In recent years Negroes made two important discoveries about
ites. First they disccovered white liberal guilt, and how easily
can be exploited to Negro advantage.
Secondly, as Wolfe writes, “Black people began to realize
the first time that the white man . . . had a deep dark Tarzan
bo jungle voodoo fear of the black man’s masculinity. This
s a revelation. For 200 years . . . mothers had been raising
eir sons to be meek, to be mild, to check their manhood at the

incurring the wrath of the Man. The Man w.as the white man.
