Expand I'm curious whether you're an angry black man with a chip on his shoulder or a guilty white boy trying to pump up his self-image by taking his uber original anti-racism agenda to the extreme.

I never wondered if they were friends either. Once again, you're confused. Perhaps you should just go to bed and sleep your bender off? Goodnight... Expand That's a really ridiculous comment. So now beside Yannick and bennett, I'm a racist?

Ancestry is not heritage is not race is not citizenship. My ancestry is German. My heritage is not.

It’s maybe possible the alleged comment was about Africa, and not just being black so he was calling out that aspect clumsily in his tweet Expand That seems likely. Of course African is no more a race than Bostonian is. And making fun of something African is no more racist than making fun of that ridiculous Boston accent.

There are a lot of black people in America who think their heritage is African, even though they've never set foot in Africa. I've known a few. I've also known the African immigrants - people actually from Kenya, Nigeria, South Africa, Ghana, Zimbabwe - who laugh at their ignorance.
