“In a manner akin to the influence of Tiger Woods on the other side of the Atlantic, Thierry Henry has helped kick down a few of the remaining bigoted stereotypes. Through his undisputable class and dignity, Henry has made a deep-seated difference to race relations in this country. Racism will flounder whenever white children grow up with a black man as their hero. That so few comment on Henry's colour is a silent tribute to his impact.” MenChildrenMadeCountryGrowsSidesBlackDifferencesWhiteRaceClassGrowing UpInfluenceFootballHeroRacismDignityRelationImpactSilentWoodsSoccerAnalysisKicksColourCommentStereotypeTigersRace RelationsTribute Author:Pete Gill

“I don't want to see trickle down racism. I don't want to see a president of the United States saying things which change the character of the generations of Americans that are following. Presidents have an impact on the nature of our nature. And trickle down racism, trickle down bigotry, and trickle down misogyny, all these extraordinarily dangerous to the heart and character of America.” WantHeartStatesCharacterAmericaPresidentUnitedUnited StatesGenerationsDangerousRacismImpactFollowingBigotryMisogynyTrickle Down Author:Mitt Romney

“I mean, let's face it, it's 2000 and people are beginning to wake up on some level. I think that, as I was saying earlier, there's just no denying the impact that showing people the truth can have. It allows people to understand themselves, and when you understand yourself you can understand the people around you. And then you can begin to let go of all the bullshit that leads into things like world wars, racism, stereotypes, and bigotry.” PeopleThinkingWorldMeanWarFacesLevelsLetting GoRacismWake UpImpactWar Of The WorldsBigotryBullshitStereotype Author:Gale Harold
“I've certainly experienced racism, but it has not made a great impact on me. I have always thought, as I got older and older, I was more in charge of who I was. What someone thought about me or said about me made less of an impression on me at very vulnerable times.” MadeSaidRacismImpactImpressionVulnerableRacist Author:Robert Guillaume
“Sure, there's a chunk of African-Americans out there who associate the Republican Party with racism, frankly particularly in the Deep South. It's an unfair perception, but it exists. Over a period time, that perception will die away if Republicans are focusing on issues that happen to impact African-Americans.” IfsHappensDiesPartyIssuesPeriodsRepublicanPerceptionRacismImpactSouthAfrican AmericanUnfairAssociatesRepublican PartyChunks Author:Artur Davis
