In a commentary, Lloyd Marcus writes:
Booker T. Washington so succinctly and perfectly described black race profiteers, I am convinced he personally knew Al Sharpton. Thus, Sharpton must have a portrait of himself in his attic like Dorian Gray. The portrait collects Sharpton’s plethora of sins and keeps his appearance from reflecting his true age. I suspect this despicable race hustling conman has been peddling crap/hate for a very, very long time.
Washington really nailed Sharpton and the Black Lives (Lies) Matter movement in his following quote.
“There is another class of colored people who make a business of keeping the troubles, the wrongs, and the hardships of the Negro race before the public. Having learned that they are able to make a living out of their troubles, they have grown into the settled habit of advertising their wrongs – partly because they want sympathy and partly because it pays. Some of these people do not want the Negro to lose his grievances, because they do not want to lose their jobs.”
Can you believe Washington said that back in the late 1800s? Black “losers” (a little Trump lingo) were exploiting race and looking for a free ride. As the saying goes, there in nothing new under the sun.
