I'm sorry but I don't buy your arguement that "positive" racism exists - that you become so focused on your own ethnic group, that you exclude and denegrate others not of your group... finally it feeds on itself further and then you start labelling those within your group as "good" and "bad", and placing greater value on subsets within your ethnic group.
All of this is unfortunately evidenced by the crap posted on your "brother's" website - revistionist history, gentic linkage of "whites" to Satan and/or lizards, use of the term "race traitor" towards those who don't believe what he's preaching, statements on how "Blackmen" are the leaders of the "race" and "Blackwomen" must serve them, homophobic statements, and so on... just go through his entire site and tell me if you can still be an apologist for the actions of a hatemonger...

It is unfortunate that you've misunderstood my definition of positive racism. Should you go back and read my definition, you will notice I said nothing about excluding others. I said one is so concerned with the needs of their own group that they don't have time to denounce others.
I see the point you make; and believe it or not, I share your sentiment on hatred. I think it's stupid to hate a group.
I acknowledge the merit of facts brought up by my brother, PHAShriner 1906, however offensively perceived; and I say the fact remains that the present state of African-Americans is the fault of many people-white and black, men and women. I will also say that my sisters' role in our present and future states is a unique one. The choice for mates, the denial of knowledge of the systematic economic castration of brothers, and their embrace of this "independence" movement is having a huge divisive impact on us as a national family.
