Still unclear on what was so unacceptable about my request for clarification/rebuttal. I'm familiar with Cornel West and Toni Morrison, less so with Shelby Steele. Care to direct me towards specific references that address your point? The Invisible Man, while powerful, doesn't really speak to the President's executive policy. It was also written at a time when the threat to black Americans was much more immediate, pronounced and widespread.

Seriously man, I'm totally cool with an exchange of ideas. I just happen to find appeals to reason more convincing than personal attacks.
