Now, GG... Settle down... I think that, considering our history, that what we collectively are going thru in regards to Obama is healthy... And understandable...
Yes, in a perfect world we wouldn't see race but it isn't a perfect world... We do still do see race... As well as gender... We have all grown up in an environment where race and gender do matter... Maybe it because of our history of blatent discrimination that it now matters...
And I'm sure that as uncomfortable it makes you, it makes many black people uncomfortable, as well... What we collectively are facing isn't a black thing... It's not a white thing... It's perhaps the the bumps that are natural as America tries it best to land Dr. King's dream... Were we don't see race...
I think it would be impossible to land that dream without the bumps... Dr. King said it wouldn't be easy... And it isn't...
So, just relax, GG, and enjoy what one day might be looked upon when America looked at itself, didn't like what it saw and made a major course correction in order to live more peacefully in a modern world... And when I speak of peace I don't mean just with other nations but with itself...
