His words are well documented, so why lie?
"A niggerized black person is a black person who is afraid and scared and intimidated when it comes to putting a spotlight on white supremacy and fighting against white supremacy," West explained. "So when many of us said we have to fight against racism, what were we told? 'No, he can't deal with racism because he has other issues, political calculations. He's the president of all America, not just black America.' We know he's president of all America but white supremacy is American as cherry pie.
You can't talk about wealth and inequality, you can't talk about education, you can't talk about massive unemployment and under employment and you can't talk about drones being dropped on people in other parts of the world without talking about white supremacy and its ways in which it operates. It doesn't have to be overt. The president is right about that.
But too many black people are niggerized. I would say the first black president has become the first niggerized black president."
Cornel West is not a Democrat and worked to elect Jill Stein. Fuck him and the horse he rode in on.
This forum is for people who support Democrats, not the likes of Cornel West. Enough with the Mau-mauing. Calling Barack and Michelle Obama "niggerized" is beyond the pale of acceptable discourse.
