  @dusty there is no point except to keep people divided. The war for Civil rights was won wholeheartedly 50+ years ago. Racism is on life support in America. Black folks don’t need black leaders, no ethnic group does. Americans need to be Americans first.

  @jesse fay I get what you’re saying to me, but I disagree with your rhetoric. We’re both entitled to our own opinions, so I’m just going to leave it at that as I think there are better uses of each of our time than going down the rabbit hole of race relations on YouTube’s comment section. Thanks for your time though.
