Even in a forum such as this, questions should at least be valid. On what evidence does Rhonda base her question? All black men do not hate all black women. Further, if Rhonda is raising a black male child with that premise, how does she expect him to turn out? As for the response from Paul, huh? Co-conspirators with white men? Where is the evidence of this? Better yet, where are the benefits of such an alliance? Although you do have many black women in the workforce, the jobs they have were never theirs to give or take. As a whole, they are still at the bottom of the pay scale, even below the white women Paul finds so much in common with. How empowering is it when your boss knows that you are a single parent and probably won’t be going anywhere, and therefore gives you a 3 percent raise vs. the 10 percent your white counterpart may get? If office environments seem like the plantation, it’s because black women are in the same position of having no protection from their men against ‘the white man’ (and his woman). Many black women must ‘wear the mask’ to make a living and provide food for the children they have by ‘their own men’ who are not taking proper responsibility. Most black women who work on ‘plantations’ are not doing so by choice. They don’t have the same options as many of the white women who you, Paul, have so much in common with. In spite of this, black women as a whole continue to love black men. Don’t perpetuate a lie that we don’t. We just want our men to take their destiny into their own hands and understand that God (not the white man) has given them what they need to take care of themselves and their women.
