Vile Racist

Racism is alive and well and was recently on display in Savannah when a pastor held a political rally and banned white journalists from attending. It would be easy, too easy, so observe that were "white" substituted for "black" and vice versa that there would be hell to pay. Al Sharpton would descend and the ACLU would find some way to enhance their public presence.

But that isn't the real problem nor the worst of it.

If this pastor were a card carrying member of the Ku Klux Klan he could not have said or done anything more racist and more demeaning to African-Americans than what he did and what he said. It wasn't that he excluded white journalist but that he admitted any and all black journalists. What does that say about his views of the black community and black journalists? Basically he is saying they are incapable of any thought or belief that the Black Elite has not put in their empty heads. In his world view his fellow African-Americans are mindless drones and he bases this on little but the color of their skin. He is saying that all black journalists are all the same and will bow to his point of view and do his bidding because they are incapable of independent reasoning. And that is racism most vile.
