She Deserved It

Becky..."I AM" a black man. I'm not female.

My lament was regarding the general black community, not the state of one on one affairs.

My discourse comes as one who is a black father, a loving husband to my wife (I hope) and the father of sons.

I hardly see what your childish rant was really about, but I do think that if black women "sued" as you say, they still would not have the support of the black community per "respect for black women" as a component of our community. Race plays an intricate part in how we "devalue" our own children in the black community, as Cornel West has pointed out, just as we did during slavery time.

I don't think black women complain enough, actually, and that's the problem.
