What I Mean By The "Black Klan"
Just listen to the wit & wisdom of our old, dear friend Harry Belafonte:
I'm guessing the "King of Calypso" never saw that PSA.
Celebrity activist Harry Belafonte referred to prominent African-American officials in the Bush Administration as "black tyrants" at a weekend march, and he also compared the Administration to Adolf Hitler's Nazi Germany....Reminds me of an old anti-hate PSA from years ago. The jingle's closing lyrics went something like this:
Belafonte used a Hitler analogy when asked about what impact prominent blacks such as former Secretary of State Powell and current Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice had on the Bush administration's relations with minorities.
"Hitler had a lot of Jews high up in the hierarchy of the Third Reich. Color does not necessarily denote quality, content or value," Belafonte said in an exclusive interview with Cybercast News Service.
"[If] a black is a tyrant, he is first and foremost a tyrant, then he incidentally is black. Bush is a tyrant and if he gathers around him black tyrants, they all have to be treated as they are being treated," he added.
When asked specifically who was a "black tyrant" in the Bush Administration, Belafonte responded to this reporter, "You." When this reporter noted that he was a Caucasian and attempted to ask another question, Belafonte abruptly ended the interview by saying, "That's it."
'cause when you hate....who do you hurt the most?....Hate hurts you....hate hurts you.
I'm guessing the "King of Calypso" never saw that PSA.
