What makes self-hatred so insidious is that a lot of black folks are walking around infected with this nasty bug and have no clue, but let me assure you if you refuse to patronize a business simply because it's black-owned, you have it. If your first inclination when you see a successful black person is to turn up your nose, you have it. If you always feel the need to haggle black business owners (but wouldn't do the same to non-blacks) you better believe you have it! Things can even take a turn for the worse if it's allowed to go unchecked, that same self-hatred will also play a part in you doing the unthinkable to another black brother or sister as was the case in the story of 21 year old Destiny Harrison.
