Calm down, folks. They were immersing themselves in Islamic culture as a learning experience.

Perhaps it would be best if I remind some of the folks here of the blatant racism directed at black conservatives by liberals for the sin of wandering off the plantation that they established for them. Since I mentioned Condoleeza Rice first let's start with her.


Los Angeles TimesisBoston Globe's

"Is you there 'cause you a high-toned public Negro?
Is you their black-haired answer-mammy who be smart?
Does they like how you shine their shoes, Condoleezza?
Or the way you wash and park the whitey's cars.

Georgie junior says he trusts you, Condoleezza.
Who said our [unintelligible] off the greedy oil woes.
But then he make you clean all the White House bathrooms.
The public sink, the toilet and let's scrub the floors."

The NAACP, Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton... none of the usual suspects, ever asked for Rogers to be yanked off the air (which they would if Condolezza Rice was a liberal) much less even bothered to ask for a simple apology. It was, say it with me now, nearly completely ignored because Rice is conservative.

Then there is the poet laureate of New Jersey, Amiri Baraka (a.k.a., Everett LeRoi Jones, Imamu Amear Baraka), who wrote a poem blaming the Jews for the 9/11 terrorist attacks ("Who told 4000 Israeli workers at the Twin Towers to stay home that day? Why did Sharon stay away?") where he also attacked not only Rice but Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas and Secretary of State Colin Powell as well in one of his tax-payer sponsored "poems":

Who do Tom Ass Clarence Work for
Who doo doo come out the Colon's mouth
Who know what kind of Skeeza is a Condoleeza

Once again, imagine the reaction if a conservative had said similar things about liberal blacks.


The next one I mentioned was the considerably lesser known former Maryland Lt. Governor and RNC chairman Michael S. Steele (who liberals pelted with Oreo cookies, called an "Uncle Tom" and depicted as a black-faced minstrel). Boston Globe movie critic Wesley Morris likened the House Negro in , played by Samuel L. Jackson, to Steele.

And then there was this image of him circulated on liberal websites (next to an actual picture)

Milwaukee Journal Sentinel^[1]Martin Bashir in 2013 that Thomas is "a symbolic Jew has invited a metaphoric Hitler to commit holocaust and genocide upon his own people." The host, Martin Bashir (who would shortly resign after calling for someone to [vulgar term for defecate] in Sarah Palin's mouth) simply responded to this slur with a calm "thank you."

The November 1997 cover of EmergeEmerge^[2]

USA Today columnist and "Pacifica Radio" talk show host Julianne Malveaux^[3] related her feelings toward Thomas on a 1994 episode of To the ContraryWashington Postliterally his bedfellow."

Wow.

But that is hardly all.

Former U.S. Court of Appeals Judge the late A. Leon Higginbotham declared during a speech at New York University that Thomas is paving the way for the reinstituting white supremacy and asserted that his conservative views are a symptom of "racial self-hatred." He then went on to offer proof of his diagnoses -- that Thomas is married to a white woman. This, Higginbotham, said is evidence that Thomas "hates black women."

USA Today1. After the death of Antonin Scalia the "Twitterverse" absolutely lit up with liberals wishing that Thomas would die soon.

2. Lee once declared that Michael Williams was an "Uncle Tom" who needed to be "dragged into the alley and beaten with a Louisville Slugger" for promoting race-neutral scholarships while serving as a senior official in the Bush Administration's Department of Education.

3.Washington Post

Looks like this needs to be re-posted since it got the leftists here all so worked up in their studious effort to dismiss it without actually addressing anything it says.

Maybe since all that was just the vile the left vented toward only 3 blacks who had the audacity to leave the liberal plantation I should add a couple of other examples

I guess I could include General Colin Powell. Even though he became a Republican he's less a conservative and more of a maverick than the late John McCain ever dreamed of being that didn't stop liberals from savaging him^[1] but I think I'd rather pick someone much more recent, folks the left have only had a couple years to demonize.

Let's start with the person mentioned in the OP: Kanye West.

When he called George W. Bush a racist, saying that he "doesn't care about black people" during a live TV broadcast of "A Concert for Hurricane Relief," he was a darling of the left, much lauded for "speaking truth to power." But boy how that has changed since he started expressing admiration for Trump.

On CNN Tonight, anchor Don Lemon implied that his pro-Trump tweets ought to be seen as evidence that West does "not "care about black people."

Apparently The Root, a website which bills itself as providing "thought-provoking commentary and news from a variety of black perspectives," pretty much made it clear that there is only one "black perspective" and like CNN's Lemon has proclaimed

Washington PostSlate^[2]New York Times went after West insinuating that the bond between him and Trump (which apparently goes back several years) is a sign that his mental health is now up for debate^[3][4]Guardians of the GalaxyThe View

New York Times Op-Ed as a "token." Similarly NAACP President Benjamin Jealous attacked Scott shortly after he became a Senator as a "token" and declaring that Scott knows nothing about and is opposed to civil rights which he backed up by simply saying that Scott is a conservative Republican which is now tantamount to opposing "civil rights" as defined by liberals these days.

When he announced that he'd support Jeff Sessions for Attorney General Scott was labeled "a disgrace to the black race" called "Uncle Tom Scott," "a house negro like the one in Jango" and "a big Uncle Tom piece of fertilizer" (Scott actually read some of the comments on the Senate floor noting he excluded all the ones where he was called the n-word).

Andy Ostroy, a Political and Pop Culture Analyst at Huffington Post, attacked Scott calling him nothing more than a "black ... manipulated prop" at a ceremony celebrating the passage of the Republican tax relief bill ignoring the fact he was there due to being instrumental in writing the bill and a key player in getting it passed in the Senate.


There ya go. A whole lot more examples of how the left treats blacks if they don't conform to how they proclaim that blacks are permitted to think and act.












1. for instance, aside from being called a "spearchucker" by the Cleveland Plain Dealer's Metro columnist Sam Fullwood, the singer Harry Belafonte, the "King of Calypso," infamously alluded to Colin Powell as being a "house nigger" which blacks like the celebrated author Walter Mosley. applauded.

2. His mother-in-law Kris Jenner, a hard-core Hillary supporter, made a big fuss over wanting to make sure that everyone knows that West lives in a house worth $60 million, not $20 million like he had said -- as if that matters.

3. There are many actions that one could point to in West's past which might lead one to wonder about him but they picked his friendship with Trump

4. In a tweet Kim Kardashian wrote:


And


Seems like in the second one that she had the New York Times specifically in mind.
