I remember talking to my friend one time, who’s Black, and he lamented that people only love us when we're dunking a basketball, or tossing around a football, but otherwise, they don't don’t want us living in their neighborhoods.
While I don’t entirely agree with that sentiment (I live in a culturally diverse neighborhood, and we're all very cordial and supportive of one another), I do understand his general feelings. I mean, if you watch most movies about race and social justice, you’ll find a great deal of animosity directed toward Black people.
