Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat Is Difficult For People Of Color
Yo, Mizzi...

I think I've had that dream myself... Anyway it sounded like something I might have had...

I should but I don't have much to add to this thread because race is something that I just no longer see unless I make myself see...

I think it was workin' as a jail house teacher in Richmond and then workin' in a drug rehab program where everyone, other than me, was black...

My apologies!!!

Yeah, I know that I should have something really radical to say here but I don't... But if I did, Rodney King beat me to it...

Hey, Mizz, I can't rightfully say what it's like to be a black woman here in Mudville but I can say that I might be the only white person who has ever been so closely intwined with black folks that hearin' these folks call me "nigga" made me proud...

That may not make much sense but I reckon it's a close to a "Can't we all get along" part of my life...

No, I haven't read this entire thread... I can't... About 15 minutes of computer is about all I can do with a pinched nerve and I have now used up my 15 minutes...
