This white lady from Glenn Beck’s TV channel is mad as hell about the ‘very black’ BET Awards
Not The Onion!
http://www.rawstory.com/2016/06/this-white-lady-from-glenn-becks-tv-channel-is-mad-as-hell-about-the-very-black-bet-awards/
Tomi Lahren, who is a conservative host at Glenn Beck’s The Blaze TV, expressed anger this week after actor Jesse Williams spoke at the BET Awards about ending racism....
During the “Final Thoughts” segment of Lahren’s The Blaze program on Monday, she lashed out at Williams.
“The BET Awards were last night, notably they were very black,” she opined. “Oh, but can I say that? What with my whiteness and all? Well, too damn bad.”...
“The term unarmed black man may be literally accurate, but it doesn’t tell the whole story in most cases,” she insisted. “In a number of cases, if the victim ended up being unarmed, it was certainly not for a lack of trying.”
