I did look at the whole context of what he said. It's not too complex. Cuban's not a racist. However, if a black kid simply wearing a hoodie makes him uncomfortable the same way an adult white male with a shaved head & tattoos does, then that speaks to a bigger issue. A large portion of white america doesn't understand how uncomfortable it is for a minorities watching ourselves getting murdered by cops on a regular because of stupid stereotypes. It may not be a big issue to you, but I don't know if you been racially profiled before.
No I am saying that I agree with what Dyson has said in this discussion. What he may or may not have said in other discussions is relevant because I am only agreeing with what he has said in this one. Stay on topic.
I am not suggesting anything. There is no hidden meaning in anything I have posted. Take it at face value, stop trying to read between lines that do not exist.
Yes I aware that Smith used Cuban's comments as a springboard for a tangent that ultimately had little to do with the initial topic. Dyson addressed the comments and then provided a historical context for those comments.
