field-negro

I read the blog "Field-negro " every day, I found his blog when Obama was running for president and wanted to know what the African Americans were saying about Obama.

This fellow comments on current events on the news and some times about Issues that effect the Negros in this country. Here is a quote on his blog from Malcolm X.

That house negro loved his master. But that field negro, remember, they were in the majority, and they hated their master. When the house caught on fire, he didn't try to put it out, that field negro prayed for a wind. For a breeze. When the master got sick, the field negro prayed that he die'd. If someone come to the field negro and said 'Let's separate, let's run.' He didn't say 'Where we going?' he said 'Any place is better than here'. We got field negros in America today. I'm a field negro. The masses are the field negros. When they see this mans house on fire, we don't hear these little negros talkin bout 'Our Government is in trouble. They say thee Government is in trouble.' Imagine a negro, "Our Government".~~Malcolm X~~

Click on the title of this post and read what the field-negro has to say. You will be glad you did.
He is for Obama in the white house but if Obama's crown starts to tarnish I bet the field-negro will tell us about that too!

Whether you were in the house or field...either would have been bad.
