Geraldo Rivera Asks Civil Rights Activist "When was last time he visited the ghetto"

“Hey, Leo, when was the last time you were in the ghetto?” Rivera pompously remarked during the exchange.

Quite understandably, Terrell did not appreciate the racist question.

“How dare you say that?” he responded. Then the two men proceeded to yell at one another until Hemmer eventually stepped in to bring things to a visibly-tense close...

I met Terrell before. He is actually really nice and not his bombastic persona.

by Anonymousreply 1April 9, 2021 9:47 PM

BOTH of them are reprehensible. Leo in particular, is trash, calling the black mayor racist because she opined white people do not have the same experiences as black people and will not understand the nuances of crime in the black community?

Do ghettos still exist anymore? Is Jerry Rivers speaking from 1977?

I like Geraldo.

by Anonymousreply 4April 9, 2021 9:54 PM

Well? Did he ever answer the question?

by Anonymousreply 5April 9, 2021 9:54 PM

He's not a Civil Rights Activist, fool/OP. He's a pathetic "Stephen"-type black person.

This asshole would defend Trump not letting him rent an apt if asked to do so.

by Anonymousreply 6April 9, 2021 10:04 PM

Geraldo has always seemed like a racist to me. Lots of Hispanics in LA with the distinctive dots "brown and proud" like he has are racist and trashy. This is why he is on Fox. Also, these types hate black and white and middle eastern people and are usually an embarrassment for better Latinos.

How is that possible? I follow him on Twitter and he comes across as a totally unhinged crackpot.

He retweeted clips of this at least 15 times, like it is his greatest accomplishment in life or something. How can someone go from middle school teacher to attorney to civil rights activist to Trumpiest Trumper who ever Trrrrrruummmped?

R11, I apologize for my reply @ R10. I assumed I was directing it at an a fellow American, to whom it would have applied. There are many, many times I wish I were a Canadian. Cheers.

It's not a "racist question" specifically, although it can be used in a racist context.

It's a question I'd like to ask ever damn white college nitwit SJW who thinks they're campaigning against racism by haranguing their parents and professors about trivial shit.

by Anonymousreply 16April 11, 2021 6:32 PM

I can excuse Rivera here, because his brain is a ghetto.

Funny that this Uncle Tom asshole got all bitchy over this, but the idea that Trump would ever want "his kind" living in his buildings or being in his club, doesn't faze him.

R18 Not unlike BLM co-founder Patrisse Khan-Cullors buying a $1.4 million in remote, semi-rustic Topanga Canyon which is 97% white or Oprah and Megan living in the predominately white Monticeto or the Obamas buying a $11.75 home in the exclusive and lily white Martha's Vineyard!

by Anonymousreply 21April 11, 2021 7:05 PM

No, R19. It isn't the same. If you push a political ideology of a president who believes in white supremacy, it isn't quite the same.

Obama simply living in a predominantly white community isn't the issue. Pushing an ideology where you think he doesn't belong in that community IS the issue.

What’s a black neighborhood exactly?

Blacks with money and whites with money live among the wealthy. It’s not like whites with money are running to live in trailer parks

What's interesting is that white people with $$$ move into "ghetto" neighborhoods and transform them. Look at Harlem, for instance.

What kind of idiot thinks the wealthiest neighborhoods these days are exclusively white? Yeah, I'm sure there are no non-whites living in Silicon Valley where the wealthiest neighborhoods reside.

"White neighborhood" meaning a moneyed neighborhood. All of which are predominantly white.

Were you depressed growing up around all those evil whites R36?

R37, you the irony of people like you? You're just as insufferable and exhausting as the people you mock. That's what's so ridiculous about the people who live and breathe to mock the "woke" thing. They're just as fucking annoying.

The entire right-wing and people like Bill Maher come to mind. The last one is a colossal pussy who makes a point of not bringing on people on the left to challenge him. So when he goes on and on about how sensitive people are, the ugly asshole should hold up a mirror, because he's at the top of list.

r19 I'm sorry... so trying to promote programs, policies and pass laws that help take people out of the ghetto (Obama) means you must try to find a place to live IN the ghetto? Or pushing for reform and accountability in the police departments when they kill unarmed black people (BLM) means you must live IN the ghetto? Or just because you're the first billionaire woman who is black means you must build a dwelling IN the ghetto? Are you a fucking IDIOT, MORON, RETARD or NONCOMPOOP, blinded by your rabid racism?

[Quote] What's interesting is that white people with $$$ move into "ghetto" neighborhoods and transform them. Look at Harlem, for instance.

No, it’s usually middle class whites, pushed out of their own neighborhoods by the moneyed, who then are forced to moved to cheaper areas. Sure they transform the neighborhoods but whether the neighborhoods are made “better” remains debatable.

by Anonymousreply 53April 12, 2021 5:43 PM

Incorrect, R53. They're trust-fund transplant babies who move into low income neighborhoods which are then gentrified. I know people who made a killing in real estate based on that fact,

R51 No one said anyone had to move to a ghetto! It's curious that a self-described Marxist like Patrisse Khan-Cullors co-founder of the BLM went on a home shopping spree snagging 4 high-end homes in the US alone and curious where or how she suddenly became so wealthy leading at least one member of BLM, Hawk Newsom, to call for 'an independent investigation'! She's really part of BLFM Better Life For Me!
