You guys need to make up your mind...

Jesse said this 20 years ago and now you guys are holding him up on your shoulders?

If one is to discuss certain problems, one must first learn the difference between regular Black people and the underclass. Alot of people speak as if the two are one in the same. They are not.

They do whatever is convenient and suits their purposes at the time. They do the same with all blacks...if the black person agrees with them, s/he is praised; if s/he holds to a different opinion, and dares to voice it, they are blasted and called uncle toms. Of course, if it's a white person disagreeing, then he/she is racist.

I figured that is what was being said. I have a question. Do you have any quotes of any Black people referring to Jesse Jackson as an Uncle Tom? Do you have any proof of even the majority of Blacks referring to some Blacks as "Uncle Toms"? Show me some statistics, not just anecdotes.

remember, white conservative males never bring up race, its always liberal whites. yet its a conservative white male op dragging up a link from 20 years ago, which is exactly what i thought the op only said liberals do.

this is the same link many conservative white males troll with when trying to denigrate blacks.

That's just so wrong on many levels that you had to deal with that kind of prejudice.
