Will be repeated at 11:00 pmest - believes most blacks are closer to Shelby Steele and Clarence Thomas in their thinking privately, but have to subscribe to victimhood mythology publicly to be "authentic" - fascinating discussion of his family toward the end - thinks he's aware of some of the self-sabotaging tendenies in the black community because he was introduced to them early by his mother, who "had little use for white people" and was a "victimologist". Interesting hour......

John is a major league talent. Young as he is, I look forward to him moving beyond the race stuff and weighing in on other issues.
