Bill Cosby vents once again

CHICAGO -- Bill Cosby went off on another tirade against the black community Thursday, telling a room full of activists at a
Rainbow/PUSH Coalition & Citizenship Education Fund's annual meeting that black children are running around not knowing how to read or write and "going nowhere."

In an Associated Press release dated July 1, Don Babwin said that the Rev. Jesse Jackson, founder and president of the education fund, defended the entertainer's statements. (Source.)
