Are you really suprised that we haven't come that far... I mean really surprised?

If America is a melting pot, no one is bringing the pot to a boil

I haven't heard the clip and can't comment on if it is a slip of the tounge or not but as you read some of the posts - so many have already passed judgement on the sincerity or accidental slip of the tounge.

The news media certainly doesn't want to turn the heat on under the pot. If you listen to the news it's always a "white man did such and such and such to a black man" or the police arrested two black youths for such and such"

Why can't it just be "a man did such and such to another man" or "two youths were arrested for such and such"?

So much of the way people think are influenced by the news media and I truely believe that the NAACP should go after all news media outlets who present the news in the white/black man format.

If you want to change how the sermon is presented - you have to talk to the preachers.
