And then the second half of the article just worships the wisdom of Ta-Nehisi Coates.

The wisdom of starting a career writing shitty comic books? :hmm:

How were his comics shitty? I was under the impression they were well regarded (but I don't know).

I dislike most of what he does. -_-

So well regarded that they only made it to 6 issues because nobody bought them.  Though I'll admit I didn't read them-- nor any comic book since I was in 5th grade.

Ta-Nehisi Coates is the son of a black terrorist and it shows, he has good literary skills but he uses those skills to find 10,000 different ways to say "all whites are evil."

That was not my impression from reading his stuff.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

He's one of the main reasons I stopped reading The Atlantic.  Though I liked his article about redlining and wealth accumulation.
