Thread Name: BS: Americans, Racial Cowards?
Subject: RE: BS: Americans, Racial Cowards?
"To say race is not racist. To say black man or white man is racial.

"Every time someone says black man or white man it pokes a stick in someone else's eye.

"There is no reason to say it unless you want to infer superiority or inferiority." Sawz

Good grief. You really do not get it, do you. Your reality is far removed from mine. It "pokes a stick in someone's eye"? Why? In what way? You mean, until you mentioned it, they didn't know that they were Black? Until you told them, they didn't know they were White? There is nothing wroing with 'racial' (in the sense that we use race in any way but human.)

You still have 'infer' wrong, by the way. :)
