The title is interesting wouldn’t you say.
I saw this post over at Premptive Karama: One Black Man is OK, Two is Too Much?
An Obama-Powell ticket would be "too black" and American voters would never go for it. It blew my mind for several reasons. The first shock came in realizing that both men were black. Until the comment was made, that fact actually had not occurred to me. The second shock came in realizing that my friend not only noticed it, but also thought it was too great an obstacle for the men to overcome. The third shock came in thinking that perhaps racism was more intransigent than I realized.
This is a good example of the State of America in terms of what it thinks of Black people.
