I'm struck when I meet a black man from Africa, and compare his attitudes and pride compared to a black man from the US. The African has an innate pride and self-worth the American black seems to lack. He wasn't descended from former slaves, and doesn't feel one bit inferior or in any way disadvantaged compared to me.

Z, It's about seeing racism where there have been patterns of racism. How many "patterns of racism" can you find? How many different kinds of racial gestures, expressions, and "code words" can you list? Are you going to see "racism" every time a black person steps on a banana peel? (Maybe the next time I have a black person over at my house, I'll make sure not to offer him or her a banana before dinner. Because you know, that "racist.") The bottom line is this: You repeatedly accuse me of denying that racism exists, but you are constantly seeing racism in incidents where there was none. All because it matches one of the infinite "patterns of racism" that you can Google at your convenience. Increasing racial sensitivity does not mean being hypersensitive to the trivial. Or in your case, only being hypersensitive when it fits YOUR agenda. Tenchusatsu
