Why aren't these things being shown more so people can see it and jump on the bandwagon? Could it be that the media consistently opts out of covering things like this??? hmmmmm.
So, yeah, I hear what Bill is saying and all that, but I would have prefered reading/hearing about more things that are being done by those people who were glad to hear him say what he said! I would have even wanted to hear more about what HE has done, which is a LOT, for these causes.

That would be too much like right. What we are seeing in the media is a little bit more digestable for some folks.
There is unrest in the Black community and I think some folks feed off of that.
