Donald Sterling on race, Magic & the NBA

Donald Sterling speaks exclusively with CNN's Anderson Cooper about Magic Johnson, racism, and the NBA.

[@demontredugger]

Joe Tripp If you're not a racist, then u wouldn't have to announce that you're not. Sterling wouldn't have to try defend himself if he didn't caught being racist. Nothings illogical about it. Every person that gets caught being racist, tries to wiggle around the fact that they are racist. If they're not then they have no need to be accused to or have to announce to people that they're not

I am a young urban African American and what he said about blacks not helping blacks and Johnson are 100% True. Like it or not I don't think that was offensive in anyway.

[@nonplayerzealot4]

You're an urban idiot. The other twats you see in front of a liquor store drinking foty's are the ones who don't help other blacks. Earvin Johnson has raised millions for HIV research for over 20 yrs if nothing else. You will never accomplish anything even remotely altruistic. If you do anything else but post on YT all day, it wouldn't even be a surprise.

[@KampaignGlobal]

nonplayerzealot4 Earvin Johnson Has a Foundation just like every other athlete or entertainer which is mostly used as a tax write off. Rarely ever comes from the heart You stated 'Earvin Johnson Has raised millions for HIV" which maybe true but Sterling "Gives Away Millions Every year Of his own Personal Money" he doesn't need a foundation for that.

As a Black American Man, his views is how society view us as a whole. And when you look at our circumstances, its easy for any non-black person to view us the way they do. We make up 13% percent of the population, but 60%-70% of the prison population and roughly 70% of us are poor or live in poverty. And when you turn on the T.V, these Black reality shows make us look more and more as fools. I disagree with some of the things he said, but to bash him like over and over?? dude get real. If we, Blacks, get tired of seeing stuff like this, then make a change, stop bashing each other, stop remainig emotional 24/7, and stop glorrifying in things that will make us look bad as a whole. Sterling was once said to have a slave mentality, I can see that...but look at the Stock Market, the prison system is on the stock market and people just like Sterling are investing millions in the prison stock....investing money in Negros!!??? WOW. Statistics show 1 in every 3 black boys will go to prison. People yall need to wake the hell up. At the end of the day, Sterling deserves what he deserves but blacks give him a reason to feel the way he feels.
