“There is a class of colored people who make a business of keeping the troubles, the wrongs, and the hardships of the Negro race before the public. Having learned that they are able to make a living out of their troubles, they have grown into the settled habit of advertising their wrongs-partly because they want sympathy and partly because it pays. Some of these people do not want the Negro to lose his grievances, because they do not want to lose their jobs. ~ Booker T. Washington (1856-1915.) ~ Educator, Author, Civil Rights Leader
One of America's oldest and most lucrative industries.
I saw a thread on FR about the Victims and Civil Rights industries investigating issuing "racism credits" patterned after pollution credits. Wealthy white liberals disappointed that "global warming" has fizzled are rushing to get in early.
Obviously Booker T was an Uncle Tom before his time. (I liked Green Onions. Booker T and the MG’s :>})
