Race m Trumps Gender and Sexual Orientation

New York City Council Speaker woman Christine C. Quinn, has been meddling in the affairs of City Councilman Charles Barron's office. On May 30th, the City Council voted down a proposition to rename a portion of Gates Avenue after Abubadika Sony Carson. After the vote, Councilman Leroy G. Comrie Jr., a black Queens Democrat, who had voted against the renaming, was singled out by Viola Plumber who said that he would be "assassinated". The reference was a clear political statement in which Viola was saying that his political career was to be targetted (ie: his political career was dead). Whether or not Viola Plumber would be able to make good on that charge remains to be seen given the general anesthesia that black people are under these days.

Regardless to that though, the hand wringing and outright over reaction to Ms. Plumber's comments are part and parcel of white supremacist actions that even people who are also in so called "oppressed" communities ought to know better, fall into. Hence the title of the post.

Ms. Quinn who is a white female lesbian, by her own admission, has shown that at the end of the day, for all the posturing that white Gays and lesbians do regarding the parallels or equality of the Civil rights movement, that when it comes down to it, they are white and will ID as such and act in such "typical" white power ways when the opportunity arises. See I'm the vindictive type that would vote down any kind of recognition civil unions or marriages over this. You mean to tell me that I'm supposed to be down with men marrying men yet be OK with the denial of a community to recognize one of their heros? Fat chance. But back to the events.

Quinn "fired" Plumber after acting in typical cracker form in requiring Plumber to sign a letter promising to "behave". How out of her mind Quinn must be to think that any self respecting black person is going to shuck and jive and promise to be a "good nigger" on paper in this day and age. As councilman Barron stated in an interview on Like It Is with Gill Noble, Speaker Quinn doesn't even have the authority to fire Ms. Plumber.This was agreed to by a judge overseeing a case that has been filed. I expect Speaker Quinn to be on the losing end of this lawsuit (hopefully one that has the effect of bankrupting this woman).

Once again it seems that it is the black women who are standing up to house negroes and white people in power.
