The New York Times > Sports > Other Sports > Sports Media and Business: Seeking Forgiveness for 'Unforgivable Blackness'
Will the Times put in a "correction" too? I saw a big hunk of the show last night and was impressed. Far better than the usual long-winded, but too brief look at things. I'm not sure that Burns' obsession about race helps any sort of reconcilliation, but they do make interesting movies.
The reason I argue that is if there is really no difference between the races, then why keep pointing them out? Is it history? Or something more of the gut?
