Obama calls for persistence in confronting 'deeply rooted' racism

24. I agree with nearly everything you wrote, except

I don't see where white people are being blamed.

I am so saddened that Eric Garner died. He shouldn't have died. The only solace I can take is that the general public is very angry over his death. And that I hope his death is not in vain and that something, somehow may come from it.

I believe that to be true. This was the catalyst. People are done, people are angry, people are awake.

To call this a white/black issue is to lower all of our standards. Everyone is angry. Everyone has had enough.

This is a civil rights case, against a black man. Something we should have been over long, long ago.

And if there are "white people" who are upset for any reason about this, they should also be supportive in this case.

It ultimately is about civil rights, for all. All. Not just black or white people.
