grown into the settled habit of advertising their
wrongs-partly because they want sympathy and partly because it pays.
Some of these people do not want the Negro to lose his grievances,
because they do not want to lose their jobs.

~ Booker T. Washington (1856-1915.) ~
Educator, Author, Civil Rights Leader

Thank you for posting that-every bit as true now as it was then-except now, it applies to any member of any ethnic group that plays the victim card to make money. That quote should be used by every conservative minority candidaqte in every congressional contest.

One of my favorite quotes. Just shows how long this crap has been going on.
