Now....G.O.P Is The New Black??

I told you this New Black thing is getting out of control. Now, Black Conservatives are joining in on the fad. I know that we as a people aren't monolithic.We come from different backgrounds with different life experiences. But shouldn't we all defend the commercialization of our race as if it's the latest techno gadget that can be purchased at your nearest Apple store?
Does the Black Conservative wing of the GOP think this is going entice blacks to leave the Democratic party? They like to say the Democratic party take black voters for granted and that we blindly support the party line. In some ways I agree but in many ways I beg to differ. I believe many Blacks just recognize fakeness when they see it and this billboard is exactly that.......FAKE!
This is the same group that like to remind us Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.was a Republican. That is true, however this isn't Dr. King's Republican party. Matter of fact, during the early days of the Civil Rights movement, many Southern Whites formed the Dixiecrats, (a movement similar to today's Tea Party) led by Strom Thurmond because the Democrats were too soft on Segregation. Those Dixiecrats later formed the modern day GOP. So for all of you Black Conservatives reading this blog (and I know for a FACT that you do), PLEASE read up on your party's history before you start trying to pull a fast one on our people by buying billboards such as this one in Houston, Tx.

The GOP isn't the New Black! It's actually the Old White!!
