[Austin Willard Wright]

So now an intelligent man who has often taken great risks to be ostracized by pc whites and black community is merely "a black Republican." If anyone is playing the race card here, it is not Sowell.

Sowell has already said he is not a Republican, so the entire statement about him being one was goofy. That is, if the poster was referring to him. It seemed like the poster was too timid about it to be clear.
