"Few people are more contemptible than some self-anointed Keeper of Negritude who attempts to teach other blacks how to be black."
"Our Mr. Black Man suggests, of course, that he is the true black and that I, the D.C. mayor and police chief are not because we do not believe in letting crime fester among our people. As all such fools and hypocrites do, he argues that, because blacks have been mistreated by the police, we must not cooperate with them when they come fort he bad guys destroying our communities.
"To the contrary, I agree with writer Stanley Crouch, in the latest issue of New York magazine: 'The greatest threat to black life and limb is not the police; it's criminals in our community . . .'"
"Perhaps I am not black enough for my letter writer, but I am black enough to know that black criminals victimize their own people. And evidence tells me that black people here in St. Petersburg also need to turn in thugs who make life unsavory in many southside neighborhoods. "

Booker T. Washington said:
"There is another class of colored people who make a business of keeping the troubles, the wrongs, and the hardships of the Negro race before the public. Having learned that they are able to make a living out of their troubles, they have grown into the settled habit of advertising their wrongs -- partly because they want sympathy and partly because it pays. Some of these people do not want the Negro to lose his grievances, because they do not want to lose their jobs....There is a certain class of race-problem solvers who do not want the patient to get well, because as long as the disease holds out they have not only an easy means of making a living, but also an easy medium through which to make themselves prominent before the public."
