AmRen - David Adams: Sick of White People - Olivia Cole a white savior speaks for blacks - "This blinding narcissism is a way to portray herself as both the redeemer and the redeemed.

Sick of White People
Olivia Cole
A white savior speaks for blacks.
Politically correct Huffington Post columnist, Olivia Cole, recently went to the cinema to watch Lucy.
The film is about a drug mule who develops super powers after a synthetic drug is released into her system. As is standard for Hollywood, beyond the action-packed scenes, Lucypushes a message of universal humanism, complete with moralistic speeches from a wise, black professor.

However, Miss Cole belongs to a superior breed, and is not so easily pleased: In fact, she was so incensed by the movie’s “racism” that she rushed home to hammer out a knuckleduster-and-chain condemnation of the film and American cinema generally. The reason for her fury? Blonde, blue-eyed Scarlett Johansson has the lead role.
Miss Cole, who is white, “can’t get right with that.”
