Its been a year since Bill Cosby's remarks to the NACCP about poor African-American's irresponsible behavior and lifestyles, emphasizing personal behavior/responsibility/consumption, with no comment about collective economic, social or political policies/responsibility.
Now Michael Eric Dyson, who from the beginning pointed out the problems with Bill Cosby's complaints, continues his critique in a new book:
MSNBC: Responding to a controversial debate about race in America
NPR: "Is Bill Cosby Right or Is the Black Middle Class Out of Touch?"
Michael Eric Dyson: Armed for the Class Wars
And others, in turn, critique Dyson's take on Cosby's speech:
Kay S. Hymowitz: Bill Cosby is Right
