I determine who my role models are. However, the media places these labels on people such as the "leader of the African-American community" or whatever. I never asked them to speak for me!
If they choose to step into that role then they better realize the awesome responsibility they take on and come correct. I know that no one is perfect and mistakes will be made, but I agree that he (and whoever the woman is) should have known better. Now that the world knows, he wants to take a "hiatus" and take time to heal and reconnect with his family.
