Rev. Wright in 2007:
"The vision statement of Trinity United Church of Christ is based upon the systematized liberation theology that started in 1969 with the publication of Dr. James Cone’s book, Black Power and Black Theology."
https://web.archive.org/web/20080905...ing_points.htm

Dr. James H. Cone on Black Liberation Theology:

"all white men are responsible for white oppression"
Black theology and black power - James H. Cone - Google Books+

"The goal of black theology is the destruction of everything white, so that blacks can be liberated from alien gods."
A Black Theology of Liberation - James H. Cone - Google Books

"The free per*son in America is the one who does not tolerate whiteness but fights against it, knowing that it is the source of human misery."
A Black Theology of Liberation - James H. Cone - Google Books

"Most whites, some despite involvement in protests, do believe in "freedom in democracy," and they fight to make the ideals of the Constitution an empirical reality for all. It seems that they believe that, if we just work hard enough at it, this country can be what it ought to be. But it never dawns on these do-gooders that what is wrong with America is not its failure to make the Constitution a reality for all, but rather its belief that persons can affirm whiteness and humanity at the same time."
A Black Theology of Liberation - James H. Cone - Google Books

James Cone's CV, listing him as the founder of Black Liberation Theology:
James Cone - Union Theological Seminary
In context, Dr. Cone's use of the terms white, black, whiteness and blackness are not normally referring to a persons skin color. Of course you would actually have to read his books to understand that. Dr. Cone has been questioned many times on this issue. Here is one interview.

Dialogue on Black Theology

Hordern :...On the one hand, in A Black Theology of Liberation, page 12, you say that blackness symbolizes the oppressors and enslavement. In that use a person with white skin may in fact be “black,” while a person with black skin may be “white.”...

Black Theology is racism plain and simple.

BS. Cone has been very explicit in Black Liberation Theology's hatred of Whites: "all white men are responsible for white oppression"

Start learning the truth, and stop validating Gruber's well-informed opinion of you and other Democrat voters.

So again your point is since Democrats embraced racists it's ok for conservatives to embrace racists.

Lol, again, I can't make this up this is the level of thought that conservatives produce, and for them they think its a winner. Lol

No, my point is that it's extremely hypocritical to condemn an R who merely spoke to a group, but embrace a D who was not only a member of but a leader of and recruiter for the KKK.

Gruber was right about the incredibly stupid Dem voter base.

OK so another dumb conservative argument, sinc Democrats are hypocritics, conservatives should be able to embrace racists.

Again, I can't make this stuff up. this is the level conservatives are at and they think it's a winner.

Not at all surprising considering Rev Wright's admission in 2007 of Obama's church of 20+ years, Trinity UCC, being based on racist White-hating Black Liberation Theology.
