REWIND : I can remember catching an advertisement on Charles Barkley’s twitter handle about “White Privilege In America” in early May 2017 which flashed into Charles Barkley honing in on topics such as police and race relations, Muslims in America, immigration issues and Hollywood stereotyping. Sitting next to Mr. Barkley was an attorney named Gerald Griggs

Now this happens to be 4 months before the terrible Racism endorsed terrorism and real time news broke in Charlottesville , VA all live on Twitter.
