Our New Attorney General Tells The Truth When He Says That We Are A "Nation Of Cowards"!!
I feel sorry for the individual who wrote the caption for this video.They feel that Eric Holder's honesty on the issue of race was meant to incite "black entitlement & white guilt"! Well,these kinds of sentiments push people to just ignore racism altogether!Why would whites feel guilty if they've never had one negative thought about blacks?If your family's history isn't mired in slavery & you have never done anything to perpetuate racism,you shouldn't feel guilty.And what exactly do blacks feel that they are entitled to?
How about the respect that we deserve for the instrumental part that African-Americans played in the formation & development of America,for starters!I am sick of folks pretending that blacks are just lying when they point out the inequality & injustice that still pervades America!Things may be improving,but you still have a lot of folks that are clinging to the past,like the man behind the NY Post chimp cartoon!Eric Holder was right when he said that we are a "nation of cowards".
That's why I started this blog in the first place!My race remains one of the most pertinent issues in my life.I long for the day when it is not!
