Black Lives Don't Matter
Despite the Pieties of both the Left and Right
This piece has just been published in the current (August) issue of The New English Review. I decided to publish it in an established journal because it contains snippets that I had first tried out in various pieces here on Substack. I did not want to be redundant here, but I did want to bring together some points in a different configuation and present it using this somewhat provocative approach and title.
It tries to go beyond the platitudes and parlor intellectuals of left and right and make people think "outside the box" about the coup of the last 3+ years.
I am grateful to readers here on Substack for their comments on earlier pieces, which did a lot to help me formulate this one. Please do go to the article at NER, “like” it if you are inclined, and even better, leave a comment to help get a discussion going.

Great article. Interesting point at the end, that if black men got their act together they would likely have both political parties on their knees. I think that would be especially true if they embraced an old style patriotism and reverence for the US founding fathers and the documents they wrote. Black men certainly have the power to bury the Ibram X. Kendi's who are trying to convince them to tear America down because some of their ancestors were suffered wrong.
