That may be but it's still wrong. And I will continue to call out those who engage in such practices, be they black, white, brown, yellow, or red. There is no justifiable reasoning for it. It's simply inexcusable.
What frustrates me is nationally recognized black leaders ignore or poo poo the problem--perhaps because (like Jesse Jackson and his mistress) they participate in it.
Kudos to you for using the operative word: recognized. But who recognizes them as "leaders?" The white Left. That's where their alleged "legitimacy" comes from. We on the Right should not refer to these clowns as leaders. They're not.
