Few white citizens are acquainted with blacks other than those projected by the media and the so--called educational system, whichis nothing more than a system of rewards and punishments based upon one's ability to pledge loyalty oaths to Anglo culture.

Do you see these double standards these feminists have? They dream about John Wayne, but they're hard on us [Black men].
