Re: CD, do you know what racism is? justi?
Gee this sounds like a post......the only people exacerbating the situation is the 2 P's.....the professor and your President. I assume you meant "ameliorate".....the person furthest from exemplifying amelioration is the Professor.....
“YA, I’LL SPEAK WITH YOUR MAMA OUTSIDE!”
Very professorial..............

CD, do you know what racism is? justi?
What is socially and morally acceptable to the American public is what is in the best interest of same. Where we go wrong, as majority Americans. is failing to see where so many institutions are inherently racist. It doesn't have to be intentional.
Just like the National Reading Standards. Nothing there at all for the sub-41st percentile students, mostly inner-city / transient. Yet, ask any administrator or board member in any of 50 states. They all think everything is fine. No one wants to bother to change anything.
So, passively, institutions become racist.
Our great land stood behind slavery for a hundred years, and then segregation for another 100. It's been 45 years since LBJ signed the Civil Rights Act, and conditons are still so poor between the races that someone gets all excited and calls 911 when they see two black men together on a porch.
Those are the things minorities deal with every day, and majority citizens never even think about. Then when someone brings it up either they are called racists, or "crying wolf".
IMHO, you two are the best real high class, thinking bloggers. You shouldn't be taking advantage of this situation. You should try and emeliorate not exacerbate.

This is the truth. It is incredible how Blacks will yell racism when our behavior is the same for black or white. We want both to behave in a mature manner; a way that is socially acceptable to the American Culture. That would end the raceism junk.
