Millions in America watched the Academy Awards in record numbers but one of the biggest wins of the night had to have been the 45-year-old actress Sandra Bullock who won Best Actress for her winning colorblind portrayal of a real-life story.
Ms. Bullock played Leigh Anne Tuohy who demonstrated great moral character in helping Michael Ohers on-screen character when he was homeless as well as educationally rudderless. This was truly an example of Christian love.
Others in America were not so kind in their acceptance of Sandra Bullock in this role. Some called it patronizing and contrived to think that a white family would be so altruistic. Many in the black viewing audience believe that...

Didn’t a white woman raise that illegal alien in the White House, and didn’t Halle Berry’s white mother raise her??????????
Excellent post.
Aren’t we all at the point where we no longer care about the “black experience” or what blacks have to say? It’s all just so ............... boring.
I'm in Arkansas and it's the same here. They just can't accept that people care about children (and adults) no matter their race/color!
It's about LOVING and caring for people and not about RACE! Everything is NOT ABOUT RACE!
Mean Ol' Mr. Drummond made 'em both turn to crime!
I would like to thank what this film was about to me. The Moms that take care of the babies and the children, no matter where they come from. Those Moms and parents never get thanked. She then thanked her mom who reminded her daughters that "there is no race , religion or no class system no color, nothing. no sexual orientation that makes us better than anyone else. Were all deserving of love!"
The whole article.
Idiot! See posts 11 and 17
There is no need to call people on here an idiot, smart*ss!
Exactly, we had a foster child whose mother was blond haired blue eyed American and whose father was a very dark skinned Central American. The baby was classified bi-racial. We had him almost two years and wanted to adopt, but were told that some association of Black and Hispanic social workers would oppose us at every step. He had to be placed in a Hispanic home to uphold his cultural ties. He loved us and we him. We were the only family he knew from 6 weeks until almost 2 years of age. He called us Mommy and Daddy. In the end the mother decided not to surrender and custody was returned to her.
Did I mention she was a crack addict and had used during her pregnancy? He was born addicted! Her “rights” and the cultural backgound of his imprisoned and then deported illegal immigrant father mattered more to the system than that poor child did.

Yes, I realize that now. My apologies.
At least you pointed out my mistake in a nice way.

No thanks, troublemaker...
Everything is racism....
"Some called it patronizing and contrived to think that a white family would be so altruistic"
...except hating whitey
We are far too altruistic - by which I mean “guilted” into giving unearned benefits to utterly unworthy people.
My sincere condolences on the loss your child suffered through “the system”.

OMG.... what is your problem?? LOL You really had to dig for those, didn’t ya? Oh yes, I have a long history of trouble making.... LOL
Seriously, I wouldn’t have jumped on you like I did, but the author of this very article has been pinged to this thread... and now guess what, he will now come here and see his very large picture posted with a ridiculous mocking statement underneath (not to mention all of the other boob posts from other folks)... The situation doesn’t reflect well on FR and the brain power here... sorry.
How about you back off...now.
I’ll have the post I posted removed but you back off.
