Would you care if it was a white girl who was raped by "40 White Duke Lacrosse players"???
If your answer is Yes - you would care - then why is this a race issue??????? I can't say for sure, but they probably would have raped whoever they hired - black, white, yellow or pink. It just happened to be a black girl in this case.
The issue is a GIRL was raped by several Lacrosse players and no one is stepping forward. Do you honestly believe that if the girl that was raped was white that magically someone would offer info or step forward???
Oh, and if you answered "No" to the original question, then I just have no more words for you.

The service that the victim was hired from said that they do not give a job to a Black dancer unless the person hiring them specifically asks for Black girls. This suggests that the team specifically requested a Black girl. Lets not ignore the history of White America's hypersexualization of Black women. There are a LOT of White guys who watch music videos all day and truly believe that Black women's purpose is sexual entertainment. Then when a Black woman says NO to them, they feel cheated. The sexual assault of White women is definitely given more validity and taken more seriously.
