Racism does exist, at his church. Imagine a white guy saying
he goes to KKK meetings because everyone is racist anyway.
My point was claiming everyone is racist so what's wrong
with being a part of it is still being racist.

didn't anyone else

He compared his grandmother (the whites) to the black
community, you take the good with the bad. They're both good
but racist.
>> Bullshit. You accept his claim that all blacks are
racist?
>HE NEVER CLAIMED THAT!
>Goddamnit, would you please pay attention?? Here we go:
>SOME blacks ARE racist.
>Got that? Following me here?
>Do I accept his claim that some blacks are racist? Yes,
yes I do.
"And occasionally it finds voice in the church on
Sunday morning, in the pulpit and in the pews. The fact that
so many people are surprised to hear that anger in some of
Reverend Wright’s sermons simply reminds us of the old
truism that the most segregated hour in American life occurs
on Sunday morning."
I think he's saying not every Sunday but every black
church.
"In fact, a similar anger exists within segments of the
white community"...

Please stop being a righteous ass. Not agreeing doesn't mean
you are right or even close to being right. Pretend you're
not brainwashed and read the speech again.

Should white folk bring their kids to KKK meetings for
something more?
Explain that please.

He says a lot of things that aren't true like he never heard
the negative comments from this guy.
If it makes you feel better believe everything he says and
ridicule anyone that questions him.
