"Black Like Me."



I have to confess (and lord forgive me for this one) but I can't watch Cornel West for one minute. Every time I see fam on television I change the channel. I have heard that he is a smart guy, and that he sometimes says some deep things, but I will never know, because......well....I just can't watch or listen to him. I know that many of you have a predilection for all things West so you will have to help me out with this one. Please tell me why I should force myself to start listening to him. "Otay"? (Stop it field)




Anyway, I notice that my man has been in the news of late because, much to the delight of wingnuts, he has had some not too flattering things to say about O, and it has started an interesting debate among us black folks about what it means to be truly black.



For the record, O's upbringing and the way he chooses to carry himself should not define his blackness or lack of it. We have to judge him by his actions as president for all the people of these divided states who comes to the office from the unique position of being able to feel our pain.




This is a good discussion to have on Malcolm's birthday; is O in the house? Personally, I don't think so. I think he visits it quite often and is comfortable when he is in there, but that is not where his heart is. I think his heart is outside in the fields. ( I think)



But I want to ask Mr. West to put his Ivy League mind to work and tell me exactly what he would want his O ness to do to help black A-merry-ca. I want to know what policies he would implement and how he would go about getting it done. I want to know how he would better use the "bully pulpit" to (if I may get a little colloquial) hook us up.



I know what I would like O to do: Get our troops out of Afghanistan and Iraq, use the "bully pulpit" to talk more about urban issues such as education, and turn Eric Holder loose on some of those Wall Street crooks. Yes, I am pissed that he extended the Bush tax cuts. Yes, I am pissed that he kept Gitmo open. And, yes, I am pissed that ddn't go far enough on health care reform and with the stimulus package.



Still, having said that, I have to acknowledge that he at least tried with health care, there was some Wall Street reform, and a little stimulus package is better than none at all.



I am not sure what you Negroes who were waiting on the Magic Negro expected. O can't work miracles and make your lives better. I hate to sound like a conservative, but government can only do so much. If you thought O was going to get into office and your lives were going to change overnight, you have another thing coming. Urban terrorist are still going to rob and steal, greedy polititicksters on the local and national level are still going to line their pockets, first. And the corporate machine of greed that drives A-merry-ca isn't going anywhere. In short, it's business as usual in A-merry-ca. If there is going to be any change it's going to have to come from within each and every individual who really wants it.




I thought that a - supposedly- smart man like Cornel West would know that.

outtatownsteve,

When a professor leaves Harvard as West did, it's because he was fired.

I know this reality is over your head, but when the president of the university calls a prof on the carpet for failure to perform his contractual obligations, it's a firing, and obviously he had been warned more than once.

On top of everything else, he's the epitome of an elitist, teaching subjects that have absolutely no usefulness in a nation that's crying for engineers, scientists, and makers of the goods and services that allow gasbags like West to twiddle around in their Ivory Towers.

Dr. Queen:

nigs hate god's hair

they hate all that is black and nappy as god made us

shame!!!!

Legendary reggae dub poet, gifted actor, and star of the classic rebel slave film "Sankofa", Mutabaruka, said it best, in his classic rebel song “Witeman country”: “It no good to stay in a witeman country too long”... It is common to be infected with the poison of white supremacy in a racist country like America. From cosmetic commercials to supermodels, from billboards to magazines, from TV screens to movie screens, and from center stages to centerfolds, straight hair rules. It is typical to emulate such bombardment with the epitome of eurocentric “womanhood” that haunts us everywhere, even on the arms of many of our “brothers”.

Renown author and sage Alice Walker is beautiful. And so are her locks. In “Oppressed Hair Puts A Ceiling on the Brain”, an essay in her classic collection of non-fiction titled Living by The Word, Alice states:

“...It occurred to me that in my physical self there remained one last barrier to my spiritual liberation...my hair...It was the way I related to it that was the problem...I suddenly understood why nuns and monks shaved their heads...I remembered years of enduring hairdressers, from my mother onward, doing missionary work on my hair. They dominated, suppressed, controlled. Now, more or less free, [my hair] stood this way and that...It never thought of laying down. Flatness, the missionary position did not interest it. It sought more and more space, more light, more of itself. It loved to be washed; but that was it.

Eventually, I knew precisely what hair wanted. It wanted to grow, to be itself, to attract lint, but to be left alone by anyone, including me, who did not love it as it was...(I was now able, as an added bonus, to comprehend Bob Marley as the mystic his music has always indicated he was.) The ceiling at the top of my brain lifted; once again my mind (and spirit) could get outside myself...This was the gift of my growth during my fortieth year. This - the realization that as long as there is joy in creation, there will always be new creations to discover, or rediscover, and that a prime place to look is within and about the self. That even death, being part of life, must offer at least one moment of delight.”

jew liar kosher kkk needs slaps:

you lie like hobama

even summers admitted he was irked by what cornel did OSD the campus


After a highly publicized flap with his boss over outside activities, Harvard University professor and black activist Cornel West announced Monday he was leaving for another Ivy League school, Princeton.
West, who has worked in Harvard's Afro-American studies department, said his departure was the result of the university picking on the "wrong Negro." West was involved in a dispute in January with Harvard president and former Clinton administration Treasury Secretary Larry Summers, who admonished West for a variety of perceived offenses.

Summers accused West of inflating student grades, and criticized West for taking part in the recording of a self-described "hip-hop" CD, for pushing Al Sharpton's presidential campaign and for writing what Summers deemed pop culture books instead of academic books.

An outraged West announced that he felt "attacked and insulted" and would not tolerate "disrespect."

"[Summer's] attack on me was the wrong person, wrong professor and the wrong Negro, as it were. There is a certain level of respect that I require," West said on Monday's "The Tavis Smiley Show" on National Public Radio. West called Summers' criticism an "attack on me" and referred to Summers as "the Ariel Sharon of American higher education," a reference to the hard-line Israel Prime Minister.

I adore and revere that truly Christian heroic and regal black man Cornel
-----

Well this regal black man has been married and divorced 4 times. Obviously, he has some serious issues with women. I would wager at least one, if not more of them -were white. When asked about his marriages and relationships, he gave this narcissistic, bullshyte answer.

Excerpt:

“The basic problem with my love relationships with women is that my standards are so high -- and they apply equally to both of us. I seek full-blast mutual intensity, fully fledged mutual acceptance, full-blown mutual flourishing, and fully felt peace and joy with each other. This requires a level of physical attraction, personal adoration, and moral admiration that is hard to find. And it shares a depth of trust and openness for a genuine soul-sharing with a mutual respect for a calling to each other and to others. Does such a woman exist for me? Only God knows and I eagerly await this divine unfolding. Like Heathcliff and Catherine’s relationship in Emily Bronte’s remarkable novel Wuthering Heights or Franz Schubert’s tempestuous piano Sonata No. 21 in B flat (D.960) I will not let life or death stand in the way of this sublime and funky love that I crave!”

"If there is going to be any change it's going to have to come from within each and every individual who really wants it."

Sure. But that wouldn't have made a good campaign slogan... instead it was "change we can believe in" and "yes we can."

Obama has betrayed the people who voted for him and believed his populous rhetoric. I especially feel regret for the damage he has done to the young people who supported him and believed his promise: "yes, we can." If it wasn't for them, he wouldn't be where he is now. Will they ever trust another "politician" ever again?

Obama's always reminded me of a research project, which was reported on by Diane Sawyer. The most popular kids in class, the researchers discovered, had the most social skills because they were liars. Obama has no problem with lying, because this is what all his Ivy League white establishment education and social training has taught him. The ends justify the means. Obama promised to do good, but once he was elected, he's just gone about the business of doing well for himself.

Al Sharpton is a loudmouth and a stooge. He's lost all credibility as a "civil-rights activist." Sharpton is a turd for defending Obama's dismal record on any issue, foreign or domestic.

If you were truly interested in seeking Truth you could have applied Socratic questions. Things like, were you an ordained or lay preacher? Was this a intelligent Protestant or a Cretinism Protestant? Was it Protestant at all? See...easy peasy.
Instead...you want items that can be used to track down the identity behind the nom de Intertubes. Stalking. And the threat is not far behind.

Sitting beside Obama following a private Oval Office meeting, the visiting prime minister said Friday that he values the president's efforts to advance the peace process and intends to work with him.

The one thing that Obama's presidency has proved to me is how unimaginably blind and ignorant a whole lot of black people are. And dying from with jealousy becaus,e yes, we are just that petty and small. Obama is afraid of "free black men"? Is that a black man who is so stuck in a slave mentatlity that he thinks there is an actual test to prove someone's blackness? I think negroes like West are afraid of an intelluctual, sophisticated, urbane black man who doesn't talk in rhymes and rhetoric to make a point.

It also scares negroes like West that Obama doesn't seek West's opinion. The fact that West whines that he didn't get an invite to the inauguration while a black hotel worker did shrieks of West's own sorry classism. The mane is a fraud. West talked about Obama like a dog before the election, and now he rewrites history to express outrage that Obama didn't invite him to the inauguration?

Cornel West is cornball pond scum and an embarrassment. He sure as hell does not speak for me. Maybe this incident puts to rest that he speaks for hardly anyone black.

Fool.

@ no_slappz: Why do you bother with mold? It says the same nonsensical things over and over.

You're right. My mistake.

Mold is completely unhinged from reality and is not here to engage conversation but rather to spew vitriol, make bizarre claims, and advance the cause of irrationality. And it smells bad.

It's just that I had a fleeting hope that something about the delusional, schizophrenic mold was actually in reach of google. So I gave it a shot.

The possibility that the screwball behind the screen-name can be found on the Internet is well within the realm of the possible.

My name -- the person behind no_slappz -- generates a lot of hits when googled. However, that's hardly news for someone who's had a lot of work published by legitimate venues.

Israel has been, and continue to be a racist, apartheid state. Besides, with friends like them, who needs enemies. I thinking the U.S.S. Liberty and Jonathan Pollard to name a few.

I've been having problems posting again, it would not let me post. All I could do was read the comment, and I couldn't help but laugh at anonymous who took what I said the last time I posted serious about the chants and prayers. That was too funny. Did you think that I had grew horns too? LOL! RottnKid and Desert caught on quick and joined in on the fun. DesertFlower, I forgot to add those.

Anonymous, relax, I was just jesting. Laughter is good medicine for the soul.

Yes, when you don't have the intelligence to understand real issues or discuss the FACTS or what was said, call the whites racists and blacks toms. Typical liberal pc of shit.

Yeah and just last night someone said you were on a pancake box, so what's the point. Israel is the only country very similar to the US in terms of democracy, talent, exceptionalism and that it supports minorities who otherwise would starve. YOUR a hater of america so you don't get to say who our allies are. No demented leftist set out to destroy her do. Don't ever forget that.

What a bunch of shit.

I agree with Field. I turn the channel after listening to Cornel West too. It's true, Obama doesn't come from a "Black" agenda. He grew up surrounded by Whites all his life. But when he decided to settle down as an adult he moved to Chicago. He got involved in community efforts and it took him years to be accepted. To his credit he moved back to Chicago when he graduated from law school. He could have worked with a "prestigious" firm on the east coast. He braved the notorious Chicago machine an emerged as a senator. How do you think he did that by being a militant Black? No by forming alliances with Jews, Whites and Blacks. If he was progressive as people try to paint him, he wouldn't be president. You know it. I want jobs, the wars to end, Gitmo closed and better health care. If Obama didn't have to fight Congress, not only the Republicans but also the Democrats, maybe he could have done more. Nevertheless, he has my vote. Cornel West is the go to guy for Obama opposition. After all, he's Ivy League too. But would you vote for him? Would he get the Democratic nomination? I don't think so. Obama is the only president my grandson knows. I will always love him for that. My grandson will never doubt that he can be president. Rejoice in that.

I really dont like the tone of Alicia's post but this is once that I can agree with her. Anyone that can call Cornel a fool or egoist or any number of names he has been called here is just so silly, when the truth hurts you attack, your inability to deal with truth and your own ignorance is just so telling.

I knew Obama like all presidential candidates would never live up to all that I want in a president. but i voted for him for no other reason than the knowledge that he would be naming a supreme court justice. that is enough for me. on paper Kucinich was my guy, but he is too ugly for americans and too honest.

Plantsmantx said...

Look, I personally think Obama is too much like Clinton with a tan. Fine, I can dig it, DLC Corporatist who happens to be a great crisis manager and shrew pol - just not my bag.

Yep, that's about it, and that fact renders his "blackness", to whatever degree he possesses it, pretty much irrelevant.

So...what are black people going to do?

It seems like the government can only do so much but I remain heartened that the government is able to rise to the occasion when needed: Blackwater, Liberty University, Wall Street. ;-)

Ms. Myma,

THANKS! Your words ring true and it's only the ill informed that can't see the forest for the trees.

Some people need to look at his heroes ( Kant Haggle Hume) and maybe they will get some insight as to the real man is.

Whew...
I came to this site to see how I was to feel. I am confused because it is obvious and even West admitted he was having a temper tantrum, but he may have a point about the "free black man" thing. If O was a free Black man he would not be in the white house, I know it and so do you.

Nice try there Field but Dr West has been spot on about Obama and Tavis who knew him before he was the President is never one to play with the truth.
This attempt to bring this thing down to what he can,cannot or should do for black people is a farce. Obama was elected by the people of the United States because they were tired of what the reactionaries were doing to destroy it. Obama came aboard and continued the same destructive policies and he is even worst because he knows better than his predecessor but as Dr West so aptly puts it "He is a coward".
Isn't it interesting that Al Sharpton whom he avoided for his first election he now embraces! Now to help a second term along, he orders a hit on a man whom Clinton and Bush could have killed but did not. He's quick to tell young black boys to pull up their pants but acts humble and meek when he was confronted by that Gates situation and the same rapacious bankers and corporate businessmen whom raped this country,he pals around with instead of getting the Justice Dept to indict.
It is understandable that someone like yourself Field, who comes out of the West Indies would hate Dr West. You see the British have done a great job of having you folks hate yourselves to such a point that you would do nothing for or about the nation that gave birth to and nourished your ancestors and you. Instead you get out of it as fast as possible to come here to the US,to live especially among white folks and adopt this attitude that you're better than American blacks because you don't mind the whip across your back now and then.
Well the American black fought for his civil right and contributed to many other things in this nation something that you self hating West Indians should try to understand.
Maybe if Dr West adopts a better hairstyle or play the game of I just want to get along the truth be dammed he would be more palpable to folks like you.
Lets see if you're courageous enough to post this "rant"

Cornel West and the Memphis flood.

After watching the debacle this week, of how a tenured black professor at a near white Ivy league college, could accuse the first African American president of the US, of not being "black enough"? We knew that the good brother doctor has been on a tirade for the past two years, being the authority on all things black, but, what really made him go over the edge? What would make him insult not only the first AM president of the US, but his own rich white friends, or his Jewish professor colleague that shares the employee lounge? President Obama's trip to Memphis.

You see, after 2 years of being the purveyor of all things poor and black, And how the inner city AM's are against Obama for being "ignored", The good brother doctor had to watch that these graduates had the nerve to take their destiny in their own hands. They didn't sit around and wait for their 40 acres and a mule, and were rewarded for their hard work. He must of believed that their tears were because they met the president, instead of tears for themselves and their accomplishments, none of which they ever found in one of the good Doctor's books.

So Dr. West is to be pitied, not ridicule. He is fighting his own death of ideals, and it is not pretty.

Oh boy Field; I just saw this story make it onto the Chris Matthews show Hardball, and had that sinking feeling you sometimes get when you see black people (in this case Sharpton and Jon Capehart from the Wash Post).

I had a feeling that West had jumped the shark a long time ago. It was nice to read though, his account of O "cussin' him out". I chuckled at that one!
