Damn. I usually don't want to post any negatively controversial info on any site...
But I really wanted some feedback on this cat. Like I said, I never really understood the idea or concept of the phrase "uncle tom", because I'd never seen it in action. Until now.. Check this guy out..

Maybe ya'll have seen this clip from Media Matters, but it was new to me and actually literally made me sick to my stomach. I've seen a lot on my life, but it really struck me how an African American could talk like this.

Patterson laid the foundation for Whitlock's media resurgence.
There will always be a place for perceived Black leaders to disparage their own on a national scale. Largely because they will always tout the misinformed biases of those who'd rather not say it...for them. And by those... I mean people who don't look like Patterson.

"I'd grown up fearing the lynch mobs of the Ku Klux Klan; as an adult, I was starting to wonder if I'd been afraid of the wrong white people all along. My worst fears had come to pass not in Georgia but in Washington, D.C., where I was being pursued not by bigots in white robes but by left-wing zealots draped in flowing sanctimony."
