Disturbing News Story from CNN

I just received a disturbing email(below) about a story that will aire on CNN. Please go to the link at the bottom to watch a preview video. You can copy and paste the link in the browser. Did you know that companies in the US have said they would hire a white man with a felony record and no high school education BEFORE they would hire a black man with NO criminal record and a 4-year degree? On July 23 at 9pm and July 24 at 9pm, CNN will premier a series, 'Black in America with Soledad O'Brien' and I personally challenge you to watch it WITH your children, especially your sons, if you have any, uninterrupted. The aforemention statistic and many others will be revealed during the series. I had the privilege of meeting with Soledad O'Brien and actually SEEING this premier on Monday, and what I saw brought tears to my eyes and anguish, frustration, and a sense of helplessness to my soul. On Monday the series will focus on Women and Families and Tuesday is dedicated entirely to the plight of the Black Man in America . I beg and plead with you PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE watch and internalize what you see and hear; no matter HOW disturbing the information revealed...you can (and will) thank me later. Feel free to pass this email on or go here for more information: http://www.cnn.com/SPECIALS/2008/black.in.america/
