Man's inhumanity to man is as old as humanity itself. Some people just do evil things. Most do not.

The billion are not. I choose to write for the billion. ↗

The enormous success of 2009's 'The Blind Side,' in which Sandra Bullock makes a black teenager one of the family, demonstrates that America isn't post-racial. It is thoroughly mired in race - the myths that surround it, the guilt it inspires, the discomfort it causes, the struggle to transcend it. ↗
