House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries is under fire for an article he wrote and published in the Binghamton University school newspaper comparing conservative black people to slaves.<\/p>\n

This is sadly typical of the left.<\/p>\n

Black conservatives, as well as conservative women and gay people are often treated with open hostility by people on the left.<\/p>\n

FOX News<\/a> reports:<\/p>\n

Hakeem Jeffries compared Clarence Thomas, other Black conservatives to \u2018House Negroes\u2019 in college newspaper<\/strong><\/p>\n

House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, D-N.Y., likened Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas, former Secretary of State Colin Powell and other prominent Black conservatives to \u201cHouse Negroes\u201d in a student newspaper editorial about the \u201crise of the Black conservative.\u201d<\/p>\n

Jeffries\u2019 editorial was published during his time at Binghamton University in upstate New York in February 1992 and was titled \u201cThe Black Conservative Phenomenon.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThere has been a recent trend in the Black political arena which I believe threatens to sustain the oppression of the Black masses. The phenomenon I refer to is the rise of the Black conservative,\u201d Jeffries wrote in the article, which was first reported on by CNN. \u201cThe most notable indicator of this is the appointment of Justice Clarence Thomas to the United States Supreme Court.\u201d<\/p>\n

Pointing to differences between a \u201cField Negro\u201d and a \u201cHouse Negro\u201d at the time, Jeffries claimed the former \u201clabored from dusk \u2019till dawn\u201d and \u201chad nothing but contempt for his white master\u201d while the latter \u201cdidn\u2019t labor in the field, they were domestic servants\u201d and \u201csought to emulate the white master.\u201d\u2026<\/p>\n

\u201cPerhaps this is the problem with the black conservative politician of today,\u201d Jeffries wrote. \u201cTheir political agenda is not designed to contribute to the upliftment of their people. These right-wing opportunists espouse the political ideology of the power structure and, in return, they are elevated to positions historically reserved for whites.\u201d<\/p>\n

Republican Rep. Byron Donalds talked about this on the Hannity show and made a great point.<\/p>\n

I’m over the phony apologies. Let’s have an honest debate about Black conservatism vs. Black liberalism. Let’s have a real conversation about whose policies will unleash not just Black America but all of America.<\/p>\n

That’s the debate the people want.<\/p>\n

I’m ready, @hakeemjeffries<\/a>. pic.twitter.com\/QyTx2NJfS2<\/a><\/p>\n

\u2014 Byron Donalds (@ByronDonalds) April 13, 2023<\/a><\/p>\n\n

That would be a debate worth watching.<\/p>\n
