       *A coalition of African American leaders is condemning New York Knicks coach Isiah Thomas for stating there is less of a sting when black men refer to black woman as a “bitch” as opposed to white men.       

       Thomas made the statement in a videotaped deposition played during his sexual harassment trial earlier this week.       

       African American female Knicks executive, Anucha Browne Sanders, is seeking $10 million in damages after being fired for accusing Thomas of harassment, her lawsuit states.        

       "Isiah Thomas owes black women a public apology,” writes the coalition, led by Najee Ali of Project Islamic Hope. “That type of statement and mindset that Thomas has is ridiculous and should be condemned. There is no distinction in disrespecting black women. It’s not acceptable for anyone to use vulgar and disparaging remarks when addressing black women."
