VirginiaTam, this thread has made me realize how very deeply rooted racism against dark skinned people is in all parts of the Western world, and through Western colonization, in other parts of the world.

I read a significant amount of chapter I of Conrad's "Heart of Darkness". But I can't bring myself to continuing reading it right now.

And I intend to also read more about the subject of this thread some other time.

This is my last post on this thread.

Thanks to all who posted here.


Best wishes,

Azizi
