FULL TITLE: Marc Lamont Hill: Trump’s Diversity Coalition ‘A Bunch of Mediocre Negroes’ ‘Dragged In’ ‘As a Photo-Op’

On Monday’s “CNN Tonight,” Morehouse College Professor and CNN Commentator Marc Lamont Hill stated that President-Elect Donald Trump’s diversity coalition was “a bunch of mediocre negroes being dragged in front of TV as a photo-op for Donald Trump’s exploitative campaign against black people.”

Hill said, “I love Steve Harvey and I have respect for Steve Harvey and I think his intentions were accurate — or appropriate rather, but my disagreement is the way in which he’s being used by folk like Donald Trump. Again, his intention is just to have a seat at the table. But when you’re at the table, you should have experts at the table. You should have people who can challenge the president at the table. … Because all — because they keep bringing up comedians and actors and athletes to represent black interests is demeaning, it’s disrespectful, and it’s condescending. Bring some people up there with some expertise Donald Trump, don’t just bring up people to entertain.”

He added, “Unless Steve Harvey turns into a policy analyst in the behind the scenes meetings, it doesn’t matter what I was — I’m saying, my concern is who — the people he’s trumpeting up and putting in front of the cameras.”

After Trump’s diversity coalition was raised, Hill stated, “it was a bunch of mediocre negroes being dragged in front of TV as a photo-op for Donald Trump’s exploitative campaign against black people.”

“If the democrats are unable to hold together their solid Black vote, they know as a party they will be in permanent minority status.”

Not good enough. They must be driven out of public life entirely.

They must be reduced to scrawling their screeds on scrap paper in public libraries because they can’t afford to buy paper or heat their houses.

Idiots like Hill&Gang are setting race relations back a hundred years with their irresponsible utterances and rants.

Them plantations must really be a great place to live, so many of the black ‘leaders’ want to keep all the blacks there.

You see a few articulate blacks in public....a handful

Ben

Charles

Thomas S

But not many

Most are just not bright communicators or it’s the dialect

It’s more slogans and insults and yelling

Bell Curve

I mean look at Jay Zee and Puffy and Snoop or Lil Wayne

All rich as hell but dumb as rocks talking

Cornel West is a very very poor communicator and he’s their Moses

Dre seems bright though or at least thoughtful

Denzel speaks good but he’s trained at it

Spike Lee not so good

Niger Innis speaks well

Condi and Harris too

It’s a small club but the right leaning blacks def seem brighter

I listen to Lamont Hill and I think how’d you get a phd bub.... and at Penn for Gods sakes

I lived with a phd candidate girl during all that....it ain’t fer dummies

David A. Clarke, Jr. ‏@SheriffClarke 3h 3 hours ago I am tired of this jigaboo telling black people who they should be, what they should do. He's a lackey for Democrats

Mr. Hill doesn’t think much of black “comedians and actors and athletes”, huh.
