i wish america would follow tiger woods' lead when it comes to racism. someone made a stupid, racist comment towards him, they apologize, and he simply says, "it was wrong to say that. you're forgiven. let's move on."
meanwhile, nobody else can let it go. jim brown has to critique tiger for not getting more upset, while golfweek magazine puts a noose on the cover, thinking it will help stimulate healthy discussion.
it seems to me that we'd be closer to seeing racism die if the grace that characterized tiger's response also characterized the people trying tell him how they think he should respond.
i know this is a little simplistic, but i think tiger's response is on the right track. i hope more in the public eye will follow his lead.
