I think that the issue is brought into focus when "racial cowardice" is mentioned.
It's confrontational but that is sometimes the only way to bring a need conversation into focus. I see it as a fact stated. Many Americans have avoided race relations for years despite
King, Malcolm, Stokely, et. al. I have no problem with the name.

Why should we "make nice" on this issue after years of bloody slavery and prejudice?

I think there are some guilty consciences at work here. Lets really talk about it. That was Holder's motivation.
