Black Woman Fired by Racists
It doesn't happen often, but even blacks can be discriminated against out of racism:
Joyce Johnson, the former president and CEO of the nonprofit Black Equity Alliance, said its board of directors ousted her after she endorsed Bloomberg in March.
Bloomberg, an independent, could find himself running against Democratic city Comptroller Bill Thompson, who is black.
Johnson said a board member told her "it would not look good" for the president of the BEA to endorse Bloomberg.
BEA, which supports black and poor communities in the city, objected because Bloomberg is "white and Jewish," according to a suit Johnson has filed in Manhattan Supreme Court.
She alleged the organization wants to "thwart, even by unlawful means, if necessary, the re-election of Mayor Bloomberg based on his race."
Here's hoping someone thwarts Bloomie's reelection by lawful means, based on his nanny state authoritarianism.
What was that line about the content of our character?
On a tip from nancz pants.

Seems to me that the ones that scream racism the most and the loudest are themselves the most racist.
