I'm sure one (or more) exists nowadays, but the problem being that only extremists make the news.

I'm pretty sure Morgan Freeman basically means to stop talking about race and stop mentioning it. Basically stop caring and stop labeling or identifying by race. I'll provide a video all about it if you want.
MLK Jr would bang the bejesus out of women, including women who were not his wife. Dude was down with a healthy sex life, if he lived in these times he'd be on the side of live and let live.
Who cares. He was a sexist womanizing douche who cheated on his wife.
Enjoy the advances he made for the rights of African Americans and ignore the rest of him. He wasn't a nice person.

Because that worked so well with slavery and segregation.
If we ignore the racists, maybe they'll go away.

i know what he means.
he's not the first one to say it.
[QUOTE=thisispain;34250965]morgan freeman thinks racism will disappear if we stop talking about. he's a good actor but no-one is infallible.[/QUOTE]
What I thought he meant by that was that we should stop talking about race in general, and just accept each other as humans instead of as black humans and white humans.

yeah that's not very easy when mainstream culture views black people and white people as separate.
that won't disappear if we stop talking about it.

OK
So do you believe that reinforcing the idea that black people are different than white people will help solve the problem?

black people are treated differently. bringing light to that is not the same as reinforcing the idea that black people are different.

Morgan Freeman said that we should just stop treating each other differently, which would solve the problem as you described it.

jesus fuck it's like thisispain is talking to a brick wall
It's a simple concept.
Black people are treated differently than white people.
Stop treating black people differently.
And then there's no racism.

am i looking at this through a bias because I'm black, or is easing the oppression of a whole fucking race, hell, even people who weren't black in some cases, not enough to qualify as a nice person? Douche? There are cases of him being sexist but... come on dude. holy shit. all of my rage.

Yeah, I'm presuming you mean White Anglo-Saxon Atheist. I'm now realizing how much that phrase describes this forum.

You can be a douchebag and an amazing person. He was a bit of both. It doesn't diminish his status as a civil rights champion and an American hero.

I'm wondering if you notice how your ethnic and religious stereotyping is ironic at all

You can leave behind a good legacy while still being a bad person. They're not really mutually exclusive.

Everyone is different, the problem isn't that lots of people treat black people differently it's that they treat them as inferiors
We need to acknowledge and respect cultural differences instead of whitewashing (see what I did there) everyone
saying "treat black people like white people!" it's pretty much just as offensive as anything any other racist can come up with

why didn't someone think of this earlier
while we're at it, let's just stop fighting and have world peace yay

[QUOTE=Judas;34247898]So basically he was too busy with race to work on homosexuality?

Doesn't help the fact he was also a religious man.
