Don't you see how you're adding gasoline to the fire? The man's generation saw many injustices and discrimination. That's going to come out in his world view. He's a product of his era and his experiences.

Honestly I don't think many of us here understand black folks. We have a black brother here that has expressed as much also. And yes...no offense...but sometimes I find it embarrassing.

I don't think Wright is racist either.

Sam, I think you are right or it is just things people do that annoy us and if that person is another color we call it racism?
