JCP, Bill Cosby and Condi Rice - the favorite blacks of VERY white people! LOL, this coming from someone likely to be "very white" himself. Not that it takes much courage on your part to act all "black." He isn't acting black. Instead, he is suggesting that Cosby and Rice act white. Cosby is an actor and a comedian so he doesn't do much damage playing white. Rice, on the other hand, looses some of her effectiveness. She identifies with rich whites as opposed to poor blacks. That's in part because she grew up middle class in Birmingham but then she also knows what it means to be black in America: "She was born the same year as the landmark Brown v. Board of Education decision. Rice was eight when her schoolmate Denise McNair was killed in the bombing of the primarily African-American Sixteenth Street Baptist Church by white supremacists on September 15, 1963. Rice states that growing up during segregation taught her determination against adversity, and the need to be "twice as good" as non-minorities [5]." en.wikipedia.org Unfortunately, it seems she has chosen to be in denial. She got the part about having to work twice as hard as whites but seemingly hasn't noticed how patently unfair that is. ted
