Basketball legend Kareem Abdul-Jabbar said Sunday that white Americans so disregard the ongoing existence of racism that they’re more likely to believe in ghosts.
“More whites believe in ghosts than believe in racism,” Abdul-Jabbar, a former center for the Los Angeles Lakers, told ABC News’ George Stephanopoulos on Sunday. ”That’s why we have shows like Ghostbusters and don’t have shows like Racistbuster. You know, it’s something that’s still part of our culture and people hold on to some of these ideas and practices just out of habit and saying that, well, that’s the way it always was. But things have to change.”

So Abdul-Jabbar is an expert on White people and Ghosts and Racism?
I guess all that experience playing basketball taught him much knowledge..............
I do believe in spooks. I do believe in spooks. I do, I do, I do, I do, I do believe in spooks.
Yeah, Kareem, because whites believe Ghostbusters is real. I think I just got a little stupider after reading that. He makes V Stiviano sound like Plato.
If one were watching the news, it would be apparent that slavery is practiced to this very day.
By Africans.
Lew was always confused
As long as Kareem understands racism comes from all groups and not just whites.
So what. I’d bet that more blacks believe in racism than they do in the divinity of Jesus Christ. Now, that’s the “man bites dog” story!
