Wow, impressive. You've really studied and researched the African-American demographic and now fully understand what they're all about and why they say what they say. Job well done.
The truth is smacking you right in the face and you don't even know it. Your post is typical of many white Americans who just want to grab an isolated incident in an attempt to justify depravity with supposed depravity.
An isolated black person calling Thomas, Rice, & Powell, "Uncle Tom's" does not constitute racism, and doesn't change the monumentally adversarial stacked deck that black America faces every single day.
I don't agree that Thomas, Rice, and Powell are "Uncle Tom's" but I also would provide space for some to express their opinion and also try to understand where they're coming from.
And I do understand where they're coming from.
