The NBA and White Wives

"Girrrlll, that's what they all do: Cling to a sista while they're broke and in school. Then get a contract and put a ring on the white girl hand." Yeah, if you haven't said it you've heard it. The greatest issue in American racism is not separation of the races; in this melting pot we call America, it is actually the sexuality of the races. The notion, the irrational fear, that the black man is some brainless sex fiend fixated on white women, has fueled the hate groups.

Is it a by accident, or coincidence, that the view is still propagated by the media? YAAAMS thinks not. The truth of the matter is that 90 percent of African-American married NBA players (such as Pat Ewing, Tim Hardaway, and Mitch Richmond) are married to African-American women. But most people believe that the majority of African-American NBA players are married to non-African-Americans. Why? Because the media highlights and shows the African-American player's wife who is not African-American five times more than showing the African-American wife. This biased or selective coverage gives people the false impression.


Excerpted from above website. Click on link to see the 2001 NBA All Stars and the ethnicity of their wives.
