Blacks have garage sale. Libs sue.?

What a mess. The black college Fisk University is broke. They're trying to sell an art collection donated to the school by artist Georgia O'Keefe, and the arts establishment is up in arms. They say that O'Keefe, another liberal friend to blacks, gave the paintings to the black college, but said they must be kept together and not sold to raise money for the college.

Add to this mess of black vs. lib is the offer of $30 million from the widow of Walmart founder Sam Walston. Libs are crying that art is more important than the education of blacks. Blacks are crying they need to liquidate the artistic heritage of America to educate blacks who can't compete in the regular colleges, and conservatives are saying let the free market rule.

Why do Blacks side consistently with Liberals again?

    It doesn't sound as if blacks were siding with libs on this issue, and if the college needs money they should sell the paintings. Loathe O'Keefe anyway. The balcks want to sell the paintings the libs want them to keep the paintings; I call that opposing sides. And the libs have no grounds to sue; the blacks own the paintings and if they need the money, they should sell them. No loss and lots to gain.

    for one i will correct your ignorance by saying that just because a black person goes to a predominately black college does not mean that they can't compete in regular colleges.
