If People would take Color..

out of every sentence, racism wouldn't exist.

But..
How dare I think there should be a White or Asian History month, or a White or Asian Channel on the TV..

How dare I?

Since we wanna cry equality but race to shout prejudice.

*sigh*

I agree with every word you have written here. In Australia, I see and hear terrible prejudice against our Asian citizens. sometimes, I just don't like humans...except for you and a few!!!

The differences between the races are not nearly as profound as the similarities. Just my 2 cents...

Or as I would agree with Naut, or worse if we go back farther.

Sadly animals betray the same instincts put a white chicken

in with a pen of brown and they will try to bully it.

Of course if it is a cockerel it makes a difference.

Your clarification of the terms makes sense to me.

Seeing as we are none of us ideal nor perfect,

it is helpful to have such a clear-cut definition as a mirror in which to see ourselves, and make some conscious choices about what blemishes we wear, and what we will do about them.
