Nobody cares what Uncle Tom has to say.

Well except for racist whites looking for validation.

Shhhh.... We're not supposed to talk about successful black people. It violates the liberal narrative of the Evil White Man oppressing the helpless black people.

Some people would say the same thing about Neil Degrasse Tyson, or anyone else that breaks the mold.

The problem isnt talking about successful black people, the problem is only talking about successful conservative black people or anyone you see as degrading what you believe to be black culture.


If these people are black and conservative, that means they pulled themselves up by the boot straps and made something of themselves, so on and so forth.

But if they are liberal, then all of their accomplishments are said to be the result of affirmative action and gaming the system.

Couldn't rep you again, but boy, those last two statements are spot on. We see them expressed again and again and again here on C-D. Successful Conservative blacks worked for it; successful liberal blacks had it handed to them. No way could a liberal black possibly have done anything to warrant their success. And I have no doubt those who post such tripe actually believe it.

yea, the Uncle Tom part is racist.

Not the second sentence though,it is truth. That is why this thread exist, someone seeking black validation for their opinions.

Its how Ben Carson and Thomas Sewell get so many threads started about them that involve race when one is an economist and the others is a doctor.
