The fact is there is a sizable group of people in our race that feels being authentically Black means you must accept low expections as the norm and denounce anything that is perceived to be White.

The slave culture, "ole mastar" forced on us, is still with us. This culture was designed to get us to accept the dog shack as our place, stupidity/sleaziness/dirtiness as our norm and horrid abuse as what we deserve.
The sad thing is some "brothers" have owned aspects of this warped culture, made it "cool" and are just determined to enforce its low standards, in the name of our people, without ever realizing whose wicked will they are truly enforcing. To paraphrase the Bible, "Father forgive them, for they know not what they do."
