Why isn't it called White Friday? The day after Thanksgiving is known as Black Friday and is really the kick off to the holiday shopping season, with the best deals available early in the morning. But does this day have a hidden meaning and a hidden agenda around the term "black?" Rev. Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson are outraged with this and have boycotted the day entirely. Their argument was based on the notion that heavy discounts on hot items was a direct result of the racism that is spewing from this country.
