I know that you Black people don't like racism or racist people, but that's not what's important right now.

What's important is that a lot of white people *do* like them!

And when you read racists' own horrible words back to them, it gives a lot of these other white people sad feelings!

I know that you Black people prefer Bruce Lee. Especially Black people in Los Angeles and San Francisco and Oakland and Berkeley.

But again, this isn't about you.

I know that Bruce Lee used his martial arts and movie stardom to work *with* Black civil rights leaders, and to amplify their causes, and that this made him very popular with Black people all over the world.

But again, this isn't about you.

Stop being selfish!
