Comments on: NYTimes Suggests Rev Wright (and blacks generally) SHUT UP! http://cantholdmytongue.com/2008/04/28/nytimes-suggests-rev-wright-and-blacks-generally-shut-up/ Another Wordpress black weblog Fri, 13 Nov 2009 16:52:07 +0000 http://wordpress.com/ hourly 1 By: marcg http://cantholdmytongue.com/2008/04/28/nytimes-suggests-rev-wright-and-blacks-generally-shut-up/#comment-752 marcg Mon, 05 May 2008 03:37:24 +0000 http://chmt.wordpress.com/?p=193#comment-752 Obama didn't rise. He was promoted by the same oppressive forces Black people and people of color globally have been fighting for centuries. The Black polity has its problems. Undeniable. But juxtaposing those problems with a corporate tool in the name of Barack Obama is not a solution or even the right direction in which to move towards a solution. Rev. Wright isn't someone I agree with on many points but it's not the truths he speaks about this country like the fact that the US has a foreign policy and economic system that almost guarantees it will be hated around the world. I disagree with him in his liberal solutions to these problems. Wright seems fervent about dismantling racism but seems confused about what to do about capitalism. I don't hear him saying we need to ditch it. But I can't say what his position is exactly. But Obama? Puh-leeze. Obama didn’t rise.

He loves the Clintons since they fit the image blacks see themselves as. Collar greens, corn bread and fried chicken and everytime they see another brother rise they have to bring him down. Blacks need racism to justify their economic and social failures, failures they bring to themselves. Like 2pac Shakur said, its my own kind doing all the killing here. It also is the hatred and envy that dominates black life that Wright represents. Blacks leaders always hated Obama because he rose in this nation while they lag behind preying on themselves. The hell with that Uncle Tom acting like he is some militant. He ain’t nothing but a player hater. Everywhere in this world their is oppression but many blacks can’t go on because they can’t fight the demons in them. The demon that make them rob each other, hate each other and abandon their own kids. The demons that makes them envy those among them who shine.
