I've never agreed with those who say that America is inherently racist. It's true that America does have a racist problem but I thought we were making progress. I was going to write about Cliven Bundy, the "militia" leader who's been illegal grazing cattle on public (that is our land) and got into a confrontation with Federal authorities. Bundy
has revealed himself to be a racist claiming that Black people were better off under slavery.
Recently, however, Donald Sterling the real estate tycoon and owner of the LA Clippers, was caught on tape making hateful remarks about Black people. This is from someone who employs many African Americans. I guess, that's why racism persists. It serves to foster a sense of "white solidarity" between rich fat cats like Sterling and small time losers like Bundy.
