Black Public Intellectuals sustain me

November 13, 2006 By: The Good Doctor Category: black intellectuals

even in the worse ways.  part of me–the democratic theorist and actor–understands that part of my mission is to expand the ability of folks to speak their “special” truth, even when that “special” is “special” as in “special” needs.  we’ve got to make it so that people like my grandfather who didn’t have a high school degree the first can make sense of the world and argue for the common good against some knucklehead with a phd.

but the other part of me needs expertise.  i wish john ridley would stick to writing about mutants.
