According to Eric Holder....he said today...
In a speech marking Black History Month, Attorney General Eric H. Holder Jr. on Wednesday labeled the United States “essentially a nation of cowards” when it comes to race relations.
Mr. Holder, the first black attorney general, told Justice Department employees that “this nation has still not come to grips with its racial past” and suggested Black History Month could be used to spark more candid discussion of racial issues.
“This will be, at first, a process that is both awkward and painful, but the rewards are, I believe, potentially great,” Mr. Holder said. “The alternative is to allow to continue the polite, restrained mixing that now passes as meaningful interaction but that in reality accomplishes very little.”
Mr. Holder noted that increased dialogue would help advance what should be “nuanced, principled and spirited” debate on topics such as affirmative action.

Some pour soles are complaining that Black History was given the shortest month!Holder: US is nation of cowards on racial matters
Holder needs to splain to his own peeps about being racists and blaming causasians for their failures in life
I do not need a jive assed (SSMF’er) as holder, to tell me a damn thing in life.
Holder should tell his own people(to whom the brim fits) to man/woman-up, stop acting like victims, discard their hyphenated name(aa) and become an American, first last &always.
To hell with holder and his mammy.

There, I fixed it for you.
I made a comment to the Wife shortly after the election that we would endure four years of Black History Month.
I have no reason to believe Eric Holder is interested in a conversation, but a lecture. I recall during the Monica Presidency a "dialogue on race" conducted by some black historian. Those who dared to disagree with his viewpoint were roundly denounced as the racists and Uncle Toms they "were."
There's a special coming up on CNBC..."NEWBOs...The Rise of America's New Black Overclass."
I've found a mindset on the part of some members of this so-called "Overclass" that is racist and repugnant.
