As we all have heard by now, Black is Back. Let's see here we have a Black President in the US. The GOP elects their first black RNC Chair, and we have our Second Black Head Coach of a World Championship National Football team. Seeing as how the latter is a Second I'll focus on the other two. Go Steelers!
Now is racism dead in America? I for one think not, I find it ironic (hmmm is that the right word?) that the GOP has elected their first Black Chair during this time. Honestly are we as a people that ignorant that we can not see through the party line? It seems to me, the only reason that Steele was selected was because he is Black. Now as far as Affirmative action hires go this one here is at the top. It is no secret that whenever a Black man speaks out against the government and is intelligent or does something to try and change the way things are; the first thing that white people do is run out and find the first black person they can who will stand in opposition of the first. Why is this?
Well the answer to that question is simple and plain. No white person in a position of power or public view wants to be percieved as being a racist. So by putting a black face in front of them they can still hide thier true feelings and get their point across. The only reason Steele was selected was to allow the GOP to attack Obama without appearing to be racist and losing support. This is why I love the south you know, in the South a Spade is a Spade, a Jig is a fishing lure, and a Ho is a gardening tool, and most importantly a nigger is just that.
When do we speak up and let white people know that we are not as gullible and ignorant as they would like to believe us to be. really we saw it during the campaign trail when Hillary released her guard dog to attack Obama about playing the so called race card. This practice as far as I am concerned in disgusting. By putting a black face on does not mean you do not appear to be racist, it simply means that you are a Coward and a Racist.
The funny thing here is if Hillary would have been elected, do you think Michael Steele still would have gotten the nod? somehow I doubt that very seriously.
