81117, Nah, Jalen was saying that's how he felt then.

He didn't say he feels like that now, he just doesn't regret thinking it and believes he thought it for understandable reasons. Both of which are true. He was a 17 year old sleeping in sweatshirts cuz there was no heat with a father who wasn't around looking at Hill's wealthy parents and Cosby sweaters. I don't blame him for saying it, nor do I blame Grant for writing an op-ed saying black men who go to Duke aren't Uncle Toms.
