I love this video, as it totally proves my point from yesterday, about Eric Holder’s remarks. Just to refresh your mammaries:
It seems like discussions of race are A-OK if you’re talking about getting over it. But see what happens the minute you try to get people to take responsibility for racism. For participating in it, allowing it, or simply failing to recognize it when they see it.
The professor sums it upbrilliantly, whenever the White Man quits fucking with his signal, by saying that when black folks speak honestly about race, it’s called “blaming,” and when white folks do, it’s called “taking responsibility.” Kinda like in New Orleans, where some people were “looting,” while others were “foraging.”
