Conservatism regarding Black men must be more than reflexive rushing to blame everyday Black men in encounters with White people and police. It’s not Brothers fault all the time. When one is seen as part of a negative collective, and not an individual, ones conduct and character are easily mischaracterized.
Conversely, Liberalism as applied to Black men must mean more than knee jerk defenses of Black criminals or serial screw ups. Despite inequality, some Black men freely choose to harm others or under-perform, and no amount of White guilt changes this fact. We too have freedom of choice, as the often ignored achievements of productive Brothers attest daily
Neither toxic tendency serves the best interests of Black men nor these competing ideologies as we peel back limitless layers of race in the 21st Century.
