The House Negro and the Field Negro

 

「『ジャンゴ』のサミュエル・L・ジャクソンみたいなもの」
映画を見た者からすれば、非常に分かりやすい表現だ…

  Were There Slaves Like Stephen in 'Django'? ByHenry Louis Gates Jr. 4/29/13 12

面白いのはMalcom Xは”House negero ”ということで、

Malcolm, of course, was engaging in a high-flying rhetorical battle here. He was signifying, allegorically, on Martin Luther King Jr. and the "Big Six" leaders of the civil rights movement, rather than sharing a factual black history lesson with his young, militant SNCC audience about the real nature of the slave community. 

And in case anyone in the room the day he gave this speech may have missed the point of the allegory, Malcolm goes on to say that "Just as the slave master of that day used Tom, the house Negro, to keep the field Negroes in check, the same old slave master today has Negroes who are nothing but modern Uncle Toms, 20th-century Uncle Toms, to keep you and me in check, keep us under control, keep us passive and peaceful and nonviolent. That's Tom making you nonviolent." Ouch!

キング牧師のことを暗喩してたんだね。
