A Conversation with Skip Gates: "My mother hated white people..."
CSPAN/Booknotes ^ | October 1994 | Skip Gates and Bryan Lamb


"LAMB: At one point you had a line in there, something to the effect, "My mother despised white people."

GATES: My mother hated white people.

LAMB: All her life?

GATES: Probably. I didn't know until -- in 1959 we were watching Mike Wallace's documentary called "The Hate that Hate Produced." It was about the Nation of Islam and I couldn't believe -- I mean, Malcolm X was talking about the white man was the devil and standing up in white people's faces and telling them off. It was great...And she loved Malcolm X and she loved what the Muslims were doing..."

of all the things I have read about Gates.. his mother hating "whites".. his "white" wife and reading his daughter's bitterness...

I am glad of one thing... my parents didn't pass hatred or racism down to me.,.. and I never passed any hatred, racism or bitterness down to my children...

I posted his comments awhile ago about his comments about finding out that is is about 50% white, they were revealing.

in line with how Obama felt about his background, stated in his book.
