You are 100% correct. I re-read the whole exchange and realized that I am being unfair in my delivery. The content, I stand by but, yeah, what I wrote above does come across as a little arrogant. Maybe I'm just a little sensitive to the topic and I am so used to "certain" people getting their back up in convos about race that I now am automatically prepared for battle everytime. Its ironic, because on the flipside I spend so much time in my life trying to convince coloured folks that working class solidarity with whites (on our own terms) is the only direction we can take towards building a better society. Thanks for checkin' me on that.
To Dolphin, no ill will was intended in my post. At the same time, however, I do understand why Kweli feels this way.
