We are Americans, not Polish-Americans, not German Americans and not African-Americans. Just plain Americans. And simple example of assimilation is black artists that sing country songs. They are not black country singers, just country singers. Country music is NOT a white thing; it's just an American thing.
Time to stop saying "a black man was killed by the police today" and just say "a man was killed by the police today..." The media and those wishing to separate and demean blacks, making them lower where they can control them tend to excuse their behavior when they violate rules, when they would not tolerate the same behavior from white folks. This is demeaning to blacks and makes them feel inferior. Expect the same behavior and ethics as you do with whites and they will shrug off the excuses, gain respect and become just as productive as the rest of America. To respect them is not to treat them special but to treat them with color blindness. And require the same from them. And some day all folks will treat blonds equal to other intelligent people.
As I read the 2nd paragraph I see that ALL of America's racism problems are caused by Black "excuses". Then they are magnified by "the Media". Or maybe the Media starts the problem before the excuses? Either way, I assume that "blondness" will not likely cause future racism. Or maybe that was humor or sarcasm?
