Thomas Sowell: ‘Are race riots not news?’

From our “They told me if you voted for John McCain, blacks would riot in the streets — and they were RIGHT!” files…

Thomas Sowell writes:

When I first saw a book with the title, “White Girl Bleed A Lot” by Colin Flaherty, I instantly knew what it was about, even though I had not seen the book reviewed anywhere, and knew nothing about the author. (…)

That phrase was spoken by a member of a mob of young blacks who attacked whites at random at a Fourth of July celebration in Milwaukee last year. What I was appalled to learn, in the course of my research, was that such race riots have occurred in other cities across the United States in recent years – and that the national mainstream media usually ignore these riots. (…)

Reading Colin Flaherty’s book made painfully clear to me that the magnitude of this problem is even greater than I had discovered from my own research. (…)

Flaherty’s previous writings have won him praise and awards, but this book has been met largely with silence or abuse.
