I know this is a thinly veiled /pol/ thread, but The Narrative Life of Frederick Douglass can be read cover to cover in an hour and it's a fantastic read. A first hand account of being a slave in the US by a very eloquent negro. People were genuinely shocked that a black person could write and orate like a white person.

>like 1/3 nigger raised in white society can at least read and write
>this proves niggers are better than whites!

just like halle berry proves niggers can be pretty and obongo proves they can be successful. its all literally proof of the opposite, niggers dont achieve anything unless they are part non-nigger. the only thing they can do is be a dancing clown and have whites throw money at them for fun so they show up in shitty music and shitty sports

I didn't even say that. White people thought niggers were incapable of learning how to read and write. It would be like teaching a pig sign language.

I have come to think that the guy who makes these threads is either some racist troll who doesn't care about 'black literature' or a saboteur who uses the thread to perpetuate racist stereotypes. There's usually zero discussion about the books posted--which are parodies of serious racial narratives--not even excerpts are dropped within as is the case with many of the rest of the threads on this board. It's a place reserved for people who are feeling sorry for themselves.

My big tiddy tall and thin wife (female) makes me creamy-creamy latte with sugar and marshmallows every morning and usually wakes me up for it with a blowjob.

I think the deciding faggot factor is not having a big tiddy wife to wake you up for your morning coffee with a blowjob.

I doubt that. Maybe some believed it, and some acted like it was the truth, but I doubt it was widely believed. I doubt that the first black person to be taught to read English was paraded around like some bizarre curiosity. Come see the literate negro! Never happened

S.R.O. by Robert Deane Pharr. aficionados of this board may particularly enjoy his constant references to 'refugees', members of a particular ethnicity, and how they seem to get housing benefits and access to money out of the blue and end up accumulating wealth rapidly despite being in the country for a fraction of the time of other peoples

Pimp by iceberg slim is pretty good. An interesting look into a whole other subculture, complete with its own terminology etc. I'm currently reading Invisible Man by Ellison and it's pretty good as well, IIRC he got some flack from other black writers for not being overtly political.

Thomas Sowell - Black Redneck White Liberal.

>"Black Rednecks and White Liberals"

The title essay states Sowell's thesis about the origins of the "black ghetto" culture.

Sowell argues that the black ghetto culture originates in the dysfunctional white southern redneck culture which was prominent in the antebellum South. That culture came, in turn, from the "cracker culture" of Welsh, Highland Scots, Ulster Scots, and border English or "North Britons," who emigrated from the more lawless border regions of Britain in the eighteenth century

Just as Shakespeare wrote in the tempest for the monster Caliban,

“You taught me language, and my profit on’t
Is I know how to curse.” (Act 1, Scene 2, 363-4)

So are the inbred scots and welsh responsible for Black American Culture

I have come to say
niggers are gay
niggers aren't nice
niggers need to be deported by ice

Dey season dey food
They make sounds like 'bix nood"
They get record deals from jews
While there crimes rarely get reported on the news

I hate niggers
