To me, Tim Wise lost all credibility with his last statement of the first segment.  He made a few statements that I did not agree with, but I understand perspective and opinion.  But Wise ended the interview with this comment:  “...when the country the founders envisioned was a formal system of white supremacy, excuse me if I find it a little hard to think that race is not playing a pretty big role”.  


Unbelievable!!!

religion was used to justify enslaving African people.


Frederick Douglas talked about this in his autobiography

they worked for free and were consider less then a person . they were called chattel


YOU DENY HISTORY AS FACT.

GET OVER IT YOUR ANCESTORS ARE HARD CORE RACIST/WHITE SUPREMACIST

likes to paint with the biggest brush he can find a hide behind the old "its racist" argument when democratic policies are criticized.

Come to think if it, I have never seen him and Al Sharpton in the same room at teh same time.

Amazing what they can do with makeup these days!!!

Bottom line, same old cowardly arguments from those who can not back up their positions...

Affirmitive Action is a joke it goes against everything MLK spoke about judging someone by their actions not the color of their skin if A white person has more experience than a black man he should get the job and vice versa.Look at those Fire fighters in conneticut that didnt get their promotions because there were not enough minorities it was white and hispanic men....Also the slaves counting as 3/5 of a person was set in place because the population in the south was huge compared to the North and if they wouldn't have done that they knew slavery would have never been over turned...There is racism on both sides of political spectrum but it is even more on the left then the right..Margarte sanger the founder of planned parenthood started the place to get rid of minorites she used to give stump speeches at kkk rallies..woodrow wilson a democrat president resegregated the military
