Redwitch, very well put, as is your talent. I went to college in the south. I had many opportunities to witness people speaking down to, and about, African Americans. I've witnessed it as lately as the last place we lived, in Michigan.
Even Obama has said he was followed through malls on more than one occasion--when he was a senator, no less.
People who think racism does not exist in this country and therefore should not be discussed are kidding themselves. There is always the next generation to educate.
