This response is exactly what I was thinking: https://twitter.com/fred_connection/status/929715747714158592
The #NYTimes chose to become a forum for racists by publishing that piece. May a once-great news outlet #RIP.

Though the article has the illusion of thoughtfulness, painting all members of one race with one brush is wrong. People, no matter what their ancestry, are individuals. They have individual beliefs and practices, and those are what determines their friendship value. Prejudice (judging people before you get to know them) is still prejudice, even when it comes from Blacks.

For the benefit of people who are not Black, think about the grandparent who says racist things at family gatherings. We have those people too!
