Where does one even begin with this level of absurdity? This so-called professor of law posits the question “Can My Children Be Friends With White People?”, and unequivocally answers with “NO.” He uses lots of broad brush arguments with no basis in fact that I would assume he KNOWS would never hold up in court, and would be immediately thrown out as hearsay and slander. He is a “law” professor, right? Let’s look at some of the more egregious examples of his projectionism and hypocrisy.
“Donald Trump’s election has made it clear that I will teach my boys the lesson generations old, one that I for the most part nearly escaped.”
As you do later in your diatribe, you are associating Donald Trump and his supporters with racism against blacks, yet you provide not one scintilla of evidence that Donald Trump is or has done anything racist against blacks. I guess the approximately 8% of the black community who voted for Trump aren’t black enough for you? Perhaps they are “Uncle Toms?”
“The Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.’s famous dream of black and white children holding hands was a dream precisely because he realized that in Alabama, conditions of dominance made real friendship between white and black people impossible.”
Mr. Yankah is accusing an entire race of being racist, but in doing so is showing himself to be the bigoted racist. There are SOME white people who are racist, just as there are SOME black people who are racist. Mr. Yankah, why aren’t you embracing the words of the man whose coattails you hide behind by judging INDIVIDUALS by the content of their character rather than the color of their skin? Hypocrite.
“History has provided little reason for people of color to trust white people in this way, and these recent months have put in the starkest relief the contempt with which the country measures the value of racial minorities.”
No reason to trust whites? While blacks were at one time enslaved by whites (AND by blacks, AND by arab muslims), you were also freed by WHITES. You were given the right to vote by WHITES. The Civil Rights Act was passed by, you guessed it, WHITES. The VAST majority of welfare dollars going to the black community is also be collected overwhelmingly from… wait for it… WHITES. Sir, if you couldn’t trust whites, you would still be in chains working in cotton fields. If you can read this, thank a WHITE Republican.
“America is transfixed on the opioid epidemic among white Americans (who often get hooked after being overprescribed painkillers — while studies show that doctors underprescribe pain medication for African-Americans). But when black lives were struck by addiction, we cordoned off minority communities with the police and threw away an entire generation of black and Hispanic men.”
Notice what the disingenuous “professor” of law does here. He does the bait and switch. He tries to equate the opioid problem in the white community with the illicit trade and addiction problems of crack, heroin, and meth in the black community. Both are horrible, but they are NOT the same thing. One who is prescribed opioids by a doctor is generally taking them for pain associated with a medical procedure, at least initially. Those who take and become addicted to crack, meth, and/or heroine do it by CHOICE from the beginning.
“I will teach my boys to have profound doubts that friendship with white people is possible.”
You, sir, are a flaming racist, projecting your own faults onto people whom you have never met, and do not know. You are making a sweeping generalization that is PURELY based on race while pointing the finger of racism at others. Hypocrite.
“Only white people can cordon off Mr. Trump’s political meaning, ignore the “unpleasantness” from a position of safety.”
EXCUSE ME???? WHO has been more in danger since Trump was elected, and just as much during Barack Obama’s presidency??? You can’t continue the bullcrap lie that blacks are being targeted by white cops, or are being murdered by whites at some abnormally high rate. The ACTUAL crime statistics prove that to be entirely false. The ACTUAL crime statistics prove that blacks are MANY times more likely to be murdered by a BLACK person than by a white person. They also prove that a white person is more likely to be killed by a black person than a white person. But let’s go back to the “fear” thing. Are their roving bands of whites roaming the inner cities LITERALLY hunting black people? No. There ARE mobs of blacks beating up whites. How about things like the “knockout” “game?” Most perpetrators have been black attacking whites. If there is ANY group that should be afraid of another based on the evidence, it is whites who should be “suspicious” of blacks. But I don’t advocate the broad brush racism that you do. I advocate a situational suspicion instead of a race-based suspicion. If an angry mob of ANY color of people is moving toward you, you don’t wait around to see if they want to be friends. If someone is pointing a gun at you, it doesn’t matter what skin color they are. If someone is passing laws that are detrimental to your freedom and liberty, it doesn’t matter what their skin color happens to be, right?
“So, too, is his history of housing discrimination,…”
Again, you offer ZERO proof of your allegations. Just like the rest of the Alinsky-left, you are just slinging mud to see what sticks. You are repeating progressive media talking points with no citation, or research of your own. You’re supposed to be a freaking LAW professor. You of all people should know you don’t build a case on hearsay.
“…his casual conflation of Muslims with terrorists,…”
See above. He has NEVER said that all muslims are terrorists. He has POINTED OUT that many of the terrorist attacks in this country have been committed by MUSLIMS, most of whom were IMMIGRANTS or “REFUGEES” who were NEVER PROPERLY VETTED. Donald Trump has been attempting to put in place travel and immigration restrictions on the VERY SAME countries that BARACK OBAMA did. So, are you going to be intellectually honest and call Barack Obama an islamophobe and racist now? No, you’re too much of an intellectually weak coward to be that even handed.
“…his reducing Mexican-Americans to murderers and rapists.”
TRUMP. NEVER. SAID. THIS. You are quoting a viral MISQUOTATION of Donald Trump when he said that there are SOME bad people, rapists and murderers, coming across our border. And he is FACTUALLY, 100% CORRECT to say so. Does MS-13 ring a bell? Do you read the news AT ALL? There are dozens of stories every week of illegal aliens killing Americans, stealing identities, and all sorts of other crimes, ON TOP OF THEIR ORIGINAL CRIME OF COMING HERE ILLEGALLY. Oh, and you refer to a group of “Mexican-Americans.” I say you’re either American, or you’re whatever nationality the country you came from calls its citizens. If you become an American citizen, there can be no dual loyalty. One cannot serve two masters. There can be no hyphens.
“They bristle at the accusation that they supported racism, insisting they had to ignore Mr. Trump’s ugliness.”
So, if I as a white American say that I do not support or condone racism in any way, I am to be dismissed and labeled a racist despite the COMPLETE LACK OF EVIDENCE that would back any assertion of racism, but if YOU say you’re not a racist, despite an entire article of evidence which the New York Times has published for you, we’re supposed to just believe you? Again, Mr. Morally Superior Black Man, I point you back to the message of MLK, Jr. which you hide behind and PRETEND to embrace. He would disavow you in a heartbeat, you noisy cymbal and clanging gong.
“They protest: Have they ever said anything racist? Don’t they shovel the sidewalk of the new black neighbors? Surely, they say, politics — a single vote — does not mean we can’t be friends.”
Yes, you jackwagon. That’s EXACTLY what we say, and BELIEVE. I don’t care if my neighbor is black, white, latino, oriental, Indian, Native American, etc. I care that my neighbor ISN’T AN A**HOLE.
“My bi-ethnic wife, my most trusted friend, understands she is seen as a white woman, even though her brother and father are not. Among my dearest friends, the wedding party and children’s godparents variety, many are white.”
Funny how if a white person points out that they have black friends, or even a black spouse, people like YOU immediately say they have a “token black” friend to “hide their racism.” Do you see the irony here?
As a self-respecting PERSON, I would be ashamed to pen my name to such an ignorant, racist piece of drivel as this NYT article by Mr. Ekow N. Yankah. However, the left has no shame, and doesn’t seem to have a problem exposing their own ignorance, racism, hatred, and hypocrisy. In fact, they seem to be wearing them as badges of “honor.”

Obama’s Narcissistic Rage
Talk about the nuts running the asylum… People suffering this severely from serious psychosis need to be institutionalized, not be put in charge.

Narcissistic Rage in the White House
By James Lewis
The term “narcissistic rage” gets 26,000 citations in Google Scholar. It is a common feature of extreme or pathological narcissism.
While psychiatrists often say they can’t do long-distance diagnosis, it really isn’t that hard if you have a lot of information about a person and can watch how he operates from day to day. Intelligence agencies around the world have psychiatric staffs for exactly that purpose.
While most people are pretty hard to predict, extreme narcissists are comparatively simple. They constantly hunger for ego gratification (sounds like a certain always-in-the-spotlight president I know), they are immature (constantly lashing out at those who disagree with him), constantly need to demonstrate their own superiority (or perceived superiority), often need endless sexual conquests (like Bill Clinton), are manipulative (right again), constant liars (NAILED IT!), are completely cold about the human beings they harm (like John Edwards), and they deal with frustration by uncontrollable fits of rage. (the classic clinical description of “pathological narcissism” describes Barack Hussein Obama to a T)
I think that’s what we saw last week with the White House lashing out at Fox News.
According to the New York Times,
So Obama didn’t even keep this thing on background. He allowed himself to be quoted in his favorite rag, the New York Times. Dowd, Maddow, Herbert, and Rich did their part by going into attack-dog mode against conservatives. They know exactly what Obama needs and wants, and to keep in good stead with this White House, they feed that hungry ego with the most outrageous flattery and imitation.
It is a perfect symbiosis. Obama is easy to manipulate, and liberal commentators are used to demonize the opposition. They’ve all been raised on Rules for Radicals.
Obama’s thin skin is shared by his coterie. US News and World Report wrote:
Notice the need to have total obedience from the whole press. Fox News is a small part of the total media, but they’ve driven the Obees into a fit. Of course, every single president in American history has been targeted by the media, and generally much, much worse than Obama has. Take George W. Bush, for example. (But I forgot…Bush was Evil, and Obama is Good. Well, that explains it.)
Last week’s coordinated Obama attack on Fox News made no PR sense. Fox increased its viewership by 10%. Obama lost points in the polls; you can give the American people only so many demonstrations of the Chicago Way before they figure out you aren’t the Great Healer after all.
Obama is far and away the biggest and most naïve narcissist in living memory to occupy the White House. He hasn’t been smoothed and polished by years of deal-making in the Senate like LBJ. The outrage looks like it was just an uncontrollable expression of who Obama and his crew are. If we get more of this, Obama’s carefully buffed sheen will be permanently damaged for the saner 70% of the population. The other 30% will always fall for him anyway.
Pathological narcissism is a reflection of weakness, not strength. Tom Bevan at RealClearPolitics points out how much of it has been happening in less than a year of this administration, including months of a honeymoon period. Obama constantly uses wild and irresponsible accusations against his perceived enemies. Bevan writes:
When Obama runs into brick walls, he seems to reflexively go into a state of rage. Bill Clinton was the same way, and so was LBJ. But Clinton and LBJ had a lot of time to learn to moderate their own worst instincts. The best thing that ever happened to Bill Clinton as president was the election of the Gingrich Congress in 1994, which forced him to deal with reality. Jimmy Carter has been on a constant narcissistic revenge campaign since he lost to Ronald Reagan and never got a second term. It explains a lot about Jimmy’s amazing destructiveness against his favorite whipping boy, Israel.
The same thing will happen to Obama if and when he loses the election in 2012. Since narcissists in power keep people around them in a constant state of fear — everybody gets targeted and feels insecure — you can expect a ton of dirty tricks in elections to come. But then Democrats constantly use dirty tricks.
I fear two things with Obama. One is if the GOP fails to elect a House majority in 2010 to keep Obama within the bounds of sanity. A GOP majority is essential for the safety of the country and the world. But even if Obama is defeated in 2012, he will just turn into an angrier version of Al Gore and Jimmy Carter. He will haunt the political future of this country as long as he is alive, because that famished ego never gets enough. Malignant narcissism often gets worse over time. And on the Left and among blacks, Obama will still have love and adoration enough to keep him supplied. He is an easy target for flattery by the Saudis, even the Iranians — in fact, by all the real enemies we have.
So even if the voters throw out this very dangerous cult-like administration, you can expect Obama to be popping up in our politics for years to come. He will haunt the Democrats, which might be a good thing. But he will haunt the United States as well, even if he is defeated in 2012.
