So, while in the hotel room, I decided to give a look at the Black conservative shing ding on CSPAN being moderated by Jesse Lee Peterson.
Here are some thoughts as I watch..
If "white guilt" is a "bad thing", then why is "Black inferiority" not a bad thing?
Listening to CSPAN, I've heard Shelby Steele and LaShawn(?) mention feeling "inferiority" when they saw the images out of New Orleans.
Hmmm....
Looking back...
Joseph C. Phillips is the face of Black conservatives that will get Blacks to consider what is being said by being REASONABLE. Jesse Lee Peterson is not reasonable. He is a race hustler and poverty pimp. I found it interesting that Phillips spoke up and disagreed with what was being said at the same times I thought something should be said.
I also found it interesting that Phillips pointed out the hypercritical nature of Black conservatives and how that is perceived in the Black community.
I also found it interesting that Phillips said that Black conservatives make too much of media appointed "Black leaders" when people in the Black community don't give the "Black leaders" the weight and credibility that Black conservatives give those media appointed "Black leaders".
Phillips said MANY of the same things I have said, and have been criticized by internet conservatives for saying.
A few times I've written that I thought that Blacks were brain damaged as bourne out by the hypercritical nature of Blacks, left and right, towards the Black community.
Shelby Steele's continuing reference to "Black inferiority" has strengthened that belief.
If whites shouldn't feel white guilt why should Blacks feel "shame" at seeing Black victims of Katrina?
"If White guilt is a bad thing then why is Black inferiority not a bad thing.Are they connected two different emotion.Then you use shame and guilt as the same ;something wrong here.

Yeah, he was the only up there (JP) that seemed reasonable.
