Quote:"Most blacks are unable to speak English well. They cannot conjugate verbs. They have a poor grasp of verb tenses. They have a limited vocabulary. They cannot speak without swearing."

 

You can't just take one sentence and interpret it out of context.  I'm pretty sure that the author is talking about his black clients.  As hard as it might be for people to understand and acknowledge, the statement as it relates to a majority of black prisoners is probably pretty accurate.  Don't turn it around and try to make it say that he meant ALL blacks or MOST blacks in general.  That article is about his experience as a public defender and he's describing his experience with different groups of people.
