Plus ca change... I read “Mau-Mauing the Flak Catchers” by Tom Wolfe back in the 70’s and little has changed since then in the MSM’s moronic pursuit of pandering to race hustlers. Brooks is also an ass.
This Coates guy sounds like all the hilarious characters played by Damon Wayans in that great tv series “In Living Color.”
Mon Francais n’est pas bon, mais Monsieur Coates vous êtes plein de merde.
Brooks is a loathsome, guilt-ridden creature of the left. In other words, he possesses the traits necessary to be the NYT’s token “conservative.”
This reminds me of the movie Boys in the Hood where one old man who lived in that neighborhood for decades noted that “ its not the white police officers that are lowering property values its these fools, shooting and dealing crack”, not PC but it did expose they are their own worst enemy.
Brooks is a pathetic self-loathing racist.
Coates may call himself black, but there’s lots of cream in that coffee!
