All Wet Author of Negrophilia hoses down racism charge in New York firehouse’s Obama graffiti incident

Contrary to accusations being made by some black leaders in New York, a defaced image of Barack Obama in a Bronx firehouse is not evidence of racism, says the author of a controversial new book that challenges America's obsession with race. In fact, says Erik Rush, it is a symptom of something far worse— “Negrophilia.” Rush’s latest, “Negrophilia: From Slave Block to Pedestal – America’s Racial Obsession,” by WND Books is topping several categories at Amazon and sparking heated debates across the blogosphere. Negrophilia, Rush explains in a recent column under the title, "We all niggas now!" once targeted the black community but is truly "colorblind in its nefarious and unfolding intents." The same Leftist technique, writes Rush, that has compromised "the social and cultural viability of black Americans, is identical to that which was later (and is currently being) used to transform the rest of America into a society sufficiently hedonistic, ignorant, dependent and deluded that it might be easily and effectively hoodwinked into voting away its liberties." He points to the internal investigation now underway at New York firehouse where an image of President Obama painted on a toolbox was recently covered with the word "hustler" and "Allah Akbar.” To interview Erik Rush, or to receive review copies please contact Tim Bueler at (530) 401-3285 or email WorldNetDaily at media@wnd.com "Racism is alive and well in America, and the Fire Department is evidence of that," said John Coombs, president of the organization of black firefighters called the Vulcan Society. “Here they go again,” responds Rush. “John Coombs' words are a Pavlovian response in line with far left racial orthodoxy. Despite unprecedented popular fear and disgust as regards this president’s policies, black organizations, politicians and activists continue to fling race cards like Gambit from the ‘X-Men.’ “This is a quintessential example of the lock-step in which prominent black leaders continue to fall, that of being in step with the left, itself a racist entity,” Rush continues. “It is no wonder why many Americans – particularly young blacks – are still so paranoid about racism in 2010. There was no compelling reason to ascribe racism to the firehouse graffiti, yet, once again we have a prominent black man going over the top with unfounded accusations.” Rush warns that Negrophilia’s outgrowths—racial confusion, tension and division—are foisted on the country to keep blacks "obedient," whites "silent" and "political control" secure. "As has become clear to millions of Americans, since the end of the Civil Rights Movement, issues of racial tension and cultural balkanization have never been about Americans being incapable of peacefully coexisting," he writes in his WND column, "They have been about weakening our perception of ourselves as Americans, thus resulting in squabbling amongst ourselves, rather than addressing our common enemy (the political left) and being ripe for the aforementioned hoodwinking. “This emerging clarity, if you will, has led to more Americans becoming engaged with each passing week… For all practical purposes, our neighbors have realized that in our leaders' eyes, ‘we all niggas now!’” About the Author Born in New York City in 1961, from 1975 to 1985 columnist and author Erik Rush was a club, stage and studio musician.
