Diane,

If you are part of the white majority, you must understand one difficult truth: Race trumps celebrity status. In fact race trumps everything!..all the time, anywhere.

Now as a white person you’re, no doubt, gasping with disapproval right now but if you can accept this reality as truth you will gain a deeper understanding of our societal problems. We are not post racial or even close to it.

I know many whites prefer to pave over the racist core structure of our country but it is what it is.
