24. Because the "Angry Black Man" is portrayed as scary, mean, nasty,
.

The double standard for blacks and whites in this country is sickening. I personally found nothing wrong with what Rev. Wright said. Hell, if I were black, I'd be pissed off too at how my people have been treated for many, many, many years. I'm white, and I'm pissed off.

People like Hagee could get on TV and do something really nasty and a lot of people wouldn't blink. Rev. Wright points out the injustices that have been done to the blacks in this country, all of which are true, and he is vilified.
