Red was da bomb. Green Mile, Shawshank, and other short stories that weren't made into movies portray the black men as "guilty".
Of course not to say that white folks aren't portrayed as evil or guilty ones. I'd say King shows the evil, or just down sides of his white characters more than any, though. A lot more, actually. I've read a lot of his stuff. He's a great author, and I don't see him as racial anything. He's just a great writer, and a couple stories of his just happened to show the black man as guilty.

I'm still in the middle of Dark Tower V. I'm looking for a job most of the time, so between that and class I can hardly sit down for a nice read.
