I guess a lot depends on your definition of “talented.” Right now, black style is big in show business, but there’s more to life than that.

"Black people are the most talented people in the world"Sure they are. That's why subSaharan Africa never even invented the wheel.

"Had a white person said that about whites........." ...they would have been as big a racist as Jamie Foxx. The white person, however, would have been called out on it.

Foxx is marching with the Black KKK this weekend, celebrating Trayvon Martin’s failed attempt at Knockout.
Just a despicable person. And a racist
