Ok Ma.....I think you are a conservative and proud of being "black". I think that's fine too. I like Halle and Denzel and Sydney but their politics are a bit left for me. I'm more of a Morgan Freeman fan....understated dignity.

I think some white folks are sort of tired of the black "trumpet" always being tooted....that doesn't make those folks racist...just weary of being part of the oppressor class. OTOH, I understand folks who consider themselves black regardless of the purity of their black gene pool feeling a need to celebrate. I don't think either side is actually wrong but either side can be a bit shrill.

On a lighter note, the heavy set black woman who was Scarlett O'Hara's maid in GWTW...she was mentioned last night. Has anyone ever heard the rumour that she was a lesbian and that her and Tallulah Bankhead (a blueblood Bama white sybarite gal) had a lesbian affair in the late 30s. I'm not joking. NOW...that was groundbreaking from a variety of PC perspectives...LOL.

Regards MA!

I believe I've heard the rumor once or twice. I liked Tallulah- she had a lot of spunk.
