seems like ol Al, and the naacp have the same agenda..

Donald Sterling's donations to NAACP led to latest award

LOS ANGELES -- Donald Sterling donated money for years to the Los Angeles chapter of the NAACP, which honored the Clippers owner with a lifetime achievement award in 2009 and was planning to present him another in May until the controversy broke over his racially insensitive comments that went public over the weekend.

Sterling's award from the NAACP in 2009 came just before he agreed to pay a $2.765 million settlement in a case that alleged he discriminated against African Americans, Latinos and others at apartment buildings he owned in Los Angeles County.

and when Ol al said on his show it is all about the money,.. and that he was going to follow the money.. I laughed ,,as that was about the first honest thing he has ever said..

The controversy throws a light on the organization's longtime relationship with Sterling, who is no stranger to lurid racially charged headlines. Though Jenkins never defended Sterling, he has had to defend his organization's relationship with him given past lawsuits against Sterling from the U.S. Department Justice for housing discrimination and from former Clippers General Manager Elgin Baylor for age and racial discrimination.

"There is a personal, economic, and social price that Mr. Sterling must pay for his attempt to turn the clock back on race relations," Jenkins said on Monday. "If these statements are not who Mr. Sterling is, then he should spend a sufficient amount of time necessary in the African-American community to prove that he is not the person those words portray him to be or suggest he may be."

really,.. you can buy (or spend enough) not to be a racist..
