There are numerous black conservative writers of note, Thomas Sowell, Shelby Steele, Ken Blackwell, Jason Riley, etc. Those men are often the subjects of abuse from other blacks and whites who see their writing as traitorous to a viewpoint that that been the ideology of oppression and submission for generations. Now, added to this distinguished company can be added a black professor who must be admired for his courage as well as for his clear thinking and adherence to sometime uncomfortable facts which all too many black “leaders” ignore.

My first thought after reading this article was that I wanted to meet the author and offer him my hand for his bravery, clear thinking, and confidence in the future. His positive message is a real breath of fresh air! I hope you shall have the same feelings.
