Throughout the 50s,60s and the 70s, good Americans sat there and allowed these people to define race. In fact, to some degree, even respected government officials were forced to stay quite or die. While many White people were heavily involved in the civil right movements, the overwhelming majority remained silent. How many times did we see the same people who hanged a black overjoyed in the courthouse because an all white jury found them not guilty in less then an hour. All these things created a deep seated hatred sentiment in the American society...so even if it seems like we are making some progress, the fact that so many good people remained quite during these trouble times, there will always be a level of uncertainty. During the OJ trail, for instance, even though almost all black people thought he was guilty, they wanted him to win. For, to them, it was the first time a black would beat the system that had wronged them for so long. But if more good Americans stood up against those distorted people, I think history would be more inclined to forgive a guy like Wilson. The only way the issue of racism might diminish is for more good people stand against hate.

I hope for Obama's sake he is a more competent president than Carter was. Give me a break…. a lie is a lie color doesn’t make a difference.
