I reread the thread, which is sometimes good to do, and I think Cyber Wolf has the most insightful comment in it, summarizing Sharpton and Rangel as trying to be the heroic black leaders of the past but failing to address the fact that the past is past.

I listened to Mary Mason on WHAT for 15 minutes just now. This discussion was on incarceration of innocents. I don't think I learned anything at all about black culture. Ms. Mason has annoyed me for many decades now and I won't be further annoyed. LSyc, if you have a point to make about it you are not getting it across by giving out homework assignments.
