I think it’s fair to say that at least a sizeable majority of black leaders out there should actually, you know, be black.

I think it's fair to say that at least a sizable majority of black-identity "leaders" are exactly parallel to white identity "leaders" - bigots no different from the Nazi party leaders. The problem isn't the existence of trans-racial black leaders, it's the existence of race-leaders at all. MLK had it right - judge others by the content of their character and not by the color of their skin. Identity politics merely extends racism, which would otherwise already have died a natural death.

We have Federally recognized (and enforced):

- National Caribbean-American Heritage Month

- Black History Month

- Hispanic and Latino (and Latina) Heritage Month

- Pacific Islander Month

- Women's History Month

- Native American Heritage Month

- Gay Lesbian Pride Month

- National Disability Employment Awareness Month

And a slew of others.

If you proposed a "Men's History Month" or a "European American Heritage Month" they would place you in front of the cultural firing squad.
