Black and White

Would Blacks across the country really rise up in solidarity with looters?

Whites would not. Asians would not. Would Latinos? Surely not Jews. Muslims?

When Blacks study hard and speak proper English, they are accused by their peers of "acting White", of being Uncle Toms. It is the Black Community, whatever that is, that defines its own culture, and it has embraced a characterization of negatives. What's left for them, when they reject Whitey's norms, is unsuccessful behavior, and victimhood. A poor strategy in a world of competitive labor.

What are the percentages of success for "acting White"; how many rise up out of poverty by "acting Black."

Tough questions, with tough answers. As Thomas Sowell points out, many Blacks in this country voluntarily define themselves as rednecks. As memes go, it is quite the virus.
