Is a victim of racism entitled to be bitter?

*sigh*  Sure, if they want to fester in what once was.  The difference again being a mountain's worth between your aquaintance and Wright.  They also refer to that as victocrat mentality.  As I said, I know and have heard from folks who went thru the same garbage Wright went thru, and they've managed to do just fine in advocating &.or living an MLK approach to a colorblind society. 

What makes Wright so special that his rancid rhetoric gets sucha rationalized kid glove treatment, I wonder


Wait !

Maybe it is actually a good idea?

Reverend Wright is not the only one to make a good liveing on this bitterness.

So, if I push a White's Value system, I'm not a racist.  If I push for Whites to ban together to battle the forces I deem oppressive, I'm not a racist??  Is that what you're trying to say??

Any institutionalized program that elevates one group of people over another is on its face wrong and banding together to fight this injustice as a group is certainly not racist and is certainly the right thing to do.

Yes but it is a bad idea even so.

Perhaps.

But it is understandable.

It needs to be reciprocally understandable , otherwise it become self sustaining as the offenses bounce back and forth.
