So don’t even open the bookstore? Pathetic.
No wonder more black Americans don’t join FR.
I agree. This forum gets racist at times.
At least she was able to open the book store. Imagine a white person dedicating their business to all white clientele, written and illustrated by WHITE, underrepresented authors and illustrators, which would have been burned down opening day, IF the city even allowed it to open in the first place. THIS is the problem, not racism. I am betting this gal got minority SBA money as a starter, NAACP, community outreach funding, etc. Think there are any programs for WHITE people wanting to open a racist business?

Yes.
It is FReeper's fault that blacks have low literacy rates and businesses that ignore that fact are likely to fail.
We need to do better.
Prove what I said was not true.
1. The store was targeting a small subset of the population. Not only real book readers (as opposed to people who read digital books).
2. The literacy rates for blacks are below the national average. A lot of black culture promotes that becoming educated is whiteness and should be avoided.
3. It is in the democrat party interests to keep blacks uneducated so they don’t know how or won’t get off the plantation. I believe it would be in the interests of our society to have blacks (and all Americans) better educated (not indoctrinated), so I all for blacks reading.
4. I can’t recall the last time I saw a black in a public place reading a book. I actually notice people reading books in public as it’s such a rare occurrence, as opposed to having their nose buried in a phone.
So exactly what racist thing did I post?
