I agree! Both the liberals and conservatives have failed Black folks. At the end of the day, Black people need to solve their own problems or become a permanent underclass. The [buffer class] is exponentially growing and increasingly distracting from seriously addressing the benign neglect of Black folks. Black mass prison incarceration creates lucrative benefits for whites and other minorities.
I’m just in the beginning chapters. Dr. Cherry has criticism for the Left, but cities the organization set up by President Obama as a program that uses some of “his” suggested methodology.
At least in the beginning chapters, there is nothing new to see. The Right loves to own the Libs and pretend that they have something new to say. They talk about the damage caused by things like gangster rap, forgetting that Reverend Al Sharpton and the late Dorothy Height were early critics of the genre. The NAACP actually held a “funeral” for the N-word. If the book cannot tell the full history of events, I may regret taking the time to read the so-called eye opening suggestions.
It is very rich to read the words of people willing to vote for a conman and sexual harasser tell others to behave with honor. These are the folks willing to rig elections. I can’t stop laughing.
The Black community has organizations combating the failures. The problem is that it is at an “each one, teach one” level because funding is low. Conservatives love to dance on our graves. Liberals love to dictate what needs to be done.
Conservatives are quite predictable. I will not waste my money on the same old tired out talking points. It will take lots of resources to deal with the pathogies in the inner cities. Redlinning and it's consequences was initiated by white racists.
Thank you. Conservatives are not interested in the fate of Black people. Like Dr. Cherry, Conservatives are only interested in forwarding their political belief system. They will hold to the idea that Black people are genetically inferior but praise Thomas Sowell who views Black genetic inferiority a farce.
Conservatives will elect Donald Trump, Marjorie Taylor Greene, Paul Gosar, et al and tell that they don’t have a racist bone in their bodies. As you note from commentary on this site, Conservatives are never going to offer solutions beneficial to Black people. Reading Dr. Cherry’s book, you realize that the goal is to tell you that Liberals have no solution. He then throws out programs that Conservatives will never fund as bones to distract you.
Blacks will survive the way they have always survived, with little help fro white society.
The goal of the Civil War was not to free the slaves. The enslaved people and activists like Frederick Douglas and Martin Delaney took advantage of a situation to gain their own freedom.
Lincoln would have left Blacks enslaved unless he was forced to glory as described by Black historian Lerone Bennett.
When you see Conservatives taunting Blacks and trying own the Liberals, remember they were never really on your side.
They can re-elect Trump. They can elect book banning DeSantis. They can elect race-baiting Nimrata. Blacks will still rise and Conservatives will hate it.
