You won't learn this in the schools, either.

This man speaks my mind. The welfare culture doesn't want to hear this, because they'd rather live on the dole than earn their keep.

And I don't think color is all that involved. It's visible, to be sure; but those that advocate the unilateral transfer of wealth from those that earn it to those that don't aren't all black. Rather, they are liberals - the "leaders" pursuing their socialist agenda, and those followers who - whether emotionally blind or through sheer stupidity - don't recognize the damage they're doing.

Watching a AMC special on Hatie McDaniels. The NAACP really tried to ruin her when she tried to play more white type roles and when she fought them the liberals in Hollywood kept her from getting work. Typical liberal double speak. The real reason why liberals hate vouchers is that black kids will then be able to go to school with the liberals kids. Can't have that now can we?

It is interesting to note that whenever Intellectuals that are Black have the courage to publically discuss their Conservative thoughts, that it is the Black public figures who do their best to cast dispersions on those Conservative thinkers.

Dr. Sowell and Dr. Williams should be commended by other Black Intellectuals for their courage.

What is so terrible about diversity of thought among Blacks?

Must all Blacks think and speak the same as "The Man in the Big House" on the NAACP Plantation? And here I've been led to believe that slavery was abolished with our Civil War!

Guess it takes a little longer to end thought-slavery.

another well kept secret.... another reason to end the government education monopoly

But you know the three biggest reforms we need: EDUCATION, IMMIGRATION,and TAXATION will never happen because the left controls the "COMMANDING HEIGHTS" of the culture: Media and Academia...

we better wake before Pat Buchanan is proven accurate

THE POVERTY PIMPS' POEM

Let us celebrate the poor,
Let us hawk them door to door.
There's a market for their pain,
Votes and glory and money to gain.
Let us celebrate the poor.
Their ills, their sins, their faulty diction
Flavor our songs and spice our fiction.
Their hopes and struggles and agonies
Get us grants and consulting fees.
Celebrate thugs and clowns,
Give their ignorance all renown.
Celebrate what holds them down,
In our academic gowns.
Let us celebrate the poor.

Thomas Sowell

Good post. -- This subject would make a great show for Alan Keyes.

It isn't hard to recall that the Southern Democrats were the Party of slavery. It was LBJ who saw that indentured constituency, stretching into the future as far as the eye could see.

It's interesting that the "racist" conservatives have minority intellectuals far beyond their population percentage. Thomas Sowell may be the sharpest mind in the nation. We, conservatives, however, have a major disadvantage. We have to compete on the basis of ideas, not the "booty" from taxpayers largesse.

[Ohioan]

The verdict on LBJ's Great Society was in generations before he launched it. Political subsidization of failure has always meant more failure, never success. The real tragedy of Negro America--and the real beef that they have with White politicians--is that under the wise leadership of men like Booker T. Washington and George Washington Carver, at the beginning of the Twentieth Century, they were beginning to pull themselves up by their bootstraps.

Then came the White Leftists, who founded the NAACP, and who began in time to promote the subsidies for failure, and the family destroying ADC, in the 1930s, followed by the "Civil Rights" movement and legislation from the 1940s. It was this steady diet of corrupting influence, that broke the back of the forward progress. While many individuals have succeeded, over half of the race today are far worse off, from the standpoint of social infrastructure essential to real progress, than they were a century ago.

It is both sad and outrageous. But when you mention Thomas Sowell and Walter Williams, you are discussing men who have contributed far more to American Caucasions--who respect them tremendously--than to American Negroes; not because they wanted to slight their own race, not in the least. But because most of their race was being regimented into moronic self-destruction by a systematic, and thorough, Leftwing brainwashing.

Year old article. Already posted here.

Mr. Elders' article is an antidote for the venom spilled today in C-Span by the black poverty pimp intellectuals who became millionaires upon the shoulders of the black underclass.
