Cornel West Refers To Obama As ‘First Niggerized President’
[su_publirb]
Professor Cornel West doesn’t think President Obama is doing enough to address white supremacy in America.
“Too many black people are niggerized,” West said Monday on CNN. “I would say the first black president has become the first niggerized black president.”
“A niggerized black person is a black person who is afraid and scared and intimidated when it comes to putting a spotlight on white supremacy and fighting against white supremacy,” West explained. “So when many of us said we have to fight against racism, what were we told? ‘No, he can’t deal with racism because he has other issues, political calculations. He’s the president of all America, not just black America.’ We know he’s president of all America but white supremacy is American as cherry pie.”

And Brother West continues to further prove how and why Michael Bennett Dyson’s piece on him was spot-on.

I gathered he’s been acting and saying things like this about President Obama because he didn’t get an invitation to the 1st Inauguration?
Wow!
I wonder what would he be saying now had he been invited?
Too much self importance can hurt sometimes.

what in the hell is wrong with him?
tracey marie June 22nd, 2015 at 7:24 pm
he is a niggerized black man who is jealous of President Obama. He always craves the spotlight, like a 2 Y.O.

He was left in the oven too long and it cooked his brain.

or not long enough. damn the mans an idiot.
The Original Just Me June 22nd, 2015 at 8:51 pm
I would call him an idiot but I don’t like being that mean and degrading the true idiots of this world.

>> damn the mans an idiot.
Cornel West is brilliant.
I’m not saying that as a fan. I’m not very fond of him.
But, I’m smart enough to recognize a very smart person.
whatthe46 June 22nd, 2015 at 9:26 pm
i just hate when smart people, truly smart people don’t think before they speak. he is a very deep speaker but this was outta line.

>> He was left in the oven too long
That’s the old racist joke about black people, right?
“God burned another one.”
whatthe46 June 22nd, 2015 at 9:03 pm
you know, when i was growing up, i didn’t hear to it referred that way. it was a way of saying they were stupid. “they” meaning anyone of any race.
AAASuperPatriot June 22nd, 2015 at 9:20 pm
I only heard that ‘in the oven too long” used by my bible belt friends about blacks. It was supposed to be funny.
I’m not accusing you of being a racist, BTW. But, there is a whole lot of racist junk in our language.
whatthe46 June 22nd, 2015 at 9:27 pm
well, i am black. born and raised in new orleans. and i really never heard it referred in the manner you spoke of. of course if i had, i wouldn’t have found it to be funny. i just never knew about it that way.

This, well what ever IT is, is allowed to run loose on the streets ????
AAASuperPatriot June 22nd, 2015 at 9:16 pm
Obama is running loose on the streets? What?!?!
Gadea June 22nd, 2015 at 8:24 pm
Cornel West is never one to mince words.
AAASuperPatriot June 22nd, 2015 at 9:14 pm
I get what he is saying. But I think he is wrong about Obama being niggerized.
Obama wasn’t bullied into being a centrist by the racists. Obama was always a centrist.
He ran as a centrist and governed as a centrist. West may not like it, but not all black people are liberals.
rg9rts June 23rd, 2015 at 8:01 am
Centrist= moderate republican
Scopedog June 23rd, 2015 at 11:09 am
No.
AAASuperPatriot June 22nd, 2015 at 8:56 pm
>> To Obama As ‘First Niggerized President
I don’t know. The GOP came pretty close with their treatment of Bill Clinton.

Bell Hooks is brilliant. I always go to hear her speak, she’s fascinating.

My advice to Cornel West: Keep your day job, because if you’re ever fired, you’ll never get a job in a legitimate academic college or university. Unless you could get a faux gig at Faux News for faux money.

Not the brighest bulb in the box …is he??
