On Wednesday and Thursday of last week, GlobalGrind went out of its way to advance The Lyin’ King’s vision of racial harmony. Both pieces received over 30,000 Facebook “likes.” Both opinion pieces established a premise, as fact, that white people can never understand the black condition. Both pieces went out of their way to reinforce that what was on display during Rachel Jeantel’s testimony in the George Zimmerman/Trayvon Martin trial, was not actually what was seen and heard. What makes this worth noting is that this is deliberate balkanization of a segment of America. It seeks to replace justice with self-serving cant.
