My 18,000 word thesis earned me a Masters of Biblical Studies degree (a wholistic plan to empower low-income black America). I'm here to network for publication and to seek out like-minded African Americans (curtis.hervey@yahoo.com). As a Distinguished Graduate of OCS, I seek to apply battle-tested military principles to solving black pathology by issuing a national warning order. I'm an iconoclast, my doctrine is Washingtonian (as in Booker T.) and my role is that of Socratic Gadfly.
Of course when I speak of "Washingtonian doctrine" and "Douglassonian doctrine", I am speaking of the two black Founding Fathers Booker T. Washington and Frederick Douglass.
My apologies to everyone who though I was referring to George Washington or Stephen A. Douglass who debated Abraham Lincoln.
Douglassonian doctrine is based on agitation and his maxim of "power never concedes without demand"
Washingtonian doctrine is based on self-sufficiency and industry and his maxim of "Throw your bucket down where you are."
Polar schools of thought. Black Americans currently subscribe to the school of Douglass as the civil rights movement was about agitation. Black politics is grievance-based from a plartform of victimization.
