Closet Black Conservatives

So, are they closet blacks, closet black conservatives, or just closet conservatives?

many won’t have the courage to see this film, which opens in select theaters July 27.

Problem: The only people who will view this film are the people who don’t “need” to see it.

Solution: How do we get thinking Black people to go see the film?

I am friends with several (one of them is my boss!) The most frustrating thing they face is the built-in prejudices of many of their own, even in their families, let alone the workplace (shhhhh). But it is only a matter of time before their voices are heard.

Looking forward to seeing this film, in fact, I’m going to send the link. ;-)

LET ME SAY AT THE OUTSET THAT WHITE WELFARE BUMS ARE EVERY BIT AS MUCH A PROBLEM AS BLACKS; BUT THIS THREAD IS ABOUT CONSERVATIVE BLACKS; HENCE, I SPEAK ONLY ABOUT THEM.

Pardon my pessimism, but I think any rebellion by blacks toward their Big Government “Masters” is going to be negligible. My arguement is to be found within THESE 3 EXCERPTS from one paragraph of the Declaration of Independence:

EXCERPT No. 1: “Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes....”

And as someone (John Stossell, maybe?) recently showed in a video; the run-of-the-mill-black will put up with anything as long as he keeps getting his free $h!t.

EXCERPT No. 2: “...and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed.”

As I see it, the alternative to continuing on with things as they are is for blacks to seek jobs, find jobs and start setting the alarm clock and SHOWING UP and PERFORMING those jobs.....many of them with NO JOB EXPERIENCE in their family or peer group for several generations. Ain’t gonna’ happen!

EXCERPT No. 3 “But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.”

To MY mind, the only chance of any of this taking hold is if leaders such as Rev. C. L. Bryant, Herman Cain, et al, can begin to inspire YOUNG BLACKS to think for themselves, to recognize the race hustlers for who and what they are, and to leave the Big Government Plantation.

I run into sharp, capable, skilled blacks all the time. I am truly impressed with their abilities, with their speaking English fluently and beautifully and without a bunch of ebonics crap messing it up; and it’s a pleasure to engage in transactions with them. But when they enter the voting booth, do they still pull the lever for Massa in Washington, DC? The current numbers show that they still do. FWIW

"What are you being prevented from doing because of your skin color?"

I've been asking that same question for years.

There's one thing I would like these conservative Black preachers to do: simply reveal Martin Luther King Jr.'s unorthodox liberal theology to grass roots Blacks and let them decide if they are "African Americans" or nineteenth century European rationalist intellectuals. Why does no one ever do this? King's liberal, unorthodox beliefs are no secret. Why does everyone pretend he was Billy Sunday with a side issue?

It's unbelievable. Black and white chrstians live together down here in the rural South yet the whites are "fundies" and the Blacks are what . . . Marxist-Leninist intellectuals? Secular humanists? Materialists? What are they? Why does the rural South produce so many left wing Black preachers?

It's about time someone addressed this issue. All else is window dressing.
