BUMPED, with the link fixed.

My two well-received posts this summer on Black Conservatism have been been reposted on Racialicious (here and here). In honor of the occasion, I have put up some excerpts from a larger piece I’ve been working on explaining how Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas fits in with my theory. It’s long, but I think it’s worthwhile if you find Justice Thomas interesting (or inexplicably infuriating).
