Very well said. It is so obvious that liberal African-Americans ignore Dr. Thomas Sowell it’s pathetic. They know better than to attack or even address him because he’ll tear them apart in debate quite easily on any subject.
While they have achieved some notoriety among conservatives and SOME well educated blacks (who consider them traitors) for the quality of their work and outstanding accomplishments, it is pitifully meager among the black population who largely ignores them as you rightly pointed out, Wuli. They were still pretty young, when I first discovered them. Now, they have lived a life time.
I was wondering just a few days ago, how they must feel that a lifetime's worth of excellent work has been so ignored by the African American population, and how they found the courage, stamina and fortitude to keep going. It is impossible to put into words the tremendous admiration I feel for them. They are heroes in every sense of the word.
No, Wuli, I don't expect Gwen will include Michael Steele, and other black politicians like him in her book. But perhaps there is a black conservative of current or future notoriety who will.
