Did someone throw a tantrum? I missed that little news item. If these bureaucrats want to learn how to fight racism, they should look to us and see how we've done things. We have people of various ethnic origins in high offices. Look at Colin Powell, Condoleezza Rice, and Elaine Ciao. And they aren't tokens, there is diversity in the judiciary and legislature and on down. Now look at 'enlightened' Europe. Their high officials are all lily white. And the whiteness goes down to local police and fire departments, even to municipal services. They are very distrusting of dark skinned people. I really get a chuckle when Europe lectures us on our backward ways.
