Would you think this person prefers one race over another? Does that makes him a bigot?

From the age of ten onward, though, he desperately wants to be black. In his book, he writes, "I was trying to raise myself to be a black man in America, and beyond the given of my appearance, no one around me seemed to know exactly what that meant." The paucity of African-Americans around him means he has to learn to be black from the media: "TV, movies, the radio; those were places to start. Pop culture was color-coded, after all, an arcade of images from which you could cop a walk, a talk, a step, a style.


He also wrote that he found solace in nursing a pervasive sense of grievance and animosity against his mother’s race.


That hate hasn't gone away," he wrote, blaming "white people -- some cruel, some ignorant, sometimes a single face, sometimes just a faceless image of a system claiming power over our lives."


During college, this person disapproved of what he called other "half-breeds" who gravitated toward whites instead of blacks.

Reply:I think this person was surrounded by a race who tended to look down on him.
Reply:He also forgot to write about the church for 20 years in his book... It could have covered another chapter.

Reducing black identity to "victimhood" distorts the reality of true progress. For example, was Obama a victim of widespread racial oppression at the hand of "rich white people" before graduating from Columbia University, Harvard Law School magna *** laude, or after he acquired his estimated net worth of $1.3 million? How did "rich white people" keep Obama from succeeding? If Obama is the model of an oppressed black man, I want to be oppressed next! With my graduate school debt my net worth is literally negative $52,659.
Reply:No, I would think they were a product of their environment, a victim of a racist society and era.
