By James Turnage, author of “The Holiday Killer”

Some of you may remember Jemele Hill. She is a black journalist who was a frequent panelist on ESPN’s “The Sports Reporters.” After she called Donald Trump a racist, she was unfairly fired from her own show, simply for doing what few legitimate journalists have the courage to do; tell the truth.

She recently wrote an essay for “The Atlantic,” suggesting that black athletes should consider boycotting  or transferring from colleges and universities who display racial tendencies and attend predominately black universities. In other words, hit them where it hurts; in their wallets.

Well known white nationalist, Laura Ingraham, invited New England Patriots tight end, Benjamin Watson, to discuss the article on her poorly rated show on Fox Noise. Just minutes into the interview, Ingraham was blindsided. Watson revealed his support for Ms. Hill’s suggestion.

“She had some great points in that article,” Watson told Ingraham.

“What [Hill] was saying was simply, if we are trying to pump money and revenue into some of these communities that there is still this big disparity, this may be a way to do it,” Watson continued. “Obviously that’s in a vacuum, there are other factors that figure into that, but when you read her argument, she lays it out very cleanly and it’s actually something that I agree with.”

Proving that she is another ignorant  and privileged white woman on the whitest fake news network in America. She either ignored the fact that he is well-educated or underestimated Mr. Watson’s ability to think intelligently.

Ingraham told Watson that his alma mater, Duke University, would “have not been thrilled at you not being there” and that “college sports would certainly be a lot different today if we went down a color-coded way of figuring out college admissions. That’s re-segregating the country. Why do we want that?”

“Segregation, as you know, is government-mandated. This is not segregation. If you read the article,” Watson corrected Ingraham, before she cut him off.

“I read the article. I read the article. All right, we got to go,” she said.

Over the last several months Ingraham has lost multiple sponsors as she continues to support Trump’s efforts to ban all Muslims, and deport all Hispanics. She continues to complain about the “mistreatment of whites” in America. Another woman of white privilege in denial about her advantages in America.

It’s time for all Americans to face reality and respect the facts. Pure whites are disappearing in America. Diversity is growing faster than expected by sociologists. Mixed marriages and mixed unions between races are commonplace. America is becoming a more colorful and more beautiful nation whether Republicans and their propaganda machine, Fox Noise, like it or not.

Tell everyone; “the truth lives here.”
