PerroLoco-
I've not read his treatise either but I've heard him talk about it. I think he's dead wrong. He just doesn't get it. What's more assinine is the notion that Bil Cosby, because of his wealth, has lost contact with the black poor. Garbage!!!! Bill Cosby grew up in the 'hood and has impeccible "progressive" credentials. What he's saying is what our mamas, grandmas, and grandpapas always told us: it makes a difference if you weren't "raised right." You can hear conversations in any barber shop, church,den, or cookout in the black community and hear the same thing, from people of various income levels and social classes. It's the unbalanced thinking of Dyson which is out of touch with the black community. We've got to tell the real(ie,whole) story and not be politically correct for fear of playing into the hands of white racists, for our own good--a point Cosby rightly makes. We are at a crossroads;we have to get back to what's got us this far!
