Thread Name: Harry Belafonte on L.K. show. Amazing!
Subject: RE: Harry Belafonte on L.K. show. Amazing!
Mr. Belafonte qualifications for judging the actions of the US Secretary of State is... what? That thirty years ago he memorized a song in pidgin English?

That he has a opinion at all is closer related to the fact he has an asshole than a mind, because in the US, in order to have an opinion, it is only required that he have the former, not the latter.

He states that he was characterizing Gen. Powell's actions and not his race by comparing "Massa" and the "Big House". Blacks have long complained that the College Boards are culturally biased because of the word-comparison test questions, (even though Asians consistantly outscore both blacks and whites on the tests). After hearing Mr. Belafonte, they may have a point.
