I'm just not understanding how there can be so many ignorant people in the world in this day and age. I've read so many questions and answers on yahoo (i'm a night owl); it's ridiculous. I read one person saying that blacks should be sent back to Africa in a boat with a hole in the bottom.....it's ridiculous. And at the same time, it's funny, because I think of all the things that America would not have right now, or the advances that America would not have made, had it NOT been for the blacks and asians and hispanics that are in this country right now. And no, I'm not talking about fried chicken or lo mein or tacos. I also look at the fact that a lot of the things that we have right now, we wouldn't have had it not been for whites. I was raised in a household where everybody was equal, and that was it. I find that remarkable given the fact that my mother lived through Jim Crow and saw MLK and had an uncle that worked on the Malcolm X murder. So, I ask you, why are people so ignorant?
