Death of the Auto-Coon: Intelligent Black People are Dangerous

Dangerous Negro, a company founded by black male graduates of some of the nation’s leading business schools (Harvard for one), stands against the notion that black men and black women are meant to be ignorant, club-hoppin, bottle-poppin, gun-tottin, shucking and jiving buffoons.  Our greatest destiny is not to relegate ourselves for the entertainment of others, but to instead seek a purpose that is worthy of the greatness and beauty of being black.

Dr. Boyce: A Quick and Powerful Example of the Psychological Power of Violent Hip-Hop Music

I received this email from a YBW member who’d read my article about BET’s acceleration and mass marketing of self-destructive imagery to the black community.  I think the story is a compelling example of how hip-hop can impact the minds of so many of our kids…I’ve personally seen this kind of thing myself – here is an excerpt of the man’s email, with names removed of course:

 

I remember my dear friend ******making an observation about an acquaintance from *******pistol whipping the mother of a friend and how ****, himself, had picked on him in middle school.  How the guy, who was only in his teens then, had only changed or "gotten bout-it" recently.  He literally alluded to the concept of the kid listening to a Master P album and trying to act it out, leading another friend at the table to directly quote C-Murder's line in No Limit Soldiers of "-transforming wimpy-ass niggas into killas".
