Rather than denegrate, denegro, right? Hey, whatever. You might be a Black Muslim. Never know. Although, come to think of it, I bet you're white. Lily white.

There are many things about the culture worth keeping, and I see an increasing number of blacks who have been able to consolidate these good things in their own personal cultures while leaving behind the modern negro culture that sprang up due the the promptings of men like Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton. My hope is to see this black culture grow such that the schism between it and the negro culture is made wider and more pronounced. I think when this happens, more whites will readily see the distinction that already exists and begin to more confidently ignore the whining of the negros while extending themselves toward the blacks. Cyberken does this thing that I think is quite perceptive. When he attacks negros, he is very sure to explain that he is attacking only this particular low-income, ignorant segment that has been completely bamboozled by leftists into remaining on the plantation with their hands open in petitions for greater hand-outs. The distinction is there, it is already clear, it is growing. I think it is time to point it out and then help amplify it. There is just no way we can legitimately claim such people as Powell and Rice are part of a defeated segment of the country just because they are blacks. These people ain' no dang victims. And it is not just because of wealth either that we can make this distinction. There is a certain difference in attitude and bearing that often is readily detectable between the two groups. I see it in wealthy blacks and in blacks who are less fortunate financially. There are blacks in my church who are just guys and gals. No one gets creepy about them at all because these folks don't have chips on their shoulders.
