Posted in African-Americans, News, Politics, Racism, tagged Biased Media, Gates Gate, Henry Lousi Gates Jr, Racial Profiling on July 27, 2009 | 1 Comment »
I’m filing this one under, someone seriously got it twisted! Dare one ask how this 911 call went from “…Umm, well there were two larger men, one looked kind of Hispanic, but I’m not really sure…” to being two Black males with backpacks. Seriously!
