I am going to leave this quote from reddit (https://www.reddit.com/r/videos/comments/4mhwyk/muhammad_ali...)
here. Make of it what you will : "People saying this is racist are misunderstanding that the problem with racism is not just some words, it's the power balance dynamic that backs them.
A black man saying white people are the devil, has no power to actually do much damage, even in 2016. A white man saying that black man is the devil, has during our history been able to: imprison the person on trumped up charges, have their family bought and sold, beaten often to death, hung them, tar and feather, run them out of town, and refuse them housing.
To pretend that there is an equality between two statements from people of different skin colors in current and past american society is to be willfully blind to the difference between them." |
