We need a lot more Booker T. Washington and a lot less W.E.B. DuBois ...

These whitey-blaming progressives are the worst kind of racists. The cloak their racism in a mantle of righteousness, all the while keeping the black man on the plantation and depicting all whites as racist.

It’s not only racist; it’s outright evil.

Black Power A Done Deal

Scurrilous Commentary by Fred Reed

It is curious that blacks, the least educated thirteen percent of the population, the least productive, most criminal, and most dependent on governmental charity, should dominate national politics. Yet they do. Virtually everything revolves around what blacks want, demand, do, or can't do. Their power seems without limit.

Courses of instruction in the schools, academic rigor, codes of dress, rules regarding unceasing obscenity, all must be set to suit them, as must be examinations for promotion in fire departments, the military, and police forces. Blacks must be admitted to universities for which they are not remotely qualified, where departments of Black Studies must be established to please them. Corporate work forces, federal departments, and elite high-schools must be judged not on whether they perform their functions but on whether they have the right number of blacks.

“We must do more to address racial injustice” translation: We want more money from the Gov’t.

“We” must? Why does that always translate into “you” must?

Those are the same book aren’t they?

One’s paperback and the other is a bound book...

I just picked up the Kindle version for $0.99 cents.

Thought others might find that in the unable to pass up category.

The second one, the paperback, I believe, has additions that the hardback doesn’t.

when some counter the Black Lives Matter movement with the statement that "All Lives Matter" we erase the racial injustice that Black people experience and lose the opportunity to engage one of the most enduring problems that confronts us as a nation,

No you don't. You libtards are so obsessed with collectivism and that you are unable to function without divisiveness and group warfare.

Red the full review, first.
I might be wrong.

FYI: Tried to buy the second one and it informed me I’d already bought that title... sale didn’t go through.

I used your link to Amazon. Am I misunderstanding your intent?

That's interesting.
If Amazon didn't work, try Barnes and Nobles.

No, I just thought you might have found a different location with a better deal.

Why don’t you just grow up and quit acting like an idiot.

No problem. Thanks for bringing the book to our attention.

I admire Booker T Washington and Washington Carver very much.

In their day they found a way to excel. In our day, so many can't won't.

I grew up two miles from George Washington Carver's childhood farm in Missouri. I've walked it a number of times.
