""Everybody is not a victim," Cosby said"
Hey Bill, at 67 years of age it is pretty nice that you are doing this. It's nice that you are pointing these things out.
But, when you were young, making your riches on the TV, just how often did you stand and speak this boldly? As I recall, not often at all. Perhaps you were storing your wealth and keeping quiet b/c you planned to take this offensive this late in life. But, I doubt it. You played a nice family doctor with a 'normal' family. Riggghhhht. And you raked in the dough, bit time.
How many young black men, who are on TV today making millions in sports, are you encouraging to talk NOW about this topic? How many rap stars are you barging in on during their recording sessions, and slamming them for the utter darkness of spirit coming from that filth? And, oh yes, how often do you say out loud that churches and faith can play a huge role in fixing this mess?
But we don't hear of these kinds of creative tactics on your part. Now, you are just pointing your finger, and pointing out that its a mess and saying people should 'grow up'. I offer you this suggestion: get a HECK OF A LOT MORE RADICAL THAN THIS. After all, you are not getting any younger.
You see my point Bill: TV, being sold out to TV is the key. You have little to lose, now, by leveraging that point.
Well over $25 million in donations to Black Colleges...now he's putting his mouth where his money is.
He kinda was. His work (The Cosby Show, Ghost Dad) portrayed blacks as successful people.
