| Publisher Description: Sometimes it has become logical for individuals to attempt to deal with some of the issues that others would not deal with if they were faced with because of the situations being not politically correct or socially acceptable to do so from a mainstream western perspective. However, even if perceived as being the least bit controversial or simply not going to rock nobody's boat, it seems further fitting to somehow attempt to proceed with dealing with these scenarios when necessary. In this light, there are certain culture scenarios that may demand this kind of presence and response from a certain degree. I am specifically referring to a certain aspect within the black culture and experience that attempts to capture the integrity, accountable within how individuals may perhaps remain committed to the focus of liberation from as a truest sense as possible. In further attempting to keep the integrity and accountability together within as a divine way as possibly culturally, it becomes necessary to attempt to fine tune this aim within certain limitations necessary to keep the essence and reality relative to the black experience and culture. It seems only natural to further pursue this using a kind of language that is out of the box, but possibly a reflection of what fits this scenario in the truest sense is possibly necessary to meet these demands. The point of reference in this instance deals with asserting the recommended terms of "Uncle Tom" and "Sell Out." Rather than insisting on them being offensive, it may be further necessary to see how they apply to the issue at hand with individuals within the Black experience and culture holding the highest degree of integrity and accountability culturally when necessary. |
