Reply #44: DAMN you hit the nail on the head. It is exactly that -- a 1970 victim mentality [View All]

Those of us who know anything about anything understand exactly what you're saying.

See post #40 from ProSense. (I don't think that it's a coincidence that 90% of the black posters on this site are on the same side.) She has some great pieces from other black academics who are also sick of Cornell's shit.

Edit: West was obviously pandering to white liberals with his comments. This type of behavior is nothing new -- tear the brother down in order to build up cred with those outside of the community and who don't understand it. The only people who seem the most supportive of West's comments are people who don't have the first damn clue what the man's true issues with the president are or exactly how what he said is so offensive and disgusting. That is truly saying something.
