noble and powerful is code for black
you don't hear it of George Washington
its cliche sources :
noble savage
powerful black man
a safe black man, not like Thomas Sowell or Clarence Thomas or one of those conservatives
This one won't criticize the ``black leadership''
a culture of pets
By FRANCIS X. CLINES
Beginning next summer, the statue likeness of Frederick Douglass, noble and powerful as the man, will peer forth at the skyline that once so daunted him.
``I must give him his due. He has considerably cretinized me.'' Lautréamont
