On Barack: An Open Letter and Invitation to Thoughtful Brothers And Sisters In America

She said it, I didn't:

"For example, how does a white man who signed the deeply disparate crack-cocaine bill into law, introduced a devastating crime bill that further entrenched the prison industrial complex at the expense of black communities and black political power everywhere, oversaw the murder of more people on death row during his presidency than any president in the history of our country, completely dissed and dismissed our sister Lani Guinier, who would have been an amazing Attorney General for our country and for our community, purely for the sake of political expediency, get to be donned the 'First Black President'? Is our loyalty so easily spawned because one acts like a 'pimp,' plays the saxophone and visits a few pulpits? I am absolutely amazed at the absence of critical black analysis about Clinton’s performance in office while Brother Barack has to be hyper-analyzed, criticized and have his thumbnails extricated for DNA samples before we’ll believe he’s one of 'us.'"
