Watching the interview, Morgan Freeman comes off as much less of a tom than he does in the news articles. He has a joking tone- noting that there's no one month they talk about white history. He's trying to imply it's talked about all the time. I like how they selected the most 'white friendly' excerpts. They didn't talk about how he felt that the Mississippi flag would never represent him or how he mocked the "some of my best friends are X" crap. No, what gets the headlines are a poor choice of words. I blame the white supremacist capitalist patriarchy.
