Reverse discrimination (Black committing racist actions against a White) is alive and socially acceptable here in Jacksonville Florida. Just listen to the Black community and the Black leadership as they openly speak out against Tony Boselli on local AM radio and television stations.

Recently the Tony Boselli Foundation http://www.bosellifoundation.com/
renovated a dilapidated recreation center building (Simon Johnson Community Center), once maintained and funded by the City of Jacksonville on Moncrief Road near Golfair Boulevard. This is an area of Jacksonville Florida where half the murders and other violent crimes are committed. The recreation center was completely renovated by private funds. The agreement made by the city was that the Tony Boselli Foundation would privately lease & operate the Community Center building. The date, the city council has yet made the official decision of who is going to operate the community center. The official vote is scheduled this evening (27 Nov. 2007).
The Black community and the Black leadership are making very personal attacks against Tony Boselli merely because of his skin colour. I strongly suspected this would be an issue from the cast of characters who are always in the news and their association to Rep. Corrine Brown. http://www.house.gov/corrinebrown/

Try that as a local white councilman in a predominately white district making a comment like that about a black individual trying to perform a good community deed. Jessie Jackson and Al Sharpton would be all over the media outlets screaming blood murder and racing to find the quickest jet to Jacksonville Florida to organize protest on the downtown streets.
The original critic councilwoman Denise Lee http://www.coj.net/City+Council/District+8/D08ContactInformation.htm
has been quite for the past two weeks but she has sent out her legion of race baiters to protest against Tony Boselli.
Pastor Jeremiah Robinson was just quoted "We don't need a white guy coming in to run this. It says we don't know how to run things. We don't know how to do it". Well yes it does, Pastor Jeremiah. It obliviously shows that your community and the Black leadership is an absolute failure.
In his own defense Pastor Jeremiah Robinson claims "I'm not racist because I'm a pastor”. Well sir according to the American Heritage Dictionary you are a racist.
Racism
· The belief that race accounts for differences in human character or ability and that a particular race is superior to others.
· Discrimination or prejudice based on race.
Religion, social position, or one’s own race does not give immunity to the real title of your self.
If there was a dictionary written in ‘Ebonics’, would that help you understand the printed words? Also speaking business English would not hurt you any.
I respect your tenacity Tony in your pursuit for the control of the community center. I believe that a community that will sacrifice safety and learning enhancements to their own children just because of the Philanthropist’s skin colour is a lost community.
I personally would take my efforts to someone else who wants help.
