From what little that I've read of Dr. Clarke's speeches and writings, he always got to the point. You can't argue with his thorough scholarship. His analysis of Black Conservatives is concise. He's right to criticize multiculturalism because it's a joke. And even when you don't know where he's going with a point, he seems to bring it home.

What you have in this new charge of Black and Semitism against Blacks is the most pathetic of all tragedies, a scapegoat looking for a scapegoat. Because of Black Americans' reading or misreading of the Bible, we have always had a sentimental attachment to Jewish people and, to a large extent, most of us still do. During slavery, we wanted to attach ourselves to a people who had escaped from bondage. So, the Exodus story in the Bible became more real to us than to the Jewish people. Right now, in a large number of Black Baptist churches, you can get a large number of the congregation to shed real tears of sympathy over the three Hebrew boys in the fiery furnace. Most of them dare not question whether this is folklore or fact.

That is really what's at the heart of the whole "controversy". I've read
African World Revolution, what else would you suggest?
