I found this article rather offensive about the current racial situation in the US. It is from almost a month ago and seems to have little basis in reality.

It really depends on the local community with respect to just how far race relations have come.

Whether you agree or disagree with her position the article does substantiate almost every point with links to other articles. There are about 40 links. I did not read them all.

Writing a position paper when I was in school required supporting an opinion with books or periodicals listed in the bibliography. I think it's easier to understand why someone reaches their conclusion when you can read the basis of that opinion. Linking makes this doable. Back in the day the professor had to trust the author. Reading all she links to takes a lot of time.

I'm getting tired researching, trying to find the truth but I think Tony Soprano's mother would tell me "Poor You".

I agree that race relations is a local problem that varies with respect to how far each community has come.
