Democrats think a rodeo clown's jokes are racist, Republicans think they are healthy free speech. Democrats think Trayvon Martin was shot for being black, Republicans think he was shot in self-defense because of his thuggish assault on Zimmerman. Republicans think the President should show leadership to counter the violent Rapper culture that leads to murder. Democrats think it is racist to mention the black murder rate. Democrats swoon over Obama's courage in saying if he had a son he'd look like Trayvon. Republicans see it as the lowest form of divisive race baiting.

Are we finally having that honest conversation on race? Will it enable black conservatives to get their voices heard in the public arena? Will decent liberals start to buck the status quo of Democrat failure on race? Is there a place of honest concern on race where caring people can meet?

In a hopeful sign, Juan Williams, who was kicked off the Democrat plantation at NPR for forbidden honest speech and is now a liberal voice at Fox, actually agreed with conservative former Congressman Allen West that black Civil Rights leaders need start helping blacks solve their self-inflicted problems:

Juan Williams responded, "Let me be blunt, where are the civil rights leaders? Why aren't we hearing from the civil rights leaders out there leading marches and protests against violence, against the drug dealers, against the bad schools, saying to young women, 'Hey, this is madness'" ...you know, a blind eye to the drug dealers, a blind eye to the people who tell you 'It's thug life, or no life.'"

The discourse of Racism will go on longer than I will walk this earth. Look at the perversion of the teachings of MLK perpetrated by the political racists of the Progressive Left. There's little difference today between the racist rantings of Wallace, Connors, Eastland, Faubus, or Byrd Democrats all. Today the racism has been reversed and pointed at Whites
 
I'm pretty sure we can agree that white people use far more sunscreen than black folks.
