Thomas Sowell's Redneck Culture Meme Won't Go Away


Here http://culturalleadership.blogspot.com/2005/08/black-rednecks-and-white-liberals.html is someone else taken in by Thomas Sowell's "Redneck Culture is What is Wrong with Black People" argument. This guy apparently hates folks with Scots-Irish heritage. Perhaps one of my ancestors stole his ancestor's sheep, and the family carries a grudge. He also appears to dislike black people other than Thomas Sowell. He denigrates two ethnicities at once by characterizing "redneck culture" as lazy, violent and ignorant and then stating that black people have adopted this culture.

This kind of bigotry is saddening especially on a Christian blog.
