White People Think One Black Person's Success Proves Racism Is Over
Email rebecca.hiscott@huffingtonpost.com - she's the caucasian woman that wrote the article for their business section and either she or her editor(s) gave the headline to the article.
Not bravenak.
Now that said - the email should probably read: Dear Ms. Hiscott - stop race baiting. If a white person - which you are - wrote something like that about blacks . . .
Sorry - my intent is not snark - but your brought up a REALLY GOOD POINT :highfive: with your post. Why DID a white woman get away with this article at Huffpo? In their business section to boot?
