Jamie Foxx (an actor who I like a lot, I think he is highly talented) did a tribute to Michael Jackson, but in the middle of the tribute he stated, "Michael was ours (Black People) we loved him...we just lent him to you (white people)!"
Was this racist? I think it was! The double standard runs deep! Just imagine a white guy saying that during a meeting for the WET (White Entertainment Television). "You know that Robert D'Niro was ours, we loved him...we just lent him to the black people!" People would be up in arms!
