<p>I felt the exact same way, Sandra, but in the reverse - I used to like West, untl he hooked up with Tavis. I use to disagree with West quite a bit, but I saw him as a naive bookworm who spent so much time consuming the thoughts of dead White men that he never learned to think for himself. I did think he was sincere, however. But after he allowed Tavis to make him a lapdog, I began to question his intellect.

<p>I felt the exact same way, Sandra, but in the reverse - I used to like West, untl he hooked up with Tavis. I use to disagree with West quite a bit, but I saw him as a naive bookworm who spent so much time consuming the thoughts of dead White men that he never learned to think for himself. I did think he was sincere, however. But after he allowed Tavis to make him a lapdog, I began to question his intellect. I also began to see him as a self-serving opportunist and publicity whore who was willing to both swallow his "principles" and drag the Black community under the bus in pursuit of his own agenda.</p>
<p>But I didn't speak out immediately because I hate dragging brothers through the mud, but some of them deserve it. It was probably flawed, self-serving turncoats just like Tavis and West who conspired to sell Black people into slavery in the first place. They probably told our young, Black forebears that "These nice White folks want to take you on a boat ride" - and that's exactly what they're telling young Black people today.</p>
<p>So these two need to go down - and go down in the most humiliating way possible - as an example for the next generation of turncoats who might consider selling out our people for personal gain.</p>

<p>I see what your saying and I believe everything, because I know for a fact that these two men are only about the dollar and only for themselves. I used like Tavis, but once he hook up with the other one, I started watching all their trips to different countries and around america, and knew that they were up to no good.</p>
