Re: Obama Speech Tuesday morning 3/18/08
Tal, the political persuasion of one being pulled over because of race is not the point. The point is that someone who people truly listen to finally came out and said the people of color in this nation are angry. Chels and I just gave examples of why they're angry and we've seen very little compared to what some of our friends, neighbors, acquaintances and even family have experienced in the course of their lives.
There is something inherently tragic that a nation that is premised with the concepts of justice for all, individual rights, freedom has over 10% of its population believing those concepts are for white men and not them or their children.
