My friend used to subscribe to Time Magazine, but never actually got around to reading most of them, so I'm always picking up old issues whenever I'm at his house. Anyway, I quickly glanced at last August's issue and saw that the cover said, "Hail to the hip-hop President." And I was like, "Holy shit. That's so racist!" . . .
Then I realized it was written under the heading "Haiti," and it was about Wyclef, the famed hip-hop artist, wanting to be President of Haiti, and not about President Obama being called "hip-hop" because he's black. Oops. Who's the racist now?
