Charles Barkley is known for ruffling the feathers of some people in the black community, but he just said what a lot of us have been thinking: there are a lot of people who are full of it.

In an interview with The Shadow League, the former NBA star-turned-announcer answered his critics who continue to question his blackness:

“I don’t worry about that. Listen, my track record speaks for itself. The one thing I’ve learned as a black man is every time I say something that is not 100 percent in agreement with the black community there’s a faction that goes crazy. I don’t care about that.”

That same “faction” comes after him for his charity work, even though he would prefer to keep that private. Some of these people berate him for not supporting the black community as if they know:

“People say to me ‘Man, did you just give a million dollars to a Historically Black College?’ I say, ‘Yeah.’ And they say, ‘Well, why didn’t you tell anybody?’ and I say, ‘I’m not trying to impress those cocks*ckers.’ I just gave Morehouse, Clark Atlanta and Alabama A&M in Huntsville a million dollars to help black kids go to college. I just gave Auburn two million to recruit black kids. I’m good with my blackness. Listen, man, one thing I understand about being black and famous is a lot of black people are full of sh*t. I’m good with that.”

He definitely tells it like it is!

But he wasn’t through. Barkley said he will never use social media, where a lot of the criticisms originate, because, “Every loser has an opinion, every loser thinks their opinion is important and it’s one of the evils of the world. I do no social media whatsoever.”

The entity known as “Black Twitter” could learn a thing or two. Not everything deserves equal amounts of racial outrage. It cheapens actual racism.

And Barkley can’t even escape being accused of knowing nothing about the game of basketball. Really?!

“You know it’s basketball, right?” Barkley responded perfectly. “It’s not brain surgery. I don’t think anybody wants me operating on them.”

You tell them!
