Thanks sounds interesting, it's on my list.

Maybe if every white had to live as a black for a month
the world would be a much better place.

The man who did that said that just after two weeks (I think?) he had to quit or he would have to kill himself or a white person.

My Black friends over the years have told me racism is so horrible that a white person could never stand it.

And I know that to be true, which is why I just will not stand for it. Period. And that goes all the way back to my being a little kid. I always knew how wrong racism is and how horrible.

And I feel the same way about sexism and homophobia.

leave those poor gay folks alone to live their lives in peace. Good lord.

Put pure and simple, anyone who engages in racism, sexism or homophobia are embracing primitive destructive behavior.

that blows my mind... what did this guy do to deserve that treatment?

apparently nothing other than "sitting while black"

reminds me of the novel "Black Like Me"
