Another Example of The Afro-Saxon Mentality

Star Parker, the writer of the above linked article pontificates eloquently about her disdain for the Spike Lee documentary that clearly exposed the ineptitude of BushCo. Like most Afro-Saxons, she would rather wax nostagically about so-called traditional american values as opposed to seeing the facts as the vast majority of Americans clearly saw them.

The fact is that the Bush Administration sat on their rosy scented posteriors for five days and did nothing while Americans dehydrated, drowned, starved, died, and marinated into premium maggot feed in the hot Mississippi Delta sun. There is absolutely nothing one can say to dispute the above facts and no amount of obfuscation, victim blame game, or thinly veiled and/or glibly lame racist rhetoric will ever take away from those facts.

In her attempt to appease her neo-con base, Ms. Parker fails to recognize the harm done to the African Americans by a system that first enslaved us and then failed to deliver to us a modicum of the promise of freedom, liberty, and justice until just over 40 years ago.

Ms. Parker believes that somehow a people that have had their culture, familial rights, and human dignity systematically stripped from them for over 340 years is somehow prepared to totally extricate themselves from that condition after only 40 years of so called freedom.

As a comparison, it took europeans over 10,000 years after Africans had developed several noteworthy cultures and over 3,000 years after the African High Culture Civilizations were in existence to finally formulate a culture worthy of history's voice.

Just like the Europeans that engaged in the wholesale slaughter and enslavement of the African, the Afro-Saxon sees no harm in the destruction of the African American. This is why Ms. Parker can set at her keyboard and poo-poo a documentary that clearly went to great lengths to let those affected by Katrina tell their story.

It is Afro-Saxons like Ms. Parker that have true African-Centered Conservatives (like myself) constantly reaching for the maalox. It appears that she is neither a student of history, nor does she appear to have compassion for her fellow brothers and sisters. But then again, ignorance and indifference is another feature of the Afro-Saxon mindset.
