Would you like your racism served blatantly or subtly?

Would you like your racism served blatantly or subtly?

As painful as it is, racism is still very prevalent and isn’t going anywhere anytime soon.  We see it in the media day in and day out.  Our communities are still being affected by it; slowly gnawing away at the pride of who we were created to be.

David Letterman: Trump's Obama Remarks "Smack of Racism"

David Letterman: Trump's Obama Remarks "Smack of Racism"

In the middle of a lighthearted Late Show interview with Dr. Phil (airing Friday night on CBS), host David Letterman takes the opportunity to make his thoughts crystal clear on the subject of Donald Trump's recent remarks about President Barack Obama, saying they "smack of racism."

Letterman isn't referring to the birther controversy, or the fact that Trump takes credit for the White House's decision to release the birth certificate. Letterman is pointing to Trump's questions about Obama's education and how Obama could have written his memoir. "That's taking on a whole different point of view, as far as I'm concerned," Letterman says to Dr. Phil.

Dr. Phil is a known friend of Trump, and skirts around the issue for a bit, joking about Trump's presidential hopes and that the Donald probably wants to turn the White House into a condo. But Letterman doesn't let the conversation get off track. When Dr. Phil jokes about Trump's comments on Obama's education, Letterman says, "Other people are not amused by this tactic. And, by the way, nobody should be amused by this tactic."

Dr. Phil declares that Trump doesn't have "a racist bone in his body" and Letterman asks, "How can you say things like that if you're not a racist?" Letterman continues, "If (Trump) comes back on this show, and I'm not sure we want him back on the show under these circumstances, he ought to be prepared to apologize for that kind of behavior."

How does this particular conversation end, you may be wondering? With a high-five and laughter, of course. Watch the interview below!

Interracial Dating: Still an Issue?

Interracial Dating: Still an Issue?

Is interracial dating still an issue in this generation?


Interracial couples face a number of challenges, some similar to couples who are from different religions or have different family backgrounds. Will the two families be able to meet and get along?  What about children? How will they be raised? However,  interracial couples seem to have more to consider before making the commitment. Does the family choose to live on this side of town or the other? How will the couple support their children when they face identity issues growing up? The interracial couple will also most likely face negative comments, looks, and stares from complete strangers and even from supposed friends and family. People who interdate need to have the ability to not worry about what others think and say about them. But what if it is your family? Couples have been denied marriage licenses. Children have even been cut off from the family for dating/marrying outside their race.


But  wait! Is that the generation of yesteryear or does Generation X & Y still carry the veiled prejudices of their parent’s generation?


Let's talk about it!
