There’s at all times that one Black one who is hellbent on making the remainder of us cringe with their antics.
Suppose Tim Scott, who did all the pieces in his energy to make Trump love him pondering it will get him the VP nod. Sadly for him, he was mistaken as a result of there was no approach Trump was placing a Black man on his presidential ticket, however good strive, you huge goofy.
There’s Herschel Walker, a strolling, speaking, bumbling idiot who bought caught in an online of lies so thick, his new title ought to be Lie-derMan.
After all, we are able to’t neglect Byron Donalds, who referred to as Trump “Daddy,” and I don’t even wish to know why he thinks it was OK to say that out loud in public, a lot much less on nationwide tv.
If “maintain my beer” and “Oh, we out right here shuckin’, jivin’, and actin’ a idiot?” have been a Black particular person, that Black particular person can be Eric Adams.
I simply wish to be aware that it took all the pieces in me to not make the “B” lowercase when referring to Eric Adams as Black, so please applaud my restraint and acknowledge that with the data that every one skinfolk ain’t our kinfolk, Eric Adams is certainly lowercase b black.
Anyway, the mayor New Yorkers purchased on Temu and have been having hassle returning hosted a Black Historical past Month occasion at Gracie Mansion Tuesday.
Throughout the occasion, the person who refuses to give up his job (although everybody says he ought to) likened himself to Jesus Christ, referred to the state of affairs he’s in as a biblical second, and referred to as those that are calling for him to step down “negroes.”
From the Every day Information:
“This can be a biblical second,” Adams stated throughout the night occasion.
“When Jesus was on the cross, he stated, ‘God forgive them for they know not what they do.’ All these negroes who’re asking me to step down, God forgive them.”
Oh no, child. What’s you doin’?
The backlash was fast and swift.
Harlem pastor and civil rights chief Rev. Johnnie Inexperienced informed the Every day Information that the feedback have been offensive.
“That’s horrible, completely horrible for him to match himself to Jesus Christ. Nothing is extra sacrilegious than what he has executed. I’m appalled by it,” Inexperienced stated.
“I feel all religious leaders on this city are appalled by it. It simply exhibits you the instances through which we stay how dangerously depraved individuals may be… He’s no savior, he’s no Christ, he’s no sacrificial lamb.”
Come by, Rev. Inexperienced!
Inexperienced additionally famous that Adams’ utilization of the phrase “negro” exhibits how out of contact he’s with the Black neighborhood, and, child, the reality simply retains on truthing.

This brings us to Wednesday morning. Adams took his minstrel present on the highway and appeared on Good Day New York the place host Curt Menefee “turned that wok on and slowly slid that man down within the grease,” as comic Roy Woods Jr. put it on X, previously Twitter.
Noting that Adams is about to start one other mayoral marketing campaign, Menefee stated, “I wish to get again to an occasion you had on the Gracie Mansion final evening the place you spoke about Black Historical past Month, and in it, you stated ‘all these negroes who’re asking me to step down, God forgive them. Are you implying that in case you are Black it’s a must to help you?”
“Uh, no, under no circumstances,” Adams stammered. “I’m asking for all New Yorkers to help me.”
Not about to let him weasel his approach out of accountability for his statements, Menefee utilized just a little extra strain.
Slicing Adams off, he requested, “So who’re you particularly speaking to while you say negroes?”
Sure, Eric Adams. Please inform us whomst you might be referring to while you reached again into the Jim Crow period, grabbed that phrase, and let it come out of your mouth so freely in blended firm.
Adams started rambling once more. “Properly, who has requested me to step down?”
He stated a bunch of different stuff too, however I’m not writing all that down right here as a result of it was inconsequential and nonetheless didn’t reply the very direct query Menefee requested him.

Menefee, who’s clearly as petty as me and Stephen A. Crockett Jr. mixed, pressed him once more.
“What set you from?!” he requested.
Oops. I imply he requested, “So that you’re saying all New Yorkers are negroes?”
Adams rambled on some extra and continued to not reply the query he was being requested.
At this level, it was getting comical, and I wish to be aware that Menefee’s cohost, Rosanna Scotto, was doing her best to keep up a impartial face and let these Black males hash out their Black individuals enterprise with out her interference, however I do know deep down inside she wished to scream with laughter.
I’ve been screening with laughter all the time I’ve been rewatching this video so I might recap it for y’all.
“So anyone who’s Black who calls so that you can step down wants assist from God,” Menefee quipped, and with out permitting Adams to reply, he continued making use of strain.
“I’m specializing in this,” Menefee stated, “as a result of your utilization of the phrase ‘negro’ has come up repeatedly during the last couple of weeks, and I feel some individuals even have a problem with that time period. So clarify who you’re speaking to while you use that time period particularly.”
If “I’ll wait” was an individual, it will be Curt Menefee at that actual second. He was not taking part in round with Adams, and actually, none of us ought to let Eric Adams off the hook for talking the white man’s English in blended firm and referring to individuals as “negroes.”
Temu Stephen from Django continued to deflect and try and derail the dialog, and it was simply additional proof that someplace down in his soul, even he knew he was flawed.
I’m glad Curt Menefee saved his foot on the neck of Eric Adams. Eric Adams deserved each little bit of that flame-broiling, and I’m particularly glad he bought it from one other Black man.
There isn’t any acceptable motive or excuse for Adams to be out right here calling individuals “negroes.” His proximity and capitulation to Trump makes it much more egregious.
He not like us.
