Michael Jordan: "Against All White People"

There was a point in his life when NBA legend Michael Jordan was "against all white people".

These are the words of Jordan in his latest biography, "Michael Jordan: The Life". Apparently, as most African-Americans did, Jordan experienced much prejudice, discrimination, and racism, while residing in North Carolina during the 1970's. 

During this era, the South's sentiment towards African-Americans was more overt than inconspicuous. As Jordan experienced, African-Americans were called niggers, considered inferior, and were the victims of blatant hatred.

This isn't to say that the South no longer harbors its racist views towards African-Americans in 2014, but it is rare that a white girl will call a black boy a nigger to his face (I'm certain whites allude to blacks as niggers in private). Such was the case with Michael when a white girl called him one at school back in '77.

Naturally, as most African-Americans would, Mike became irate at the racial slur and threw a soda can at her.

In any event, Michael expressed to author Roland Lazenby that with the combined presence of the KKK, watching Roots, and the white girl calling him nigger, that he developed the sentiment of being "against all white people".

Now Michael is fathering twins with a white woman.
