Basketball Is For Everybody

Telling blacks not to come to a basketball game. That is such a racist remark and a shame. Making such a comment is an absurdity. In the professional basketball community, African-Americans make up the great majority. Those words said were a public disgrace. Everywhere in any professional sports place, room should be made for any color and race. from a news story found on aol.com

Racism is a dark cancer of the soul. A dark evil that eats away at a human's dignity and soul..

People who discriminate on the basis or race, sex, creed or national origin as small insecure people ... Light & Love
