Its not race, Lebron James, but it might be you

Mitch Albom's point in writing this column is to prove to people that race should not play a role in the criticism of Lebron James. He is trying to show people that just because Lebron is African American does not mean that the bad things that people say about his is racism. I agree with Albom because i think that all people get criticized, and it should not be an issue for some people because they are African American. Race has nothing to do with the reason that Lebron was being criticized and it should not have even been brought into consideration. I think that Albom's most effective point in his argument is when he questioned if race was involved when Lebron was drafted right out of high school, or when he was voted most valuable player, or when anything good happened to him. If race was not involved then, why should it be involved when Lebron is being criticized.
