This article makes a lot of sense, because it brought to light many opinions, I never thought about or related to slavery or the present. For example, the Penn State coach, White middle aged man in a position of power, just as in slavery times.
I'm sad that this is still going on today. Weird old white men just doing really perverse things. And it's also weird that the coach produced so many good players but was such a perverse person. Polar?
I agree with John. But more so this article saddens me. It's sad that this is still occuring, and probably will never cease. Simply because I do think about the children that are molested by authority figures that they trust and value the relationships they have with them.
