Or what about the subtle racism towards Obama from cable news-specifically FOX news. Im sure if you youtube "FOX NEWS OBAMA" you'll get plenty of results.
My step-dad had a film he was writing, but it got refused to be produced unless he made the main characters "white".
Just because the KKK aren't parading down the streets doesn't mean racism isn't around.You and i don't encounter it as much because were white, jay.
i agree it's gotten better over time, and hopefully will continue. |
How often is police brutality an issue? And how often is it exclusivley white cops and a black vicitm?
Here's the issue summed up as briefly as I can: Try to imagine yourself basing your treatment of another human being based solely on the color of their skin. Understand how absurd that sounds to you if you're a normal thinking person and keep that in mind before you go assuming that it's motivation for others.
