[edit] NCState Status?

The article currently ambiguously identifies KK as a "visiting professor" at NCSU. His actual NCSU title was "affiliated faculty member", hired on an as-needed basis for a couple years. He was not awarded NCSU professor status, "visiting" or otherwise, and wasn't re-employed after The Speech. His apparent professorship was at St. Augustine's College in Raleigh NC, but he's no longer employed there. Since the page is protected, some registered Wikiite may want to clear that up. Change the first line to "...taught African Studies at North Carolina State where he was an affiliated...", etc. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 68.74.205.233 (talk) 07:40, 7 December 2006 (UTC).

[edit] NPOV?

I inserted a "NPOV" template into the article. It's an extremely one-sided article, as can be judged by the lead: "Advocate for racial genocide." He may be an asshole, but this is no way to make a Wikipedia article about him. --("tphcm") 208.51.23.195 03:56, 30 October 2005 (UTC)

Give me a break. He said, "we have to exterminate white people off the face of the planet to solve this problem." That's advocating genocide. Descendall 01:05, 5 November 2005 (UTC)

But it is true. He wants to exterminate white people from the planet.

There's no denying the guy said the things he did at Howard. I suppose next we should put a flag on Adolf Hitler's article because he, too, advocated genocide.

The flag is there because this article only exists to portray him as an advocate of racial genocide. If this was a NPOV article, it would discuss other aspects of him. Even Hitler's article does this by discussing his climb to power, his personal life, etc. This article is just a collection of quotes, from one speech, making him out as an anti-white racist. He may be an anti-white racist, but that's not all he is. It's biased, and there's no denying it.

That may be true, but maybe not much is known about his personal life.

The only reason this article exists is the only reason we would care to know about this person in the first place. If he had not made those silly, inflamatory and hateful remarks, we would neither have cause nor interest to even know his name. To compare him to Hitler is to give him a claim to greater (infamy)fame than he deserves. Hitler deserves in-depth analysis because of the scope of his impact on world event. This individual has accomplished nothing but exercising his free speech. I don't think there is any valid reason to challenge the neutrality of this article, and the flag should be removed. 68.211.27.95 07:41, 13 December 2005 (UTC)jt

The beauty is, we have the freedom to catalog possibly mentally ill people as well. If this guy isn't just grandstanding for the media and actually believes what he speaks, he's definitely got some issues. Pull the flag, the article isn't biased that I can see. I've found the same information on many other sites on the net, as silly as it is. The man definitely gives you a chuckle! He may advocate genocide, but he's obviously in no position to make that happen.

Only Blacks get handed this kid-glove treatment. In this, as always, reverse the races. Whites who are deemed racists haven't said anything close to this guy. Why is this flagged?

the only non NPOV part is the "strong african warrior" description. he sounds kinda...american to me.

I agree the the "strong african warrior" part should be removed, as well as the category link at the bottom for "idiot" in order for this article to be more neutral. EricHarvey 19:04, 16 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Vandalism

Deleted some vandalism that had been added to the article, along the lines of common derogitory language referring to afro-americans. Might wanna lock this bad boy for a while so no one does likewise, anything to do with someone with famous genocidal views is going to attract negative attention like this. -Spoonman.au, 8-Dec-2006. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Spoonman.au (talk • contribs) 07:40, 8 December 2006 (UTC).

[edit] Tagged for Cleanup

This is an encyclopedia article, not an editorial article. Please leave the emotions out of it. Present the facts and leave it at that. --Grocer 22:33, 27 January 2006 (UTC)

Haha. How many white-supremacist groups are there whoch advocate the extirmination of the black race. Com[ared to them, the inverse argument is quantitatively microscopic. Please know what you are talking about before you make reverse-discrimination claims.

SO that makes it ok, Huh... I think you are the one who need to know what they are talking about. Osama, Hitler, Manson, etc... were all harmless until they gathered a following.

i agree without believers and followers these people would be nothing

This guy is a hard core racist and should be labeled as such. His views are exactly the same as the neo nazis except for the target race. His support for genocide places him in the same camp as Hitler.

• • This is not a blog. This should be tagged for bias. --Phopojijo

reverse-discrimination? no such thing - It's either discriminatory or not...

[edit]  ?

This is racism against the suppposed racists. Two interesting things I'd like to point at, while coincidentially having watched the movie clip of his speech. He states that "white people are out to kill you" and "they also try to make money in the process of killing you". Two things: first a somewhat grotesque fact is that during his speech someone can be seen on the left side, his right side. Isn't he afraid? Secondly I noticed that during the video, an info box is shown which states that he is the owner of Blacknificant Books. My somewhat sharp question here would be, if that isn't making money out of someone's bethreatened death? So if he's not afraid of the person behind his back and he's making money with his books... isn't he actually doing exactly what he tries to make people believe, a "white" person does?

[edit] Speculative

This Prof. Kambon clearly has some issues and it can be plainly seen when watching the video that he is under some kind of stress. What's more, I think that as can be seen from his picture in the article which has a strange likeness to drawings of Albrecht Dürer, the northern Renaissance painter, woodcarver, and draughtsman, and of the famous Italian painter Raffael, Prof. Kambon may actually be trying to emulate those giants of European civilization, or at least to bask somewhat in their glory.

This page has been vandalized and the picture listed is not a real picture of the Dr.
