I could answer this, ignore this post, or just ~*sigh*~ and realize that "education" is a very loose term. With that being said...rather than hype bull$"!+ websites outside of www.aalbc.com , I would like to suggest that you post your own thoughts. Although that may echo the diatribe that is spewed from the link above, I still want to hear what YOU think of Zora.

While I will not waste my time debating the validity of the opinions expressed, I may point out the lack objectivity.

I think it opened an interesting topic for debate--I think the case was overstated, and I think the blog was one sided--MALE sellouts, who, in my opinion--pound for pound have been worse for the race than any female (ONE Clarence Thomas cancels out everybody on that list--and that's just one--should have also been included.

And I am a male by the way.

And I relish the opportunity to label someone a sellout

I'm one of those crabs in a barrell negroes. What can I say?

By the way--we have adult males and females--how about CHILD sellouts?

LMAO @ Chris. If Black women know what's best for them they better sell the out. They better look around and figure out exactly what time it is!

I have gotten to the point that I EXPECT someone to sell out. Everybody has their price. Even me.

What I hate is when Negroes sell out for PEANUTS!
When they sell out cos deys sho' glad tuh be sellin' out. Hyuk! Hyuk! Hyuk!

That's what I don't like

(You cannot NAME a black woman who is as big an Uncle Tom as this guy.

I don't know what it is

It was probably Ward who put that blog together)

Like you'd have to tell people that somebody as "esteemed" as you think you are, would sell out for the right price, chrishayden. Who in their right mind would even approach a nonentity like you to endorse or support something, - even for peanuts.

(How dull mundane and unsuspecting you are.

Even the most insignificant nonentity can render a valuable bit of race treachery--in fact, someone as bad off as you say I am would have all the more reason to--)

In other words you would assassinate a noteworthy white person for the right price. That's not being a sell-out, that's being a mercenary. If you'd cut down a beloved black person for money then you'd be more of a fool than a sell-out. For that you would qualify.

Blacktown.net is a bunch of idiotic Black, British, fake dreadlock wearing white woman worshiping militants. Interesting how those bytch azz nikkas over in Britain fail to mention all of the sell-out Black men who have been more detrimental to the race and who's pages would be up in the millions.

Also notice how they love to misconscrue everything that Malcolm X and every other Black national hero has said.

GIMME A BREAK!!!

Irate...when I originally read the post. The opinions were not structured to build a foundation for theory. They were more interested in castagating prominant Blacks just for the sake of flaming.

Afterwards, I realized that this post reminded me that no matter what you do in the interest of what is best for you, someone will criticize you because they "would if they could have" done something different.
