"The guy is a racist and profits by it."

Exactly. He's a race baiting self promoting assh*le. He's gone farther than even Jesse ever dared. The pathetic attempts to justify his speeches on here are not convincing me (and evidently a lot of others) any differently. Martin Luther King was a preacher- Mr. Wright mongers hate.

The trail of tears or slavery were not perpetrated by anyone alive today and while they're important to remember they should be put in context to ensure they are understood and never happen again- not to be used as incendiaries to promote division and mistrust- or as excuses for the failures of so many to assimilate themselves within our society and make it (and themselves) successful.

One hand's a fist damning the USA and the other's open seeking a favor from the very same government. And the bleeding hearts here consider it "white" when someone considers this repellent and want to justify Mr. Wright as just "doing his job" as a "preacher".

Sorry, I don't share your guilt and I'm not buying his hatred. The sooner he's off the national stage the better.
