Charles Barkley’s comment are going VIRAL.
“I’m not going to waste my time worrying about these Confederate statues — that’s wasted energy,” he said.
“You know what I’m gonna do? I’m gonna keep doing great things, I’m gonna keep trying to make a difference — number one, in the black community because I’m black — but I’m also going to try to do good things in the world.”
Correct – hate begets hate only if we let it.
According to IJR, Barkley refuses to respond to hate with hate and won’t be “screaming at a neo-Nazi who’s gonna hate me no matter what.”.
“I’ve always ignored them,” Barkley added. “I’m 54 years old. I’ve never thought about those statues a day in my life. I think if you ask most black people to be honest, they haven’t thought a day in their life about those stupid statues.”
“We need to worry about getting our education, we need to stop killing each other, we need to try to find a way to have more economic opportunity and things like that,” Barkley said. “Those things are important and significant.”
