Vision Circle

I'll bite.

I'm going to guess that this is an income spread drawn from a group of black republicans. I'll take it one step further and guess that these are black republicans drawn from church communities, (as the overwhelming majority of such self-identified folk are likely to be at this juncture)

It says to me that them what's got and them what's not - neither one cotton too well to that deep fried southern dumpling floating in the republican punchbowl. Afroserf and afrostocrat alike just don't cotton to the American dream republican style.

It says, moreover, (mind you I'm eyebrow deep into a rorschach inkblot reading here - and would appreciate not being ridiculed if I'm waaaay off base) that a middle striver class of black folk are most inclined to put up with the unsettling taints under the big tent.

As I'm always interested in deciphering what the liminal bands of human awareness have discerned, the question my interpretation of this graphic begs is, what do poor and rich black folks alike smell and turn their noses up at - that the middle class folk are apparently choosing to ignore?

I'm assuming this is for all of Black America, just not a Dem. or Repub. profile.

Doing right? The same thing people in that group, overall, are probably doing. Political orientation? If Black, then mostly Democrat. About Black America? What I've been saying for awhile. Things look good in the dark clouds. Reaction? Not surprised. Does it matter? Yes. Why? Because the truth needs to be seen.

For political orientation? Jewish people are said to be relatively doing better than the American average. They vote overwhelmingly Democrat. What does that mean?

And the answer is?

13,000 Black MBAs. My kinda people.
