I feel this fits under the Great Debates since it deals with racism which is an ever present topic in this forum.
K, did anybody watch the first episode of the real world? I did, and that country guy who was branded racists did not get a fair show IMHO. It seemed to me(me being the key word) that he was trying to sympathise with Malik and Coral. He was saying that inner city black cities were not as good as they should be and as a result the kids were not getting a good education. Now he did not word it very well. But, He never ever said that blacks were dumber than whites. He said that most were less educated because of the system. Know what I mean?
