Look, you can take any position that you want on anything. I am only responding because you have consistently oversimplified and misrepresented my views on this subject, and it seems that you are stubbornly bent on continuing such misrepresentations. Maybe you deliberately do not quote anyone on the subject because you are more interested in peddling defensive distortions instead of reasoning for the truth.
So what if Haile Selassie graces these pages? How does mentioning that Selassie is on this site make your views more credible? Marcus Garvey graces these pages too and I do not believe that any of them were faultless. Guess what, I do not have to believe they were faultless to have respect for their contributions. I think you are grasping at straws there.
You can believe what you want, as far as I am concerned. But in my view you do not understand racism with such a misguided understanding of colorism. And given your propensity for distorting views shared, you will not benefit from any extensive debate. So in brief, I was just putting on record that you are not giving a fair representation of views shared on this subject, and I hope if others wish to gauge my views on this subject they do not rely on your summations.
