Really?
When I see a Black guy on the local news for having robbed a bank, selling drugs or killing someone - I feel no need to apologize.
Why?
Because it wasn't me.

About Me
"In my opinion"
Concerning to whom the fault of oppression belongs;
"We are not all equally guilty but we are all equally responsible" - Rabbi Abraham Hescel
Concerning blaming others for the problem;
"...And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother's eye, but considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye?... - Matthew: 7 1-5
Concerning how to fix the problems concerning oppression;
"Someone once said that the word 'motivation' should never be used in the singular. Some combination of motives always exist and it's impossible for anyone to qualify the proportion of each that is involved in any given act" - Warren Buffet (in an interview in the USA Today)

Welcome
Although I'm pretty tired of the "Race is King" mantra usually put forward by past and current polemics, race-relations (and the improvement of such) is always a good topic of civilized conversation. I've been called "Uncle-Tom" more times than I've been called "N-----". When I volunteer at the local Habitat for Humanity, I'm often the only black working who's not trying to get a house. When I volunteer at the local shelter, I'm usually the only black on the giving end. Something is wrong or deficient with Black-culture (as it is practiced today). Don't say that I don't know the ghetto, I'm originally from the ghetto. My ghetto-pass wasn't pulled, like my middle school I.D., it expired. I graduated. Now, I say middle school because too many blacks haven't graduated from high school. (Detroit, anybody ?) Please feel free to bring up any topic but please refrain from misusing epithets and downgrading others. Thank you, UBJ

i think even non racist whites are confused with what racism is. maybe this guy feels guilty for throwin round the nigger word a few times too many...who knows? in any case i really want to know the demographic for this book...who reads stuff like this and why?
I'm the demographic for the book. I planned to read it.
@ Liam - There is a blogger who plies her trade with all the vitriol of a victim of racism herself.
IMOHO - Some people just try to project their own racism on others.
@ brohammas - Why? It might be an interesting read but there is no need for you to feel guilt.
(Or is there something you're not telling us?)
Guilt has nothing to do with it at all.
One challenge I have in getting white people motivated to deal with matters of race, is getting them to realize a problem even exists.
There is such thing as white privelege yet very fiew people wo have it, realize it.
It has nothing to do with fault or guilt, but more to do with opening eyes to a reality one didnt realize existes.
I would read the book for perspective and ideas on idea presentation.
