Mitch Albom on LeBron

In Mitch Albom’s point on his LeBron James segment is that why is it whenever an African American is involved is the racial card thrown. It seems like every time someone with a different skin color is in the spot light, a person always brings up something about their skin color. In this case the reporter says "Do you think there's a role that race plays in this?"
            I agree with Albom is his segment because I also think that people need to stop thinking so racial about everything. Everyone is created equal. We shouldn’t judge people just because of their skin color.
            In my opinion Albom’s best part of his whole segment is when he writes “Why not look at the facts

without color?” Then he changes LeBron’s name to Leo. This shows that no matter whom it is, how their

names spelled, how good they are, etc. Everyone is equal. This also shows how creative Mitch Albom is in

his writing’s. He puts his own touch of style to the paper to show his readers what the news is all about

  1. I agree Kris. He makes a great point when he changes LeBron's name to Leo. Who would even think that Leo was black and consider the events that happened to him based on racism?
