More From Caroline Knapp

I've never seen a sincere white man, not when it comes to helping black people. usually things like this are done by white people to benefit themselves. the white man's primary interest is not to elevate the thinking of black people, or to waken black people, or white people either. the white man is interested in the black man only to the extent that the black man is of use to him. the white man's interest is to make money, to exploit.

White people scare the crap out of me. i have never been attacked by a black person, never been evicted by a black person, never had my security deposit ripped off by a black landlord, never had a black landlord, never been pulled over by a black cop, never been sold a lemon by a black car salesman, never seen a black car salesman, never had a black person deny me a bank loan, never had a black person bury my movie, and i've never heard a black person say, 'we're going to eliminate ten thousand jobs here - have a nice day!'

My family doesn't do happy endings. we do sad endings or frustrating endings or no endings at all. we are hardwired to expect the next interruption or disappearance or broken promise.

The black man in north america was sickest of all politically. he let the white man divide him into such foolishness as considering himself a black 'democrat,' a black 'republican,' a black 'conservative,' or a black 'liberal' ...when a ten-million black vote bloc could be the deciding balance of power in american politics, because the white man's vote is almost always evenly divided.

I love everything black, because black is cool. when something crosses over, people are like, "oh, this is a crossover." first of all, there is no urban anymore. pop culture is black. white kids are dressing like black kids. it's all crossed the lines now. the way i understand it is, everything black is cool. when it crosses over to white, that means it's going from cool to uncool. that's what crossover is.

The left wants to transform america away from founding ideals, and this is it. and they know it. and they're doing everything they, and they've got the media helping them and so forth. i think one of the ways of exposing 'em is to ridicule 'em. i mean, laughter is the simplest way to humiliate somebody. laugh at them, it shrinks them.
