Good Boy the Meeting closed!..Now yall get to work

Who is the Real Uncle Tom?

Any black Republican,
will find at some point in his life, the term Uncle Tom thrown at him.

The dictionary defines Uncle Tom is a pejorative term for a black person who is obsequiously servile to white authority; eager to win the approval of white people.Or one who rubber stamps "white supremacist" notions about the inherent superiority of whites and its corollary, the inherent inferiority of blacks. It amazes me when I see black liberals throwing such a word around. The world does not define who I am. Nor does it define many of my friends, who are black and Republican. The black Republican, is rebelling against white ideas, they just happen to be liberal. Leftist White Authority, is also an authority. You see it when black democrats will not attack white liberals. There may be people who fit this description, but I have found that they tend to be more liberal minded. They are eager to win the approval of white liberals through the arts, music, and academia.They are not the poor black, but the overly educated African American. This African American elite feels he must represent the masses to the white liberal. He must get grants to defend black poverty. He must labor nights in the fields of the university, to make white liberals clap, and approve. He makes arguments as to why blacks really need white liberal help. Why blacks can not find work, while immigrants can. The modern day Uncle Tom, is not found in a field, he is more apt to be at an Anti American Rally!



A history if the Word Uncle Tom..

Uncle Tom is a pejorative term for a black person who is obsequiously servile to white authority; eager to win the approval of white people; or, who rubber stamps white supremacist notions about the inherent superiority of whites and its corollary, the inherent inferiority of blacks. "Uncle Toms" are perceived to take the side of whites when there is an injustice against blacks. The term Uncle Tom comes from the title character of white author Harriet Beecher Stowe's novel Uncle Tom's Cabin.

The books Uncle Tom demonstrates an honorable grace and dignity, his story of suffering being similar to that of Job, from the Bible. Tom is pitying of Simon Legree, for Legree's fearful enslavement to his wickedness; despite his wealth, he is poor in spirit by comparison to faithful, old Tom. Most blacks, however, object to Tom's passivity, willing subservience and complete lack of outrage at his enslavement, and to Stowe's paternalism in the portrayal of the loyal, patient, long-suffering Tom. They view the author's prose as patronizing, condescending, stereotypical, and emasculating. The depiction of Tom in the popular stage version of the novel also was greatly influential in popular perception of Tom as a servile, white-haired, shuffling slave who was grateful to his master.

Essentially, the accusation of being an Uncle Tom or Tomming questions the accused person's integrity, or courage, or both. The implication is that the person is demeaning him- or herself or acting against the interests of blacks, generally, for their own personal benefit, out of fear, or simply because they have been brainwashed to be complicit in their own oppression. A "Tom" can be someone judged to be insufficiently outraged by, or inadequately engaged in opposition against, a status quo of white privilege and black disadvantage. Sometimes, the term is applied to individuals who simply are perceived, rightly or wrongly, as being needlessly accommodating of whites.

During slavery, Tomming could be a cunning subterfuge. White masters often gave well-liked and trusted slaves coveted, less physically demanding duties to perform. "Faithful" bondsmen and women also tended to be watched less closely, allowing them opportunities to escape to freedom or engage in clandestine acts of defiance. A Tomming fieldhand who had been bullwhipped might set a field afire or destroy farm implements. An outwardly compliant cook whose husband or children had been sold away from her might burn down the cookhouse or exact a slow and agonizing death from her master by poisoning his food with finely ground glass or other harmful substances.

Slaves also often calculatingly pandered to white supremacist assumptions about blacks. The self-referential use of the word "nigger" to their own advantage was a typical, self-deprecatory artifice of Tomming. Implicit in taking on such a label was the unspoken reminder to whites that a presumed inherently morally or intellectually inferior person or subhuman could not reasonably be held responsible for work performed incorrectly, an "accidental" fire in the smokehouse, or any other similar occurrence. Tomming effectively could enable someone to dodge personal responsibility for sometimes blatant insubordination or perceived incompetence and allow them to escape completely the wrath of an overseer or master. Acting in a dimwitted manner was another effective device, which also helped put whites at ease. Stepin Fetchit, the 1940's on-screen persona of comedic actor Lincoln Perry, was the quintessential Uncle Tom. Whites often assumed that a black person who thought of himself as a "nigger," who apparently willingly accepted his subordinate status, or who was simple-minded, posed no threat to white authority.

This practice of masking defiance or rage with acquiescence, civility and even obtuseness continues today. As in years past, Tomming can be a means of appropriating and preserving a degree of private autonomy in the face of social prejudice and institutionalized racism, an act of subversion -- or even an over-the-top, satirical or mocking response to race prejudice.

Sometimes, women who Tom are called Aunt Jemima after the popular pancake mix that long depicted a kerchief-headed family cook of that name.

A roughly equivalent term is Oreo, from the chocolate sandwich cookie with white filling (implying that one is black on the outside but white on the inside). Coconut and Banana have the same meaning.

A common antonym for Tomming is Mau-Mauing, a word derived from the violent, protonationalist Kikuyu uprising in British colonial Kenya.

Michelle Malkin..AngloPhile or AmericanPhile

About a year ago on c-span,I saw an interview, with Asian American Columnist Michelle Malkin. An caller angrily called her an AngloPhile.This word is more of an attractive academic term of slur, then say "uncle tom". The word is used to attack people of color who love there new adopted homes. This would include any minority who supports democracy, american military strength, and capitalism. And God forbid closing the borders. I found this definition of AngloPhile on wikpedia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anglophile. I think Michelle and many others would not fit into the category. I would however put Madonna and Tina Tuner and some other notable libs in. The ones who leave America for a day and began speaking with British or french accents. These are things which red America shudders at.
An anglophile is considered to be a non-English person who is extremely fond of all things English. American Anglophiles will often spell words with a British distinction, such as writing the word color as colour, or flavor as flavour.
The term is also used as a slur for people (especially in New England, New York, and elsewhere) who base their modes of business and/or political inclinations on a cultural sphere that is tied to its social equivalent in England. Although, this has been associated with anti-semitism, it is slightly more true to say that they are ethnocentrically inclined against anyone who is not English, German, or Dutch. The actual truth of it all, however, is they are simply more inclined to favor certain people for their surnames, family relations, and other ties (which are usually but not exclusively either English, German, or Dutch).

Phillis Wheatley..and American Poet

I was 15 and my english teacher gave me the writings of Phillis Wheatley. I read them and read them again. Phillis's poetry gave me a glimpse into the sharp, clear thinking of African American during here time. The images and sterotypes of blacks stand in total contrast to this women. She was an excellent writer,George Washington himself fell in love with her poetry. In 1776, Phillis wrote a poem and a letter to Washington, who praised her efforts and invited her to visit.On contrats Jefferson could not even spell her name right, and showed more disdain for Phillis’ writing; when in his Notes on the State of Virginia, he remarked, "Religion indeed has produced a Phyllis Whately, but it could not produce a poet. In may of 1968 one of the poem's by Phillis Wheatley brought $68,500 at Christie's auction, Rockefeller Center in New York. It had been estimated to bring between $18,000 and $25,000. The poem is titled "Ocean"; its seventy lines were written on three pages that had yellowed with time. It is thought to be the only copy.
One poem which I have read alot, because it seem's very non pc, and almost worshipping of white sophistication. I am not sure what Phylis may have thought.But in any way it gave me a glimpse of her heart and mind at the time.

On being brought from A F R I C A to
A M E R I CA.

'T WAS mercy brought me from my Pagan land,
Taught my benighted soul to understand
That there's a God, that there's a Saviour too:
Once I redemption neither sought nor knew,
Some view our sable race with scornful eye,
"Their colour is a diabolic die."
Remember, Christians, Negroes, black as Cain,
May be refin'd, and join th' angelic train
