I was listening to the Gayle King show with the interview of Henry Gates. I couldn't believe my ears. He said he wanted HBO or PBS to offer him a deal to do a documentary on racial profiling. I said "o my God, I can't believe this.
Now it seems to me that he had dollar signs in his eyes when this happened. He knew he could capitalize on this situation. That's why he ratcheted it up a bit. He has really lost some creditability. I have been reading a lot of blogs. Some of them were from Harvard.
Now he is making the rounds of the circuit and will get many speaking engagements. It seems that now I classify him along with Jackson and Sharpton. I am really disappointed. I really looked up to him.
