Vince and Dean Robinson-Ain't I Black My Bro

Note: I did some editing of this article after listening to Dean podcast on Oct. 17.

Let's see Dean Robinson called his brother an African-American a racist. I think that is cute and it plays to raced white folks. You see, Dean's brother, is Vince Robinson, editor of INK, a "black newspaper". Robinson, the editor was the Fort Wayne Allen County NAACP secretary until he was appointed public information officer for Fort Wayne's Mayor Tom Henry.

So, Vince had to step down from his NAACP post, as he accepted the $70,000 POSITION,

But, before, Vince, the editor was appointed PIO for the City, his newspaper profiled another African-American blasting the Mayor's office for the lack of African -Americans holding high positions in the Mayor's Office. The Mayor needed the African-American vote to get elected and did not hire enough African-Americans after the election.

The Mayor suggests he's no quota man, when he says he wants only qualified blacks, to his black critics with a smile.

Was it just mere coincidence that Vince is a member of a clique of African-Americans in which the same person who he profiled in his newspaper to blast Henry is also a member?


Now, the editor''s brother, Dean the actor, suggests that his brother is just a Fort Wayne city slicker type Rev. Al Sharpton or the elder Rev. Jessie Jackson. No, those are not the words used by Dean, this what Dean wrote,

"Hines and Robinson's September '08 gripe had to do with Mayor Henry not
employing enough black people in their opinion. These men were not concerned
with fair opportunities for minorities and all people. They just want job quotas for black people — period.

These men do not understand the full meaning of racism. INK is a racist bully pulpit. Mayor Henry capitulated to Hines and
Robinson's racist manipulation. These men deserve what they get from one
another. There can not possibly be any trust among them. They have made careers
of compromising their principles. The citizens of Fort Wayne can now watch the
compromises out in the great wide open."

In essence a comparison to the two civil right icons who uses race to make raced white folks shake in their boots kinda behavior used against Henry by the tag team..

Dean used his acting skills to call this black racism.

But those in the African-American community who do not play to raced white audience, like the Robinsons do simply call it sale out behavior or tomfoolery.

bELOW YOU WILL SEE THE STAGED AMBUSH APLUSK STYLE.




But this episode of the Robinsons calling one brother a racist smacks of any print is good print or exposure type behavior. Neither brothers have the power to bring down the raced white elites who run the city's purse strings and provides contracts and jobs.
