Dear Editor: I’m writing in response to Barbara Golden’s letter on a perceived racist motive behind the publishing of a article about a UW athlete getting into trouble.
I, like many people in the area, believe that racism is a problem. You can see it in many aspects of our daily lives. However, I find it totally insane that someone would think that there was any racist thought in the publishing of the article about Booker Stanley’s arrest. Change the color of the young man’s skin and you would get the exact same amount of coverage. Any UW athlete, much less a prominent football player, would be treated in the same way.
