Dallas Mavericks owner Mark Cuban, known for speaking freely and frequently about whatever he thinks, made headlines Wednesday with comments about race. In an interview with Inc. magazine, Cuban said the U.S. has “come a long way putting any type of bigotry behind us.” He went on to say: "I mean, we're all prejudiced in one way or another. If I see a black kid in a hoodie and it's late at night, I'm walking to the other side of the street. And if on that side of the street, there's a guy that has tattoos all over his face -- white guy, bald head, tattoos everywhere -- I'm walking back to the other side of the street. And the list goes on of stereotypes that we all live up to and are fearful of." (Photo by Jonathan Ferrey/Getty Images)
