Absolutely he is young and extremely talented

I'm so happy for Brady and Tampa Bay.

I am not bitter about Brady, if I hadn't treated Giselle so poorly, she would have stayed.

I know right.... My wife was astounded that she is worth $400 million while he is worth a paltry $200 million

I do not go for Cougars so I am out.

I am wondering how the Patriots feel by letting him go. He is like LeBron. They are not really declining as they get older. Freaks of nature

So if you don't see and consider race in everyday life, you are a racist?

White people in the United States have protection from racial stress. Engaging in conversations about racism may trigger a range of defensive actions, feelings, and behaviors, such as anger, fear, and silence.

 

Although white fragility is not racism, it may contribute to racism by dismissing white domination and racial conditioning. By developing racial stamina, white people can better address racism and strive to become anti-racist.

Domination? Now we're talking. Not sure that this would be considered VJ family friendly however.

 

Makes me wonder, if you pass the one drop test do you get a pass? Always wondered if I had Spanish blood in me.

   As the article says, just engaging in conversation about racism and white privilege seems to trigger a whole range of defensive actions. Hopefully we can get past that.
