Donald Sterling's Plantation Mindset
The Brian Lehrer Show | Apr 28, 2014
Audio allegedly shows LA Clippers owner Donald Sterling making racist statements and describing a worldview where minorities are inferior and he, as owner, "support them and give them food, and clothes, and cars, and houses." Clinton Yates, columnist for The Washington Post and WTOP radio discusses the remarks, the response, and Sterling's long history of discriminatory and predatory business practices.
"I don't think you can say that the NBA tolerated [Sterling] - that's much too mild" says @clintonyates. "Emboldened" is more like it.
