FUSsa-talk Mailing List: Re: Fw: Time Wise on Police, White Privilege, and H.L. Gates

[Carol Koepp (carolkoepp]

I heard Juan Williams (produced "Eye on the Prize" and regular commentator 
on NPR and other places) talk about the Gates incident this morning.  He was 
pretty hard on Obama for not checking the facts before commenting publicly. 
He also said that this blow-up shows how raw this subject is with black men 
because of past experiences.
