Mr Rutledge,
I too am a black official, was raised in a black community, and educated in a black educational institution. I applaud your willingness to speak openly and honestly about these issues. But I still respectfully disagree with you and here's the reason why. There is nothing wrong with seeing the world as "black and white" as long as you do not allow your views of "black and/or white" to offend, harm, or place at an unfair disadvantage as a result of your views. You must be very careful when you allow your personal bias's to influence a situation like this. Without a doubt, the best way to deal with this situation is to handle it in a professional manner and leave your personal bias out of the situation. Easier said than done you might think but I think how you handle this situation is what separates the men from the boys--the professional from the amateur--wisdom from foolish--right from wrong.
