RAW DOGMA                                                                           written by Nkrumah Steward
Coca-Cola settles out of court for 1.5 Billion in racial discrimination lawsuit

1.5 Billion? What the fuck were they doing down in Atlanta, running slaves in from the Gold Coast? 1.5 Billion is an awful lot of money.

My God, I think you can buy Kenya for 1.5 billion.

I have to be honest, to get my name on the same list with the 2000 people that will share that money I would lose any semblance of dignity I might have.

You could call me “nigger”, “jungle bunny,” “tar baby“ “black piece of shit” I don’t care, call me whatever you’d like, hell I would even let you kick my ass for 1.5 billion. 

I know Coke is a big company and paying out in a lawsuit doesn't mean that you are guilty. Companies do it all the time but settling out of court for 1.5 billion to me sounds like the equivalent of settling out of court in a capital punishment case.

When someone does something like settle out of court for that kind of money I can’t help but think they must’ve been guilty as shit. The defendants must have actual film footage of somebody at Coke baling hay, singing “Song of the South” with a Kool-Aid grin wide as the sun on his face dressed in torn potato sack pants and bare foot while some district sales manager is whipping his back with a dry grass whip.

I just can't see paying out that kind of money if they didn't have a damn good case.
