I don't disagree that there is racism. What Nash doesn't seem to be able to grasp is that blacks are racist too, and he thinks that it's O.K. for them, because he saw "Gone with the Wind" and thinks that everybody had hundreds of slaves, and nobody treated them well. He also would never believe that blacks actually OWNED blacks in those "slave days". He wants the white race of today to bleed for what happened hundreds of years ago. I don't bleed for something I didn't do. I do in fact have that degree, therefore I KNOW that the remark that this country was built by the labors of black slaves is just plain stupid and insulting, and not the remark of someone with a higher education. Nash is infinitely more racist and blind to truth than most white people. I hate to break it to him, but your average white person is just living a life and couldn't bother being racist just because of someone's skin. If he believes he represents black people, then apparently they are not able to do this. Nash also seems to believe that all black people are wonderful to each other and would never take advantage of another black person. What a wonderful world. In that case segregation is a good thing, because whites aren't so wonderful to each other...
One word: Ashanti. That word should mean something to all blacks.
Oh yeah, Obama turned his back on his pastor because it might hurt his political career. I love brotherhood. Then there's Ray Nagin's chocolate town. There are so many threads that this issue could go down it's amazing. But, certain blacks will skirt them and condone all behavior because of "slavery".
I'm glad I did what it took to get an education, work REALLY hard, and have a life of my making without federal aid and pity. So did those blacks that I call friend, and who have even less patience with those with Nash's attitude than I ever would.
