I'm sorry to say but if you think other people are racist against you it's most likely because you are racist yourself. I like Nolan but the man is racist.
Many times, I've experienced racism directed toward me and I'm white. I've also witnessed it being directed toward other races. I was quite aware of it when it was being directed toward myself. It was often up close and personal. But I never would have had the opportunity to have had that experience, or even the awareness of that fact had I been one who isolated myself from people of other races, or avoided interacting with people based primarily on race.
Growing up, I never had a choice of isolating myself from blacks. I was always around a lot of black people and a black lady practically raised me. I loved her.
There are people from all races who are racist. However, I do not believe Nolan is one of them.
I do believe he hates racism. So do I.

I disagree to a point. Do I think he is full blown #BlackLivesMatter or Klan racist, no but different things he has said in his past make me believe their is racism there.
Just a couple of examples:
"Some whitey shot my horses just because he hates to see a black man do good."
"Because I know for a fact that I do not play on the same level as the other coaches around this school play on. I know that. You know it. And people of my color know that."
Like I said earlier, everybody has the right to feel, say and be who they want. That's why I like Nolan, he's not going to be who others think he should be, but what he wants to be.
