...is racist.

This isn't the Bee.

MS NOW anchor Al Sharpton argued President Donald Trump coordinated the upcoming UFC event on the White House lawn because he is nostalgic for a time when fights were staged to entertain slave masters.

Sharpton made his claim during an appearance on Morning Joe on Thursday.

The fact that Al fricking Sharpton is able to have a job on a "news" network is all the proof anyone needs that the state of American journalism is abysmal.

Can someone please find links to all the times Al Sharpton used his platform to decry the exploitation of Joe Lewis, Muhammad Ali, Sugar Ray Leonard, Mike Tyson, Evander Holyfield and every other black heavyweight champ? I think my interwebs are broken

If what I just looked up is correct, there hasn't been a championship bout between 2 white dudes since the late 1950s.

The wife and I were watching a documentary on the Amazon. During the film it was mentioned how the seeds of the Theobroma cacao tree, were used as money. And it was common to buy a slave for a hunerd beans.

He looked like a Keenan Thompson character from an SNL sketch that doesn't get aired until after Weekend Update.

Reverend Al has a relatively long (almost 60 year) history of involvement in boxing.

How is that different?

I figured he would be pissed at how many white dudes are on the card. This is a new and unexpected angle.
