    A mortgage company has agreed to pay more than $3.5 million to settle allegations by federal prosecutors that it charged higher interest rates and fees on mortgages to nonwhite borrowers than to whites with similar financial backgrounds, federal officials announced on Tuesday.

    College-educated black men, especially, have struggled relative to their white counterparts in this downturn, according to figures from the Bureau of Labor Statistics. The unemployment rate for black male college graduates 25 and older in 2009 has been nearly twice that of white male college graduates — 8.4 percent compared with 4.4 percent.

    Oh that was 2009, it's over when? Yesterday?

    Lots of progress as been made, I wouldn't deny that - ain't as bad as my parents generation who felt more overt but there's some ways to go. If you want to talk about self sabotage, then I nothing to say but I agree.

    Your kinda making my point for me. The Stop and Frisk, the loans all would have been swept under the rug before I would say even 2000. But at this point the fact that the Mortgage company has to pay that fine, McCarron's mom had to delete that tweet, also that survey if you go back just 5 years the gap would be much larger. Just try saying the word "? " or even "? " on national TV and see what happens to you. They can't do it in a overt fashion in a public venue anymore. The backlash is too harsh.

    Thats why I said they aren't "ALLOWED" to be racist...doesnt mean they aren't. They have to find another way to do it. McCarron's mom can't tweet out "That niggra aint ? , my son is better" so she has to dig at him in another fashion. She can't attack his athletic ability, she can't attack his accomplishments, because Winston's are above reproach. So she has to resort to "covert" racsim.

    Excluded from what? The mother of a player A, who was outshined by player B, got mad and insulted player B. The insults may have had some racial undertones. Why should anyone give a ? ? Explain this to me.

    Race shouldn't be excluded from the factors of what caused her to be salty.

    I think what he's saying is she would have said something stupid no matter who was being interviewed because she was salty AJ McCarron didn't win the Heisman...it just happened to be Jameis Winston she said something stupid about. It was more about the way his accent sounded when he was excited, rightfully so, than him being black. That can never really be proven or not though and the safe bet is that the comment probably did have racial undertones...and that's what most people are rolling with

    Well I can agree with that, but my point was more that the motivating factor probably wasn't race. It was jealousy. There was probably some racial influence in the nature of the insult, but I don't know that the chick wouldn't have put a salty comment out there even if Winston was white.

    That dude won the Heisman and the championship while her son is sitting and home playing Winston on whatever NCAA football game is out at the moment. Her options for insults were already limited. That was pretty much the best she could do. What do you expect from someone acting purely from jealousy?

    I'm sure AJ ain't racist. But don't get it twisted -- "? " flows more freely in white households than "? " does in black households.

    That ? "culture" for crackas in the south.
