NY Times reporter accuses white women of racism on city sidewalks
In a Wednesday essay titled "Was That Racist," reporter Greg Howard singled out white women for forcing him "off the sidewalk completely" when walking toward him, not allowing a straight path.
"In seven years of living and walking here, I’ve found that most people walk courteously — but that white women, at least when I’m in their path, do not," Howard writes.

Some points of comment.
A) The thread title I wrote was provocative, partially true and definitely written to get your attention as was the story's HEADLINE! I wanted to show how in this 5 second attention span age the biased MSM does present the headlines with most emphasis on the hot words..."racism".etc. hot words to get your eyeballs.
B) Note NO MENTION of black women in the article. Why? is it because:
C) Are most black men not gentlemen, i.e. if you see a black man walking toward you you should step aside if you are a woman, especially a white woman?
D) Finally just what are the rules i.e. should I as a white man expect the OLDER black man to alter his path?
In reality, I think MOST people follow the rules their parents taught them:
"if you are walking down the street and a woman or older man is in your path, you step aside".
No it was a simple rule..."Respect women and your elders in all aspects"!
That simple rule of a civilized family was how I was raised...not based on skin color.

B) Note NO MENTION of black women in the article. Why? is it because:
- He doesn't pay any attention to black women?
- Black women are deferential to black men?
- Black women are more afraid of black men?

In reality, I think MOST people follow the rules their parents taught them:
- If a woman is in your path you as a male step aside.
- If a man is in your path and you are the younger male, you step aside.
