Montel Williams on Outnumbered: “As long as we don’t ever talk about the issue (of racism), it will never get solved”

This clip is painful to watch. Montel Williams brings up the problem of racism and how the media refuses to talk about it.

Fortunately, this video does an excellent job of summing it all up in a short amount of time using evidence from various disciplines to back up its case.
