But you'll come into a thread to complain about people complaining about them? Are you sure you don't care?

Listen, most posters on this board are students and in academia you HAVE to talk about how great black literature is or else you are an evil racist. Naturally this will make some people want to blow off steam for having to kowtow to this PC crap and 4chan is an excellent place to do just that. Now are you going to allow some people the right to voice their opinion that black literature maybe isn't so great and that it's annoying to have to pretend like it is or are you going to continue to be upset that people have opinions that don't fit nicely into your PC worldview?

There aren't any, and I'm not sure why.
I don't believe that all black people are completely incapable of writing something that's not identity politics related. Even if you think that black people are on average intellectually inferior to all other races, it's hard not to acknowledge the possibility that a smart black guy who loves to write about stuff other than American racial oppression exists.
I have to believe these hypothetical black authors are overlooked by publishing companies in favor of "black bodies and reparations" types.

I get that. I just thought it was funny that you can't really find too much discussion on this board when it comes to specific authors/questions, but you can find a lot more when it's about things like this. And so I made a joke, and probably exaggerated a bit, and then you replied as if I was trying to be a defender of black people against the evil racist anonymous anime imageboard when I was really making a joke about it. I'm sorry, do you forgive me?

All the great halfies were hardly black at all, they were so surrounded by european/anglo cultures that it sucked the afro out of them. I don't know any of the partially black authors in the 1700's 1800's (not many big ones in the first place) who made afrikanese stories. Pushkins like 1/8th black btw.

There are certainly blacks who are geniuses and have accomplished much- you don't have to look beyond Obama to see an example of someone who has manipulated and taken a nation of people for a ride. It is not worthwhile to examine them closely however, the opportunity cost is too great.
