A Teachable Moment from Lionel McIntyre?


Stuff Black People Don't Like considers every post a teachable moment, just as Mein Obama decided the Beer Summit after the infamous Cooperating with the Police incident occurred at Harvard (or, the lack of cooperating with police).

A lot of people come to this website, unsure of what to make of what is written here (the initial efforts were to post daily, but to get in-depth material up an occasional day or two lapse of time will occur between posts).

Simply, SBPDL exists to elucidate upon the topics of the day that most people are of incapable of discussing for the simple fact that most people find Hate Facts so disagreeable.

Take for instance the incredibly intoxicating story of the altercation that took place at Columbia University, as a Black professor - Lionel McIntyre - found a conversation about "white privilage" so stimulating, he decided to sucker punch the white woman he was engaging in dialogue with (obviously on accident, for this fine, upstanding Black professor of architecture was intending to hit what he thought was Gazoo from The Flintstone's cartoon, when her face got in the way):

"A prominent Columbia architecture professor punched a female university employee in the face at a Harlem bar during a heated argument about race relations, cops said yesterday.

Police busted Lionel McIntyre, 59, for assault yesterday after his bruised victim, Camille Davis, filed charges.

McIntyre and Davis, who works as a production manager in the school's theater department, are both regulars at Toast, a popular university bar on Broadway and 125th Street, sources said.

The professor, who is black, had been engaged in a fiery discussion about "white privilege" with Davis, who is white, and another male regular, who is also white, Friday night at 10:30 when fists started flying, patrons said.

Camille Davis should know better than to engage a Black person in the sensitive subject of white privilege, for this is a tender and touchy subject for Black people to ponder since so many disingenuous white liberals have gone out of their way to ensure that all white people are the subject of widespread dispossession.

Hold it... what is white privilege?:
"In critical race theory, white privilege is a set of advantages that are believed to be enjoyed by white people beyond those commonly experienced by people of color in the same social, political, and economic spaces (nation, community, workplace, income, etc.). Theorists differentiate it from racism or prejudice because, they say, a person who may benefit from white privilege is not necessarily racist or prejudiced and may be unaware of having any privileges reserved only for whites."
People of color have every advantage white people have and many more. Were it a white man who punched a Black woman, this incident would be the ultimate manifestation of a hate crime.

So, you now have a - as Barack Obama would say - teachable moment emanating from New York. Black people are allowed to get angry and upset when insipid and completely baseless ideas such as white privilege are discussed, for regardless of the facts that a white person uses to debunk this conspiracy theory - a product of the The Man - all intellectual roads traveled will be guided by Hate Facts, and Black people find anything that runs counter to their worldview a pernicious attempt to return them to subjugation.

White people should never, ever enter into a cordial conversation with Black people that includes the topic of race, for you will instantly be labeled a racist for even pointing out the slightest difference in the races that can't be attributed to white racism.

SBPDL recommends not talking to Black people about race in person, unless you want the Chris Brown treatment, as our Black architecture friend from Columbia employed this tactic on Camille Davis, who substituted for Rihinna.

White privilege in the new world we live in? The only white privilege left is that of keeping your mouth shut, lest you be sucker punched by Black people. For, we do live in a Black world after all.

Since Obama knows all of the distinguished Black professors around the country - like Henry Gates Jr., - can we infer that Mr. McIntyre acted stupidly?

This 'intellectual' 'architect' is an excellent example to the disingenuous white liberals. To those that would say, "they're not all like that" I'd suggest you listen to the second of the above videos SBPDL has posted. The obviously negroid poster of the said video disagrees with your statement.

The lesson here is that even an 'underprivileged' 'professor' in New York City has the same tendencies of any common negroid rapist or murderer. He will continue to live his life as the 'victim' he perceives himself to be, battered White women or not.

Indeed, the 'evil' White man/woman needs to be put in his/her place. Perhaps, the best thing would be the extermination of White people from the face of the earth?

The black narrator of the 2nd video was such an articulate fellow while reading the New York Post article that I almost couldn't make it through the entire vid. He has a masterful way of mixing ebonics with semi-literate English. I did find it somewhat funny and ironic how he said the professor went "apeshit", although I believe the more appropriate term would be "had a chimpout".

Another great post but was somewhat upset about this nugget which seems slightly overkill in the strive to intertwine the two abjectly unrelated incidents. could we awknowledge the two incidents do exist on different planes of severity and possibly legitimacy? If the genuine goal here is an open and truthful dialogue, is this honestly the best path?

thanks for the post.

I hope he recieves the maximum punishment. Any black person with an ounce of sense knows, you leave white co-workers at work. The old adage "no politics or religion in the bar" should have also been practiced here. Why did he even think it would have been productive to talk about anything but sex with a chick after working hours? As educated as he was supposed to be he needs to learn the difference between desegregation and intergration. The bottom line if he would of just said goodbye to his white co-workers at work and hung out with black folks he probably wouldn't be going up on charges. What an idiot!

Our founding fathers did not follow your adage. The City Tavern [links below] located in Philadelphia was an integral location of the American Revolution. Of course, no negroid men were involved back then. That was the creation era. We are now in the destruction era, so negroid men are 'helpful'.

"Why did he even think it would have been productive to talk about anything but sex with a chick after working hours?"

Wow, you're a quite the intellectual powerhouse yourself, Black guy.

Interesting take on the Chris Brown- Rihanna comment. The person behind SBPDL loves pop culture. You can learn more about America in an issue of Entertainment Magazine then you can by reading an entire issue of the New York Times - for a month.

On a lighter note, check out this website to see another view of the Columbia Brawl for All:

Dave-

I bet you get chicks all the time with your intellectual discussions about this nations founders. Political discourse in local taverns made since during those times, but today it makes you a lame ass. Not only should he be charged and lose his job, I believe he should have been punched in the face for having that stupid conversation in a social place with a bunch of white co-workers. Thanks for the links. I'll be sure to bring it up at the next party I attend.

"Political discourse in local taverns ... makes you a lame ass"

Why does it make you a lame ass? Is ANY intellectual exchange lame? I have a gnawing feeling that this 'lame ass' ideology of yours is contagious and it's degrading the mental vigor of MY brothers.

I appreciate the segregated mentality that you exude. I just want to understand why you think discussing pertinent social issues in a social forum is lame. I think going to the bar just to get crunk and fornicate is lame.

It makes you a lame ass because it's a damn bar at 10:00pm. How about having a "serious" discussion about race and politics in a debate club. That's why most of us have real friends outside of work and school to have deep political discussions that will never turn violent because we know one another. So, to answer your question,intellectual exchanges aren't lame. I just find them annoying when after work you just want to relax and have a few drinks. Is that what getting crunk and fornicating means? As far as my "segregated Mentality" goes based on your posts I don't believe you find it all that objectionable.

Oh but to live in a world where when a man punches a woman in the heat of an argument on any subject the only comment is that it is wrong. Just plain wrong.
