“I have gone on the streets
and talked to people at random here in the black community, and they
all ask me the same question: ‘Why are our politicians and leaders
letting this happen?’ ” What’s got Anderson—motto: “If You Ain’t Mad,
You Ain’t Payin’ Attention”—so worked up isn’t the Jena Six or nooses
on Columbia University doorknobs; it’s the illegal immigrants who
allegedly murdered three Newark college students last August. And when
he excoriates politicians for “letting this happen,” he’s directing his
fire at Congressional Black Caucus members who support open borders and
amnesty for illegal aliens. “Massive illegal immigration has been
devastating to my community,” Anderson, a former auto mechanic and
longtime South Central Los Angeles resident, tells listeners. “Black
Americans are hit the hardest.”
Though blacks have long worried that the country’s growing foreign-born
population, especially its swelling rolls of illegal immigrants, harmed
their economic prospects, they have also followed their political
leadership in backing liberal immigration policies. Now, however, as
new waves of immigration inundate historically African-American
neighborhoods, black opinion is hardening against the influx. “We will
not lay down and take this any longer,” says Anderson. If he’s right,
it could upend the political calculus on immigration.

"
... isn't the Jena Six or nooses on Columbia University
doorknobs ... ." Why would either of these
contrivances make blacks mad? That aside, there may be racism in
the country, but dammit we have done more to address it than any
civilization in history. From my vantage point, near 100% of
today's racial incitements come via blacks themselves, guilt ridden or
Machiavellian liberals, and Hispanic comedians. In fact, if a
virus killed every white liberal tonight, the healing would begin in
the morning.
