As a “White privileged” Euro-Caucasian, I feel so guilty, sad, and angry at my race for obviously “keeping down” LeBron, and preventing him from becoming a successful black man and a multi-millionaire because of “racism.”

LeBron who?

I think H (science denier) nailed it.
Ignorant and outspoken dumb-ass celebrities like LeBron should be ridiculed, mocked and minimized.

Mr. James is semi-literate. He has exactly the world view, opinions, vocabulary, and capacity to reason that anyone would have who had spent the vast majority of his life running back and forth in a rather small rectangle trying to place a rubber ball through a hoop. And all of this just to get acclaim and money from all those rich white folks gawking at him in the stands.
He is famous because he can run and jump. So can an antelope.

Lebron is an excellent basketball player, but if is true raw concern is for promoting black life, then he knows nothing about problem solving. If we were to take all emotion out of the cause of black deaths and simply treated it as a statistical problem, like a good business manager would, then we would use a Pareto chart to show us all of the major causes of black deaths, then rank them by the most common to the least common. The most common causes would be the ones a good manager would try to resolve first to reduce black deaths by the greatest amount. Without data I would still be willing to bet a Ben Franklin that gang violence, drug use, alcohol abuse, cigarette smoking, abortion and self-induced heart disease and diabetes from poor eating habits all far outweigh deaths from justified and non-justified police shootings.

Who Am I? by Carl Sandburg
My head knocks against the stars.
My feet are on the hilltops.
My finger-tips are in the valleys and shores of universal life.
Down in the sounding foam of primal things I reach my hands and play with pebbles of destiny.
I have been to hell and back many times.
I know all about heaven, for I have talked with God.
I dabble in the blood and guts of the terrible.
I know the passionate seizure of beauty
And the marvelous rebellion of man at all signs reading “Keep Off.”
My name is Truth and I am the most elusive captive in the universe.
Duty, Beauty, Liberty, Country, Honor, Family, Faith — Plus a few simple easy to follow rules for guys
Men saw the stars at the edge of the sea
They thought great thoughts about liberty
Poets wrote down words that did fit
Writers wrote books
Thinkers thought about it
Take it where you find it
Can’t leave it alone
You will find a purpose
To carry it on
Mainly when you find it
Your heart will be strong
About it
Many’s the road I have walked upon
Many’s the hour between dusk and dawn
Many’s the time
Many’s the mile
I see it all now
Through the eyes of a child
Take it where you find it
Can’t leave it alone
You will find a purpose
To carry it on
Mainly when you find it
Your heart will be strong
About it
[Chorus]
Lost dreams and found dreams
In America
In America
In America
Lost dreams and found dreams
In America
In America
In America
And close your eyes
Leave it all for a while
Leave the world
And your worries behind
You will build on whatever is real
And wake up each day
To a new waking dream
Take it where you find it
Can’t leave it alone
You will find a purpose
To carry it on
Mainly when you find it
Your heart will be strong
About it
[Chorus]
Change, change come over
Change come over
Talkin’ about a change
Change, change
Change come over, now
Change, change, change come over
I’m gonna walk down the street
Until I see
My shining light
I’m gonna walk down the street
Until I see
My shining light
I’m gonna walk down the street
Until I see
My shining light
I’m gonna walk down the street
Until I see
My shining light
I see my light
See my light
See my shining light
I see my light
See my light
See my shining light
