    The author's a motivational speaker whose spiel wears thin in print. On the printed page, it‘s clearer when he substitutes race for class whenever it serves his underlying purpose. It probably plays better in front of the audience that dishonesty is so clearly meant for. There's information many people won't know in this diatribe - at least one tiny bit of it, anyway. Here, it’s used in the trite, hackneyed way motivational speakers do. The intended effect of this pitch is more likely cowing an audience to collect the speaking fee than presenting an uncomfortably broader perspective to people interested in new information. Lazy hackery in print.

      Yes, attacking your audiance seems to be more demotivational than motivational!
