Yeah, black people are too diffuse and heterogeneous in experience, socioeconomic status and culture now for some black nationalist agenda to really take root or be effective. There is no monolithic black experience anymore.
Dudes like this Brother Polight and his ilk would be better off focusing on just community activism and organization to tackle unemployment, education, housing discrimination, disparities in the criminal justice system, etc. rather than all this new age quasi-Nuwabian/5%er stuff about having super-powered melanin that contains dark matter and all that bullshyt, lol.
Exactly this is not 1964, I think people become so enamored with the idea of "Unity" that they don't want to acknowledge the heterogeneity. Problems can be fixed without there being some strong NOI NAACP type outfit at the forefront.
