![Black Lies Matter: Why Lies Matter to the Race Grievance Industry by [Taleeb Starkes, Gavin McInnes]](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/41I-ObNessL._SY346_.jpg)
Once again, Taleeb Starkes tells it like it is-- and if that means being "politically incorrect," well, too bad!!!
Starkes is one of the very few voices I know of who speak the truth-- even if the truth is ugly, even if the truth makes his "own people" look bad, even if the truth hurts.
The truth is that this country has sprouted a large, parasitic, and destructive "race grievance industry" that feeds upon racial divisiveness and hatred-- or the appearance thereof. A white cop shoots a black suspect (i.e., "victim")?-- Oh, my, that's RACISM!!! But what happens when a black cop shoots a white suspect, or when a black cop shoots a black suspect?
Oh... er... well... nothing!
Thousands upon thousands of blacks are killed every year, and guess what?-- The vast majority of them are killed by other blacks, NOT by whites. But... oh, well, that isn't news, because it can't possibly be regarded as "racism"-- so the news media ignore it.
But let ONE black man be shot by white cops, and that's instantly NEWS with a capital "N," because that enables everybody in the game, from Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson on down, to play the "race card," fling about accusations of "racism," and incite protests, demonstrations, and riots.
So what's with Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton? Well, they have a real vested interest in "racism," because both of them have been living off it for decades. Did you know that Jesse Jackson has never had a "real" job in his entire life? His entire career has consisted of playing "the race game" in one capacity or another. Al Sharpton did have a "real" job-- very briefly-- as the road manager for James Brown-- but otherwise, he too has made his living off playing "the race game." Oh, and by the way-- did you know that he's not even a real "reverend"? He was ordained by the Pentecostal Church at the ripe old age of TEN-- long before he could ever have attended a seminary or acquired a real religious education. "Reverend" Sharpton, ho-ho!!!
If racism and all traces of it vanished from our society today, both Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton would be standing in the unemployment line tomorrow, looking for whatever work they could get. Handing out fliers for the local SPCA, maybe.
And then there are the news media, which thrive on "controversy," whether real or imaginary. Let 10,000 students at a university hold a "unity conference" discussing how racial relations have improved over the last few decades, and the media will ignore it-- because unity and harmony don't get headlines or sell papers. Oh, but let 1,000 misfits and malcontents throw a "demonstration"-- or better yet, a riot-- over some alleged "injustice," and the nws media are all over it! Strife and controversy, after all, get headlines and sell papers and get online clicks!
Taleeb Starkes sets it all out in this book-- and although it's a very truthful book, it's also very depressing, because it demonstrates that nothing is going to change anytime soon. The forces that drive the "race grievance industry" are large and powerful, and they're not going to vanish overnight... or any time within the foreseeable future.
However, there is some "push-back," and although it is still small and weak-- and politically incorrect-- it is growing. More and more people are becoming fed up with the artificial divisiveness promoted by the "race grievance industry." More and more whites are becoming tired of being blamed for every bad thing that happens to black people-- and more and more blacks are becoming tired of being perpetually cast as "victims."
READ THIS BOOK!!!! Also, read Thomas Sowell's books, especially "Black Rednecks and White Liberals."
