Texas sportscaster gives powerful speech shaming racist sports fans

"It's our parents and grandparents -- and our teachers and our coaches, too -- who teach us to hate."

This is Dale Hansen of WFAA-TV in Dallas/FortWorth. You might recognize him from the thoroughly on-point take he had about Michael Sam last year. Now he's back, with another powerful speech denouncing the "White Power" signs that appeared at a high school basketball game last week.

He speaks from the heart and from his own personal experiences, talking about personal growth and striving to do better. Sports news everywhere -- hell, all news -- needs more anchors like Dale Hansen.
