"Real talk: Daniel Rubin has a great little piece up wherein he chats with The Field Negro, the Philly-based blogger who sharply ponders all things black on a daily basis. (Seriously, if you’ve never checked in with TFN, you should: Its author, Wayne Bennett, is a fantastic read who can cut through bullshit like a hot knife through butter, which is a far grosser analogy than I wanted to make, but there you have it.)"

To African Americans, he is part of a growing army of black Internet amateurs who have taken up the work once reserved for ministers and professional activists: the work of setting a black agenda, shaping black opinion and calling attention to the state of the nation's racial affairs."

"That's why I love the blog "Field Negro" so much. Field, as he's known to his fans, has the sense of reality that it takes to call out the (CowPuckey) of blame beating by those who are in positions of power and their lackeys. Because of his handle and his unabashed way of writing about racial issues, Field is often cited as a "Black blogger." What he is, however, is a first-class detector of blame deflection and an excellent student of history. If you want to write about the past and future of repression there's really no other perspective to take - which is why everyone should read Field."

Reagan: Ray, I appreciate you singing at the '84 republican party convention.
Ray: No worries Ronnie, glad to help you out. Had great fun performing at your Inaugural Ball.
I autographed my "Ray Charles: The Complete Country & Western Recordings" album for you and the wife.
Reagan: Thanks, I'm going to wear a groove in this record listening to it.
Ray: It's the least I can do for all your help with working on disability issues. Your proclamation "decade of disabled persons" and helping me with launching the National Organization On Disability's Ad Council campaign.
Mr Reagan, I want you and everybody to know that I live in a 'color blind world.'

If you think that is shocking, wait til I tell ya about the lying actor who is President now.
BTW, they are going to impeach that no good lying ass actor from Chicago.
But Mr. Reagan, you were a good President who brought down the Berlin Wall. That was magnificent!
But this President today sinks us deeper into war, and racial strife. Blacks are poorer than they have ever been before...no jobs.
America is headed toward the way of Detroit. They will impeach this President(GOP + Dems).
It's a shame. He is the country's first black President and he has made the worst showing of all previous Presidents.
It's a damn shame.

Brother Field, anon6:31am is Black and recognizes the great things Reagan did.
I mean, he was the first to bring awareness to our "color blind society".
And, don't forget, he freed East Berlin without firing a shot.
You see, when Reagan was President, Russia was afraid of Reagan.
But today it is just the reverse:
Obama is afraid of Russia!
Some of you FN Negroes need to wake up and appreciate Reagan....Obama did! That was a clue into the nature of this Negro...all good for Whites.
field negro said...

Well, considering negroes are the most ill-informed and unaware among us (according to the DOJ), their hate and disrespect isn't shocking.
Blacks consider Obama their messiah and give him a 90% approval rating.
There's nothing Obama can do that would cause him to lose support among blacks.
Which makes this SNL skit so funny.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1VqgTdUFtq8
Question is, how has Obama reward blacks for their undying loyalty?

Reagan turns around the worst economy since Roosevelt, sparks a 25 year boom, wins the Cold War, and makes Americans proud of their country again.
Obama adds 8 trillion in debt, puts 1/6 of the nation on food stamps, ruins the country's healthcare system, turns the military into a bathhouse, shreds the Constitution, imports tens of millions of welfare recipients along with their exotic diseases, and takes race relations back to Reconstruction.
Gotta love that Negro Logic.
Ronny: "Did you hear that Michael Brown's mom was arrested for felony robbery with a weapon when she attacked Michael Brown's Grandma over T-shirt money?
Ray: "Oh dem Negroes!"
Ronny: "Pants up, don't loot!"
Ray: "Stop it motherfucker or I'm a gonna piss my pants!"
Ray:
Ahahahahaha! You've got some good crack did you say Ronnie? What a joker ahaahaahaa!
Hmmm, gotta love redneck logic even more. (Sarcasm off)
Let's see now: Crack epidemic, tripled the debt, lost the trade war with countries like China and Japan, spread human rights abuses throughout the region and at home....I could go on. Glad to give u a link if u like.
Let's see now, Obama:
Deficit reduced by over trillion dollars, unemployment below 6% , record number of jobs added, OBL dead, overall reform of a f****d up healthcare system, GM saved, country saved from financial disaster after the fiasco of the George Bush presidency, and no major terrorist attacks on American soil.
Maybe I will give him a 7 and not a 6+.

Kinky you have hit my black hot button. That ungrateful sorry Obama has rewarded us with no jobs, less jobs and has ignored us as if we don't even exist. I will never forget it.
What's more, he has dug us into a deeper hole for the future to insure we will even go deeper into that snake hole.
So, to answer your question: "Obama has done NOTHING to reward or help us."
Congress, controlled by Republicans is a message re: Obama...he IS the worst...And this message comes from both Blacks and Whites.

Anon, I wish you wouldn't use the term "Negro facts". It sounds so bad for the entire black race. Not all Blacks are Negroes with unreasonable and illogical reasoning.
FYI. AAs are very segmented. One segment does not think or relate like the other. In other words, there are Blacks who 'recognize' and 'don't identify' with Negroes who support Obama.
It's unfortunate that Blacks aren't a cohesive race, but some Blacks live in reality. Negroes like Field, PX and PC don't.
Sorry Anon, no offense to coherent thinking blacks.
Those are "negro facts" in that they are those that are presented to blacks by the media.
Field probably doesn't know any better.
Skoal Brother.
PC, is right. You are not black. And besides, even if u were, you certainly would not be considered a brother of mine.
Such TNB Field, even from you. He can call you anything he wants. There's that pesky 1st Amendment that allows. What would you prefer? For him/her to call you a N!&&@&? You'd be pissed off at that too.
BTW the weekend Chicago shit show has recorded its 4 confirmed kill along with 12 wounded. The lack of shame is simply stunning.

If a leftist moon bat site pretending to do "Independent Investigative Journalism Since 1995" says it be true, than it mus be true.

I also notice you didn't mention income growth for poor and the middle class families and wage growth under Obama.

unemployment below 6%
U.S. unemployment decrease reflects more workforce dropouts
Even so, the unemployment rate dropped from 6.2 percent to 6.1 percent, in large part, because what’s known as the participation rate fell.
In other words, even more Americans dropped out of the workforce.
http://www.pbs.org/newshour/bb/reddy/
People continue to stop looking for work, and in doing so, are dropping out of the labor pool. In fact, the participation rate in the labor force has fallen to 62.7 percent -- its lowest level since early 1978.
http://www.cbsnews.com/news/why-are-people-leaving-the-workforce/
Despite the unemployment rate plummeting, more than 92 million Americans remain out of the labor force.
...
The fall in the unemployment rate was due mainly to the exodus of people who stopped looking for work.

Brother Field, for you it's probably true. Negroes split off from the rest of the race with the illusion of 'Negro facts' that were designed to hide the truth, and the inability of Negroes to think and use facts.
It's understandable because the "facts" hurt, they really hurt. However, Blacks have decided to work through the pain, instead of being enslaved by it...i.e., not run from it like cowardly Negroes like yourself and PC.
I know you don't consider me a brother, but I know someday, with the help of Bill and Kinky, you will see the light and embrace me as your black brother....keep the faith, brother.
Reagan should have been executed for treason. He made a deal with Khomeini to keep Americans hostage while Carter was still president. George Bush was heavily involved also. Having a stolen copy of Carter's debate preparations also helped get Reagan elected. So far, we've seen Clinton cover up for Reagan and Bush, and Obama cover up for W.'s crimes. Liberals should vote Green Party and conservatives should vote Libertarian. Democrats and Republicans are fascists.
Seriously?
