Spike Lee is likening Donald Sterling's racist and inflammatory remarks to those of a slave owner.

Lee, speaking to CNN's Anderson Cooper, said that he believes the owner of the L.A. Clippers should be removed from his position within the NBA.

Nice commentary on race from the guy who says white men can’t jump.

Just so we get this straight...Spike Lee, Magic Johnson, Sharpton, et al have never said, “Why do those honkies hang around us?” or words to that effect?

Is Sterling’s problem simply that he was recorded and they weren’t?

What a dunce Lee is. I’m not aware of any slave owners that made their slaves filthy rich.

Good ol Spike Lee, who posted the address of an innocent couple during the Zimmerman case and thousands of people threatened to kill them because of Spike’s idiocy, oh yeah THAT Spike Lee..in this day and age its OK to be a black racist, but not a white one..if Sterling were black and went on a white racist rant he would have been applauded..same if Sterling had gone on a GOP racist rant, same result, no one would be talking about it

I guess every prominent race baiter like Lee will have to make an unwanted statement in the next 24 hours.

And, the NAACP honored someone with slave master’s mentality back in 2009?

Average salary in the NBA is $5 million a year.

So where can us poor honkies sign up for that kind of slavery??

And Spike Lee is worried about whites moving into Brooklyn, and changing the ghetto neighborhood culture.

If anyone said the reverse, that whites worried about minorities moving in and bringing on ghetto culture, such person would be banished as Sterling is being banished now.

But if a member of a recognized grievance group says something outrageous, then it’s ok,. Spike Lee is a member of such a group, so he can say and do whatever the hell he wants with no sanctions.

The elephant in the room which no one sees or will allow to be seen is Black racism combined with Black crime and the worship of all Blacks in the media.

Actually it is more like Godzilla in the room and no one will admit it is there.

A “slave master” who pays his slaves hundreds of millions of dollars. That’s new.
