while receiving the "Oprah Winfrey" Lincoln Leadership Prize.... I think this just broke my "Irony Meter."

So is it Wrights comments that the US created Aids that Tutu believes American Blacks believe in?

This marxist POS is helping turn S. Africa into the same sort of shithole that Zimbabwe is.

I’ve been amazed at how much victimhood their is amongst blacks I know and even among celebrity blacks.

Tutu isn’t far off the mark when he says its universal.

I’ve come full circle. Then, apartheid bad. segregation bad, Now. We seem to be heading for a new apartheid. A self segregating society.

Desmond Tutu believes that Wright says the things that all black Americans want to say...

Based on my own personal experiences, I think Mr. Tutu is largely correct.

There are too many phonies who claim to speak for “all Blacks”.

Desmond Tutu should put on the clothing item called the same thing as his last name and go dance a ballet in the middle of a pride of lions.

“the Abraham Lincoln Presidential Library Foundation’s Lincoln Leadership Prize, presented by Oprah Winfrey.”

What exactly did he do to deserve this?

“”You're a country that has I think some of the most generous people I've ever come across in the world.””

Well at least he recognized that. If he had kept it at that, I wouldn't be feeling venomous right now.

“the issue will haunt Americans until there is a way to talk honestly about race, such as holding a reconciliation forum.”

Which will entail licking their boots and giving them money that they didn’t earn.
