"The white student who killed a black homeless man ...." The sentence could also be written with out reference to color. Skin color and race do not appear to have any relevant factual bearing in this case and only matter to racists and those intent on keeping society divided along racial lines. Meanwhile the news about five Memphis police officers (each black) beating a man (black) who ultimately died as a direct result of the assault barely made the news because.......the assaulters and the victim are black. I hate ad hominem broadsides but this all reminds me of someone (white, male, liberal) I volunteer with who occasionally will tell an anecdote as part of our daily conversion. Often times he'll mention the race of a person (always black) and yet the race never has relevance. WTF?
