yes, and this artificial idea that we have that somehow their color automatically conveys and demands membership in some vast brotherhood of non-whites is ridiculous. And it's patronizing, too.
Complaints range from 'they're 'betraying their race', or, they're 'house negroes'.
If they were white, nobody'd be talking about race, they'd be focusing solely on the issues that require the most attention... namely, the terrible job the whole administration has done and the harm that's been done to the US and the world.

It's ironically encouraging that there are ruthless Afro-American Republican corporate tyrants butchering the innards of the Federal Government.
I mean, that was unheard of forty years ago.

In a strangely related fashion, I suppose we should celebrate the realization of Dr. King's dream. People WILL be judged by their character and not the color of their skin, that's for sure.
