Al Sharpton is an asshole. He is no Martin Luther King Jr. or Malcolm X, he is an asshole. He doesn't help any problems, but only creates more racial tension. He makes it so that white people are even afraid to address the topic of racism. How can something be helped when people are afraid to bring it up. I know white people can't stand Al, and I don't even think black people like him. This is how I feel about racism...white people are afraid to say anything now a days because they are scared of being persecuted. We can't just keep pushing it under the rug. It is there, it needs to be brought out into the open and exposed.

I look at it like this. Say you have beef with someone in your neighborhood. You could avoid that person for however long, but after a while your going to run into him, and guess what, there is going to be a conflict. Or you could just have a sit down talk with this person as soon as the beef starts, and avoid further conflicts. If we have a big discussion about racism we can help. I think racism can be greatly eliminated in the major cities like New York and California. It will take a lot longer for the south and such, but you got to start somewhere.

I think white people need black people and black people need white people. America just wouldn't be America without the other. What would the American culture be like without black influence? Would we be listening to classical while watching guys in the highest shorts ever shooting hook shots in a game of basketball?
