No. "America" does not have far to go; lawless hoodrats/inner-city thugs stuck on the Democrat and Government "gimmedat" plantation have far to go.
I notice Col. West, Thomas Sowell, Justice Thomas (SCOTUS) have seemed to go "far" all on their own; but I guess they are not "black enough" for this rather well fed woman.

“On race, America has far to go”

To get to where? Where no other nation is?

Minorities think this place sucks so bad, then go somewhere where the people there will give even less f*cks that your ancestor you cant even name was a slave.

Funny how blacks never seem to have any responsibility in ‘race relations’

Farai Chideya is part of the precipitate ...

Because she sure as heck isn't part of the solution.

"Black America" needs to get the chip off its collective shoulder, quit living as a parasite class, get off its collective duff and EARN a living.

"I grew to understand what the 50s were actually like in Baltimore, when my mother, for example, was permitted to buy clothes from the major department store but not try them on. "

It hasn't been the '50s for a long time. Get over the poor victim crap already.

I think she’s on to something there. Like, in my neighborhood, I’m always counseling the white boy thugs. I tell them to stop wearing their pants down below their underwear. I tell them to stop stealing Swisher Sweets and for goodness sakes stop punching the cops. But they just don’t listen! Land sakes alive!

"But the police killing, last week, of Michael Brown, an unarmed black teen in Ferguson has sparked national protests because it represents a specific type of racialisation."

Dear Author Farai Chideya, you are full of it. Unarmed black teen - you do not know the circumstances of the shooting. The witness that the media has run with, turns out to be Brown's accomplice in the strong arm robbery. He's a thug and a liar. A friend of the officer involved says that Big Mike, the gentle giant after one assault on the officer, was racing toward the officer to attack him again. Trayvon Martin first name was changed to "unarmed teenager", even though he was using his fists to beak a guys head into the cement.

But all the facts have not come out, your piece is BS and you're prejudiced. You've prejudged this case and made wild assumptions and implications of how this somehow affects the entire US of A.

In my opinion, this propaganda in the Brown case is about agitating the Black population in order to get them to come out and vote in November. That's my opinion and I think I can back it better than you can back up your drivel.

All of these police shootings of young Black men would stop immediately, if young Black men gave up their criminal activity. How about that for a solution? Otherwise what, give young Black men a free pass to commit crimes?

America has gone far enough!

“Minorities” need to get with the program and stop seeing white people as their only paycheck option.

I don’t see much pride in Black Pride when the only thing blacks seem to do is hold their hand out for whites to put something in it.

There are thugs and slackers in all American cultures and ethnic groups. Ferguson far exceeds it’s quota.

Would it surprise anyone that the condeming evidence is going to come out from that store security video that showed that the person who was shot that caused all the rioting was robbing that store?

This will become an open and shut case.

She's too young to know what things were like back in the day when black people had few educational and job opportunities, when black people had to use separate waiting rooms at train or bus stations, separate drinking fountains and often couldn't use public restrooms. Blacks were systematically barred from owning a home or renting in predominantly white neighborhoods. A black man could be lynched for just looking directly at a white woman. We had come quite far from the old days.

Then Obama and his accomplices came along. The man hailed as the great unifier of the races has split them apart. Of course, this division is intentional. Obama and those like him feel that everything wrong in their lives is the result of those evil rich white folks and they are deliberately seeking their revenge against white people for all grievances, real or imagined.

Modern segregation and the lack of jobs for blacks is far more a result of black behavior than anything else. The 30 percent of Ferguson residents that are white will soon be leaving, and what will be left are run down properties, closed businesses, and black depravity. I might also add that blacks who are worth their salt will be getting the hell out of there to.
