Question:I was told by a friend that Eldridge Cleaver said that, after a jail experience, he essentially made a hobby of raping white women. Cleaver's supposed explanation was that 1) jail was a "culture of rape", a very violent institution, 2) jail & juvi are overpopulated by non-white individuals (due to many facets of racism), 3) so some minority men rape white women to get revenge on the anger targets of white men in power.
My Google search indicated no truth to his statement; that most rapes are by people of equal power to the victim or more power, regarding social class; so that more women of color are raped by white men, than the reverse.
Anyone have knowledge about Eldridge Cleaver's supposed quote? Was my friend's quote of him even a fact?
Answers:
What exactly is the quote?
I know that he was a member of the black panthers and he wrote a book about the raping of white women ...
