Subject: black conservatives


Is America a hopelessly racist nation?


Do most white people want to see blacks fail?


Is it impossible for black people to be racists?


The angry rhetoric of mainstream black leadership in America today
suggests that the answer to each of these questions is "YES!"


Publishers Weekly calls unusual new book a "counterpoint to the liberal
and Afro-centric voices that too often subject black conservatives to ad
hominem attacks."


But black conservatives, an often-neglected voice in media presentations
of race in America, are fighting back and speaking for themselves and by
themselves.  They are declaring that the American dream for blacks is
alive and well, that most non-blacks are not racists, that the evil of
racism comes in all colors, and that racism is no excuse for
unacceptable behavior.


Black and Right: The Bold New Voice of Black Conservatives in America
(Praeger Publishers, edited by Stan Faryna, Brad Stetson, and Joseph G.
Conti) presents the opinions of both prominent national figures and
little-known, black conservative community activists.  These courageous
Americans are speaking out, undaunted by the ruthless epithets of "Uncle
Tom!" "Race-traitor!" and "Sell out!" that are constantly hurled at them
by black politicians, craven media mavens and professional "civil
rights" leaders.


Economist and syndicated columnist Dr. Walter Williams says of Black and
Right, "If one deliberately set out to sabotage black socio-economic
progress, he could not have found a more effective means than many of
the government policies started in the sixties and seventies.  Black and
Right is a long overdue antidote to the harmful conventional wisdom that
formed the justification for those policies."
