I didn't downvote him, but even if Brubeck's career was benefited "MASSIVELY from being white", this has absolutely nothing to do with whether he was a good human being or took a stand against racism.
- TheAmazingIdiot 14y agoSometimes being a privileged position allows one to do tremendous things. As Brubeck did countless times.
- csallen 14y agoYou missed the last part of his point, which was that Brubeck was ashamed of that fact, implying that he wished for a world with more racial equality, and thus bolstering the case that he was a good human being.
- chadzawistowski 14y agoAh, I had interpreted that to mean that he was ashamed of his ancestry.
