UPDATE: Here's a Facebook group organizing the protest at the DNC gay fundraiser this Thursday. In a million years, I never thought I'd be quoting Malcolm X. But after seeing this on Pam Spaulding's blog, it's hard not to agree."Back during slavery, when Black people like me talked to the slaves, they didn't kill him, they sent some old house Negro along behind him to undo what he said."Pam Spaulding posted this video of Malcom X on her blog today, following the leaked news that the White House has suddenly decided to throw a big gay party for the A-listers who putatively run our movement. It's a chance for our leaders to get used by the White House, just by showing up, then get used again when they leave and tell the world how all the champagne and caviar proves that the President really does love us, in spite of that pesky incest and pedophilia thing, and those two gay service members a day he's still discharging, even though he doesn't have to. The biggest betrayal of all? Our leaders are going to the White House to celebrate the 40th anniversary of Stonewall. Irony is not lacking in this White House. But we got cake! (And a gay band in the parade!) Mike Signorile and Pam Spaulding weigh in today on the party, and on Jonathan Capehart's Washington Post article I linked to earlier. First Signorile on the party:This is pretty outrageous. In the midst of all the anger from LGBT people over the DOMA brief and the inadequate response -- so far -- by the Obama administration, gay lobbyists, executive directors and assorted others who comprise what is identified as the gay leadership apparently have been invited to a party at the White House thrown just for them. It's another photo-op in which everyone -- the president and the gays -- can look happy and like they're having fun, but more so, it's a way for the White House to wank off the gay leaders a bit while still not delivering. None of them should fall for it -- and that means they should not attend this eve From Collection: modurbanmed...

i think if malcom x was alive, we the black people would have gotten a better education service in our school system and think much more positive of yourselves.

Ayman al-Zawahri, le numéro 2 d’Al-Qaida, dans un message vidéo diffusé sur internet, a insulté Barack Obama, Condoleezza Rice et Colin Powell, les qualifiant de ‘house negroes’ en référence à un mot célèbre de Malcolm X. La traduction anglaise : You were born to a Muslim father, but you chose to stand in the ranks of the enemies of the Muslims, and pray the prayer of the Jews, although you claim to be Christian, in order to climb the rungs of leadership in America. And in you and in Colin Powell, Rice and your likes, the words of Malcolm X (may Allah have mercy on him) concerning ‘House Negroes’ are confirmed.
