Consistently Aggravating The Abolitionist Examiner May/June 2004 by James A. Landrith, Jr.
Unlike certain "multiracial" organization leaders (ya'll know who you are), I am willing to work with individuals and organizations from any part of the political spectrum – independent-minded heathen libertarian though I be. I've participated in coalitions and lawsuits that have included a true diversity of political thought and philosophies ranging from People for the American Way to the Christian Coalition, from the American Civil Liberties Union to the Free Congress Foundation and from the National Black Caucus of State Legislators to the American Conservative Union.
However, It always strikes me as odd that when I criticize the NAACP for aggravated one-drop politics or the Nation of Islam for their call for reinstitution of anti-miscegenation laws in America or former Klansman Robert Byrd (D-WV) for his use of "racial" slurs and Representative Diane Watson (D-CA) for her ridiculous, disparaging comments about Ward Connerly's "interracial" marriage, I'm labeled as a right-wing nut.
Further, when I go after Trent Lott for his long and well-documented association with the Council of Conservative Citizens and Bob Jones University for banning "interracial" dating while seeking to participate in a government seizure of a share of state taxpayer monies from the very same people who weren't allowed to attend the school I get labeled a left-winger and a communist.
