Mark Cuban admits he’s a racist and a bigot?

By May 22, 2014Tech

Mark Cuban, billionaire owner of the Dallas Mavericks, makes some pretty aggressive comments as it relates to racism and bigotry…

In the interview with Inc, he addresses his disdain for Donald Sterling’s comments and his views on race–which we applaud.

However, then he made references to himself being both prejudice and bigoted to a certain degree; and stated that everyone is.

At Gadgent, we love Mark Cuban as an owner and more so as a self made billionaire, but to make this statement is kind of concerning.

All in all, we respect his honesty and his transparency. It’s tough to have these type of conversations when you live in a “glass house” like he does.

To wrap up, Mark did say that he is committed to ending prejudice. In his businesses, he makes it a point not to only call someone out for hateful acts, but to educate and assist in changing them.

“I’ll try to work with people…I’ll try to give them a chance to improve themselves” Cuban says. 

He doesn’t want to just throw someone away, the same way they are. He it truly tryng to make the world a better place.

You’ve got our support Mark…
