Reply #6: What a fool. Keeping things on the "down low" is deleterious on the community

[Exultant Democracy]

The black side of my family is very socially conservative and it upsets me almost as much as the politically Conservative part of the white side of our family.

I blame the church which baring a few revolutionaries has never really fought for the best interest of the black community. The majority of black religious leaders did not join the SCLC despite what they would want you to believe. No while children were marching they were standing at their pews telling their flocks not to push the white people to far and that they would be rewarded in heaven for being meek.
