"protesters who alleged the debate was racist, bigoted and harming progress of race relations."

Give it a day and these same protesters will be screaming that absolutely no progress has been made in race relations. Mass incarceration, they'll argue, is modern slavery; and police shootings, they'll argue, is modern lynching.

So which is it protesters: whites can't speak because they may ruin the valuable progress made in race relations or there has been no progress made in race relations? Make up your mind because you're bipolar on race issues.
