RE: Rascism directly related to diversity
I will admit I was playing the idealistic card when I talked about everyone thinking of people as humans first. But enough from me. At best I can only be philosophical when it comes to matters of race relations, and I'm only in control of my own personal reactions and behavior when faced with racial issues.
Somewhere in this discussion you mentioned that this was the worst poll that Omninerd ever put forth. I'm sure you realize that the purpose of these "polls" are not to prove anything, or cause anyone to come to any conclusions. They are only here to foster discussion, and I will say in that respect it certainly got your attention on a subject you seem to be most passionate about. In fact I would say you are quite "nerdy" about racial issues, and for that reason I would invite you to write a blog, coffee-shop or better yet, an article discussing some portion or issue pertaining to the racial issues you find in the United States or elsewhere. There are people like myself who really don't understand how black people 'feel' as you put it, and taking your views and eloquent words to the front page would reach a larger audience than having them buried in the comments somewhere.
