i saw this black guy in the airport in chicago. he had a t-shirt on that said "i love my people" and it had a red & green africa continent in the background.
i think its great that he loves his people. does the t-shirt imply that he does not love people that are not "his people"? i dont know...guess it depends. probably more likely just a guy taking pride in his race and heritage than a guy being a racist.
it made me wonder though...what if a white guy wore a t-shirt that said "i love my people" and it had a map of europe in the background? would he be looked at in the same way? maybe but probably not. and, if it were a white guy with the state of mississippi in the background, you can be sure he'd be labeled a racist.
anyway...just some deep thoughts from blue edwards.
