I feel like my views on race are based on reality, not some fairy tale. All I said was that it would be nice to know if blacks are going to be at the audition so I would know what kind of clothes should be worn, lapel flowers, etc. Do we not all have these thoughts. I'm just brave enough to admit it. That's one thing you can definitely learn from journalism and literature: how to tell it like it is. The Whassup commercials are definitely ones wear blacks are featured. Let's not turn a blind eye to this FACT. I'm sure you've noticed it Clark. There they all are in the commercial for us all to behold in their glory. Some of them are pretty buff indeed! I'm definitely for understanding between all people, and I think that requires honesty and sensitivity when it comes to clothes, hairstyles, food, accessories, vehicles, etc. "It's a complicated world, we just live in it."
