‘Barack, I Didn’t Do It for This’: An Homage to Andrew Goodman
“Wright didn’t call for violence against whites or anyone else”
Heh. I dunno. If someone told me that a certain group of people, however defined, had been trying to commit genocide against -me- and my people by deliberately creating AIDS specifically tailored to kill me, deliberately introduced crack cocaine into my neighborhoods specifically to kill my children, that we deserved planes flying into the world trade center and killing thousands…
…at that point, you don’t really need to extol violence. If the person listening actually believes that odious crap, the urge to violence arises naturally from an instinct for self preservation. That’s the whole point.
